"McAdoo will be strong candi-

Chairman Glass, of the resolutions

William J. Bryan was waiting to offer
his minority reports on five planks.
Senator Glass began reading at
the rate Of fifty-six words a minute.

The advance estimate of time likely

While the direct declaration for

When he finished the league plank,
Senator Glass departed from his

The fas that the covenant has been

all as jealous of their independence
as we are Of ours, is sufficient re-
futation OF such a charge. The presi-
dent repeatedly has declared. and this
convention reaffirms. that all our

Conduct Of tho War.
During the war President Wilson
exhibited the very broadest concep-

conduct Of the war, as in the general
administration Of his high office.
there was no semblance of partisan
bias. He invited to Washington, as
his counsellors and coadJutors, hum

Shanghai. July PA strike Of
thousands of students thruout China
to compel the Peking government to
disclaim all intention of opening
direct negotiations with Japan con-
cerning a settlement Of the Shan
tung problem has failed. Leaders Of
the national student organization in
Shanghai attributed it's failure to
lack Of popular sympathy and un-
timeliness.
Before going on strike student
leaders called upon the government
to issue public disclaimer and de-
manded that the Peking authorities
publish all secret agreements made
with Japan. The government ig-
nored the ultimatum. About $4,000
Chinese quit their classes in Shang-
hal and thousands OF others went on
strike in others of the fourteen
provinces. They remained out for a
month or more and then called off
the strike.
