ident Wilson in his own powerful
phraseology.
The resolutions committee. which
will deliberate on the platform and
recommend 1t to the convention will
be headed by Senator Stone, OF Mis-
souri,, chairman of the senate foreign
relations committee, according to
present plans.
There developed today some oppo-
sition to Senator Stone, because OF
his pronounced disagreement with the
presidents foreign policy in the Ger
man submarine dispute, but this was
regarded as negligible.
Senator Walsh of Montana, was In
clined to claim the first place on the
resolutions committee but the leaders
planned to give the place to the Mis-
souri, senator.
Conferences are Held.
Senators Stone, Walsh, Reed of Mis-
souri,, Hollis of New Hampshire. and
Representative Carter Glass OF Viz
ginia, all of whom considered the plat
form devised in Washington, held de-
sultory conferences on the document
today. Senator Stone brought to st.
Louis a copy of the tentative draft
submitted to the president, but today's
conferences were recognized to be OF
little avail pending the arrival OF the
presidents final draft.
The platform plans particularly put
up to President Wilson were those
dealing with the foreign situation and

can situation.
Outside of these issues, the matter
treated in the platform will be dealt
with very briefly.
Only three issues promise to devel-
op a fight in the resolutions COM
mittee They are national prohibition,
woman suffrage and the Philippine pol
ity.
Rule Out Suffrage.
The first two will not be included in
the platform under the carefully laid
plans Of the leaders, although there
was deep apprehension today as to the
attitude to be taken on this matter by
William Jennings Bryan when he ar.
rives, simultaneously with the presi-
dents platoon on Tuesday.
The leaders are prepared to make
every effort to placate the former
secretary of state, and they are op-
timistic as to the outcome. He Is ex,
pected to make some effort to have the
prohibition and suffrage planks includ'
ed in the declarations of faith. Wheth-
er Bryan will take any active part in
the deliberations of the resolutions
committee or the convention itself is
doubtful. He is not a delegate, and
would have to have a proxy of both
a delegate and an alternate to secure a
place.

Hughes in accepting the Republican
presidential nomination.
Mr. Foulke said that, in his opinion,
Colonel Roosevelt would largely de-
termine whether Justice Hughes was
to receive Progressive support in the
coming campaign.
II believe If Colonel Roosevelt ap-
proves of the Hughes candidacy the
rank and file of his party will be con-
tent to abide by his decision, he said.
1T is not at all certain, however that
Colonel Roosevelt will endorse the
action of the Republican national con-
vention
Referred to Letter.
Mr. Foulke referred to a letter he
had written on May Is to George w.
Perkins, of the Progressive national
committee, in which he said:
1T seems to be quite probable that
Hughes may be the nominee of the
Republican convention. 1t
would seem to me that our convention
ought to act instantly If it should
learn of Hughes nomination =
and should Immediately nominate
Roosevelt by reclamation and leave
with him the determination of the
question, whether, after further
knowledge of Justice Hughes inten-
tons, he should support him or run
himself upon the Progressive ticket
If we should find ourselves confronted
with the emergency of Hughes nomi-
nationa and importance of instantan-
eous action before he shall have de-
clared his future policy seem to me
vital. and think Mr.. Roosevelt himself
would be better qualified later on, to
do what circumstances demand, than
the Progressive convention would be
TO take final action"

Progressive leaders would be we'll
pleased to have Colonel Roosevelt ac-
cept the Progressive nomination for
president is indicated by the following

In the Indiana delegation every
man in every district insists on main

THINGS BOYS LEARN
ON SUMMER OUTING

When peacock sheds it's feathers
was one of the things that the boys
learned on the Y. NJ. c. A. summer
camping trip last year.
This was found by J. J. Somerville
this morning when he presented a
short list of questions to several Of
the boys who attended the camp last
year, on what they learned at camp.
How possums carry their young in
sack like the kangaroo was another
things that the youngsters learned.
Several of the boys had never seen
teaches, and what chiggers are was
impressed firmly upon the minds of
several.
The campfire with it's stories and
eats was voted the favorite passtime,
although 1t was closely seconded by
athletics of various kinds.
Ten boys have signed for this years
