ton of Jacksonville, Fla, to unseat the
two Smith-pledged delegates from the
Virgin Islands on technical grounds,
but this failed to get even so much as
formal discussion after the Florida
man had been heard.
During the Canal Zone discussion,
John H. Mccain, member on the Gre
dentials committee from Pennsylvania,
asked the contestants how they lined
up on presidential candidates. Hamlin
said his delegation was "uninstructed."
Mrs. Keen said her delegates were "for
Smith to the end Of the road" A loud
cheer greeted her announcement.
John G.. Barker, former attorney gen.
eral of Missouri and a Reed lieutenant,
also appeared on behalf of the Hamlin
Reed-inclined slate.
All of the contests except that from
Louisiana were disposed of In short
order In the Pelican State contro-
versy the committee came in for some
fiery oratory as both sides pressed their
arguments.
Fail to Call Convention.
The protest from Louisiana was
brought about by the action of the
state central committee selecting con-
vention delegates itself without calling
a convention, as had been the Gus
tom, the testimony brought out, for
number of decades. The protesters
against the slate on which the two
Louisiana Senators and governor were
placed we're led by Mrs. James M.
Thomson, wife of the publisher OF the
New Orleans Item, a daughter oil the
late Champ Clark. who was supported
by Senator Reed for President in 1912,
and a sister of one of the present Reed
workers.
Mrs. Thomson, until recently national
committeewoman was represented by
Ferd Claiborne of New Rhoads and
Harry Gamble of New Orleans, who
charged "usurpation of power and
fraud" on the part of the State GEN.
trail committee.
Harvey Fields, FarmerSville attor-
ney. and Arthur Edwards, Lake
Charles lawyer, argued the other side
of the case, declaring that the laws
of Louisiana specifically empowered the
central committee to act in its dis
cretion in national affairs.
Fields told the committee that a
State convention was not called be-
cause many of Louisiana's citizens had
been severely stricken by the MisSiS-
sippi River flood and were financially
unable to assume the expenses of at
tending convention.

The governor accepted three gifts,

The governor donned the derby to
show it was worthy successor to the
series of other similar war bonnets
which have been worn during his po-
litical campaigns Of the past quarter
century.

Committee.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated FFcSS.
HOUSTON, June 27.-By overwhelm-
ing votes the credentials committee
of the Democratic national convention
early today seated 26 delegates pledged
or instructed for Gov Smith.
Foremost in interest was the dele
gate contest from Louisiana in which
a block of 20 Smith-pledged votes we're
given preference over slate claimed
bv Senator Reed OF the 40 votes
recorded, only favored the seating of
the Reed faction.
The other Smith delegates seated
we're the Canal Zone faction, headed
by Mrs. L. o. Keen, national commit
teewoman, who was accorded an unan-
inlous vote over the uninstructed but
Reed inclined ticket, headed by Ma
tional Committeeman Frank I. Hamlln.
Two other contests were decided, but
they were without political significance,
since both conteSting factions intended
to vote for Smith. The contest from
the District of Columbia went in favor
of the six-delegate ticket headed by
National Committeeman Costello, and in
the fourth contest, Philadelphia dele
gates named on the regular Pennsyl-
vania Smith ticket were seated
Following the vote of the credentials
committee. the members on that body
from Missouri, North Carolina, Ala
bama, Texas and Florida attempted to
reach a conclusion as to whether a
minority report would be filed with the
convention on the Louisiana fight, thus
bringing the matter to the floor. No
agreement was reached, however. and
the participants decided to consult their
delegations prior to effectfg a final
understanding some time before the
convention met today.

ALBANY, N. Y. June 27.-The ac~
Invites of the Houston convention may
arouse some emotion in the breast of
Gov. Alfred E. Smith. but it doesn't
show in his face, nor is it translated
into words.
The governor listened to the keynote
speech by Claude G. Bowers at the ex-
ecutive mansion with a poker face
turned toward the reporters he had in
vited to hear the address.
Have you any comment to make?"
they asked

Dan than to Alester.
