11 TAGGART AT ODDS WITH GEORGEBRENNAN Illinois Leader Pushing Al Smith and Indiana Boss for Ralston, By- ROBERT J. BENDER United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 21. —After two decades of team work with the Democratic “old guard,” Tom Taggart of Indiana today found himself at odds with the last surviving member save himself —George E. Brennan of Illinois. Taggart not only is supporting Samuel M. Ralston. Senator from Indiana, for the nomination, while Brennan is backing Governor Al Smith of New’ York, but he is not in sympathy with the vigorous attitude the Chicago boss is taking on the Klan question. Neither has Taggart entered into the much heralded campaign to defeat William G. McAdoo. At Same Hotel Although Taggart, who arrived last night, and Brennan occupied rooms in the same hotel, they did not meet. The chief went directly to his room and spent a quiet evening with his son, while Brennan circulated in the lobby and emphasized his decision to defeat McAdoo and force the adoption of a plank scoring the Klan by name. Despite the present divergent views of the two political strategists who, with the late Charles F. Murphy. Tammany boss, virtually dictated the nomination of James M. Cox at San Francisco in 1920, it is generally believed that they will be found standing together when the time comes for a final showdown on candidates and platform. "Simply for Ralston” “I wish to say that I am not in any combination to defeat McAdoo,” said Taggart in emphasizing his position. “I am simply for Ralston for President.” Regarding the platform, Taggart said that he believed it should be left to the committee on resolutions and that suggestions should be submitted to the committee to be thrashed out before the final draft is submitted to the convention. McAdoo is under attack by a combination of anti-McAdoo forces and arrival of the first delegates increased the doubt of Smith's nomination. In fact the prediction is freely made he will at no time muster more than 250 or 300 votes iri the convention. With arrival of Taggart the resumption of Ralston talk put him out in front again as a compromise contender, but the practicability of nominating John W. Davis continues to command the greatest attention. BILL’S BROTHER BOOSTED Governor Charles Bryan of Nebraska Ip for Nomination. By United Press NEW YORK. June 21 —The nam 3 of Governor ‘Charles W. Bryan of Nebraska, brorher of the “Commoner” will be presented to the Democratic National convention as a candidate for the presidency. This was decided today by the Nebraska delegation which will vote as a unit for him and will continue to give him support so long as a chance remains for his nomination.
