7 BY HIS STATE
Pennsylvania Delegates En-
dorse Governor-Pen-
rose Elected Chairman.
CPubIic Ledger ServiceD

Philadelphia, Pa, June 2.-The
Pennsylvania delegates to the Re-
publican national convention met
here today and endorsed Governor
WIN. c. Sproul as their choice for the
presidential nomination. Aside from
the Endorsement of the governor the
delegates are not bound to vote for
any candidate.
The chief topic of conversation
among the delegates was the condi-
tion of Senator Penrose's health and
his plans for attending the conveh-
tion. Therefore, when it became
known Mr.. Sproul had had con-
ference with the Senator in the
morning and would make an an
nounCement as soon as the caucus
of delegates was called to order
Mr.. Sprouts words wer e awaited
with anxiety.
The first action of the caucus was
the election of Senator Penrose as
chairman of the delegation to Chi
cago. Governor Sproul presented
the Senator's name. when the Sem
ator was declared elected. Governor
Sproul said:
II desire to say that I have just
had a long and satisfactory conver-
sation with Senator Pehrose. He is
in better health than for several
days. Though he is convalescing
steadily, there is a complication of
local disorders which keeps him
house bound.
The Senator says he expects to
go to Chicago and is deeply interest
ed in harmony and in the action of
our meeting. Though he cannot see
you here he says he expects to see
you all in Chicago in a few days"
While these statements by Gov
Sproul apparently settled the dues-
tion of Senator Penrose going to the
convention. close friends of the SEN
ator who seek only to promote his
physical well-being. insisted to-
night that he would not go to Chi
cago.
The Senator is willing to sacri-
flee himself" II was said by one OF
his close friends. but his friends
and his physicians do not intend to
permit him to do So"

viding for this investigation: "a To

bringing out the evidence has done
a great public service. 1t has OBJ

the campaign managers. treasurers
and other officials of all known can

bursements of sums ranging from
about $4,000 to something over
$1,000,000. covering campaigns ex-
tending from a few weeks to a year
and a half. Most of these reports,
through cross-examinatiOn, have
furnished great detail, giving names.
corrections, antecede nts and other
Information as to the contributors,
together with the items and scope
of expenditures. This has been very
generally published in the news
papers of the country, so that the
public has been well lnforemd.
Other Evidence just Detail.
Thus it would seem that the
inquisitoriaI duties of the subcom-
mittees have been fulfilled. The
approximate aggregate contribu.
tions and expenditures in each can
didate's campaign have been shown
any further evidence in this regard
would consist mostly of detail
1T has now reached a point where
in great part only charges and
countercharges. intimstions and in
situations are advanced, resulting
in an investigation OF endless 'ru.
mors' from which nothing construc.
tive can, in my judgment. be ad.
duced. The Investigation ha:
reached a point where partisanshiT
and factionalism are indicated by
the witnesses testimony. and this
do not believe. the Senate con.
