Glynn Opposes Any Convention In State Politics
Governor Glynn held talks with William Osborn, head of the Democratic State Committee, about next week's state-wide conference he will skip. He later rode with George Perkins of the Progressive party on Bear Mountain Park plans. Osborn favors a large primary field but hints at a selective, balanced ticket and a possible preferential slate, with pressure from Tammany to convene again. Glynn said he would not seek nomination and avoided crossing bridges for a renomination. He attended a private dinner and planned to attend an international polo match.
