i Pennsylvania Controls Nomination
Pcnnsjivanla's vote is nhvnys the
lim of the candidates for the Republi

rocs the nomination is likely to go.
Wood soiiRht Pennsylvania first through
John T. King, who is a political protege
of Senator Penrose. When King failed
to deliver Penrose, King's usefulness
declined and he was dismissed.
Wood apparently nought it ngain

In 1010, Roosevelt felt that ho could

sured Roosevelt that if lie could de

'.I'
mild rescrvntlonlsts con stand ., upon
them like brothers.
Three innlii principles lire ngrecd
upon,. First, there shall be n denuncia
tion of tjic way the President negotiated
the treaty nnd the way ho tried to
rnm it down the throats of the Scnntc.
There'll be no weasel words In that.
On that point tho Republican party Is
a splendidly united party.
Second, the Republican Senate will
be praised for the way It saved tho
nation. Hero tho statesmen' disagree.
Onp plank says by attaching reserva
tions to the treaty, nut reservations
arc n subject of bitter disputes. An
Irreconcllablo hates a reservation ns
much ns be hates Wilson. Another
suggestion In tlint the nation was saved
by Americanizing the treaty. Another
would let it go with merely praising
the Senate for savins the nntion.
Third, it is agree," that there must
ho a constructive program committing
the party to some machinery of peace.
Here the writers nie nt sen. The words
must not squint toward tiic League df
Nations. 1W must they squint toward
an International arbitration tribunal,
which might bo a substitute for the
League of Nations. They must becross
eyed nnd look in both directions ntonce.
A wise head says the declaration will
filially read something like this : J'Tlio
Republican party has always favored nn
agreement nmong nations for the ad
justment of disputes arising amung
thorn." These words sound bare, but
they will be done up in cotton batting
of nbout 200 others words so that they
will rest easily ana not look entirels.
naked. Tho League of Nations will
probably not be mentioned by name in
the plank. 'Neither will reservations nor
anything on which va party so variously
ivnd nctively minded as the Republican
party might differ.
Democratic Platform Ready
Meanwhile, the Democrats have not
only a plank on the treaty but n whole
platform, written, It Is snid by Post
master General Burleson, Mr. Tumulty,
Mr. Homer Cummingg nnd others. You
might think tlint the Democrats could
be brief aud to the point on the league ;
but no, it takes them COO words to
express their emotions.
There is in their draft a long argu
ment why there should be a League of
Nations now; why, the time, the mood
and the mnn had arrived to start n
League of Nations; how the heart of
the world was broken when the Repub
lican Senate nullified, destroyed and
otherwise discredited the League ot
Nations, nnd 'finally a declaration for
the League of Nations as the only way
to keep the world's peace. Several
Democratic senators are busy with rival
planks.
The net result of this plntform writ
ing Is tlint the Democratic party has
the Lengue of Nations and all its as
sets. The Kcnubllcair party is for some
undisclosed plan which will preserve
peace. Tho Democrats have n little the
best of it, for the Republicans concede
the necessity of some international or
ganization and arc on the defensive as
to why it should not be "the league."

SEES DU PONI PLAN
FOR DYE MONOPOLY
Attempt at World-Wide Control
.
With British Firm Charged j
by Senator Thomas
"
MOSES EXPLAINS STAN D ,
Ily the Associated Press
Washington, May 8. There was
further reference In Senntc debate on
the dye bill today to the letter from the
du Pont Interests to Senntor Moses,
of New Hampshire, one of Major
General Leonnrd Wood's campaign
mnnngers, which was presented yes
terday by Senator Kcnyon.
Senntor Thomas, Dcmocrnt, Colorado,
said the letter "virtually amounts to
this: That unless Senator Moses with
draws his objections tn this bill, the
du Pont company will withdraw its
support of Senntor Moses nnd whnt thnt
support is every senntor knows ns
well as T."
Senator Thomas nt the satric time
presented information which he de
clared Indicated that the du Pont in
terests were co-operating with Levin
stein, Limited, a Rritish concern, to
establish n world-wide monopoly In the
manufacture of dyes.
Sees Plan to Dominate Industry
The senntor rend a rcnort of a Roston
suit against the du Pont corporation in
which n '.contract with the Levinstein
firm was offered. He told the Senate
the contract provided for mutual ex
change of dye natcnt.s aud nrncesses
and contained n provision by which the
Krltish corporation was to have exclu
sive manufacture and sales rights In
Europe and the du Ponts in the western
hemisphere. He added that the con
tract was made in 11118 and showed no
fear of Germnu dye competition.
"It indicates' he said, "a plan to
dominate the entire world industry."
Senator Thomas argued that this
contract aud the letter to Senntor
Moses were "nlmo-'t positive proof of
the iutlucuce behind this bill, of the
interests which initiated Ibis legisla
tion, which framed the language of the
measure. '
Purpose Little .short of Infamous"
"If I am correct." he declared, "then
it Is proof that the purpose of this bill
Is little short of iufnmous."
Senator Moses gave out n statement
today explaining his position on the
pending dye tariff hill. It was iu the
nature of a reply to the letter to him
from the publicity manager of the du
Pont interests.
The New Hnmpshiie senator said in
ills stntement he was advocating a spe
cial protective tariff for the American
dye industry, but wus opposing the
bill's import licensing plan because it
would embarrass "the textile industry
with applications for licenses, permits,
delavs nnd embargoes."

"Undignified," SnysFurbusli
In the letter Doctor Junginan pro
tests against the "unfair, nutocratlc
methods employed In the Mayor's office,
Department of Health and by the Civil
Service Commission."
Director Furbush inter said the "let
ter and statement nre both undignified
nnd premnture."
The director indicated that Doctor
Jungman had killed any chances for the
nppointmeut by his letter.
Asked if he had considered the ap
pointment of Doctor Jungman as super
intendent. Uoctor l-liruusii saiu ;
"I don't cure to discuss thnt. Rut
ou could scarcely expect loyalty from
a mnn who would make such a state
ment as this."
Refused to Use "Pull"
In writing the tetter to the com
mission, Doctor Jungman said his
friends had urged him to bring politi
cal pressure to bear. He said lie had
hesitated to do this becousc he believed
the administration would deal fairly in
the matter of the appointment.
Clinton Rogers Woodruff, chairman of
the Civil Service Commission, said that
the commission would be glad to have
Doctor Jungman appear and voice his
complaint, but that the commission had
nothing to do with appointments.

the commission in April. It is said that
Director Furbush did not consider the
list sufficient to choose trom nnu nag

mained on the eligible list for a year.
He would not have been required to take
the second examination, which is
scheduled for June 1.

street, was second on the eligible list.
