 Tn the course of his talk with the correspondent today. the general said;
 At the beginning of the revolution, communicated my adhesion to the Agua Prieta plan. Continued unjus- tified attacks on individual guaran- tees and property right by Carranza chiefs in the zone under my com movement. The cause did not disap- pear. The campaign eXigencies and the use of 1000 men. together with the menace that the CarranZa forces would invade my territory, obliged me to exact from the oil companies pay ment of 100000 pesos on condition that I was able to defend the ports of departure.
 'I believe peace is here because the past has taught us lesson. I have come here to reiterate my adherence to the president and to consult with the secretary of war on military mat ters. My principal desire is to see peace brought to the country. think all good Mexicans should rut aside their differences and unite to aid the country"

 Telegraphing to the heads of the 16 railroad brotherhoods several hours before the national lawmakers ended their session. the president said it must be evident to all that the dominating motive which has ac- tuated the congress is political rath- CT than lofty purposes to serve the public welfare"
 The presidents message was in re- ply to the one from the brotherhood officials protesting against the ad- journment of congress. MT. Wilson said that ''in the light of the record of the present congress I have no reason whatever. to hope its contin- uance in session would result in con structive measures for the relief of conditions to which you call atten- tion"
 The president added that ''the pro- tracted delay in dealing with the problem of the railroads, the prob. lem of the government owned mer- chant marine and other similar ur- gent matters has resulted in unnec. essary burdens upon the public treasury and ultimately in legisla' tion so unsatisfactory that I could accept it, if al all, only because I de- spaireG of anything better

WASHINGTON, June 5-Senator gently indorsed by his colleagues, Senator Penrose, for the Republican nomination for president, came out tonight for Governor Sproule.
 Senator Knox also formally an- nounced that he would not attend the Republican national convention, to which he had been chosen as a dele gate at large from Pennsylvania, be- cause of private business" His proxy he said would be held by Judge A. R. Reed, of Pittsburgh.
 The following statement was issued by the Pennsylvania senator:
 'I am sorry that private business keeps me away from the Chicago con vention, especially as 1 would like to cast my vote for Governor Sproule. My proxy, however. will be in good hands, Judge A. R. Reed of Pitts burgh, whose views on this subject are the same as mine.
 Governor Sproule's Republicanism admirably fits him for the highest of flee in the country. There can be no question as to his ability"
 w. w. Atterbury, vice president of the Pennsylvania railroad, one of the Pennsylvania delegates at large. in a formal statement tonight declared the state delegation would be flor Gov ernor Sproule first, last and all the time"
 This coupled with the statement by Senator Knox that he regretted he could not be at the convention to have the pleasure of casting a vote for the Pennsylvania governor, was taken by the political sharps as hay ing the makings of a Sproule dark horse boom.

CHICAGO, June ,. Hoover headquarters tonight authorized the announcement that, according to present plans, a nominating speech for Herbert Hoover would be disp ensed with, but that if there should be one it would be delivered by Nathan Miller, of Syracuse, one of the New York delegates.
 The strategy of the Hoover man. aGers, it was said, was to depend on the convention failing to cast a majority for any candidate and to place Hoover in nomination, probably without candidate speech, at such time as they con slider to be the proper moment.

137 contested delegates, General Wood received F and Governor Low, den seven with 116 uninstructed. The reported leanings of the disputed del egates favor the Illonois governor.
 The committee, in the two Missou- ri contests refused to seat any con- testants.
 All of the II district delegates from Virginia aligned with the Slemp fac tiOn were seated. The committee re- jected earnest pleas of negro con Jesants for seats and also decided separate antioTganization contests in the third and eighth districts in favor of the Slemp facticr.
 According to the reports of the

 involved were distributed as fol-

 All of the contests are expected

 The final days proceedings in dis position of the contests which have kept the committee on the job for a solid week w5re marked by an at tack on Senator Moses of New Hamp- shire for his charges that steam roller" tactics had been used against Wood delegates and by unanimous adoption of a resolution looking to reorganiZ> tion of the Republican par 1 ty in the solid south

 Resolved that the chairman of the committee appoint special . committee of three of it's members, one of whom shall be from the south. who sail very carefully and impartial ly study the whole political situation in the south and also it's relations to that in the north with view of re- porting at the next meeting of the committee. or as soon as the special committee thus appointed shall be ready. how the Republican party in the states of the south shall be reorganized or constituted to make it more effective agent for the spreading and recording of Re- publican principles and of election b.

dustrial relations plank. The latter is acknowledged to be loaded with dynamite and the former is so sur rounded by counter claims that it has been arranged, and that it has not been arranged, that the real truth of the situation is not apparent.
 Most of all the practical politicians. however, were predicting today that any coalition of party leaders which presents the successful adoption for the league plank would be able to nominate it's candidate. The league of nations plank in the Indiana state Republican platform brought here by Senator Watson, who is the foremost candidate for chairman of the reso- lutions committee, seems to be the nucleus around which the discussion is centering and it may provide the cause for discussion.
 Resent Leadership
 On that point the reServatiOnists of various degrees and the irreconcil- ables appear as the elements to be brought into harmony Most of the party whips seem to be agreed that the convention cannot take any ac- ton which could be construed as a repudiation of the Republican leaders in the senate. Compromise seems to be inevitable and the prediction of the field marshals is that the convention will develop the candidate. On the side lines of the big fight there is scrimmage going on between the leaders of the party in congress and the leaders of the party throughout the country. Many of the latter have come to Chicago openly expressing the feeling that senators and repre- sentatives have had too much to say in the decisions of the party's af- must be given to the chieftains from the provinces. The statement by Governor Beeckman of Rhode Island, that he was not sure whether he was going to "a Republicans convention or senatorial caucus" has been con strued as notice from the governors and state leaders that they will de mand to be heard.
 Judging by their degree of pre-
 convention activities, Wood, Low
 den and Johnson might proptrly
 be designated the "biS three"
 On one proposition their mana
 gers are fully agreed - they all
 claim victory. They differ as to
 how it is to be worked out and
