posed, as originally presented, by
almost the solid delegation from the
South, who argued that it was a
slur on their section of the country.
The opposing faction was led by
Committeeman w. H. Jackson, of
Georgia, who urged that specific
mention Of any section be omitted.
The amendment was accepted by
Col. Warren, and the resolution was
unanimously adopted.
The action. which was interpreted
to foreshadow a complete regenera-
ton of the party in the South. came
as a direct result of the hearing on
contesting delegates from Okla
homa, where it was shown that ne
groes had been kept out of con-
vention gatherings. The opinion was
expressed that in the future no lilly
white" delegation will be seated from
States where colored. voters either
predominate or are entitled TO a fair
representation. The committee set
a precedent when it threw out the
contesting delegation from Florida,
which called itself lilly white"

Johnson IJects Treaty Fight
into Republican Convention
Immediately Upon Aniual

on the treaty and there enters the
menace that is dominant in Chicago
tonight.
Should Senator Johnson be able
to obtain q straightforward con-
domination of the league of nations
the candidate OF the party would
be tied hand and foot. He would
be committed to a foreign policy
In opposition TO the preponderat-
ing sentiment of the thinking ele-
ment in the United States. Mr..
Johnson's fight here now is direct
ed against an Endorsement of the
treaty. even with the Lodge reser-
vations. His program excludes en-
tirely the platform of the New
York Republicans. dictated by
Elihu Root. calling for an indorse-
ment of ratification. 1t goes be-
yond even that. 1t would not ac-
cept the Indiana platform, which
did not go beyond indorsing the
action of Senate Republicans in re-
fusing 10 ratify the treaty as
Woodrow Wilson signed ii at Ver-
sailles.
The Indiana plank, drawn by
Senators Harry S. New and James
Z. Watson, both of whom favored
ratification, was skillfully drawn
to let the ''bitter-enders" down
lightly. Although not satisfac-
, tory to the. irreconcilables 1t
would do for a compromise in the
: last analysis. That being the case,
the Johnson-Borah group will hgnt
Tor something more condemnatoI ,
OF the treaty. in the hope that they
VIII get nothing worse from the
convention. The definite statement
was made tonight that Mr.. John
son would fight the Indiana plank
on the floor of the convention
should II be approved, in principle.
by the resolutions committee. John
son has nothing to lose as a candi-
date in such a hght.
There was widespread discussion
and no little speculation as to the
significance of the action of the
Pennsylvania delegation in declar-
ing for Governor William C. Sproul
instead OF Senator Philander c.
Knox. The consensus of opinion
however. was that Senator Boies
Penrose was playing his usual
skilful game and not disclosing his
full hand. The idea prevailed that
the Keystone outfit would stick TO
Sproul throughout the early strug-
gle and would swing to the agreed
candidate at the proper moment II
they come down here hurrahing for
Knox they might be forced to COM
promise on someone else. They
now are prepared to hold Knox In
reserve. Such is the estimate. OF
the political gossips.
Knox Favored Slightly.
With Senator johnson on the
ground declaring that the party
declaration on the treaty is more
vital to him than the nomination
and the objections raised to other
dark horses" suggested from time
to time, the situation is regarded
in very many quarters as being ad-
vantageous TO Knox. He is known
TO be the real second choice of all
the anu-trcaty elements in the
party. They believe that the can
didate rather than the platform
must ultimately determine the party
stand on the league of nations.
Hence. their enthusiasm for him at
present, in spite of the statements
of some OF the most skilled gaugers
of public opinion who hold Knox
impossible and his nomination out
of the, question.
