By HUGH BAILLIE

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
SAN FRANCISCO, June %. Dem
ocracy met here today to choose a
standard bearer and prepare its plat
form. AS at Baltimore eight years
ago. there was no certainty as to the
leader who will be chosen, but the

mings, the 'keynoter."
This is the first national political
convention to be held west Of the
Rockies. 1t is being helrd in the
chief city of the state that four years
ago swung from Che Republican 70 the
Democratic column, thereby turning
the election in favor of President
Wilson.

are 1902 delegates. Of these, 72S,
or two-thirds, are necessary to 2
choice Of the presidential candidate.
Demo sracy this year clung to its pre-
cedent of two-thirds choice. Only
a majority was required to choose
Warren G. Harding, republican nomi-
nee, at Chicago.
| The big auditorium, seating 1906
persons, proved too small for the
great demands placed upon 1t, and
mony of the visitors here for the con
vention have been unable to gain adj
mission. In order to help raise the
5000, 5000 demanded or San Francis

has been giving an auditorium seal
