July 2 After nearly and nigiits of ease-less to: oiutions ce.mmittee of the of the democratic national I. ur days :I .the re--democrat .-. cor.v ent ion nd presen;n tcday a succeeded in working out incr to the full conven platform which represents pract.eal a complete and sweeping victory t Wilsonian pclic.es. tO.M)EM.S REPIDLICA.XS The league of nations i3 endorsed completely in the. language of the nowfamous "Virginia plattorm" which is supposed to have been dictated by the White House and demand is made for immediate ratification of the pea--e treaty. The republican senate is strongly condemned f ir its failure in this respect. FOLLOW THE REPUBLICANS On the wet and dry question around what bitter fight was waged, the platform is silent. Like the republics... platform adopted at Chicago, no mention i3 made of the matter at all. The Irish plank, another measure over which there was considerable; fighting, expresses sympathy for ltelatid's struggle for self-government. But it does not mention the Irish republic, nor does it contain a recommendation for re-cognition for any Irih government in Ireland such as was waged by the ardent pro-Irioii element of the party. IGNORS THE IRISH Bourke Cochran .of New- York, trn-i conducted the fight for inclusion of such a plank, said today the fight may be taken to the floor. The. platform, as submitted to th -convention, represents a s:gna.l defeat for m. J. Bryan, three times thparty's nom.nee for the presidency. H .. differed from the president on il." league of nation? issue and he toughtooth anil r.ail for inclusion in t... platform of a bone dry plank. In beta fights he was defeated. The platfoim endorses tihe league of nations and ignores prohibition. Undaunted and still full cf battle. Brian will carry his fight to the f.ocr ioelay and by offering amendments Sfe,; to change the platform by direct vote of the full convention. DEFEAT FOR MANDATE Only cne of President Wilson's foreign padicits went duvvn to defeat in the platform. This was his proposal that Hie V. S. assume a mandate for Armenia. The Armenian plank In the platform merely expresses "our deep and earnest sympathy" fcr the unfor'.unj to people of Armenia and ignores completely the mandate, asked by the president. i One small coner-ssien was granted the i opponents cf the league of nations. They succeeded in taking an amendment on the plank in the final hours, which declare 1 that the Democratic party does not oppose the a. tcptan. . of any reservations making clearer or more specific the obligations of th.8 United States to the league- cf nation.-. This amendment was written in by Senator David I. Walsh of Massachusetts and represents "saving the faces", of those Democratic senators who vo'ed for the Lodge reservations vole in the senate. HERE ri I.EAGI E PI.AK The league of nations plank is as follows: "The democratic party favors the league of nations as the surest, if r.-t the only, practieable means of maintaining the permanent peace f the world and terminating the insufferable burden ef great military and navnl establishments. "We commend the president for his courage and his high conception of good faith in steadfastly standing for the covenant agreed to by ail the associated and allied nations at war with Germany and we condemn the republican senate for its refusal to rat.fy the treaty merely because it was the. preiduct of democratic statesmar.?h!". thus interposing partisan envy .and persona! hatred in the way of the peace and renewed prosperity of t he world .
