ment, which was signed by Chair
man Semans.
The meeting of the state execu-
tive committee today failed to claim
a quorum and 1t was on this ground
that no action was takn to change
the date Of the state convention,
which was called on May /, long be-
fore the primary.
Luther Harrison OF Holdenville, a
committee member. spoke in favor
OF an early convention and In de-
fense OF the committees action in
setting the date for August IS. He
urged an immediate convention as
q strategic advantage. maintaining
that every moment lost was driving
votes into the camp of John Fields,
the republican gubernatorial nom
inee.
The Official ComIluniquc.
The official communlque given out
at the end OF the meeting follows:
THE purpose OF the meeting OF
tho executive committee was TO con-
fer with the party nominees con-
cerning postponing the proposed
state and county convention called
by the executive committee May l..
Inasmuch as only nine members Of
the committee were present and such
number failed to constitute n quor-
um the committee found itself un-
able to take any positive action and
adjourned subject to the call OF the
chairman.
"Since the committee was unable
to rescind the action taken May 1.
the call still stands and the county
and state convention will be held on
the dates announced three months
ago.
owing TO the heat generated by
the recent primary contest the ac-
ton OF the committee in calling n
state convention to meet so soon
after the primary has been mlsun-
derstood by some democrats. Al the
time the committee voted unani-
mously to hold the state convention
on August 10. the campaign was yet
in the inclpient stage and no one
could possibly fOretell who would be
the party nominees. Prior expert
ence has taught the committee that
much valuable time Is usually wasted
by holding the convention weeks af-
ter the primary and inaugurating
the campaign late in the autumn.

WHERE NEWS TRAVELS SLOWLY,

In striking contrast with the rapiditv and ac-
curacy with which news comes to us from western
Europe, and with which it came during the DAYS OF
the war, is the slowness and uncertainty with which
the news of the disaster at Monastir, Serbia, has fiji
tered through.
During the war, news of important military
movements became known throughout the United
states within a few hours of their occurrence, very
often before American clocks had recorded the time
shown on European timepieces when the event took
place. lhls information not only came through
quickly, but it was found to be accurate to a degree
Which would have been remarkable under any cir
eumstances, and which seemed next to miraculous
when one reflects that in the sections where The
news developed millions of men were moving for
ward and back in the dread struggle which was in
progress, that munitions were being moved. sup-
Plies transported, forests rnown down and cities
oDllterated, and that every means of transmitting:
intelligence was being used under high pressure to
facilitate all this work. Somewhere, in what seemed
IKE a mere confused tangle, wires were kept avail
aole Tor the transmission of news to the public, and
thousands of men were kept busy night and day
collecting. sorting and forwarding it. 1
The Monastir disaster occurred ON Tuesday.
Some time next day a brief bulletin told Of a rumor
that somewhere in that district there had been a bad
explosion. A bulletin Thursday located the exD1o-
sion at Saloniki: Thursday night this was corrected
ana a few details were given. Friday came a few
halt q week passed with little definite information
ct one OF the greatest disasters of it's kind. q
The difference is easy to understand. Western
Europe IS highly organized socially and industrially,
and IS thoroughly accustomed to the ordinary con-
|veniences Of civilization with which it is well sup
Piled. Moreover, the war had, fixed the worlds at
tcntlon on the area of conflict. News from that CEN
ter was expected daily and hourly, and the most
capable people in the world in that line had been
employed to organize the news work. Monastir IS
a semi-oriental city: in a district inhabited BY people
OF q relatively primitive type, knowing little Of tele-
graph, telephone and newspaper, and incapable Of
beng brought readily into cooperation with expert
sepccd persons who would first arrive on the scene
to sofganize-the collection and forwarding ofinfor-
nation concerning the disaster.
The calamity itself IS one Of which It is difficult
to form any estimate. From the information avail
able il appears that 400 carloads Of munitions ex-
ploded. Men who served at the front in France and
who have vivid recollections Of the effectiveness Of
a hatfnl OF high explosives may Be able to bring the
explosion Of Tour big trainloads Of the stuff within
the scope Of their imagination. The swonder Is, not
that the heart Of the city was destroyed. but that
ANYTHING q the city was left standing and that any
cfs It's people remained alive.
