to him.

My plan," he said in an interview
is to concentrate the Progressive
fight on a. few states where there is
the best chance to elect presidential
electors. We would not have a presi-
Dental candidate, and these cleo
tors could swing to the candidate
ready to make the most concessions to
Progressives. If neither side conced-
ed enough and If we held the balance
of power in the electoral college, we
could then swing the election of presi-
