Of the revolt,
World Court Problem
Meanwhilc, another tempest is
brewing in the G. o. p. ranks on
the World Court and farm relief
questions.
Senators James Z. Watson and
Arthur r. Robinson. it is under
stood, are striving for a plank In
the State platform indorsing their
eleventh hour opposition to the
World Court. Leaders fear pro-court
Republicans will start battle on
the convention floor.
Persistent supporters Of the Haug-
en- farm.relief bill, it is said, will not
be satisfied with weasel words IN
the convention platform on that IS
sue. Many farmer Republicans will
not follow President Coolidge's
stand against Federal farm aid.
May Seek to Pour Oh
Those who pour the peaceful oil
will strive to content the belligerent
agriculturists with a plank outlining
what the state administration has
accomplished for the farmers in the
way of reassessment Of real estate,
the cooperative marketing law and
other measures, but it is said the
farmers will not be satisfied with
other than a definite program for the
future.
Farm federation heads may fight
to create sentiment in favor OF
state income tax. but 1t is believed
there will be no attempt to force in
clusion OF platform plank to that
effect.
The old struggle between advo-
Gates Of the county unit system Of
school control and the Indiana Town
ship Trustees Association may be
renewed. Leaders believe the plat
form will straddle or ignore this
question, along with the wet and
dry conflict and other issues OF a
tlcklish nature.
Republican political haunts as
sumed an aspect Of activity as dele
gates. candidates and observers
poured into the city in a steady
stream. Doors Of Tomlinson Hall
will be thrown open at 9 a. m. Thurs.
day and the convention will be called
to order by Walb at 10 a. M. in the
historic setting of many political
struggles.
Watson is expected to arrive
Wednesday. though he has not def
initely announced his plans to leave
Washington. Some believe IL the
fires Of revolt blaze too high he
might decide to remain away.
