 Every roll call vote found from g to Ss in favor of upholding the national committee. while the oppo- sition varied between 13 and 16. The national committee had sus- tained the claims of Hoover dele gates in practically every instance.
 The chairman of the committee was Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney general and an ar- dent booster of the commerce secre- try.
