Wilson Does Not Eliminate Self As A Candidate
NEW YORK June 18 That President Wilson did not eliminate himself as a possible nominee of the democratic convention at San Francisco in his interview published today was pointed out by politicians. Attention was directed to the fact that the president simply made the definite statement that he would not promote the ambitions of any man for the nomina tion. It was pointed out that he may have maintained his attitude of silence in order not to lessen his influence in the construction of the platform because in the view of politicians a release of these delegates by him would greatly reduce his power in the situation. Political observers also pointed out that if the president's name is actually put before the convention for the nomination for the vote of the instructed delegates, the anti-Wilson leaders will face a critical situation in view of the fact that the Wilson record comprises the record on which the party must make its stand.
