WET LEADERS WET LEADERS OPTIMISTIC' i I CONTINUED FROM PAGI? ONE the party against prohibition. The fi st group of 11 states claimed by the wets after an antl-prohl- | bition conference comprised. ConI i.ecticut, Illinois. Maryland, Massa-1 i husetts. Pennsylvania, Ohio. Rhode i island. Michigan. New Jersey, Wfb-i Iconaln and New York. After forthi» r informal conferences the anti- 1 prohibitionists claimed all or part, 'of the delegations from lowa. Flor- 1 ;ida, Louisiana, New Hampshire.! 1 Maine, Vermont. Colorado, Canal; Zone aud Alaska. Farm leaders, meantime, angrily! 'comp'alned they had been refused! an opportunity to present to the platform committee their relief pro-, gram. I Representatives of the three maj|or farm organizations figured in a: 1 brief, angry scene last night when I the secret coTntnittee meeting ad ' Mourned without giving them an op-; I portunity to be heard. Edward A. j O'Neal, president of the American, Farm Bureau Federation, threaten-1 ed to rebel against the committee. "We may have to issue a state-, i menu" he exclaimed to Senator I Hull. Dera.. Tenn., member of the drafting sub-committee. Hull cautioned him against los- | ing his temper and gave the same 1 ; di ice to John A. Simpson, president of the Farmers' Union. “1 am insulted." Simpsoti, an Oklahoma delegate said. "1 feel insulted.” Hub. explained that he believed 'there liad been a misunderstanding [but that it could be “straightened I out." "I think you are out of temper | with us." he said to Simpson who I replied that lie still felt insulted. | "1 am sure we can straighten it. out." Hull said and walked away. | Simpson explained after Hull’s reparture that the farmers wanted; a program that would “give to farm-, ers at least the cost of production, for their crops consumed in this country." Bat he refused to ex-, ; pand this generalization into a deft-, | nite program. “We waited here at 8 a. m. to-! day," said O'Neal, “and there was I no meeting. We were invited here . at 8 p. m„ and they decided not to . | ho'd a hearing. “We represent three great nat-, ional farm organizations and think, we should be heard. We are united j for our program which is to get' production cost." The threat of a farm rebellion j was expected to influence the draft-, i ing committee today to give the; j farm organizations an opportunity I Ito be heard. Senator Walsh, Dem., Mass., led , I the wet campaign today. He sum-, intoned delegation leaders to a con-! Iference last night and obtained co-i • operation in behalf of committing; I the party to repeal. I "If a p ank less wet than the one, 'we propose is adopted by the platform committee," Walsh said, “we , shall carry our fight for this p'ank; to the convention floor. The drafting committee agreed; to meet at 10 a. m.. today and ex-1 pected to present a tentative plat ! form to the full committee at 8 p. I m. Prohibitfon still has not been | dealt with. The committee put! aside for action at the last the pro- ' hibition. unemployment and farm | planks. In the dispute with Hull, O'Neal | said he was representing L. J. Tab-': or of the National Grange. Chicago. June 28. — (U.R) —Tentative planks as now agreed upon by the Democratic plptform drafting committee inc'ude the following: Unemployment—Federal loans to states and public construction “in the public interest." Economy—Abolition of unnecessary bureaus and consolidations, where possible. Tariff — Reduction of Hawley-1 Smoot rates to competitive levels, for revenue only and ca'ling of an • international conference to discuss j lowering trade barriers throughout; the world; remava' of presidential i control from the tariff commission.! Silver — An international confer-1 ence to consider re-monetization of i silver. Philippine Islands —Independence. I War-debts — Concessions dependent upon international co-oper-ation with the United States in aimaments reductions. Banking — Endorsement of the i Glass bank bill including means for ; re ief of depositors of closed banks; ; penalties for violations of Federal, Reserve instructions to member tanks; separation of banks from their affi late corporations dealing j • in securities; increased centraliza-, t tion of power in the hands of the reserve board. 1 Labor — Reduced working hours I i per week. The farm plank and prohibition are Incomplete. The farm plank as drafted so far deals with improved rural credit machinery.

FOR the first time in many years a baseball trade has kicked-up a rumpus in a major league circuit. And that trade was the one which brought the youthful pitehing star, Dan MacFayden, to the New York Yankees. Squawks have come from Detroit, Washington and Philadelphia, for the baseball men and fans of those cities believe the acquisition of MacFayden gives the Yankees a bit of an edge in the pennant race. The Yankee pitching staff, they believe, was strong enough to win or make the pennant race a close battle all the way, before the deal for MacFayden was put through. Now they feel that the balance of power is a bit one-sided. The teams of all three cities had their eyes on the bespegtacled right hander of the Boston Red Sox. Clark Griffith and Connie Mack already had put in bids for the young man. To get MacFayden the Yankees had to part with Henry Johnson,

long a member of the Yankee hurling staff, and Paul Andrews, and, it is reported, a goodly sum of cold cash. Johnson, feeling that his trade to the Boston Rea Sox was unfair to him after his long service with the Yanks, refused to go to Boston. He left for his home in Florida and announced that he would stay there indefinitely, or until the Yankee management reconsidered his case. However the rules in trades make it necessary for him to obey or remain out of organized baseball. The acquisition of MacFayden, despite his rather poor showing with the Red Sox this season, undoubtedly makes the Y"ankee hurling staff the strongest in the American circuit. The youthful righthander long had ambitions to become a Yankee and he will work like a beaver to make good. Being with a hard-hitting, winning combination this latter may not be so difficult a task.

• Yankee domination of the Ameri- i ; can League race is the play of Tony Lazzeri, the walloping sec-ond-baseman. Tony is playing ’ brilliantly around the keystone post and Manager McCarthy, who ' not so long ago thought of giving Lazzeri and Earl Coombs for MacFayden, is probably thanking his lucky star that he didn’t go through with the deal at that time. Tony, thought to be through last ' ■ year, has made a comeback that smacks of real baseball genius. He is batting at a .380 clip and leads ' the Yanks in triples. Lazzeri. warming a bench the better part of last season and forced to listen to the condolences i of his mates and rumors that he ; would not be a member of the Yanks much longer, never gave up ; hope. “I’m in a terrible slump,” he 1 said, “but I’ll come back!” And ; he has, with a vengeance.
