FIGHT LOOMS AS G.O.P. MEETS 10 RATIFYCLEVELAND Western Republicans Show Discontent Over Designation of Convention City, By United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 11. Rumblings of discontent over President Coolidge’s designation of Cleveland as the next Republican convention city grew in volume today as the Republican national committee met to ratify the selection. In response to the mutterlngs from western and mid-western Republicans, there were evidences a sham battle was to be staged before Cleveland was named finally. Some "insiders 1 on the committee Indicated the battle would last for two days. With Chicago definitely out of the running, Des Moines and San Francisco are the chief contenders against Cleveland. The Des Moines delegation, headed by former Senator Rawson, is determined the selection shall not go by default. Armed with data showing the lowa city to be well equipped in halls and hotels, Dawson intends to emphasize the political strategy of selecting Des Moines, in the heart of the corn belt. Western and mid-western Republicans point to the presidental prefer ence of Cleveland as a tactical error. Cleveland to the western farmer is “east.” they say. The psychological effect of holding the convention west of the Mississippi river would do much for Republican success, they believe.
