WILSON TOLD
.TREATY.BISSUE
Backing Up Of His Stand to
Be Chief Plank Of
Democrats.

President Wilson Is in constant
touch with Democratic party de-
yelopments and will direct from
Washington much of the maneuver-
ing at the San Francisco convention.
The thoroughness Of the Presi-
dents knowledge of the political
situation and his determination to
keep a close hand upon the affairs
of the party was revealed yester-
day by Homer S. Cummings. chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee. who lunched at the
White House., preparatory to his
departure for San Francisco today.
As the result of his conference
with the President. Cummings pre-
dicted that ratification OF the treaty
. and the covenant of the league Of
nations. with no substantial changes
and in the form the President de-
sired. would be made the chief plank
in the Democratic platform.
Won't be "Love Feast,
He anticipated no platform SQUAD
BILE. Cummings said. although he
acknowledged that the San Fran
cisco meeting could hardly be a
love feast"
Cummings visit to the White
House was for the immediate pur-
pose of discussing with the Presi-
dent the convention keynote speech
the Democratic chairman will de-
liver. The President has had a
copy of the address for several
days and. according to Cummings,
has approved it heartily. The speech,
1t is understood. will be a eulogy
of the Wilson administration and
a complete endorsement of the
Presidents position on the treaty
and the League.
The Preside ut and Cummings also
discussed the campaign expenditure
exposure and its probable effect
upon the Republican, party. The
President. Cummings said. was in
a particularly good humor. and
after luncheon insisted upon seeing
a movie" in the White House
East Room.
Considers G. o. r. In Hole.
The President believes the expen-
ditures invcsti alton has put the
Republicans IN serious predica-
ment. Cummings himself thinks the
Chicago convention will wind up in
definite split and the formation of
a. third party. Democratic chances
of victory. he confidently asserted.
were never brighter. On the sub
ever. Cummings was discreetly
mum. except to eliminate himself
entirely from consideration.
