SAN FRANCISCO. June 23.-The
democratic convention apparently
faces a deadlock. Leaders declared
today that Palmer and Cox forces
would control more than 400 votes
apiece with McAdoo not figuring and
that a compromise between them will
be out of the question. With McAdoo
in it, making three leaders instead OF
two, the compromise would more
easily have been arranged, it was
argued.
As a result of this situation, dark
horse talk is increasing. Vice-pres-
ident Marshall, ambassador Davis and
Senator owen were most prominently
mentioned. The expected deadlock,
however, probably will not carry the
convention over the week end.
