A volunteer construction corps of platform v builders was. busy today whittling out' planks which they be lieved would meet the needs of the fvmocratic national ' convention in expressing its views as to prohibition enforcement. Leaders, including Chairman Cummings of the national committee, were in agreement that this question would monopolize the centre of the convention stage until it was settled. Mr. Cummings expressed the opinion that It would be the only issue to; be carried to the convention floor, j Y ' Informal discussion by delegates shows several schools of thought among the anti-bone dry advocates as to how the question should be approached. They vary from the State's rights stand taken by Governor Edwards of New Jersey, to proposals that congress be urged to proceed directly toward modifying the one-half ot 1 per cent, alcoholic content restriction of the Volstead enforcement act so as 'to lift the ban from beers and light wines. , . . The most pronounced movement at the moment, however, and the one which appeared today , to have taken the most definite shape was that originating In . Washington and designed to offer a basis on which anti-bone dry' forces could concentrate. Personal , liberty will be the slogan of advocates of this compromise plank. f ' ; ' . , A The Washington plank ' was drafted In circles in close touch with the - administration. It. is understood to advocate In general terms a liberalization of the Volstead act. Specific mention of wine, beer or any other beverage by name is omitted. , . . t . , . , ( . The plank will be put forward as representing the opinion of many senators and representatives, and its framers hope to be able to claim for 'it. the backing of Presldeiit Wilson himself. It was drawn after con ference In-. wWefciore than; one member -of the cabinet shared, it was said, and inTwlfich antlrbdne dry senators took a leading part.

CANDIDATES CANCEL JOINT DEBATE PLANS: Accidental Meeting in , Jones boro Forestalls Their Managers AGREEMENT FORMALIZED IN GOVERNOR'S OFFICE Both Appeal? To Democrats To Accept Agreement "With out Prejudice" , . RALEIGH, June 25. Forestalling their managers by a few hours, demo cratic ; gubernatorial : candidates O. Max Gardner and Cameron Morrison, meeting by accident in the little town of Jonesboro, ; Lee county yesterday afternoon, agreed - between them selves to cancel the joint debate scheduled for Raleigh next Monday night. Their agreement was ratified last night at a: 30 when their cam paign directors met in conference with Governor Bickett and formally agreed, Jn the interest of party har mony, . to halt" the procedure "with out prejudice to either candidate." Almost- unbroken pressure was brought to bear, upon the candidates themselves, upon their managers, and upon the governor to intervene in behalf of party harmony to call off the discussion.' The headquarters of both candidates here were cluttered with : telegrams j protesting against the debate, coming from men of high legree and low, with here and there request for reserved " seats if th e hing should actually be allowed to happen . Governor Bickett found his desk- littered . with like messages when he returned' to the city yester-1 day. ; -i'- .--v ; -v ' -- Managers J. Crawford Biggs and Meriot Clarksdn met in : the gover nor's office at 10 o'clock yesterday morning to arrange a truce, in. re sponse to the chief executive's letter of the evening before appealing to them to call a halt in the program. The governor was nit in the city, and the 'managers retired, after making arrangements to return at 8 o'clock in the evening for further . confer ences, when tney arrived there was nothing to say, more than to repeat what their principals had already said. - i'.''vv .,' -.'; :-.-' v; .-'7.-. ,,; The governor gavt out a statement following a briefconference, Includ ing the letter .w.hlch ti had addressed jointly to te tw managers OTPwed- nesday, " the 'joint telegram ' from Messrs. , Gardner and Morrison to their managers informing them? of their agreement, and ' commending them both for "placing the welfare of. the i democratic party high and above their own personal feelings." Neither -Mr. Clarkson nor Judge Biggs had any statement, to make.; Those who were anticipating ver bal 'combat at close range gave up hope of an evening of divertisement when' they read yesterday morning that Governor Bickett had added the weight of his influence to the grow ing volume of protest against the de bate. It was almost a foregone con clusion that the' next step would be the announcement of a cancellation, although few expected the two can didates to get together themselves down in the sand hills and arrange a truce without the assisting offices of their managers, who signed the fo rensic agreement here Tuesday night. Somewhat or the dramatic at taches to. the story that comes from Sanford of the chance meeting of the two men who occupy so much of the public attention just now. It is re lated that Mr. Gardner drove into Jonesbora while Mr. Morrison was engaged in a speech in the only avail able : building in the town. He drove on through to a nearby village and made a speech himself and re turned. They met in the middle of the principal street of the town. There was hearty hand shaking, and most apparent good will between them. . The citizenry of the town turned out en masse to witness the, momentous doings, and cheered, lus tily when it kas announced that neither baa any desire to carry on with the arrangement. There was more hand shaking, mutual assur ances that the one would heartily support the other, after the second primary declares the nominee, and they again went ' their ways apart .Their personal press agents also de clared a truce and collaborated In (Continued on Paste 7.)
