X Special Dispateh to The Star. DES MOINES, Towa, March 3.—Iowa is certain to send a delegation to the Republican national convention which will be stanchly for Frank O. Lowden for the presidential nomination. This was clearly indicated Saturday when so many county conventions either in- structed their delegates to the State convention for Lowden or indorsed him by _resolution. The preparations for the State con- vention here next Wednesday bear out the assumption that Iowa is for Lowden will be chosen without effective opposi- tion to Lowden instructions. Each congressional district chooses two delegates to the national conven- chdoses seven. The sclection of the seven delegates at large naturally in- terests the convention most. It scems assured that delegates at large will include both old-time friends of Lowden and leaders of the Lowden- for-President Club in Iowa. They also will represent the Iowa advocates of adequate farm relief, both men and women. A general agreement appears to have been reached that Frank J. Lund of Webster City, manager of the Lowden Club, and Representative Gilbert N. Haughen of the fourth district, co- author of the McNary-Haugen bill, shall be two of the seven delegates at large. C.
