when a report filtered through the

more than passive support of the
Harding campaign had been offered
by the general.

The report that the general had
enlisted Fundamentally in the Hard

was learned that he was planning to
call on Senator Harding at the lat

next few weeks.
Gen. Wood would not admit that
his call on Chairman Hays had any
political significance. He said he was

this subject under such important
auspices the country will hear for
years. With Bryan. Bourke Cochran,
Senator Walsh of Montana and Capt.
Hobson, the principal speakers, the
delegates and other auditors enjoyed
the give and-take according to their
views upon the subject.
The failure of the platform to speak
at all upon the liquor question was
the result of the embarrassing situa-
tion in which the committee found
itself. 1t was felt that President Will
son favored a wine and beer plank
and they could not bring in Bryan's
dry plank without seeming to over
ride him. "
