But the word pped through the crowds and into the candidates' headquarters and to the cars of party offcials that \Bryan lins started,\ and for the moment he becama the biggest figure in the convention pleture. , Bryan took a definite stand on three issues. He declared for war of annihila- tion on the wets, for a labor plank which would provide for investigation of all industrial disputes the same as interna- tional disputes are investigated under the Bryan treaties, with a \cooling off\ period, and against the injection of, the League of Nations into the campaign as the paramount issue. 'The latter, of course, brings him into direct conflict with President Wilson, who wants the election to be a \solemn referendum\ .on the treaty. He also said he felt sure a plank pledging action against the prof- iteers would be adopted. , There was a noticable fighten-, ing up of the crowd as Bryan awung into his discussion of the treaty. He said he had mo plank of Hix own, and that his main idea with regard to the League of Nations was that it should be seen to by the convention \that there is no sham battle in this country this fall.\ \If I mistake not,\ he said, \the peo- ple of this country and of the world are tired of war. I want this convention to let the country know we will do every- thing possible to make this the last war.\ Bryan pointed to warlike conditions which still exist throughout the work! and to the great military appropriations that have been asked of Congress. also to universal military training measures- \to instrnct the youth of our land in the art of killing their fellow men\-as indicating that conditions seem worse now tham \before the world was made safe for democracy.\ \If this is to be the result of the war we cannot claim a victory.\ he said. \But.\ he thundered, \I do not want the treaty made m campaign issue.
