The McAdoo boom continues
strong, despite the former Secre-
tary of the Treasurys repeated re-
fusals to be considered as a cand;-
date. Many delegates paraded
around campaign headquarters ard
hotel corridors today, wearing n
their hat-bands cards which read,
"McAdoo IL Do
No headquarters for McAdoo haze
been established but the boom for
him refuses to stay down. Post
master General Albert s. Bureleson
today declared tnat the entire Tex
as delegation, or which he is one
will vote for McAdoo for the nom
ination.
Strong talk was heard today OF
Sen. Thomas J. Smith of Montana
for the chairmanship of the Reso-
lutions committee, which will frame
the platform. Walsh has the back
ing of William j. Bryan even
though he is opposed to Bryan's
pet plank, a declaration for strict
enforcement of the Volstead Prohibit
ton Act.
Administration Controls
Impartial observers, however, do
not believe Walsh will win the
place against Sen. Carter Glass, the
Administration choice. So far sur
face indications are that friends OF
the administration will be in COM
plete control of the party machin-
cry The administration fore
es appear to be in the minority and
to lack leadership.
Evidence is accumulating that
Bryan will find the cards stacked
against him in any attempt to put
over Walsh or to insert in the
platform any League of Nations
plank or prohibition enforcement
plank which does not meet with
| the administration approval.
Alaskans Plan Caucus
Alaska delegates will hold eau
Gus late today or tomorrow. Senti-
ment for Gov. Cox seems to be grow
| ing among them although most OF
| them, upon arrival here, expressed
preference for McAdoo. 1t is said
Gov Thomas Riggs. Jr., may be
offered a place on the platform
committee, but If he does not want
1t that George B. Grigsby, Delegate
| to Congress from Alaska, will be
chosen and Riggs named chairman
of the delegation.
The Hawaiian delegation an
nounced today that 1t would seek
a plank granting Territories greater
recognition in Federal affairs and
permitting them to share with the
States general appropriations such
as those for improvement of roads
and water power.
| Palmer Delegates Seated
Delegates, pledged to Palmer were
increased by % today when the Ma
tional Committee decided the Geor-
ga contest in favor OF the dele
gates named by the state convention.
Secretary of Agriculture Meredith
announced this afternoon that he
was not in any sense Presidential
candidate He did not say whether

sador Gerard and himself.
