NEW BRITAIN MRS, MINER SCORES WOVEMENT IND. A.R. Connecticut Woman Lends Force to Mrs. Cook's Side Washington, April 10 'he stir ereated by the circumstances of the sudden withdrawal of Mrs, Willlam Cumming Story of New York as candidate for president general was still_evident among delegates to the {annual congress the Daughters of the American R&olution today as they voted on the two remaining ean- didates and their respective tickets, Mrs, Anthony *Wayne Cook of Pennsylvania” and Mrs, G. Wallace Hanger of Washington, were the two candidates for president general left in the field today as the result of Mrs. Story's withdrawal immediately after she wasg placed in nomination last night. Her declaration from the floor that she was withdrawing in faver of Mrs, Cook “in repudiation of a cam- paign based upon defamation of the character of a candidate,” threw the convention into an uproar during the nomination session. Mrs, Cook there- upon announced that she was ‘‘per- fectly willing to share Mrs, Story's votes with Mrs. Hanger." Mrs. Story's allusion to defamation of character was followed by a state- ment {ssued by the Pennsylvania dele- gation branding as false and libclous an anonymous letter circulated among members before the congress conven- ed which, it was said, reflected on the war record of Mrs, Cook’'s son. The statement said affidavits were held at the Pennsylvania headquarters which proved the falsity ,of the anonymous letter which also has been denounced by Mrs. Cook as untrue. Mrs. George Maynard Miner of Connecticut, retiring president-gen- gral, also denounced the circulation | of the letter in a statement declaring: sho could not “condemn too strongly such a low underhand method of at- tack, of which I cannot helieve any member of our soclety would be gublty.” Possibility of a deadlock between the two remaining candidates and their tickets loomed today with talk of a ‘dark horse’ ‘enlivening the conts A scattering vote for Mrs.| Story in spite of her withdrawal might block the way to a necessary majority, it was pointed out, for either candidate.
