Veterans From 40 States
 Ask Nomination Of Some Buddy

NEW YORK. June 29-Definite bters toward urging the democrats to name q former service man as their vice presidential nominee were taken to- day at a caucus of former service men and women with representatives from a0 states attending.
 c. l.. Bodenheimer of Arkansas, the chairman, announced that the caucus would make no choice as between the three or four service men who have been talked ci for the place.
 A resolution by c. G. Calhoun of Texas, adopted unanimously calls for the nomination of vice president who has had both brilliant war and peace time record. Speakers declared that the nomination of Gen. Charles G.. Dawes by the republicans made neces- sary the naming of service man by the democrats to attract the soldier vote.
 Mr. Bodenheimer said the conven. tion platform committee had accepted all the suggestions of the service men except that calling for universal mili- tary service plank.
