Choice of Committee Head
as Successor to C. D. HiIIes
to Be Topic of Conference

NEW YORK. June 13.-One of the
first developments of the day at Mr.,
Hughes headquarters was an announce
ment by Lafayette B. Gleason, secretary
of the republican national convention
and also of the New York state repub-
lican committee, which indicated that
it will be several days yet before any
decision is reached on the question Of
the man who is to succeed Charles D..
Hilles as chairman of the republican
national committee. Mr.. Gleason said
that a subcommittee of the national
committee would 'in few days call
on the nominee to discuss the matter.
Several names were under considera-
ton. but one mans guess was as good
as another. he said, as to who would
be selected.
Another development was an an
nouncement from the candidates head
quarters that moving pictures would be
employed to aid his campaign. 1t is
planned to throw on the screens
throughout the country pictures of Mr..
Hughes, ''in order that the people may
again become familiar with Charles Z.
Hughes because he has for so long a
time been virtually out of public life"
The screens will also display impor-
tant passages from Mr.. Hughes tele-
gram to the national convention ac-
cepting the nomination.

BY EARL GOODWIN.

ST. LOUIS, June 13.-There Is an
even chance that the democratic plat
form will contain a suffrage plank this
time. II not, then there are some good
hard common sense politicians around
st. Louis right now who can figure out
that the election will be lost to the
democrats by means of Women's votes.
Regardless of all the noise and furore
and campaign smoke being stirred up
already on other, issues large and
small. there are men-mind you. not
women--who are going to put it
squarely up to the democratic party,
southern conservatives and all, that the
time for action on votes for women has
come.
Illinois. Kansas, Nevada. Oregon.
Washington. Arizona, California, Idaho.
Montana and Wyoming have ninety-six
valuable votes in that relic of history,

these states that democratic politicians
interested in suffrage will turn when
they argue the point with the chaps

In other states there will be fight

will take q leading part. No wonder

feel that democracy must recognize
