Inmates at $685. 900. In contesting the
document Mrs. Ferris has furnished
unique basis for seeking TO break

testator. He had two sons and
daughter by his first marriage, and
they, it is alleged by the widow, also
showed hostility toward her.
AS to the SITS Of hatred" to which,
she says, Mr.. Ferris was subject there
were periods, she declared, when he
would display the greatest hatred for
her, while at other times he would
show the most ardent affection. Mrs.
Ferris expressed the belief that on
January 8, 1920, the day he executed
ms Will, the testator was Gust enter-
ing or coming out Of one of his fits Of
hatred"
After she married Mr.. Ferris, she
said, he changed his mode of living to
conform with her ideas, taking up their
abode at the Waldorf-Astoria, where
the couple lived for seventeen years, at
an annual expenditure of $4,000. The
alleged hostility of Mr.. Ferris's chill

undue influence on their father in the

From, The Trtbunc's Washington Bureas
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-National
Chairman White was the victor In to-
days meeting of the executive commit
tee OF the Democratic National Com
mittee. At least, ne was the victor to
all outward appearances. The commit
tee declined to approve the movement
OF McAdoo men to call a meeting of
the national committee March for the
purpose of forcing Mr.. White into re-
tirement 1t adopted resolution
which held that such meeting was
"impracticable."
AS result of the meeting Mr. White
not only remains chairman but there
are many indications he will remain
chairman indefinitely. AS for a meet
Ing OF the national committee, it is not
in sight. 80 ''O'
Inc outcome is generarIy looked on
as complete rejection of the plan in
aIgurated by National Committeeman
Thomas 3. Love, Of Texas, and by Rob
ert W. Woolley, former member of the
interstate Commerce Commission. and
ciose friend and supporter of William
q. MeAdoo. Mr.. Wooley, in fact. is
looked on as the real originator of the
project to force an early meeting of
Ine In, committee and likewise to force Mr..
White into retirement.
On the other hand, it is maintained
by MIR. Love and Mr.. Woolley that as a
result Of their efforts they have start
ed a movement fef reorganization
which will win later on. If their view
is correct, the leaven Is working which
will eventually bring results in the
shape of reorganization which will
put new man in as chairman, or in
some fashion take the management out
of Mr.. Whites hands. This is another r
way of saying the McAdoo men do not
purpose to rest on what was done to-
day.
Protestations of Harmony Made
Strong protestations of harmony
were made on all hands at the close of
the long meeting of the executive COM
mittee, which was held at the commit
tee headquarters here behind closed
doors, and which lasted most of the
day.
In the end the executive committee
adopted q resolution which lays down
q program and provides that the action
Of the executive committee shall be re-
ferred to all the members of the Ma
tional Committee, with the recommen-
dation that the members give their ma
ture consideration to the program, and
"if, in their more deliberate opinion,
an early meeting Of the full committee
should be called, that they so advise
the chairman"
The resolution further provides for
the appointment of director of pub
licity, for an executive secretary, for
preparation of budget to meet in
debtedness, and provide for hesdquar-
ters expenses and for organization of
women's bureau.
Senator Carter Glass, himself NC
Adoo man, was one of the speakers in
the executive committee meeting who
New-York tribune., 1921-02-18

opposed any action that would seem 10
force Mr.. White to call a meeting.
Former National Chairman Homer s.
Cummings took like stand.
Mr.. Woolley, who was present, struck
out Of the petition for a meeting OF
the National Committee that paragraph
which wished Mr.. White years OF hap
piness and was looked on as notiica-
ZION that 1t was purposed to relegate
him to the rear.
Fight on Cox TO Continue
Although the meeting closed to-day
with Mr.. White still in possession of
the Craftsmanship, II is quite clear that
the McAdoo adherents, or some Of
them, are not going to cease their
efforts to wrest control of the organi-
cation from James M. Cox. The Wool
ley-Love petition has left feeling in its
wake that cannot be obliterated by the
adoption of an executive committee
resolution.
Chairman White presented letter
from r. c. Roper, OF David City, Neh..
political manager for William J. Bryan.
1T protested against any faction try
ing to reorganize the national commit
tee and held that the rank and file of
the party alone could reorganize it.
The letter further said:
Who has authority to say how or
when committee shall reorganize
until the people have spoken? The
voters first speak their wishes through
their township, county, state and ma
tlonal conventions or primaries"
Wilbur w. Marsh, treasurer of the
committee, made his report to the
executive committee. He said the cost
of the 1920 campaign was $l,560,000
Collections were S1,400,000. This leaves
net indebtedness OF about $3.50, 900.
This, Mr.. Marsh expected, would be
covered by existing pledges and by
solicitation.
