GEORGIA CONTEST
TEST OF COMMITTEE
Must Decide Between Old
Guard and Hughes Factions
-Spe HitchcOck's Hand.
WATCH ALABAMA'S CASE

cnicAoo. May 3i.-o' the sIxty-two
contests which the National Committee
will meet a. pass upon tomorrow only
me IL regarded as having any possible
affects the variour candidates. This IL
the Georgia contest. involving seventeen
seats.
It's Importance lies In the fact that
4. seems to afford "a chance for the men,
t-rs ~ the committee to commit them
selve definitely with respect to their
attitude toward the Hughes movement.
one delegation Is headed by National
the other by Henry Blum. an eS-rstionai
committeeman. VINO has also with him
state Chairman Walter johnson. The
Jackson delegates are supposed to have
contestants are for Hughes.
so FAR rs evidence goes this Georgia
case In like a lot OF the contests four
years aeo--it is really for the ruling
faction In the committee to decide which
set " VIII recognize.
Frank II. Hitchcock II supposed 20
have had a hand IN this Georgia matter
AZ any rate, he was one OF thos. who
pointed our what a good chance II would
he for the committee TO show how u
felt toward Mr.. Hughes.
Not in twenty years have there been
so few contests for the cor; mittee to
take up rs a preliminary TO a Repub-
lean convention. Nevertheless the con-
tests probably vii! keep the committee
busy tomorrow. Friday and Saturday.
Most OF them Involve the control OF
STATE organizations. There are no in
structed delegates whose seats are az
fected. Everybody Is uninstructed from
the south this year. and that IL where
the contests chiefly come from.
Some interest ttache TO the Ala
hama contest. because of her place on
the roll. Alabama can yield her place
ut the head Of the list 10 one OF the
states presenting a favorite ron. The
seats Of National Committeeman Parker
and ave other delegates are contested
IN this case. II j. understood that n.
Parker people have agreed TO give way
10 New YORK In order to allow Justice
HugheS's name 20 be presented.
An attempt has been made 10 con-
test the entire deleg alton from North
Carolina, Involving twenty-one seats.
but unless the committee agrees to vaIy.
the rule under which notice OF a coutes,
must bc filed a. least twenty days be-
fore The convention. the contestants viii
have M chance 10 present their cases
They can. however, carry them to the
floor OF the convention.
