DELEGATES TURN
CRUSADERS At
BIC CONVENTION
Religious, Economic and
Sectional Differences
Bitterly Contested.
BY G. A. RANDALL,
Times STAFF Correspondent
JEW YORK. july 5.-CruSaders,

cratic party's standard bearer.
Only persons in the grip of wildly
aroused enthusiasm, such as marked
the religious crusaders Of old, could
possibly go through what the dclo-
gates to this convention have gone
through and still refuse to compro-
mise.
Knights and ladies of the McAdOo
camp cannot and will not reach any
understanding with the knights and
ladies of the rival Smith camp.
They cannot agree on the question
Of religious belief, or on the solution
Of economic problems, andAsurmount-
ing these, there arises bitter sectional
jealousy.

II is the Protestant, Dry South
and West solidly arraigned against
the Catholic, wet East. The liberal
West against the conservative East.
The farmers and cotton growers
against the bankers and manufac-
turers. The native sons against
those Of foreign birth or recent for
eign origin.
While these differences have al
ways existed i'm lesser degree, they
have here 1een famed into vivid
flame and magnifed beyond az reason
Emotional delegates turned cru
saders talk wildly of welcoming an
opportunity TO lay down their lives
Thai their cause may triumph. The
sectional. regional phase Of these
differences cannot be better empha.
sized than by reference to the trend
of the vote during some seventy
ballots.
OF Smiths 329 votes. only thirty.
one on an average. came from west
Of the Mississippi or south Of the
Mason and Dixon line.
OF McAdoo's 52S votes an average
Of less than sixty came from East
Of the Mississippi and North Of the
Mason Dixon line.
From manufacturing New Eng.
land and New Jersey and banking
New York McAdoo received only
twenty out OF the total of 200 votes.
From the farming States west Of the
Mississippi. Smith received only
thirty out Of a total OF $50 votes.
From tho solid South's us votes
Smith received a solitary vote in
Florida.
When crusaders sally forth on a
supposedly sacred mission matters
Of time and cos are forgotten. If
these matters have not been
wholly forgotten by the Madison
Square crusaders they have at
least been relegated e the distant
background. What matters the
cost when a great principle is at
stake? So eason both the McAdo0

MOmentOus Decision

-
ission set up to investigate the
separations difficulty. it was as mo-
mentous a decision as President vii
sons declaration Of war. It was
Americas declaration Of peace. I
is much easier for both France and
Germany to defer I the wishes Of
America than TO the pressure exert
ed by Britain alone. France has no
sense of rivalry with America to
cloud her judgment, and Germany
knows that the good will of America
is essential to the restoration Of her
credit. Nothing but unimaginable
blunderings can steer this confer
ence into failure.
Every power concerned has &C
cepted the Dawes report. What is
more important. every power con
cerned needs the Dawes report and
wants the Dawes report. There is
therefore. no "arriere pensee" in hte
general acceptance Of this lucky re
port. It ought. therefore. to have
a walkover at the conference. L
