 In the same speech he started tremendous Smith demonstration by quoting Jefferson and the Constitu- tion nj support of religeous equality. he supported the McNary -Haugen Bill and voted to pass it over President Coo1idge's veto.
 So overwhelming was the landslide to Robinson that when the column was added up it totaled more than 900 of the HOO in the whole Convention. his two nearest rivals, Senator Barkley of Kentucky, with 77 votes and Mrs. Nellie Ross, with B, withdrew in favor of Robinson.
