ator Willard Salisbury of Delaware

Sullivan Boom on Trial Today.
Roger C. Sullivan's friends and enc
mics will go to a showdown over his
vice-presidential candidacy in caucus
of the Illinois delegation today.
Mr.. Sullivan issued call for the
caucus following a conference of his
chief lieutenants. While his announce
ment contained nothing beyond a state
ment that the vice-presidential nomi-
nee would he discussed, 1t was learned
that the purpose is to have a roll call
on an Endorsement of his candidacy.
May Stop Candidacy.
After the Sullivan supporters and OPP
ponents are placed on record Mr.. Sulli-
van is expected to announce his refusal
to allow his name to be placed in nomi
nation before the convention. He will
ask his friends to vote for the renomi-
nation of Vice-President Marshall.
Mr.. Sullivan thought of issuing
statement declaring himself out of the
running. Some of his friends, however.
insisted that in view of the assertions
of Governor Dunno, Senator Lewis and
former Mayor Carter II. Harrison that
from 20 to % members of the delega-
ton were hostile to his vice-presiden-
tial aspirations there should be a show
down.
May Ask Marshall o. X.
There was some talk that Mr.. Sulli-
van might announce his withdrawal at
the beginning of today's caucus and
ask a unanimous Endorsement of Vice
President Marshall. His supporters,
however, were so anxious for a test
roll call that it was thought more prob
able that an issue would be made of
the Sullivan candidacy.
Governor Dunno, who has declared
himself for the denomination of Vice
President Marshall but is for Senator
Lewis if any Illinoisan is to be con-
sidered, will present the latter's name
to the caucus if an opportunity is
offered.
