the question had been submitted

Adoption Is Expected.
Adoption Of the report before
nightfall by a substantial majority
was predicted by the convention
leaders.
Some members Of the convention
particularly those who wanted to
place a new third party in the
field this year, were displeased with
the committees recommendation
preferring to have the party sci
up Independent candidates Of its
own choice.
The leaders Of the convention
headed by Morris Hillquit, New
York, felt, however, that the polite.
ally expedient thing to do was to
unite behind La Toilette, and at.
tempt later to form the third party,
TO which the Conference for Pro.
