18 tOWDBN 'MEN-CLAIM 200 ON FIRST BALLOT amjaign Chiefs Name States tfwtnln' for Tllinnisftll 'Certain' for Illinoisnn in Chicago. IST COVERS COUNTRY :pthers Arc Counted In After I Usual Compliments to s 'Favorite Sons. 5 ."" J Managers or mo movtmrai id im.c Cov. Frank O. Lowden of Illinois the Republican candidate for President of fhe United States, expect to have con siderably mcra than two hundred votes Mady to be cast for him on the First Fallot. I Thffe are not their public claims, for, ti marked contrast with the method of j!en. Wood's boomers, they do not Issue any statements calculated to make the feuullc believe they have a Urge number 0t delegates. Quite to the contrary, ihey nre reticent In regard to the terri tory they believe thcr have wnT-iered and do not caro io give the enemy any fine on what to expect. S But by dint of questioning, one of the Lowden managers who was diieov tred In towrf yesterday and by the pro cess of deduction and elimination. It Is possible to say tha,t friends of the Jlllnols Governor are counting on his elng well over the two hundred mark rhen the convention Is called to order In June. 8. How much more than that they have under cover It is Impossible to say with any def Inlteness. 5 K(rL of course, Lowden Is counting on he nfty-clght votes from his native f tate. William Hale Thompson, Mayor fit Chicago, who has been holding aloof from the Lowden movement. Is said per sonally to control sixteen or seventeen of hat number. However, the understand frig here Is that the reason he has re fused to show any enthusiasm for the "Governor up this, time Is beeauje liu -ants a promise that he will be re turned to the National Committee. But, Regardless of'whether thh Is secured or fcot, the Lowden people say that by win ding the preference tho Governor is en titled to the votes of tho entire flfty Ight delegates. And. furthermore, they Say that after holding out until the end Alayor Thompson could not very well go jlnywhere else with his delegates to any advantage to himself. 1 j Ioirn and Virginia. "".Next comes Iowa. Where the State con tention Instructed Us twenty-six dele gates for Lowden. In Virginia twelve of $he fifteen men who will go-to the Chi arago conv.ntlon are under Instructions io vote for Lowden. This makes a total f nlnety-slx votes. In Missouri they have not instructed Jhe delegates, but the Lowden forces are counting on all except threo of a delega tion of thirty-six. g Of the twelvo unlnstructed delegates in gdinnesota, ten are being counted to line p behind the Illinois Governor. A. T. Hert, national committeeman Jfrom Kentucky, Is known to be for jLowden and the latter's managers are confident that the twenty-six delegates Irom that Southern State will be under She Lowden tent in Chicago. J The two anti-La Follctte delegates .elected In the Wisconsin primaries are for Lowden, according to the calcula ions of his friends, as are the two delegates who will come from the ter ritory of Porto' Rico. Of the fourteen delegates from Ala Jama andt ho twelve In Colorado, Low den managers expect to have at least 4)alf from each State, a total of thirteen. jfc)f the delegation of thirteen from Ar kansas eleven arc carried In the pocket ftneniorandums of the Lowden forces as jtelng for his candidacy. This gives a total of 193 delegates, ex. J'uslve of New England, concerning Which the Lowden manager absolutely jefused to give any details. "We shall Aiave a substantial number from New jngland In the first ballot," was as far ts he would go. K However, from sources In Connecticut jit is learned that all except John T. 3dng of that delegation of fourteen are elng credited as Lowden men. 2 Similarly it has been learned that the Illinois Governor Is hoping to have the Jfcnllre Rhode Island delegation of ten (with him by the time the convention $pe- s. This Is In spite of the fact that mome of tho delegates started out to be 4'kh Gen Wood. These two additions Svould give a total of 216. f, And, exclusive of these delegates. It Is learned that 'the Lowden forces arc doping to have all except Jlx of the Kansas delegation of twenty after the JBrst ballot, to cut into the Michigan vote Js soon as it may be released from Sen ator Hiram W. Johnson, and to get bme of the eleven votes in South Caro lina, If the delegation headed by Joseph AV. Tolbert Is seated. There are other 'jptatrs where the Lowden forces are counting on picking up delegates, but "ft Is Impossible to get them to hint at fhe Identity of such States. Representative R. C. Slemp of Vtr Jginla, - who has been for Lowden, on A'rlday In Philadelphia Indorsed the stig Jrestlon that Senator P. C. Knox was (really the man who ought to be nomi nated. How many other of the Lowden Adherents might be drawn away by the (Knox-Johnson slate suggested by Sen ator Boles Penrose Is entirely proble matical.

"If the Government can find a way to enforce regulation In size .of newspa pers," Mr. Munsey eald, "It should be Wradual, so we could carry our our con tracts.

"WouMthe remedy be In abolishing the excess profits taxes or In limiting the expenditures for advertising?" asked Senator Reed. "Decidedly the former." replied Mr. Munsey.

"I know of no concern actually spend ing money in advertising to avoid pay ing it In excess profits taxes," replied Mr. Munscy.

"It looks feasible." replied Mr. Mun sey heartily. "But I have no confi dence In limiting consumption through publishers' agreements. I know it can not be done." Mr. Munsey was asked by Senator Reed to give his views abput the big Sunday newspaper. "I have always opposed It." Mr. Mun sey said, "because it Is Illogical. A man buys a newspaper to get the news. but on Sunday he must buy five or six others with It. There should be sep arate publications for other features thai, ihe newsand whoever Vanted them could buy them In that form. That Is the English method, and lt Is better. "The Sunday newspaper Is a growth; one publisher added r. feature; others had to keep pace and the Jumbo news paper developed; not with any thaught of crowding Into other fields. I .have big newspapers, but think they should be smaller; yet I cannot make them fo if the other fellow will not. It Is the same with advertisers. If all the big adver-1 Users were limited to two columns each would be as well off as hU competitor. In considering all these things we must look to the time when unless the high consumption Mops the public must pay more for Its newspapers. The newspa-1 jper ls not a luxury but a necessity.'

Ers-o i AND NEW YORK H1DKAUJ, suinjdai, mai latlott that early exhauitum ot foresta was threatened, Senator McNary (Ore.) redd estimates from the Forest Service that even at the present' rate of consump tion the roresta would be exhausted In sixty-nine years, while at the present rate of Increase In twenty-five years the an nual cut will be doubled. "If the committee should recommend a graduated tax to limit tho size of newspapers," suggested Senator P.eed, "what do you suppose the newspaper would do, to the committee and to Con gress?" "I suppose there would bo a great howl." replied Mr. Munsey. "I think much will bo accomplished by getting the proprietors of the newspapers to gtthcr to deal with the subject The Government would be able greatly to Influence them and get results. If they refuse to cooperate, si.ow them tho picture of things as they will be twenty five ycaro hence. After all, most iren are genuinely patriotic." Mr. Ilrnrst'n Yicvts. Mr. Hearst In Ills letter pointed out that British newspapers aro one-half or one-third the size of American arI quite as successful financially. Ho es pecially ridiculed the huge Sunday news papers as not even satisfying the public that has to buy them, and ended by suying: "It Is Just as bad for a newspaper to consume too much print paper as It is for an Individual to consume too much food. And it Is almost us wicked for certain pupera to uso more print paper than U needed when other paper are compelled to suspend publication for lack of print paper, as it would be for an In dividual to gorge himself with food when lie known that his neighbor is starving for tho lack of It. "The reckless use of print paper, there fore. Is due to seirislincss and timidity, which Is unjustified and unjustlf'nble. It Is not good business and it Is not good ctnics. Assuredly it Is not good Jour- na3m. "In conclusion let me say that I be- llcve tho force of circumstances will , compel publishers to get on the new basis of dear print paper and the cheap dollar. "And the tendency tnrougn tne unuca States Is very stronsly at the present moment In tho direction of higher rates and less paper consumption. Bt If Con gress should see fit to take definite ac tion to hasten this development I would i recommend that they first take nn aver-1 age of the size of dally papers through out the United States and not allow any one paper to exceed that average with-1 ART SALES.
