 OF HIS DELEGATION
Has Toed The Mark Every Time,
 He Declares

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, N. Y., July 5.-Oscar w. Underwood, Ala bama's candidate for the presidency, volunteered the statement today that the Alabama delegation had proved the most faithful of all delegations serving in this convention.
 The Senator had previously discussed the situation as 1t prevails. Turning quickly to the staff correspondent of The Age-Herald, he said:
 But, there is one thing that stands out prominently, and that was pro- foundly proud. The Alabama delega- tion has been more faithful than any other delegation. It has toed the mark in my interest every time it has been called up."
 The Alabama delegation, in its usual morning meeting at the Imperial hotel headquarters today, discussed the con vention struggle, and methods of ad- vancing the cause of it's candidate.
