Chicago June 18 Democrats moved into the Congress Hotel as candidates for the presidential nomination established headquarters for the forthcoming convention. Roosevelt's campaign manager James A Farley arrived to organize the push to defeat Jouett Shouse for permanent chairman. Shouse planned a races appearance and radio address while Roosevelt forces backed Senator Thomas J Walsh for chair. The convention begins June 27 with a primary clash noted between Roosevelt loyalists and anti Roosevelt factions. Shouse predicted the platform would modify the 18th Amendment to satisfy dry states while allowing states to withdraw from prohibition. He emphasized Democrats would frame a plan to let Congress set liquor sale details for states choosing restoration.
