Gen. Cox Will Fight
For Suffrage Plank
At Philadelphia
BY staff Correspondent of tn. sior

PHILADELPHIA, July lO-Brig.
Gen. Albert l.. Cox, commander Of
ne District National Guard, was
ready today to take Washington's
plea for suffrage in the Resolutions
Committee.
Gen. Cox. the District member of
the platform group, arrived here
with two tentative drafts of a plan,
seeking recognition of the voteless
status of residents of the Nations
Capital. He is hopeful one Of them
will be accepted.
The first follows the language
adopted by the Democrats four
years ago and reads:
We favor the extension of the
right of suffrage TO the people of the
District of Columbia
The second is identical with the
plank adopted by the Republicans
Wo weeks ago, which read, I'VE
favor self-government for the resi-
dents of the Nations Capital"
1t probably will be Monday Or
Tuesday before the full membership
of the Platform Committee hands
down its decision. Gen. Cox said the
intention of the District delegation
is to advocate both home rule and
representation for the District in
Congress. He said he regards either
of his alternative planks as broad
enough to cover both forms of
suffrage.
presidept Truman will get all of
tine Districts six votes when the
convention gets around to balloting
next week On the presidential NOM
ination, Gen. Cox said the District
contingent will vote as a unit. In
going for Mr.. Truman they will be
carrying out the will of the ajority
as recorded in the recent primary,
when the President received 236
votes. The combined total for all
other write-in candidates was 235
Gen. Eisenhower received l81 and
Supreme Court Justice Douglas 81.
The remainder were scattered among
several other names

delegation will hold its flrst caucus

Truman campaign for months, came
out with a statement in support OF
Justice Douglas for the nomination
in place of Mr.. Truman. The Ma
tional Board of the ADA is meeting
this morning to settle on course
for the future.
Even Mr.. Henderson conceded
that if Justice Douglas, who had nc
Southern support, couldn't get at
least $50 of the 1924 convention
votes, his candidacy wouldn't be
pushed seriously.

hasn't said it. I don't care what he

Determined as he is to make Gen
Eisenhower President whether Gen
Eisenhower likes it or not, Mr.. Snei-

ferent as to which party standard
his hero should bear. He distrib-
uted several hundred Eisenhower
buttons at the Republican conven-

He claims to have spent $1,000 so
far in his personal campaign to
elect Gen. EisenhoWer-an addition

general would not leave him out on

The official Eisenhower movement
here had been headed by Joseph
Nachman and Dale Mattern, two
local Republicans, the first of whom
contributed money and the second
time and effort to the partnership.
In throwing in the sponge last night,
they took the advice of Mr.. Rose,
the man who put on the Willkie
show in 1910 and who had hoped to
reproduce it in Gen. Eisenhower s
behalf this time.
Th small fry around Eisenhower

who hitchhiked here from Montana,
and a fellow dressed like a cowboy
who manages to walk on stills de-
spite the fact that he has a par
alyzed leg.
The diehard guerrillas have been
bequeathed a bulky collection of
original Eisenhower songs, including
one assuring the general that the
country wants "all the things of

is called Eve Want Ike for Presi-
