SPLIT NOT WIDENED
tBy Dispatch A. P. Wire,

DES MONIES, June 12.-Iowa's S
state republican organization meet
ing today for the first time since
the primary in which Col Smith w.
Brookhart was nominated for the nUi-
ted States senate over Senator A. 3.
Cummins, left the way clear for a
reconciliation between the party ma
chire and Brookhart. Their paths
had parted some years ago and the
breach reached it's climax within the
past two years when Brookhart re-
nounced President Coolidge in 1924
and tho central committee joined with
Senator Dan F. Steck.
The state central committee today
made plans for the state republican
convention to be held here July 21.
and designated former Governor Nate
E. Kendall as temporary chairman.
Selection of Kendall, in itself, was
interpreted as a move by the COM
mittee to restore peace in the party.
He has been popular in all factions
fand is regarded by the Brookhart
followers as not hostile to the coll
ionel
There was considerable discussion
committee meeting, it was revealed
but no announcement was made that
would indicate the committee was st
any time near action that would
widen the split in the republican
ranks Sentiment of most of the
members was that all measures de-
signed to restore harmony should be
adopted
Committee members GEpeared inter
ested chiefly in the platform Colonel
Brookhart works out for his cam
paign.
His speech at Mason City, which
some party leaders declared s4vored
of socialism, has been widely dis
cussed and seems just now to be the
principal obstacle in the way of a
reconciliation.
Brookhart's statement that he had
been misunderstood when he discuss
ed limitation of capital earnings APP
parently has caused some of his po-
llitical opponents of the past to with
hold judgement until late" in the
campaign.
The views of the unseated senator
and party regulars" will next come
into prominence at the state conven-
| tion, which will frame the party's
platform for the fall campaign, mas
much as all nominations were made
in the primary

WASHINGTON, June IL.
Digging deeper into the
recent Pennsylvania repub-

special senate investigating
committee heard some start
ling stories today about
conditions in Pittsburgh
and Philadelphia.
Frederick G. Beutel, a
supporter Of Governor Pin
chot in the senatorial fight
which William S. Ware won,
said he was thoroughly
convinced" that the "bal-
ance of power" in Pitts
burgh had been bought.
This was based, he said, on OBJ
servations made at the headquarters
there of Ware and Senator Pepper
during the days succeeding the pri-
mary when the rush of workers for
the two organizations to get their
pay was like run on bank"
Beutel estimated that approximate
ly 10000, men got money at the two
headquarters and said that since
many of these drew money for other
workers, he thought the total OF
men paid might reach $4,000.
Stating that he knew of no out
right case of vote buying, Beutel
said that instead, they hire watch
ers."
The Pepper watchers got $40, he
added, but at the Ware headquarters
IS bills we're handed out indicating,
he asserted, that "the Pepper people
were better fixed for money! c.
