C. MARTIN BAN FRANCISCO, June 28.-—The fight over the democratic platform began today in deadly earnest, with the meeting of the reeolutions com mittee, which will write the party's declaration of principles for presenta tion to the convention Every indication was that on two and perhaps three questions the fight will be carried from the resolutions committes to the convention floor and there fought out. The wet and dry and League of Nations issue seem certain to go to the floor and the Iriwh question may also cause debate, there. ‘The first clash between the forces supporting the Wilson administra. lion and those opposing it will come in the selection of the chairman of the resolutions committee, scheduled to occur late today. Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia, the administration choice for chair man, appeared early today to have of) Montana, for the place. Walsh in| the choice of the tnsurgentas. The tneurgents, however, were confidently making claims that they would af least give Glas a close! race. i ‘The situation, a» the convention met, with reference to the three troublesome platform questions, was thts: WET AND DRY QUESTION William J. Bryan, leader of the drys, and Nebraska member of the resolutions committes, had a dry plank to present to the committee, | | which reads: “We heartily congratulate the democratic party on its splendid leadership in the submission and rat ification of the prohibition amend- ment to the federal constitution, and we pledge the party to the effective enforcement of the Volstead law, | honestly and in good faith, without | any increase in the alcoholic content of permitted beverages and without | any eveakening of any other of its) provisions.” Portmaster General Burteson and | James Nugent, of New Jersey, itad- ing wets, also had planks, varied tn language but all to the mame pur- powe-—pledging the party to favor/ modification of the Vointead law so| that the individual states may deter. | mine what they will permit in the/ way of alcoholic content.

Walsh's plank pledges the party against any compact requiring the| United States to engage in foreln| wars; impairing the power or right of self defense; endangering the Monroe doctrine, or giving other | nation @ greater vote than the United States. IKISH QUESTION The administration ts against men. tioning nd, but may concede a mention of Irish independence tn connection with the League of Na- hope of the Irish and other subject peoples for freedom. Irtshb organizations tm concert have prepared several planks em- Dhatically putting the party on reo ord as sympathizing with Ireland and favoring the recognition of the Irish republic by the United States government.
