MANY PLANkS IN
 LEAGUE OFFERED
 FUR ACCEPTANCE
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased wireJ

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27.-SeveraI league of nations blanks, conflicting more or less violently with administra- tion views, were perfected today for presentation to the Democratic resolu- tions committee when il begins its deliberations.
 The volunteer proposals almost as numerous and varied as were pro- posed reservations to the peace treaty when the drive for senate compro- mise was at its height. Three or four of them, however, stood out because of their authorship as forecasting the principles around which the conven- ton fight will center.
 One prepared by Senator Walsh Of Massachusetts, who supported the Re publican reservations throughout the two senate fights. would omit any declaration for ratification of the treaty in any form, but would declare faith in a league of nations along defined lines according with American inter ests.
 Another, said to have the backing of a number of senators who supported the president at the start of the rati- ncation debate but in the end voted to take the Republican program, would declare for ratification with reserva tions interpreting the meaning of the league covenant and protecting Ameri- can interests
 Stlll third suggestion, which came from supporters of William Jennings Bryan, would put the party on record as favoring ratification with whatever reservations it was necessary to con cede. All of the proposals were sub ject with the assumption that reser vations are inevitable. The Virginia plank, endorsed by the president, puts the case the other way by declaring for ratification without reservation de- structive of the vital. purposes of the covenant.
 Senator Walsh's plank. which he framed after a day of conference with leaders from various states. approves 'the ideals and principles which Presi- dent Wilson espoused in his efforts to form a league, and then says that in any such league the United States must not be obligated to engage in wars waged by foreign powers, to abridge it's right to arm for national defense, to give any other nation a preponderance of voting power to inn pair the Monroe doctrine, or to assist in the subjugation of any people seek ing to gain their liberty.
 MT. Bryan devoted practically the whole day to his prohibition fight but it was said he had not lost sight of the league controversy and would be on hand with a plank of his own at the proper time.

 The manifesto states that the Will listas endeavo to join the Sonora revolt at it's inception. hoping that it shared the same ideals and principles as their own but it states, ''unfor tunately our good faith. our honesty and our patriotism have been met with intrigues, disloyalty and treachery. and with the most absolute disregard for the justice that has been and still is ours"
 The Obregonistas the manifesto con- tinues. demanded that he signers of the manifesto abandon their chief, General Villa and retire to private life or serve in the army under an Obre- gonista chieftain, and that General Villa retire to private life and confine himself to the state of Sonora until after the elections, when he could live anywhere in the republic as a private citizen.
 This is the first information reach ing Washington as to the terms pro- posed by the new regime in it's effort to secure the retirement of Villa.

OPPOSITION TO SENATOR GLASS
 GA|NSSTRENGTH
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27-The fight against Senator Glass of Virginia. the administrations choice Tor chair man of the resolutions committee, re- mained an indefinite quantity tonight but was attracting increasing atten- ton in convention gossip.
 Administration leaders declared there was no doubt of the outcome and some of them even asserted that the movement against Senator Glass would collapse entirely before the committee meets late tomorrow to or ganiZe.
 Those active in the opposition were less positive in their claims but they declared it was a real fight.
 Senator Walsh of Montana, who re- jected President Wilson's advice and voted last March for ratification of the peace treaty with the Republican res ervations, was the candidate urged against the Virginia senator. A group of western delegates seemed to form the backbone of the Walch movement but those in charge of if concededly were making their fight under cover and said they did not care to tip their hand by revealing who had promised support.
 William Jennings Bryan. expected to be the center of platform disputes in the committee, said he had no candi- date for the chairmanship. He previ- ously has advocated Senator Walsh $ selection as permanent chairman of the convention, however, and the gen. eral prediction was that if a roll call were taken in the committee he would line up against Senator Glass.
 The movement to make the Montana senator permanent chairman appar- ently had been abandoned. though il was said that some eastern states which might have supported him for that place probably would not be for him for the resolutions chairmanship.
 Advocates of Sena tor Walsh's candi- dacy to head the committee insisted that the fight was not essentially ar nti-administration one and that his selection would not necessarily mean overturning the administration pro- gram of declaring for the peace treaty without destructive reservations. They declared they were conducting their whole campaign on the basis of the personal qualifications of the two men
 So far as platform issues were con- cerned, there was no evidence of a change in the situation during the day except that both vets and drys put on extra steam and the advocates o1 an Irish independence plank held fur ther pow VOWS in an effort to get to- gether on a program. The group op- posing the administration treaty plank also continued work on various sug- gested substitutes but apparently reached no very definite conclusions.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27-Samuel Gompers. president of the American Federation of Labor. accompanied by Vice President Joseph Valentine, Vice President William Green and Vice President Matthew Woll reached here tonight and announced that they were prepared to present to the resolutions committee plank that would meet the requirements of labor After con ference of labor chiefs. Mir. Gompers and his associates made the following statement:
 We have come as delegation fepre- Senting the organized working people of America to present to the resolu- tions committee of the national Demo cratic convention the proposals which organized labor deems essential to the well being and domestic progress of our country and of all our people.
 About a year ago, the Republican national committee appointed . num- Der of men and women to be members of a so-called advisory committee on platform and policies. About four months ago this committee sent to great many of our citizens a series of questionnaires, leading all to believe that the purpose was to secure in- formation for the guidance of the Re- publican convention in making q plat form that would reflect American thought and meet American needs.
 Much information was gathered as result of this searching. When the Republican platform was drafted tt was found to contain nothing reflecting the thought of America and nothing to meet the needs of the American people.

 That section of the White mountains abounds in fish and game, according to MT. Gordon. who enthusiastically recommends the district as a summer camping place. There is still snow, he reported. on the higher peaks.

DRAFT PLANS FUR
 OPPOSING WILSON
 PLANKS ON TREATY
TRepubIioan A. p. Leased WireJ

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27-Plans for opposing the administration treaty and league of nations blanks were formulated at an hours conference to- night between W. J. Bryan and Sena- tors Walsh of Massachusetts and Reed of Missouri. Their first effort, Sena- tor Walsh said, is to be made in the resolutions committee by offering sub stitutes for the administration plank.
 If defeated in the resolution com n1ittee Senator Walsh said, it was planned to present a minority report to the convention The major concern of those in the movement. the Massa- chusetts senator added is to prevent commitment of the party to unreserved ratification of the present league GOV enant.
 We discussed several platform blanks, principally the treaty and the league" said Senator Walsh.
 For the administration treaty plank it is pretty generally agreed that we shall offer several substitutes, possibly three or four. to the credentials com mittee. They have not been drafted, but our general purpose is to op- pose committing the party to unre- served ratification of the present covenant
 If the substitute blanks should be re iected. Senator Walsh said the next move would be for presentation of the issue to the convention itself. Senator Reed declined to discuss the confer ence.

DANIELS FALS|FIED TESTIMONY IN NAVY
 PROBE SAYS DECKER

WASHINGTON, June 26-Attacks on Secretary Daniels and Assistant Secretary Roosevelt are made by Rear Admiral Benton C. Decker, command ant of the Seventh naval district Florida, in letters to Chairman Hale of the senate naval Investigating com mittee. which were published today in the Army and Navy Register, a ser vice journal.
 The officer charges that the naval secretary. in his recent testimony be- fore the committee. Intentionally and deliberately" misrepresented certain acts of Rear Admiral Sims, Fullam and Flske and that he had determined to break" these officers because they would not follow him to the limit or demoralizing and degrading the navy
 Admiral Decker asserts that in this effort, MT. Daniels had used 'all the power of his high office the power of ridicule, sarcasm and half truths the strength of publicity secured through his newspaper connections-aI weap- ons which Prussianism used to de- stroy it's enemies and autocracy has used through the ages to maintain its power"
 The admiral declared that, to him, as to other high officers of the navy. 'it has come that if we would bow down and do the wishes of Mir. Dan iels we would receive the rewards herefor-intirnation that come by cir cuitous routes and underhanded. sneaking ways. so that no one can take hold of them"
 In any reorganization of the navy the admiral continues. the best inter ests of the country demanded that there should be placed in the depart ment an officer "big enough and broad enough and of sufficient ability to maintain the standards of the navy against the encroachments of the civil ian secretaries. who seek to make of the navy political organization"
