INDIANAPOLIS, May l9.-Twenty-
six uninstructed delegates to the Dem1

OF Republicans
Findings of Committee of
liz Will Be Published
and Copies Given to All
the Convention Delegates
By Carter Field

FROM Ihe Ironres Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 10 Without
any attempt to draft planks, even as
suggestions to the trainers of the
platform at the Republican National
convention, the executive committee of
the advisory committee on policies and
platform adjourned to- day at the end
of two days of discussion of reports
made by the subcommittee.
1t was said that there would be no
attempt by the executive committee or
the committee of III to work out the
ideas Of the committee into definite
concrete shape. Having completed its
examination of the researches made by
the committees, the executive COM
mittec decided not to 60 further but
to be content with submitting to every
delegate to the Republican National
Convention & copy Of the reports made
by the subcommittee
1t was said after the meeting that
while there was some disappointment
on the part of certain members who
had thought there should be recon-
mendations as to the policies which
should be advocated by the national
platform there was no attempt to pre-
expression. On the contrary there is
said to have been no division at any
time sharp enough 70 require a vote.
AS was predicted by the Congress
sional members of the platforms and
policies committee before the meet
ing there was an attempt to discuss
the peace treaty and foreign relations
generally. The point was made, how
ever, that this had been reserved es-
pecially from discussion by the com
mittee on the theory that the foreign

Four thousand representatives. of all

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. May 10
Support Of the League of Nations cove
nant and the Versailles treaty without
amendment and "unfaltering support
of President Wilson, who has given all
but life itself in the service of his
country and the world" were pledged
in resolutions adopted by the Michigan
State Democratic convention here to-
day.
Breaking all precedents. the Michigan
Democrats gave to woman the honor
OF opening their convention. Mrs.
William H. Anderson, of Grand Rapids
vice-chairman Of the party's state CEN
trail committee, called the gathering to
order IN the absence Of the state
chairman, who was i'll.
Thirty uninstructed delegates to the
San Francisco convention were selected.

six by district caucuses. The delega-
tion Will observe the unit rNle. The

teeman John w. Bailey, Battle Creek;

the state central committee.
No mention was made on the con-
vention floor OF Presidential nomI
nee, Herbert Hoover. an avowed Re
publican, having won in the Democratic
primary.
The primary result, according to
party leaders. was also responsible for
adoption Of q resolution demanding
that the primary law be repealed or
amended to give districts the right Of
direct vote.
Another resolution criticized the de-
lay by Congress in acting on the SOL
diers' bonus bill, declaring the eX-
service men were being used as
political footballs"
The convention came to close after
a heated debate over a resolution on
the prohibition question. AS drawn
and finally adopted, the resolution de-
clared national prohibition "a con-
structive act Of the Wilson Admins
tration." An amendment, which was
lost, 925 to 269, would have pledged
the national convention delegates to
work for a permanent prohibition
plank in the Democratic platform.

Furthermore. it would appear to be
bad economy and bad finance for the

1T IS matter of serious concern TO
nave the government appearing in the
market every few weeks for loans Ger
tainly nothing ought to be done to the
existing credit expansion that can pos
sibly be avoided. The result would be
to increase prices and to make diff
cult situation less satisfactory. In the
circumstances, obviously the govern
ment ought to appear in the market
Tor loans as infrequently as possible
and for the lowest sum. Additional
taxes also are undesirable, but they
may be less undesirable than borrow
ing. They would at least have the
effect in part of enforcing economies.
me first thing to do, | am sure you
Will agree, is to keep Federal expendi-
lures down to the minimum, and it is
obvious also that other governmental
Jurlsdictions and private individuals
should do likewise.
Il beg to submit to your committee
for its serious consideration the oues-
tion whether, all things considered, it
would not now be advisable to seek
out additional sources of revenue to
meet the current needs of the govern
ment over and above any additional
revenue which would be necessary if
the soldier bonus plan is determined
upon, in order to obviate the necessity
of continuing in considerable measure
to meet them by borrowing.
Having those things in mind I hest
tate to express an opinion concerning

relations. policy of the party would b.,
shaped by the Republican Senators,
and that the party would have to go
to the country on that record, rather
than on any platform plank on the
subject which might be adopted by the
convention
mere was some surprise tonight
that the executive committee adjourned
after only hearing and discussing the
sub-committee reports. 1t had been
generally realized that the committee
would not attempt the drafting of &C
tual pianks. even as tentative sugges-
tons to the resolutions committee OF the
convention. 1t had been expected, how
ever, that there would be recommen-
dations as to the position which the
Republican party should take on the
various issues studied by the sub-com-
mlttees.
Indeed, the understanding on this
was so clear that at the time the ap-
polntment of the committee of III was
anNounced to the public by Chairman
WIZ II. Hays of the Republican Ma
tlonal, Committee it was explained that
this advisory committee would not go
into lie question of foreign relations,
either as to the peace treaty and league
OF nations or on Mexico, for the reason
tHdI inc hePuOllCanS IN the Senate were
engaged at that very time in making a
record on which the party would have
to stand.
1t was assumed by most observers here
therefore, that the advistory committee
while carefully avoiding the treaty and
Mexico, would have recommendation to
make on every other issue on which
there was any thought of the party
adopting a plank.
Arrangements were made to have
copies Of the reports Of the sub COM
mitees sent to the editors of news
papers all over the country, especially
as the reports are the result Of ex-
haustive Investigations into the sub
jects on which the party is expected
to go on record. Some of the sub
committee reports, it was said, were
edited to some extent by the executive
committee, but the changes made are
said to have been very slight.
This furnishing of information to
editors and in that way to the public
and also the furnishing Of copies Of
the reports Of the sub committees
which are in every case merely de-
tailed and distracted statements to the
delegates at the convention, will com
plete the work of the advisory COM
mlttee on platform and policies.

alternative measure, sales tax. which
understand your committee is con-
sidering.
''If, in view of the urgent needs Of
the Government for money to meet its
requirements, your committee con-
cludes that it will be wise to raise
larger amount by taxation and desires
any suggestions from the Treasury. I
shall be glad to have the experts place
themselves at its disposal. In the
meantime | refrain from making any
further comment on either proposal.
For the reasons indicated and for
other reasons, think it would be high
ly unfortunate for any new obliga-
tions to be placed upon the Treas
ury through the enactment OF the
bonus proposal in any form, however
financed"
To await action by the caucus, Chair
man Fordney postponed until to-mor-
row the meeting of the Ways and
Means Committee to consider the Re-
publican relief measure.

A gang feud is believed by the police
to have been responsible for the death
of Dan Barbella, ex-convict, whose body
was found at Elizabeth and Lafayette
Streets early yesterday morning, after
he had been shot from behind and in
W!lo!A QlJv eql S! on peU!Y AEusas
OF the vendetta within a week The
police have been unable to find a clue
to the slayers.
Barbella was twenty-five wears old
and lived with his wife and baby at %
Rivington Street. 1t is believed the
shooting was done some distance away
and the body carried to the point at
which it was found. The pockets Of
the murdered man had been turned in
side out, apparently for the purpose
Of making Identification difficult, but
the slayers overlooked gas receipt
bearing Barbella's name. His wife told
the police he had left her in cafe
near by only q short time before his
body was found.
