Davis Says He Seeks No New York Party Dictate
John W. Davis, Democratic presidential nominee, says he has no desire to dictate New York State Democratic platform. He notes states may write their own planks and denies reports he will return to curb a clash with Gov. Alfred E. Smith over an anti Ku Klux Klan plank.

In Minneapolis on June 26 the Minnesota Federation of Labor endorsed Senator Robert La Follette for president by viva voce vote after defeating a substitute motion to endorse William Z. Fi and Ten Girlow. It called on the American Federation of Labor to endorse La Follette and condemned the St Paul convention for its communist complexion. The federation, considered conservative, signals strong Minnesota support for fighting Dole and indicates broader labor backing for La Follette.
