DEMOCRATS AT
CHICAGO CLASH
ON WET PLANK
Debate Repeal or StraddIe;
Majority Dripping
Says Shouse.
BY LEO r. SACK
Times stan Writer

CHICAGO, June 1S.-The ad-
vance guard of Democratic poll
ticians arriving here today for their
national convention, which convenes
a week from Monday, Immediately
clashed in a debate over whether
they should demand prohibition re-
peal or duplicate the Republicans
on the so-called Hoover straddle
plank"
Jouett Shouse, chairman of the
Democratic national executive COM
mittee, first of the committe Off
Gals on thte scene, already has re-
ceived fifty prohibition platform
suggestions. They range, he said,
from the moderate referendum idea
to repeal.
The large proportion are very,
very wet" he observed. The trend
is toward repeal. Others advance
the so-called Swedish system, and
many want the entire problem re-
turned to the states,
The first Democratic prohibition
fight will occur within the resolu-
tons committee, even as it did with
the Republicans-but with this diff
ference: The Democratic resolutions
committee, which convenes next
Thursday, will not be under White
House pressure to accept straddle
platform.
Aim to Be Frank
Democrats have struggled over
prohibition at two national COM
mittee meetings within the past two
years, with the result, in Shouse's
opinion, that they further are ad-
vanced as to what they want to do
than were the Republicans when
they reached Chicago.
Whatever we do" Shouse as
serted, I'VE will be franker than
were the Republicans. 1t is quite
possible that we will favor the sub
mission by congress of a repeal
resolution"
Among the leaders arriving here
it is noticeable that the G. o. p.
evasion has won some Democratic
political drys to the belief that
their party ought to be wetter.
The more seasoned spokesman,
represented largely by members OF
the Roosevelt bloc, insist that
the party demand scrapping of the
noble experiment"
They also demand that the can
didate express his unequivocal SYM
pathy with this repeal stand, when,
and if, such a plank is adopted.
Sec Eastern Gain
They estimate the possible votes
to be won as very large in the cast
ern states, embittered over the Re-
publicans' failure to meet the issue.
Privately the nti-Roosevelt forces
think the G. o. P.'s action is a
tactical gain for them.
Besides capitalizing wet sentiment
in New England, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and Illinois
which have almost 200 electoral
votes, they point out that the can
didate should, if possible, be man
who appeals to this territory.
Roosevelt, as even his friends adj

west than the wet east,

William LANCER, Republican

William LANCER, Republican
nominee for governor, Friday is
sued the following statement:
1T is needless to say that I am
pleased at the results Of the pri-
mary election.
Il am particularly happy that
the people of this state gave such
a rousing endorsement to Sena-
tor Nye in the face of the attack
which was made upon him. He
has fought long and we'll in the
interests of the people of the state
and l am sure this vote will give
him new vigor and strengthen his
arm in the fight. Eventually he
and those working with him will
certainly win. Then we shall have
new deal for agriculture
throughout the nation.
LAS for myself, 1 am both hum
BILE and happy. If elected in No
vember, I shall attempt to give
the state a sound business ad-
ministration and one in the in
terests of the entire people.
The fact that the entire Nom
partisan ticket was nominated
and that we will control both
branches of the legislature will
be a big help. I know these peo-
pie and I know they will act in
the interests of the people.
MY first aim shall be to reduce
the tax burden to point where it
will no longer be unbearable Tor
the farmers, homeowners and bus
ness people of the state. The peo-
pie have voiced, both by nominate
ing me and by their vote on the
initiated measures, a demand for
tax reduction. I am confident 1t
can be done without interfering
Win the necessary functions OF
government.
IF elected I shall, when the
time comes, propose certain pro-
gressive measures which Will
prove beneficial to all of the peo-
pie. These will be outlined at the
proper place and time.
ut is enough for me to say now
that the business people and prop
erty owners need have no fear OF
the state administration which
will be managed by the Nonpar-
tisans. feel that I speak for a
new party which wants to cast
off the fetisheS of the recent poll
teal history and to 60 forward to
a progressive victory in which
every honest North Dakotan can
share. =
