Craftsmanship and vision rel man. Governor Wilbur L. Cross. in accordance with the mandate of
 the state convention, dictated the
 choice of the delegates for nation
 al committeeman and committee
 woman after the presidential nom-- | inee had been picked. He named Archibald McNeil of Bridgeport to succeed himself as national com. mitteeman and McNeiPs "old guard" opponents accepted him on inc ground that "to the victor be-
 longs the spoils."
 Then the governor named Mrs | Welch as committeewoman. The
 "old guard", led by David E. Fitz- gerald of New Haven, who had l sought McNeil's post, objected l strenuously and the majority of the delegates voted against Mrs Welch. l Governor Cross, however, declar- ed her appointed with the explana- ton the state convention's resolu- | ton made it mandatory that the
 delegates elect the governors l choice. Z
 Governor Roosevelt is to be ask ed to speak at testimonial din- ner to McNeil at Bridgeport next month. The dinner is to inaugurate the presidential campaign in Con- necticut.
