DELEGATES MUST
/HAVE FULL VOTE
Democratic Subcommittee De-
MES Seats on Convention Floor
to Fractional Representatives.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 2o.-After
several days OF wrestling with the
problem. the Democratic sub-commit-
tee on seating the delegates yesterday
agreed that seats on the moor would
be assigned only to those delegates
who have q full vote.
sIt was a Jig-saw puzzle" said
Treasurer Mash. head OF the sub-com-
mittee. "There are 1902 seats on the
noor, or one to each vote in the con-
vention. Some OF the delegates have
half q vote and some have but a third
OF . vote. Those having a full vote
will be seated and issued delegates
badges. The delegates who have spe-
cisl votes will have TO decide them
selves as to which one OF the fraction
shall sit on the moor and the surplus
will be seated with the alternates or
among the guests. We have agreed
that this 10 the only manner in which
the situation can be met"
The seating OF the deleg ations as to
location on the noor has not been de-
tsymined, Mr.. Marsh stated.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 26.-Never

the exact relation the new electorate
will bear to the whole body OF the

day, In estimating that about four
hundred women would exert an influ-

President, that the women would ag-
xreEate one-tenth OF the delegates. j

this did not state the real signifi-

tanning the womens point OF view,
whether the problems are distinctly
those in which women are most In

CONTROL OF SUGAR
BY GOVERNMENT
SUFFICIENT SUPPLY SAID TO BE
ON HAND FOR ALL IMME-
DATE NEEDS.
DETAILS ARE GIVEN OUT
All Of Product viii Be Rationed by a
Committee Which viii Be Respon-
slbIe to the Department Of
Justice.

Wasnington.-The entire United
States will shortly be under sugar
ationing system very similar to that
n effect during tho world war. De-
tails OF the proposed system were
made public by A. w. Riley, special
assistant to the attorney general, who
will he in charge of the work.
In announcing the details of the
plan to be adopted Mr.. Riley asserted
that placing the country on rations
is preventative rather than curative
and there is sufficient sugar either on
hand or enroute to the United States
to care for immediate needs and there
is no danger Of a famine If ordinary
economy is observed by all consumers.
Under the system worked out by Mr..
Riley every bit of sugar will be ra-
toned to the various consumers
through a distributing committee OF
which he will be the chairman. Each
member of the committee will be re-
sponsible to the department of JUS
tice through Riley for an equitable
distribution OF the sugar allotted to
the consumer he represents and in
that way it is expected that any par
TALLY will be eliminated.
The committee will consist of one
representative eacn from producers,
refiners, Gamers, preservers, candy
makers, soft drink makers, bakers,
wholesalers, retailers, jobbers and
every other industry using any great
amount of sugar. Mr.. Riley will be
the personal representative on the
committee of the housewife and the
hotels.
Headquarters Of the committee will
be established in New York Each OF
the industries to be represented on
the committee will be asked to name
several representatives in whom they
have confidence AMI whose decisions
they will agree to abide by From
the several named the department OF
Justice will select one. In the event
there is any hesitancy on The part OF
any industry to name representative
or refusal, a representative for that
industry will be arbitrarily named.
The essential Industries, including
the home Gamer, preservers. makers
and others, will be taken care of first
and the surplus after these are taken
care of, will be allotted to the So
called non-essential industries,
Under the plan worked out all the
available sugar will be figured out
and equitably distributed-on paper
to the industries to the minimum
amount it is estimated that will be
necessary for the remainder Of the
year. The representatives of each in
dustry will be made responsible for
the equitable distribution, amount al
lottede to the individual consumer.

Possibility Of the abandon
ment of the Spa conference between
representatives of the allied govern
ments and Germany is being discussed
in European capitals.
The success of the Independent So
cialists and the Conservatives in the
German elections leads to the belief
in France that Germany is less than
ever inclined to carry out the treaty.
This belief, with the prospect that
Giovanni Giolitti, former Italian pre-.
mier, will form new ministry in that
country, is said to have moved Pre-
mier Millerand of France to oppose
any further yielding on the question
of the German indemnity, such as
might be expected to result from the
Spa meeting. 1t is recalled that
Signor Giolitti opposed sItaliys en-
trance into the war and it is said hie
foreign policy includes resumption of
full relations with Germany
Premier Millerand is said to feel he
might hazard his position if the Spa
conference were held, and belief is
expressed here THAT Signor Giolitti
may decline to attend the meeting.
