PRINCE ENJOYS POLO PLAY AND STAG DINNER Call Te Also Paid at John W. Dayis Home By Bniisher. SYOSSET, N. Y., Sept. 4.—The Prince of Wales prepared for a more active day today, after indulg- ing in twenty-four hours of almost complete rest so far as athletic exertions were concerned. He watched others knock the polo ball around and attended his first formal stag party since he landed. As guest of the Piping Rock club at Locust Valley, 6 shared honors with the British and American polo teams for whom the dinner on the eve of the international match has become a custom. The prince, when attending two polo games yester. day, eluded the major portion of two audiences. At the Meadowbrook club, where he sat alone and while few were conscjous of his presence, he ‘escaped by conceding no more than a few snapshots. But at the w. Grace grounds, where the Americans played, he was dis- covtred and followed by a crowd that, though small, was persistent enough to cling to him until he had stepped into his motor car after climbing a rail fence. The prince paid a call atthe home of John W. Davis, Democratic nominee for president, on his way 4o the polo grounds. Mr. Davis Was not there, being engaged in the west, so he was received by Mrs. Dati The Piping Rock club dinner was strictly a stag affair, On the wall behind the prince's place at the tablé was his coat of arms, flanked on one le by the itish royal standard and on the other by the Stats and Stripes, The red British ensign was draped over the entrance of*the dining room, There were toasts to the president of the United States, King George and the prince himself. ‘To the last one the prince responded with a fow impromptu remarks expressing thanks to the Piping Rock and Grand gold medal set with a diamonds By DAVID LAWRENCE (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.—Judging by reports received from all parts of the country, the voters are discus sing’ among themselves what would bappen If none of the three presi- dential candidates—Davis, Coolidge or LaFollette—recelved a majority of electoral votes. This discussion is, in part, natural because the race is three-cornered but it is being heightened to some extent by both the Coolidge and Davis supporters,, The Republicans are using it as a means of getting votes and the Democrats are even more zealous im their adaptation of it to their advamtage. The Republicans*are Saying that if the election is thrown into the house of representatives for decision as is provided ,{f no candidate re- ceives a majority of the electoral votes, then im case of a deadlock in the house, the ’enate may choose a Meadowbrook clubs and the Hunting families of Long Island for the pleasure of his holiday.

Then Captain A ascelles, of the } part aid the prince had declined an invitation to participate in € option to the American dling filers at Mitchel Field He would not attend, he man F, Truvee Davison citizens committee in charge option because he con- t the pf the re sidered the occasion as being of & vice president by the name of Charles W. Bryan thru a coalition of LaFolletta Republicans and Demo- crats and a radical would become president ‘of the United States. This thought is most unwelcame in~ the conservative areas of the country, especidaWy in the east where Bryan- ism for a generation has been -re- pudiated at the polls. But the Democrats are contending the exact opposite in talking with conservatives , namely, that the way to pr nt the selection of Bryan is to support Davis, eitherat the polls or in the house of representatives. For example, if no candidate has re- ceived a majority of the electoral votes on November 4, congress will be convened in regular session in December or can be called into spe- cial session even @ulier. ‘The house has until March 4, to pick a presl- dent. During the three months of discussion, the conservatives of the country who would be opposed to the selection of Bryan would be urg- ing the selection of President Cool- idge: If the Democrats remain obdurate there will be a deadlock in the house, because the state delegations are about evenly divided as between the Democrats and Republicans and there could be no majority of the state votes for any candidate, as is necessary under the constitution un less some of the LafFollette Re- publicans assist President Coolidge or vote for John W. Davis, The con- Servative Republicans could, of course, unite with the Democrats, too, and select Davis and thus pre ¥ent the élevation of Charles W. Bryan to the presidency. The coun try and congress will have two more months to think about the kind of a president to be selected. But the y bé thrown into the house of representatives is not neces sarily Bryan. It may be Davis or Goolidge. The conservative Republi: cans and Democrats in the senate could pick Charles G, Dawes for vice president if they didn’t want Bryan and if the house were deadlocked as between Coolidge, Davis and La- sequel that Follette. All this may seem remote, but is being brought concretely at hand every day us the deadlock is visuallz ed. The theory that a radical wil! be president is based only on the idea that the conservatives of the country, Republicans and Demo: crats, will be so hostile to an agree ment on Coolidge or Davis that they would deliberately permit the senate to make a choice uf vice president It is alse ed on the thought that the Dem in such a contin. gency, would hold their strength in the senate to Bryan and would win the LaFollette Republicans to their side. If the conservative Republicans really considered John W. Davis pre- ferable to a radical, they could agree to support him in the house on the pledge that Charles G, Dawes would be given Democratic support in the senate for vice president, Were there really a conservative combina- tion in both parties, the ticket of Davis and Dawes would not be im. possible of selection at all. But is John W. Davis going to be aligned with the conservatives whe ampaign is over? His advoc of certain 5 iples close to the La Follette platform may be designed to corral radical votes, but it may also serve to make him closer to the radical Republicans than President Coolidge. If they were assured of a volce in the next administration and of o working coalition with the semt-official kind which he has rigidly excluded from his holiday. * profer Democrats as occurred last session of congress in both houses, they may Davis to Coolidge. If such aim straighter than ever. VOTERS BUSY DEBATING WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF NONE OF BIG THREE WIN ELECTORAL VOTE naturally help keep the as vice president and the presidency on house has failed to’ choose a pres!- dent before that date. would mean a bréakdown in party lines and a consideration by the con. servatives of whether they should combine either for’ Coolidge or for Davis and checkmate the radical as- cendancy in the senate. As it stands today, both the Cool- iage and Davis spokesmen can make out a plausible argument to get votes so as to prevent the election from being thrown into the house of representatives.
