EAST AND SOUTH LAFOLLETTE A Wheeler Declares He Finds Lack of Davis Sentiment in New England. The La Follette-Wheeler campaign managers are directing their atten- tion to New England and the South. Cofncident with the announcement that Senator Wheeler of Montana, vice presidential candidate, after opening the campaign with a Labor day address in Boston, would speak in Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Is- Jand and Connecticut before swing- ing through New York State on a tour westward, comes the statement that a regional headquarters is to be established in the South. The loca- tion has not been determined. Plans for coralling votes in all sec- tions of the country are under dis- cussion at conferences which got un- der way here yesterday. Senator La Follette and his running mate talked over the situation yesterday with David K. Niles, acting head of the speakers’ bureau. Attorney General Ekern of Wiseonsin, who is in charge of the solicitation of campaign funds from the public, was here today for a conference with the candidates. Tomorrow John M. Nelson, national campaign manager, with headquar- ters at Chicago, will be in Washing- ton. He will discuss the political sit- uation with Senators La Follette and Wheeler, and with the committee which is assisting him in directing the campaign Arrange New England Plans. Mr. Niles left for Boston today to complete arrangements for the address by Senator Wheeler there and in other New England cities. The Senator will speak in Worcester, Mass, in the cvening of Labor day, and, according 10 present plans, the next evening in Manchester, N. H. Other New Eng- land dates’ are indefinite. Yesterday's meeting between Senator La Follette and his running mate was the first in nearly a month. Mr. Wheeler, who had been priming him- self for active campaigning at a quiet ehore resort on Cape Cod, returned to the capital last night. No Davis Sentiment. After he had talked over the situa- tion with Mr. La Follette, the Montana Senator declared he was optimistic over the outlook. When in New England, he said, he received reports from Democrats and Republicans, as well as supporters of the independent ticket, and was ‘“amazed,” he added, at the apparent lack of sentiment for- the election of John W. Davis, the Demo- cratic presidential nominec. *There is absolutely no in New England for Davi: ator Wheeler. “The fi, £oIng to be between Coolidge and us. ‘We will run away ahead of the Demo- cratic ticket, and if our supporters can get their force lined up and or- ganized we will beat the Republi- cans in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.” Senator Wheeler said he was “sur- prised to find so much sentiment against the Republican ticket” in the New England States he had ited during his vacation. There is resent- ment against corruption in public of- entiment said Sen- t there is fice, he said, adding that throughout the campaign he intended to stress this issue. Mr. Wheeler made the prediction that there would he a deadlock in the electoral college, throwing the election of a President into Congress. If this should occur, and Dawes and Bryan were the two men to be voted upon by the Senate for Vice Presi- dent, Mr. Wheeler said he would sup- port Bryan. Declining to comment on the accep- tance speech of the Democratic vice presidential nominee beyond remark- ing that Mr. Bryan was a ‘“progres- sive who might carry the West and Northwest at the head of a ticket” but unable to make much headway in that territory when linked up with a presidential candidate “who has rep- resented Wall street interests.” Mr. Wheeler did take a slap at the speech delivercd by Gen. Dawes in accepting the Republican vice presidential nom- ination. “If that’s the kind of speeches he is going to make,” said Mr. Wheeler, “I hope he keeps them up. Every time he speaks he will lose thousands of votes for the Republican ticket. Some folks fail to realize that the war Pittsburgh-Florida Fruit | .
