Toilette of Wisconsin as presidential
standard bearers for the Republican,
Democratic and Farbor-Labor parties
at state proposal meetings here last
night, a group of proposal men from
the Farmer-Labor element early today
was endeavoring to make partial
fusion with the Democrats on. state
nomination proposals.
About thirty men out of 10 in the
Farmer Labor party denounced the ma
tional platform and bolted the con-
vention to confer with the Democrats.
According to participants, the dissatis-
fed Farmer Labor men will attempt to
frame joint ticket from United States
senator down with the Democrats.
Leaders in the boiling Farmer-Labor
group included Warren E. Back, presi-
dent of the state federation of labor;
State Senator William Bartling; j. w.
Batchellor, president of the Farmers
Union of South Dakota and Mark Bates
Farmer-Labor candidate for governor
in 1922.
Confidence was expressed by both
elements in the conference as to the
prospect of satisfactory state ticket
which it was planned to take into the
Democratic convention for adoption
as the majority endorsement of the
party.
According to word from the meeting
chamber, efforts were being made to
build ticket which would equally di-
vide the important state positions be-
tween the two parties. Some diff
Guilty over the senatorial selection was
anticipated but for governor and 9TH

President Coolidge was given the
majority nomination for president by
the Republican proposal men over SEN
ator Hiram Johnson of California by
vote of 5O,379 to 27.34O and later the
endorsement was made unanimous by
rising vote.
Mr.. McAdoo, former secretary of the
treasury, received the Democratic en-
dorsement over Henry Ford by a
vote of 39,01S to 5,O72.
The Farmer-Labor convention en-
dorsed Senator LaFollette by vote
of 1899 against 7,247 for Henry

In a letter written late yesterday,

Reichstag today was scheduled to pass
an empowering bill, which would
launch Chancellor Marx on his trou-

powers. With Christmas coming on
and salaries badly needed, members of
the Reichstag preferred making Marx
a dictator to having parliament dis
solved and their pay stopped The new
chancellor has chosen the not original
slogan Deeds, not words" as the
watchword of his government. His
domestic program will be one of econ

Reichstag declined to pass the empow-

could only hope to exist few days.
