conceivable, would make a campaign

Kills C. w. Bryan Rumors
AL Smiths nomination, Bryan
says, is as impossible as that of
Oscar Underwood, each Of whom he
terms the candidate of "a helpless
and hopeless minority" adding that
the convention must nominate Mr..
McAdoo, who has borne the burden
in the heat of the day and made the
fight on a platform which is poth
progressive and equally dry-or
some other Democrat who is equally
progressive and equally dry. No
other kind Of a Democrat could hope
to rally the progressive and dry
masses against the plutocratic CO.

This pronouncement definitely sets
at rest any talk of possible align
ment of Charles w. Bryan with the
reactionary group: it adds to the
McAdoo camp the powerful artillery
of the man who has three times led
the Democratic party and whose
championship of progressive ideals
has stamped him as a perennial lead.

BY RALPH SMITH

NEW YORK, JuLe civilian
Jennings Bryan's declaration of po
litical fealty to the McAdoo cause.
and his prediction of McAdoo's nomi-
nation by the New York national
convention is the sensation of New
York. Coming as it does on the heels
of carefIllyspread propaganda by
the Smith leaders that their ticket
would be Smith and C. w. Bryan
the great commoner's brother anC
present governor of Nebraska, w. j
Bryan's declaration fell as a bomb
in the Smith encourage.
| Once more the Smithites have been
driven to cover, and have had strik'
ingly demonstrated to them the flu
tility of their cobwebby schemes.
Bryan, in a signed statement from
Montezuma, Ca, put himself square
ly behind the McAdoo movement. lie
made it plain that he had not
changed the principles which caused
him in 1912 to sound the death-knel1
to the hopes of Tammany and Wall
street, nor had lost his power tc
sway the party.
In an analysis of the party situa
ton, Bryan made many pregnant
declarations:
wall Street His FOE
mo Democratic candidate, how
ever reactionary, could hope to draw
any reactionary Republican away
from President Coolidge. A reac-
tionary Democratic candidate could
not even hold reactionary Democrats
from supporting President Coolidge
1.-THE only hope of the Democrats is
to appeal to the progressive Demo:
Gratis WI = constitute three-fourths
and probably four-fifths of~the mem
bership of the Democratic party,~and
to draw to the Democratic standard
many progressive ex-Republicans
who will be dissatisfied with the ac-
ton of the Republican convention"
Bryan listed as McAdoo assets the
antagonism of Wall street and of the
vets, and pointed out that the only
places where he had lost in his pri-
mary campaign were where either
or both of these forces had been dom.
inant McAdoo's candidacy has rep.
resented progressive democracy and

gates instructed for him or pledged
to him is sufficient to make sure
that neither a reactionary nor a wet

IF McAdoo is not nominated, the
campaign for the election would be
useless. The convention is in duty

STUDENTS
AND TEACHER TELL
Of SLAYERS' LIVES

CHICAGO. June 10.-Members Of
the faculty Of the University of Chi
cago and fellow students of Nathan
Leopold and Richard Loeb, con
fessed kidnapers and slayers OF
Robert Franks, school boy, We're Wis
iting the states attorneys office to
day to tell their stories of the lives
OF the prisoners. Their testimony
was wanted to help build up the case
against a defense of insanity.
T. Neill Johnson, one of the in.
structors, told how Leopold took a
difficult law examination two days
after the killing. Loeb was a post
graduate history student.
Leopld and Loeb will be tried
ransom preliminary to their trial
on murder charges, states attorneys
have decided. Both are capital of
lenses.
The move is planned to show the
prosecution and defense, particular
y
sions, concerning the admissibility of
which there is doubt States Attor-
ney Grove, who has not made a
court appearance for eight years,
will appear personally to direct the
court prosecution.
Loeb Seen Driving Car
Pleas of not guilty. will be entered
for both youths when they are ar
pl jCrI1n
ing to Clarence S. DarroW chief de-
Tense counsel.
The chief discrepancy in the boys
confessions-wh was driving the
automobile in which the Franks boy
was kidnapped and slain-was settled
yesterday by Carl Ulving, a .chauf-
feur, who told states attorneys he
passed the machine and Loeb was
driving a short time before the kid
naping. Each youth has accused the
other of being in the rear seat of
the automobile and doing the killing
Another development yesterday
was the racing of the portable type
writer used in composing the ran
som letters and found in a park
lagoon Saturday, as the stolen prop
erty of a University of Michigan
his room during the Christmas holi-
days.
That hypnotism, with Leopold as
the principal and Loeb as the sub
ject, may have entered in the case
is another point under investigation
by prosecutors, who have been told
" university students that Leopold
was a student of hypnotism. Stu
dents said on several occasions he
gave exhibitions of his powers on
other students and also used tricks
of fascination in his study of birds,
compelling them to remain still while
he observed them.
Victim Opposed Moose
Robert Franks and his elder broth
er, Jack. 16 years old, both planned
to be lawyers. but they had differ
ent views of capital punishment,
Jack said today in the office of his
fathers attorney.
Several weeks ago the brothers
took opposite sides at school de-
bate. Robert was on the negative
side-"Robert was always opposed to
capital punishment, Jack said-and
Robert S side won.
There was no doubt in Jacks mind
what should be done in this case.
Il think without doubt they should
be hanged" he declared speaking OF
Leopold and Loeb,

be lawyers" he said. But L guess
I'll have to be d lawyer alone now.
