Price Outlines How G. 0. P.
Convention Fight May Result
Old Party Leaders Enter
Into Many Discussions
Having Bearing On I'm
portant Issues
By BYRON PRICE

(Chfef OF Bureau, The Associated
Press WnshingtonJ
1t now is possible to get a some
what clearer view of the Republi-
can situation, although many OBJ
scurities persist.
The most prominent feature of
the picture is the effort of a
powerful group of old-line leaders
to prevent any foreclosures of the
presidential nomination in add
vance of the convention.
This effort is focused prin-
cipally in the east and midwest.
The plan is to keep the conven-
ton balance of power in the
hands of a sikeable bloc OF dele
cations pledged to no candidate.
That would make it possible to
settle the matter on the ground,
after a final canvass of the situa-
ton.
To this movement adhere many
of the recognized leaders of the
old guard. Apparently no objec-
ton is raised by the friends of
most of the candidates.
Whether Herbert Hoover is to
be a candidate or not, his as
sociates appear to believe that his
best bet is to let the nomination
question remain open. The sup
porters of Governor Landon mani
testify are seeking to keep him as
much in the dark horse" class as
possible. and to avoid arOusing re-
sentiment by entering primary
contests.
Naturally. the friends of such
other dark horse candidates as
Senator Vandenberg and Senator
Dickinson interpose no opposi-
ton. A dead-locked convention,
with a preponderant number of
delegates free to shift to a COM
promise candidate, would be ex-
actly to their liking.
How 1t May Go
There is one exception-pos-
ssibly two. The definite excep-
ton is Senator Borah. The pos
sible exception is Colonel Knox.
Knox himself refrains from dis
cussing the political wisdom Of
choosing uninstructed delegates.
but his adherents are at work in
many states for delegates in
structed for Knox. He alone,
aside from Borah. is showing a
readiness to 60 into the primaries
and fight it out.
Borah's opposition to the unin-
structed-d delegate program is
open and direct. He pronounces
it a scheme to disfranchise the
common voters, and permit the
old guard to make its own choice,
for its own purposes. in a back
room caucus.
Thus do events appear to ar
range themselves. on the basis of
the present circumstances, for
three successive waves of action.
First comes the initial heat be-
tween Borah and Knox, each seek
ing to line up enough delegates to
nominate him.
IF these two are stopped. or if
they stop each other in the con-
vention, the next step seemingly
will be to try out LahdOn. or pos
sibly Hoover.
Finally. if neither of these can
make the grade, the convention
must turn to the dark horses. If
it is of a mind to select a candi-
date with a middle-ground record
on the "new deaP' it will be Of
fered Vandenberg. If it seems
better to take an out-and-outer.
it will be asked to look over
Dickinson.

sentative church of the Disciples
Of Christ. The interest of the
brotherhood at large was aroused
and the National City Christian
Church was established.
Made First Pastor
AS a reward for his efforts he
was made first pastor Of the
church and served until his retire
ment in 1881. The congregation
of the Vermont Avenue Christian
Church, of which he was pastor
for 20 years, became the nucleus
of the National City Christian

the church is said to be responsible

Service Committee, of all religious
faiths, authorized by the War and
Navy Departments, and was a

Warren Peake, Riverdale, and

county grand jury reports on its
investigation. They were Sus-
pended on the basis of a suit
filed in county circuit court
against Elmer Pumphrey, bonds
man of Suitland, Md, for the
recovery of $140 which the plain
tiff declares he paid Pumphrey
as bond, fine and court costs to
keep a speeding case out of court.

Appeals Refused
Yesterday, the commissioners
despite the appeal of a delegation
from the Berwyn District Civic
Association and a petition of citi-
zenS from Laurel, Md, asking that
the board investigate the police
department. voted down a reSolu-
ton for an inquiry. The board
rejected a similar proposal last
week.
In refusing to make a separate
inquiry. the board stated it's juriS-
diction was purely administrative
and not judicial and that the queS-
ton of any corrupt practices
among police and bondsmen was
a matter for the States Attorney
and the grand jury to decide. The
board also reiterated its former
statement that it had not received
any specific charges.

Although there are literally
hundreds of feminine Govern.
ment employees who make bowl
ing a foremost winter paStime at
least once a week, it is doubtful
if any single participant is more
universally known than Mrs.
Esther Burton.
Mrs. Burton. who holds a
secretarial position in the office
of the Comptroller of Currency
in the Treasury Department, is
one of the leading stars of the
Ladies Federal Bowling League,
rolling with the TreaSury'S repre-
sentative team, and latest reports
gave her an average of 102 per
game. While this figure isn't
very high for a man, it's the
envy of most women who try to
bowl.
From North Dakota
A native of Edgely, North ,Da-
kota, Mrs. Burton came to the
National Capital a decade ago,
after graduating from Fargo Col
lege, and entered the Treasury
Division of Loans and Currency
to remain for three years. She
then shifted to her present post.
In addition to her bowling, she
enjoys swimming and if she
hadn't become one of Uncle
Sans fairer workers she would
have sought a career as an in
terror decorator. incidentally,
due in large extent to her skill in
bowling, her Treasury team is
near the top in its league pen
nant race.
A large percentage Of Federal
employees express the desire to
succeed in some part-time activ-
ity in addition to their regular
positions. For such folk attrac-
tive Frances Strom, a bowling
teammate of Mrs. Burton. pro-
videS an excellent example.
