BOILERS PLANS INCLUDE
NEW CANDIDATE.

Chicago. June 15.-Amos Pom
chot of the Committee Of Forty
eight and active in the Roosevelt
bolt of 1916, made a declaration
today that there positively would
be a new party and a new presi-
dental candidate in the field in
a short time. Rumors were heard
that Senator Robert LafoIctte Of
Wisconsin would be nominated
for president and that the regular
party organization was planning
an immediate start of its cam
palgn to elect Senator Harding,
its nominee. These were the out
standing features developing as
aftermath of the Republican Ma
tional convention. The state
ment made by Mr.. Pinchot de-
clared that the Republican party
has driven out of its councils mil
lions who would represent these
voters and include a definite and
constructive program. >"
