OF Beer Issue
Democratic Leaders Hold
That Governors Attitude

by San Francisco Ruling
on Wet Plank, Says White

Governor Cox, to whose cause Tam
many stampeded ether wet" delega-
tlons at the San Francisco convention
in the belief that he was right" on the
liquor question, is going to ignore the
beer and light wine issue in his cam
paign, according to an announcement
made yesterday by George White,
Committee, who has charge of the Cox
and Roosevelt campaign.
The Democratic party as a party"
said Mr.. White, as not going to base
its campaign on beer and light wines.
1t will stand squarely on the national
platform for law enforcement. The
vets are at liberty to interpret the
platform in any way they choose"
The Interpretation Tammany leaders
the Tammanyized New York state
Democratic platform, calling for an
amendment to the Vo!stead act to per-
nit the sale of light wines and beer,
had been repudiated by the national
leaders Of the party.
Ever since the Democratic state con-
vention, under the domination of
Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany
leader, put its wet plank in the plat
form, the Democrats in the Western
and Southern states have been calling
for reputation of the wet plank,
fearing that if the Cox campaign
managers did not disavow the stand
taken by Tammany the Republicans all
over the country would pontlto them
as favoring beer and wine.

the lightning changes made by the
Ohio delegation backing Governor Cox
Governor James f. Campbell, leader
of the Ohio delegation, on his arrival
at San Francisco on Friday night be-
fore the convention, announced that
Governor Cox was not wet at all, but
that, on the contrary, he was a stanch
uphoder of the Eighteenth Amend
ment.
This official declaration caused a
nearpanic in the New York, New Jer-
sey, Illinois and Indiana delegations,
where the word was being passed
around that Cox was right on the
wet issue and that Tammany need have
no fears of him. Mr.. Murphy and Nor
man +. Mack held a hurried conference
of the New York leaders, and almost at
once the information was sent out that
New York had no use for Cox, in the
light of the declaration of Governor
Campbell that he was for the Egh-
teenth Amendment
AS soon as the Sam Francisco papers
gave currency to the contemplate

Murphy and Mack at the Palace Hotel
and assured them that Campbell was
"twisted' about Cox and that Cox
could be depended on to do the right
thing if Tammany supported him.
Ever since Cox was nominated Tam
