NEWS REVIEW OF i CURRENT EVENTS : i w I State Preferential Primaries J Fail to Settle Presidential Nominations. ' i ■ t I WOOD wis HOST panares Johnaon'a Popular Vote the Larpsst— Knox, Whose Pesos Resolution Is Up In Ssnate, Talked of as Compromise Candidate— Polee Defeat Boistievlkl. By EDWARD W. PICKAND. The state presldsntlal* prlufartaj have nearly all been held; the fever* Isli race for delegatea Is about over. And now every one Is free to guess who will be tbe nominees of the na tional conventions, and there Is not much more to base guesses on than ' there was before. On the Republican side two devel- I opments stand out: MaJ. Gen. Leon- I ard Wood baa captured more Instruct- I ed delegatea than any one else, and I Senator Hiram Johnson haa been ac- corded the largest popular vote. Bun- I nlng a fairly strong third In both par- i tlculars Is Governor Lowdsn of Bit- i nols. But tbe deliberate plan of tha party managers has been carried oat and no candidate will go to tha Chi cago convention with anywhere near enough votes pledged to nominate. Tbe result In the Coliseum win be brought about by aklllful dickering, unless the convention can be stampeded, which Is Improbable. . The two most Important prlmarlea of the past week were In California and Indiana. In the former Johnson won s sweeping victory, bis majority over Herbert Hoover,* his only com petitor, being something Ilka 100,000. Mr. Hoover expressed himself ss sur prised by the showing ha made, con sidering the Inadequacy of hla cam paign arrangements. His supporters on the coast charged that a deal was made with the Phelaa machine In San Prandsco to deliver the Democratic vote to Johnaon. Indiana's primary law requires that a candidate must secure a majority of all votaa cast in order to gain com-, plate control of tha state's delegation. This Genaral Wood tailed to do, though bis plurality over.Johnaon was about 6,000, Wood's managers said they would Insist that the state con vention Instruct the solid delegation for tha general, but this aroused bit ter opposition in tha ether camps. On the face of practically complete re- I turns tha Wood people claimed 20 of . the district delegates and the four | delegates-at-large. Tha steel workers in the Calumst region piled up a big majority for Johnaon and he also car- , rled Kvansvtlle, but Wood won la In- 1 dlanapolls mad other Cities. Lowdsn I who was strong la the rural districts, got ahaat half as aaay votes as Joha | son, and Harding about half ss many j as ths Illinois governor. Tbe reertts in Indiana really ware not sstlsfao- j tory to any one of the Candida tea, bat I they quite sotted the political mana gers of the state, who plan to hare Indiana hold the balance of power la the convention. Msryland Republicans turned out 1n smsll numbers and gavs Wood tbe atate's preference by a vote of about two to one over Johnson. The Johnson msnsgers felt tbst ths Michigan state convention did not give tbe eeoator the full fruits of his victory la the priasary. k Instructsd the delegation to vote for htm as long as he has a chance of winning tha nomination, but refussd Ironclad In structions. tearing It to tha delegatea to decide when to switch to another , candidate.

Tbe Bopobllcaa ssnstors brought up for cooeldarsttou hi tha senate last week .the Knox rseolotton declaring tha war eaddd, aad Senator Knox opeaed the debate with a defense of i tbe measure snd a warm attack on , the policy of Prseldant Wilson. At i first tha Democrat!* aaaatora decided to fight the reootuttoif with a flllbua . tor, but ahaagad their aalada when . they learned tha was wttUag i to bava tha matter brought to aa la t sue and was determined to veto the . reeolutlon If It were adopted. It waa > understood that Mr. Wilson also . would resubmit tha VaraalUea treaty r to the senate, formally making It aa fsstSe In tbe presidential campaign. It has been that he might auggeat some reservations of his own, | but It la scarcely to be supposed these, would satisfy the Republican sena tors. * According to Secretary of State Col by, who was presumably speaking for the president, the Knox resolution la "absolutely unprecedented In the his tory of the United States" and "whol ly unconstitutional." Ha aaserta the only way to re-establish peace with Oermany Is by treaty and that the president la power! sea under the Con stitution to patch up any scheme of friendly relations or "appoint diplo matic and consular representatives until a treaty hss been ratified. Mr. Knox's long address on the resolution was heard and read with especial Interest because he has been put forward as a possible nominee of the Chicago convention. Senator Pen rose, who usually voices the opinion of the "old guard" In the Republican party, says Knox will prove the most satisfactory and most available com promise candidate If It Is found neither Wood, Johnson nor Lowden can land the prise. | ' Meanwhile the allied aupreme coun cil and the League of Nations are go ing ahead with thslr_tasks In Europe.* burn made by Dr. Andreas Blunck, German minister of Justice.
