Old Party Rule Stays In Force As Walsh Is Elected
Chicago June 28 The Roosevelt controlled rules committee abandoned the century old two thirds rule and the Democratic convention unanimously approved its abrogation to govern nominee selection. Senator Thomas Walsh was elected permanent chairman over Jouett Shouse as Roosevelt factions pressed for a sweep to back New York Governor. The convention split over a prohibition plank with long debate, while Roosevelt Democrats pushed late into the night aiming to secure the nomination by a two thirds vote. The tally showed the Roosevelt faction well ahead of a majority but still short of the 770 needed to nominate against Hoover and Curtis in November.
