J. |. Causey. OF Talequah had pro-

submitted TO The entire party. Ac-
tion was to be taken on the substi-
tute this afternoon.
State Chairman Lafayette announ.
ced this morning that there was a
balance of $4,000 in the treasury.
Oklahoma City. July 26.-whether
the democratic party OF. Oklahoma
shall reorganize or continue function
ing as at present. was to be declded
at meeting OF the Democratic
state central committee which open
cd here today. Political observers
regarded the meeting as one OF the
most important held since the presi-
Dental campaign Of 1920.
Reorganization plans will be op-
posed by former Senator Gore and
several other prominent party lead
ers. Gore has promised to address
The meeting and give his views on
the subject.
Supporters OF the. reorganization
plans include Ed NJ. Seamans. chair
nan OF the Oklahoma Democratic
Central committee. and several other
prominent members of tho state CEN
trail committee.
Tho reorganization plans call for
The election OF a precinct chairman.
the election by precinct chairmen
of county chairman and the cleo
ton OF congressional chairman by
county charmen.
The party at present functions
through state committeeman and
county chairmen.
"Whether the plans Of reorgani-
zation are favored or discarded, The
strength of the democratic party
will not be impaired" said State
Chairman Lafayette. "The matter
will be put to a vote. and II is en-
tirely possible that the reorganiza-
tion plans will not meet the approv-
al of the committeeman. In that
event amendments will be offered.
but there will be no attempt made
to force the plans as they stand, or
as amended, down the throat of
the opposition"
Few OF the committeeman were
willing to commit themselves on
their stand toward the proposed
conference scheme, but 1t Is the
general opinion that sufficient
number of votes have been obtain
ed by the opposition to defeat the
plan.
While there are no women on
the committee which will pass on
the plans, it is generally understood
that women 4ctively interested in
politics in the ssNte have inaugural
ed campaign against the proposed
preferential convention.
