JOHNSON SPEAKS AT MEETING

CHICAGO, June 8 (by Associated Press Senator Hiram Johnson, ad- dressing a mass meeting last night attended by many delegates to the convention, pleaded for what he called the head up and eyes open" policy defining the two big issues. He said the first was the cost of living, which had to be coped with not only by a new law but by an unshrinking admin istration. The second was the League of Nations, and he emphasized his stand against the Versailles covenant, saying "the Republican party must take stand against it and there can be no hiding or skulking behind an issue of this magnitude"
 Johnson rapped as ''servile press" profiteers those who would make the Republican party the party of the few who paid tribute to them. Borah, who also spoke later, referred to John, son as the next president.

DEMPSEY TRIAL COMMENCES AT
 FRISCO TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO, June (by As sociated Press).-The trial of Jack Dempsey, heavyweight boxer, charged with draft evasion, was opened here today before Judge Dooling. Many members of the American Legion were present.
 The draft evasion charges against William H. (Jack) Dempsey, heavy weight champion boxer of the world. and Jack Kearns, his manager, were filed here in the United States district court. The statute covering them carries a maximum sentence of three years and $2,O00 fine in Dempsey's case of a conviction. There are two charges resting against him, one ac l tual draft evasion and the other con- spiracy to effect such evasion. The Kearns case is covered only by the latter charge.
 On the direct evasion charge Demp- sey can be given one and on the con spiracy charge two years and $2,000 fine
 The indictments were returned Feb ruary 27 following statements made to the federal grand jury by Maxine Wayne Dempsey, divorced wife of the pugilist, that he sought her sworn tes- timony as to her dependency on him in order to avoid military service, and had given such testimony against her will. Subsequently she retracted her charges in signed affidavit submitted ! to the United States district attor- ney's office here, but despite, such re- traction the grand jury returned the indictments
 The Dempseys were married in Salt Lake City, Utah. Following the di- vorce Mrs. Dempsey was employed in a dance hall in Wells, Nevada, and made her charges from that place. Dempsey was charged with having falsely sworn that his father, mother, widowed sister and her two children were dependent upon him and that he had contributed $20 month each to their support during 1917 and that he had lived with his wife for IS months before being calledlup before the draft board.
 Kearns' part was alleged to have been the coaching of Dempsey in his supposed act of draft evasion. Both denied emphatically that they sought such evasion and introduced state ments from draft board officials to 1 substantiate their claims.

Real leaders of bygone days find grim satlscfaction in referring to charges of bOsslsm so often hurled in former conventions, asking if it would not be better to be led than lost.
 The situation presents an opnor tunity for some shrewd leader to ster forward at the psychological moment and invite stampede.
 Nobody has any idea of the strength any of the candidates will develop on the first ballot, and none of the cam palgn managers has been able to SC strengthen his lines to approach the test vote with confidence. @
 Dark horse talk is still in the back ground, and the suggestion recurs that it might be wiser to put UT some man not involved ir the cam pafgn expenses, with the names ot Hughes and Coolidge most promin nently advanced. Senator Borah said he would regard Hughes as very for mfdable if the dark horse stage was reached.

Wood delegates an nounced they would carry the fight te the credentials committee and the convention, but Johnson told the ma held that Ballaine's testimony to the hopes of being committeeman if the Lowden delegates were seated.
 The refusal of Judge Wallace Nc Cament, one of Oregon's ten delegates 1 to vote for Johnson in accordance witt | the primary vote, has developed an un precedented problem involving adher ence to or freedom from instruction of all primary chosen delegates. I is expected this problem will be tn, cause of spirited and protracted figh on the first ballot McCammant gay, notice he was Wood supporter be fore the primary, and says he is no bound by the result of the vote.
