(Special Correspondent of the Eve- ning World.) @AN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 8 (Copyright, 1920)—Anybody who at- tended both the Republican and Dem- ocratic conventions will always be asked whether or not one or the other or both of them were controlled or bossed. Of course the Democrats point enthusiastically to the forty-four bal- lots and to the prolonged debate on the platform as evidence that the del- egates worked out thelr choices here without dictation or undue influence.

No, the delegates who were for MaAdoo were converted by those infinitely painstaking processes of persuasion which are known only to those who have worked on @ con- vention floor in the heat of battle. The West. finally swung to Cox, and the speech made by Senator “Pat” Harrison of Mississippi, nominating Cox, together with the skilfully pte- sented arguments concerning Cox's fine record as Governor of Ohio dur- ing three terms, helped create, #0 far as Cox himself was concerned, an at, Mosphere entirely favorable. The deadlock and struggle came because of the wets who were espousing Cox. The Democrats. must be given|t credit, however, for one viece of po- Htical wisdom which the Repubjicans should have followed. “The managers of the McAdoo forces virtually en- tered into an agreement that the choice must be McAdoo or Cox.
