CHAIRMAN M'COMBS
INVITES BULL MOOSE
Gives Pressing Invitation to
Colby and Others to Join
Democrats
By Lowell Mellett.

Omitted Press staff correspondent.)
st. Louis, Mo-, June 13.-Democratie
National Chairman William. F. Me.
Combs wired Bainbridge Colby, of New
YORK, an invitation to Join the demo-
cratic party. His action was based on
Colby's reputation Of Roosevelt, for
whom he had made the nominating
speech in the progressive convention
at Chicago Saturday.
McCcmbs action was the most strik-
ing development to date of the demo-
cratic leaders efforts to find way to
kidnap the four million votes of the
progIl ssive party which they consider
orphaned by Roosevelt Is decision not to
be their candidate as outlined by the
United Press yesterday.
The telegram read:
"Blinbridge Colony, Nassau street,
New York:
~ have read your statement. 1t ap-
pears that Colonel Roosevelt has at
tempted to send his former enthusiastic
followers stumbling along to destruc-
ton. The progressive democracy cor
dially and sincerely offers them safety.
(Sigred) William F. McCombs, chair
man democratic national committee"
MaCombs phrase, stumbling
along was adapted from Colby IS
statement of yesterday. Colby said
among other things:
" The progressives have sustained a
headon collision with their leader. The
fact is manifest. He is to look the
situation over and decide what to do,
but We. too, will look the field over and
determine what we will do"
McCombs said today he expects to see
men IKE Colby who were prominent in
the progressive convention declare for
Wilson soon. He hinted the democratic
platform may contain much to appeal
to pIogressives. He refused to com.
ment on reports that some of the con
servative democratic leaders had at.
tempted to check the efforts to win
over the progressives.
A national child labor law and recog.
milton Of the woman suffrage movement
may be two of the leading planks in
the democratic platform designed tC
catch progressive votes.
The child labor plank is to be the
principal feature of the social vel
fare" clauses. Those urging hisplank
desire it to show progressives that the
| democratic party is willing to abandon
] its historic states stand on this subject.
A canvass of strength progressive,
democrats claim, has shown that south
ern democrats here have not sufficient
strength to block this plank.
Opposition to the progressive-wooing
program was voiced today by Senator
Hardwick of Georgia, one of the con-
servative group in the senate.
"Ie we win, wen win as democrats
on historic democratic issues" said
Hardwiek. "The so.called progressives,
believe, will get checked up short if
they attempt to override states rights
on child labor and similar measures. "
