SEEK LEADER TO
OPPOSE M'ADOO

San Francisco, July1.-The attempt
at a combination against the namino-
ton Of W.. G. McAdoo was still. being
carried on when the convention went
into its night session, but is was still
without any definite result. Lack of
headway was ascribed to the absence
Of central control and to the feeling
among many of those importuned to
join that it was really directed against
President Wilson rather than wholly
at movement against McAdoo. That
feeling, its managers agreed, was it's
weakness.
Another real difficulty was that
many of the supporters of candidates
have enthusiastic followings, chiefly
Palmer and Cox, orgued that they
should not be asked to desert their
candidates until it had been developed
whether they can gain strength. In
these camps were scattering delegates
who preferred McAdoo to to any dark
horse. The promoters of the otempted
combination against McAdoo were
proceeding desultorily and one after
another they continued to bring for
ward such names as Former Speaker
Clark, Vice President Marshall, Homer
S. Cummings, Broinbridge Colby, and
even William Jennings Bryan.
Clearly and admittedly there was no
name about which they could rally.
The Cox and Palmer leaders laughed
OF the idea of swapping off" at so
early a stage and asserted it ha dnot
been demonstrated that Mr.. McAdoo
commanded place in the running to
cause them to fear hint was with
them plainly a case of waiting to be
shown.
While the real leaders were dealing
with the platform discussion, those
who for one reason or another opposed
McAdoo, Palmer and Cox kept up their
informal conferences. =
Many contended that few ballots
would easily show the impossibility
of nominating either Palmer or Cox
and the bitterest administration op-
ponents warned delay in efecting a
program which might brinE them TO
the issue at time teo late to tdefeat
Ez196as6s sssRitk due -pso-
nounced convictions embarrassed these
leaders by demanding to know why
it was that a combination was neces-
sary In many instances this forced
the admission that the principal argu-
ment hy they thought Mr.. McAdoo
should not benominated was that he
was the son-in-law of the president.
The administration clearly as in con-
troll of the convention and this ex-
planation was clearly unpopular in
many quarters on that account.
All factions have been canvassing
the state delegations to determine the
actual strengh for each of the leading
candidaes. The returns do not agree
but the nearest to an impartial esti-
mate obtainable showed that on the
first ballot the strength of Palmer
would be about 278, with McAdoo fol-
lowing ith 274 and Cox in third place
ith 100. This left Ali delegates scat
tered among the other II candidates
placed in nomination.
