in this country without a progres

insure their nation a new party In

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS STARTED
HITT GET NOWHERE
New York, July 7—Peace negoti
ations for the selection of a com pro
r ise candidate were undertaken to
c'.ay uuder serious difficulties by a
p.ioup of Democratic Chieftans who
finally placed the task of freeing the
various delegates upon the National
Convention to break the deadlock
and to give its consent to the co-op
eration of the various State delega
tions. Many of the supporters of
both McAdoo and Smith are now
convinced that neither cau be nom
inated. Against this situation, how
ever, stands the open defiance of the
McAdoo managers who declare that
their only compromise will be when
the Convention has left Madison
Sqqare Garden. They appeared to
have no doubt that the leaders can
yet find a candidate upon whom they
could find a general agreement, but
later Rockwell announced that he
understood the purpose of the con
ference of the leaders to be to seek
foi an amendment which might
bring the deadlock to an end. He
added, “the high man in the voting
couldn’t be expected to stand aside
for anyone." The managers of the
other candidates and many McAdoo
ites indicated their willingness to
accept whatever selection seemed
acceptable behind the doors of the
conferences, where conferees are
considering such names as Robinson
Glass. Ralston and Davis.
The conclusions reached by the
leaders was to form a combination
against the McAdoo strength and to
use it to block the proposals of the
McAdooites to drop the low mail, to
tiansfer the Convention to Kansas
City and to abrogate the two-thirds
rule. Those proposals, by reason of
the coalition thus formed, were vot
ed down by the Smith factions and
the favorite sons. The combination
thus formed, if successful in elect
ing the president, also hopes to
name his running mate. Represen
tatives of each candidate addressed
the conferees.
