When Platform Change
Is Not Made.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.


KANSAS CITY. June l4.-The Re-
publican party platform, approved by
the resolutions committee last night,
without any change from the form in
which it was presented from the sub
committee headed by Senator Borah,
does not contain the proposed District
suffrage plank to authorize Congress to
give national representation to the more
than 500,00 residents of the Nations
Capital.
When the subcommittee was wres-
thing with several hundred proposed
pianks. an effort was twice made TO
have the national representation resolu-
ton included in the platform but voted
down. Henry Allen White of Kansas,
member OF the subcommittee, called
1t up. advising the subcommittee that
Senator Capper chairman OF the Sen
ate District committee, was very anxious
that this should be included In the
platform. It was laid aside for future
consideration.
Offered by Bingham.
When the subcommittee had about
finished its work, the suffrage plank
was again offered by Senator Bingham
4 III,
discussed at considerable length. Col.
Henry w. Anderson OF Richmond. who
has been actively pushed as a candi~
date. championed the Districts cause.
Several other members Of the Subcom-
nittee Joined with Delegates White and
Anderson in endeavoring to open the
way for enfranchiscmeft of the District
citizenry through constitutional
amendment.
After the platform reached the full
committee for approval Representative
Zihiman Of Maryland. chairman of the
House District committee. who was in
structed by his State delegation to work
