WALKER WITHDRAWS
 FROM THE RACE
On Account of III Health Fayetteville Attorney Will Not Seek Presidency of Convention

Little Rock, Nov. I1.-J Vol Walk CT of Fayetteville, who announced that he would be a candidate for president of the constitutional convention, when it convenes a week from tomorrow, yesterday telegraphed to his brother, Jack Walker, collector of internal rev. enue, saying that his health will not permit his making the race. MT. Walker, who is at Battle Creek, Mich, says that while he is improving in health his physical condition is such that he will not be able to be in Little Rock on November 19. Mr. Walker is one of the three delegates from Washington county. Mr. Walker wir- cd his brother as follows:
 Mir. Walkers Telegram. ITO Delegates Arkansas Constitution
 al Convention:
 "Gentlemen: Shortly after the cleo tion in June I made formal announce ment of my candidacy for president of the constitutional convention, called to meet on November 19, 1917.
 Since near the middle of July I have been suffering from stomach trouble, which has made such en- croachments upon my health and strength that, acting upon the advice of my physician I came here for treatment at the Battle Creek sani- tarium with the hope and expectation of deriving such benefits as would enable me to be present at the open ing of the convention.
 T have been able to sit up only part of each day for the last 12 days and am today told by the doctors in charge that while they find no es- pecially alarming symptoms, my phys ical condition is such that it will not be possible for me to be in Little Rock on November 19
 Ut therefore becomes imperative that I make immediate announcement of my inability to be present at the meeting of the convention and to declare my withdrawal from the con- test for the president of that body.
 "I avail myself of this opportunity to acknowledge the very courteous consideration you have shown, me, and to extend to all my friends my sheer est thanks for their very earnest and efficient efforts in my behalf, coupled with my deepest regrets because of any annoyance or embarrassment my course may entail upon them.
 Very respectfully,
 "J V. Walker"
