tinuous session in which SOME OF the
most disorderly scenes n convention
history were enacted.
The attempt to substitute a plank
on the league OF nations Tor that sub
stituted by the platform committee
was bowled over by heavy vote but
the vote on the khan was very close
and its taking was surrounded with
scenes OF acrimony and dispute such
as have not been witnessed IN years
on the floor OF a national convention.
Hall Packed With Police.
Managers of the convention feared
TO discuss the Khan plank OF the plat
form in the presence OF the crowded
galleries and agreed upon a plan tor
a SEPARATE session from which all but
delegates and newspapermen would be
excluded.
Talk of party splits on every side,
threats OF violence which caused the
authorities to pack Madison Square
Garden and the streets nearby with
police. and openly expressed fear that
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1924-07-01

some blood might be spilled in heat
ed discussion OF the religious issue
caused the convention managers 10
come to their decision.
Climaxing two hours OF fervid de-
bate, in which charges and counter
charges OF deserving Wilson were
hurled heatedly from the speaker
platform, the democratic convention
voted down, 742 to 353, a platform
plank which would have pledged the
party to carry the United States into
the league of nations, and insured
the adoption OF a plank which puts
the party on record as favoring RET
erendum by the American people on
entrance into the league.
The uncompromising league plank
was fathered and fought for by New
ton D. Baker secretary OF war under
Wilson, who made one OF the most
dramatic speeches ever heard in po-
litical convention in its favor,
The Georgia delegation voted solid
ly against the Baker league plank to
put the United States in the league.
Khan Fight Almost Draw.
While considering the Ku Klux Khan
question the convention engaged in
one of the most bitter platform fights
in its turbulent history-1a fight so
acrimonious and so heated that party
leaders candidly confessed that it may
split the party wide open on the eve
OF the campaign and promote religious
antagonism and sectionalism to a
point hitherto undreamed OF.
The issue was the Ku Klux Khan
and whether the party, in its PLATFORM
should denounce it by name.
A majority of the committee on
resolutions said No" This majority
represented every state south of the
Mason-Dixon line save one-Alabama
and most OF the states OF the west
and central west, save four-Ohio,
Missouri, Illinois and Minnesota.
Smith States Unite.
A minority OF the same committee,
weary from four days of batting for
denunciations OF the hooded order
specifically, said Yes" In this mi
nority were the populous states of
New York, Massachusetts, Illinois,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and in adj
dition to the above named were Maine,
Maryland, Rhode Island and Vermont.
All are Smith states in the fight for
the presidential nomination.
The convention voted SAP 500 to
541 500 against including in the plat
form a plank specifically condemning
the Klan by name
Three members of the Georgia dele
cation, Stovall, Irwin and Miss Colly,
voted to condemn the Khan in the plat
form. Two or three did not vote when
their names were called.
The platform was then adopted as
a whole and the convention adjourned
until Monday morning, when it will

successful and that the mule will be
in good condition in a few months.
