by Hugh Baillie, United Press Staff
CONSEQUENTLY
SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.-Candi-
dates row was being put in shape to-
day for the reception OF aspirants for
the democratic presidential nomina-
ton who will be on the ground direct
ing their fights. .--..
Attorney General A Mitchell Pal
mer, Senator Robert Owen, of Okla
homa; Senator G. N. Hitchcock, Ne
braska; Senator Carter Glass, Virgin
ia, and possibly Governor Cox, of Ohio,
are expected here.
Candidates row will be divided be-
tween the Palace and St Francis ho-
tells. Early indications are there will
be as much doing along the row as at
the republican convention in Chicago.
Palmer apparently will take the lead
staging spectacular events to attract
crowds to his headquarters. His sup
porters here are planning big demon
STATIONS in his honor. Palmer cam
paign posters were first to make their
appearance. They bear near life sized
photos of the attorney general with
heavy law book in one hand. One
finger of the other hand is raised
threateningly. Mitchell Palmer,
fighting Quaker, laying down law" the
inscription on these posters reads.
Palmer's hackers are claiming more
than 500 votes for him on the first
ballot and predict he will make such
strong showing a landslide will de-
velop on subsequent ballots.
There is little opposition to Palmer
pending arrival of W, j. Bryan, who
is expected to lead drive against the
administration candidates, especially
Palmer and Hitchcock and against
Homer Cummings, chairman OF the
democratic national committee, if his
boom holds up.
w. G. McAdoo's friends are still I'M
decided what course to take regarding
placing mis- name before the conven-
ton Plans for putting him in nomi-
nation have not been abandoned, so
far as known here.
