Stand in
Coal Stringency Praised,
but endorsements for the
Presidency Is Withheld
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

SpcctHt DtSpUIcR 10 me TftbNt6
BAY CITY, Mich, Sept. 28.-The
Democratic party in Michigan to-day
straddled the issue of indorsing Henry
Ford as Presidential candidate in
1924
When resolutions calling for such an
Endorsement went before the state con-
yention resolutions committee here,
they provoked bitter fight, With the
result the platform adopted contained
only a complimentary mention of the
motor magnate's stand in the coal
stringcncy, The tacit understanding
was reached by party leaders, however,
that there would be no hesitancy in
indorsing Ford, unreservedly, in the
spring convention.
Two factors prevented stronger
stand this fall, although the conven-
tion reflected a strong Ford sentiment,
and had the proposed resolutions gone
to the delegates the chieftains might
have been unable to stem the tide.
One argument used by Edmund
Shields, of Lansing, in the committee
meeting against definite commitment
now was that il was "too soon to cross
the river" The other was that Ford
Endorsement would divert attention
from the Ferris campaign for the
United States Senate.
One platform builder who preferred
to leave we'll enough alone suggested
that Ford could not be depended upon
for much work in electing Ferris, while
the Endorsement would force Ferris to
divide his attention between the Sena-
torial fight and supporting the Ford
candidacy.
A member of the resolutions COM
mittee said that Ford, while not an
avowcd candidate, had told him he
believed in the doctrine that eff fate
should call us we should do our duty
Another suggested that Ford is bound
up in the Newberryism issue which is
the party's rallying cry this fall and an
Endorsement would help concentrate at
tention on this issue.
The final judgment of the committee
was summed up in this plank:
eve commend the stand taken by our
former candidate for United States
Senator, Henry Ford, in the able man
ner in which he has handled the coal
situation, in so far as it affects the in
terest of the people and his attitude of
justice and fair play toward labor in
this period of financial depression"
The proposal to have the convention
indorse Ford for the Presidency orig
mated with members of the Lenawee
County delegation, led by Samuel w
Raymond, brother-in-law of Ford.

cuse, will be the candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor. An attempt to tack
the name of Thomas B. Lockwood, of
Buffalo, to the ticket for Senator was
not so successful. Murphy still hopes
that harmony may be achieved by the
consent Of ST., n to run for Governor
If Hearst is made Senatorial candidate.
From far inside the Smith camp
tidings came that this will never be
done. Smith has taken back nothing
he ever said about Hearst, and has
forgotten nothing that Hearst has said
about him.
Moreover. Tom Folcy's district, from
which Smith sprang and still halls, has
been conducting feud against Hearst
of bitterness which cannot be erased
The gigantic Foley himself leaned
aghinst lamp post on Syracuses main
street all afternoon and to all inquirers
said:
"You tell them ---- that we wouldn't
have that @ on the same ticket with
us even if he was to run for dog
catcher
Shortly after Murphy listened irrita-
bly, to the chimes of midnight this
morning, who should drop into his Sc
cret counsel chamber but John F. Hy-
Ian, Mayor of New York City and en-
thusiastic supporter of Mr.. Hearst!
Mr.. Hylan did not come unlimited. In
fact, he came accompanied by guard
of honor which had been sent to fetch
him. The purpose of this nocturnal in
terview was to request him, in the in
terests OF the party, to consent to be
the candidate himself
Murphy intimated to him that this
would be desirable Phil Donahue
agreed with his chief John H. Nc
Cooey, sub-boss in Brooklyn, added his
soft voice to the pleadings, but Mr..
Hylan held up his hand in an indignant
negative. He run for Governor, seizing
the nomination from the hand that had
fed him so many honors? Never! He
would never desert Mr.. Hearst Be-
sides, he ha6 good job, and why
should he jeopardizc it by taking
chances in year when Democratic
success is by no means certain?
That eliminated Hylan. The con-
ferees cast about for other compro-
mise candidates. There were none.
So back to work they went on the
same old hopeless problem, in the same
old hopeless way And when other
people were sitting down to their
cereal and bran mullins the boss and
his advisors were still sleepily trying
to arrive at something that at least
partially resembled decision.
What has so firmly gummed this
situation is really the news from AL
bany. The unanimity as to Governor
Milier's nomination, the ease with
which harmony was attained, and the
enthusiasm which prevailed, has con-

he declared substantiated his assertion.
He condemned the Miller administra-
