The southern states didn't want it abolished. Thrv hadn't enough He|« gates to give them a convention ma jority. but thrv did have enough 1r. prevent any aspirant, to whom they might object, from getting two-thirds Thus they exercised at least a veto power. Several southerners predict ed to Bennett Champ that, if he got hat rule abolished, sooner or later he'd be sorry—that he'd want to head off some nomination or anothei and that a plain majority rule would make it impossible for him to do it.

If the rule siiII had prevailed. Wal lace, as previously remarked, certain ly couldn't have been nominated. It doesn't necessarily follow that, in that event. Bankhead would havt won, but probably he would: it's ;i ; fi\r guess that the delegates would have switched to him as the second strongest candidate.
