The argument for Pan-American-

dress. The congressman heard 1t
ct first in silence, but when the
president came to the portion re-
affirming the Monroe doctrine, and
in particular to the phrase where
he enunciated the equality and in.
dependence OF all American nations,
there was a vigorous momentary
outburst Of handclapping.
The pronounciamento, I'VE will
aid and befriend Mexico. but will
not coerce her." also evoked brief
round OF applause. For the most

Of the national committees annual
meeting and the committees from
cities seeking the convention, were
here as usual.
President Wilson received the
committee in body at the White
House. His address was regarded
as the Democratic keynote for the
forthcoming contest. That the pres
ident had no preference regarding
the time or place for holding the
convention, was officially an
nounced.
'rhe White House reception pre-
ceded the presidents appearance
before the joint session OF the SEN
ate and the house to deliver his an
nual message to congress. There
was much verbal speculation re-
garding the alleged movement to
oust william r. McCoombs. of New
York. as chairman. Friends OF Fred
B. Lynch. OF Minnesota. were said
to be- active in trying TO have him
succeed McCoombs. Party leaders
insisted the rumors were without
foundation. Among the cities bid
ding for the convention were Chi
cago. st. Louis. Dallas. San Fran
cisco and Omaha. Lengthy argu
ments and pyrotechnics were sched
uled.
Called to order 6. Il o'clock al
the new Willard hotel by Chairman
McCoombs. the morning session was
largely routine.
There are eight vacancies on the
committee. In two OF these there
were contests. from Oregon and
Kentucky Trey woodson and Gen
W. u. Haldeman were the contest

novel tangies. Woodson was chosen
by the Kentucky state committee.
At last summers state convention
Gen. Haldeman was named national
committeeman. A similar family
quarrel was the Oregon contest.
King was selected by the Oregon
state committee. and In last years

chosen by the Democratic voters.
