Democrats Make Changes
in National Committee
(By Associated Press)

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Sept. 90
Decentralization of campaign work
which would give the north, west and
south an equal voice with the east
was one of the big questions to come
before the executive committee of the
Democratic national committee, which
opened a twoday conference here to-
day.
The plan was said virtually to be
assured of adoption. 1t contemplates
the division of the country into four
zones as follows; Eastern to include
New England and the middle Atlantic
states with headqua rters in New
York; southern, including the south
ern states, with headquarters in
Washington; middle western, includ-
ing the central states with headquar-
tiers probably in Butte, Mont, and the
western zone, comprising the Pacific
coast and the southwest, with hea d.
quarters in Seattle or Portland.
Homer S. Cummins, chairman of the
committee, was said to favor the plan.

yacht catches fire and the entire party
is forced to abandon it. After being
in the life boat for many hours they
are picked up by a tramp steamer
going to Cuba. The captain of the
steamer falls in love with Tessa and

use in case she should ever need a
friend. This card more than a year
later is found in Tessa's purse after
she has been struck down by a truck.
And at the hospital they call up Cap

Tessa's bedside.
Here she again meets Peter, who
tries to make her love him. She tells
him that this is impossible, as she

Barban and Grohe, in classic dances,

features of the new bill which is now
playing at the Murray for the last
half. The scenic environments are
elaborate and appropriate for each
dance, and while this pair may not
produce storms Of applause from the
average vaudeville audience, who ap-
parently prefer comedy efforts, they
must be credited with presenting a
decidedly artistic Offering. Bernard

seem to have solved the wants of their
audiences, for they were warmly ap
plauded. Dedi Veldie and company
