vention getting beyond control. Strange
ly enough the Old Guard leaders would
welcome Col. Roosevelt at this time AS
they would prefer to deal with him di-
rectly rather than through representa-
tives, and some Of them argue that if he
could be induced TO come here a union
Of the Republicans and Progressives
would be assured.
The Platform
Although the disposition among Re-
publican leaders is to leave decision
on the platform TO the convention it
self considerations was given today
TO outstanding features. The advance
proposition hat characterized other
convention mas been lacking, but SEN
ators Lodge. Borah, Sutherland and
many others in the Senate and House
have had suggestions under consider
alton for many weeks. These prob
ably will form the bases for discus
sion in the committee on resolutions
when it gets at work. with the conven-
ton as the final judge.
Fight for Suffrage
Every effort will be made in the
platform, if the suggestions are fol-
lowed, to incorporate some Progress
sive party ideas. A recall plank
probably will not be approved. but
strong fight will be made for an in
dorsement of woman suffrage
In what the three senators have done
the first thought has been to give
greatest prominence to Americanism.
Senator Sutherland has gone so far as
to suggest this word should be used
as a key to the whole superstructure,
all other declarations being built
around ringing announcement in
favor of American nationalism.

No Hope for Statement

All talk Of demanding a pre- conven-
ton statement from Justice Hughes as
a condition Of his nomination has prac-
tically been abandoned. 1t was being
talked of last night but today it has
been eliminated from the discussions.
1t is generally agreed that the justice
will continue to preserve his silence
while he occupies a place on the SUI
preme bench, but that if nominated he
will Immediately make a satisfactory
statement Of his position on national
questions which will be an issue in the
campaign
In discouraging proposals oe 4 pre-
nomination statement from Justice
Hughes, his supporters point on. that
so far as his position on national is
sues is concerned, addresses made be-
fore he went on the bench, show him
to be for preparedness and sound, from
a party point of view. on all of the
more important issues. It is being ar
gued that lack of information regard
ing Mr.. Hughes declarations is who'll
ly responsible for the charge that he is
a mystery candidate
