No Money Plank in Platform Says Bryanites Win
In St Louis on July 9 William Z Bryan and followers thwarted a gold standard plank in the Democratic platform after a long late night committee session. The Parker faction could have pressed for a gold plank but apparently halted the fight. Judge Parker is expected to issue a declaration in a later acceptance letter. The platform, a compromise, pleases various interests and was adopted unanimously by the committees. It signals Bryan wing concessions without endorsing conservative positions and notes the absence of any mononomics emphasis in finance.
