For the first time since the convention opened, a note of the same bitterness which characterized the Madison Square Garden experience crept today into the efforts of tne anti-Smith people to prevent the seemingly inevitable nomination of the New York Governor. In the face of the apparent certainty that Governor Smith will have In excess of 700 votes on the first ballot, Frank A.

Considerable oil was poured 'today en the troubled Republican waters through which the Democratic national convention is sailing toward decision on candidates and platforms.

Senator Joe Robinson, of Arkansas, -himself a likely running mate for Gov, Al Smith, assured command of the convention aa permanent chairmao and his first act was to make a fores ful plea to the delegates not to repeat the great blunder at lladisou Square Garden.

The farm bloc started a row in the Demoeratle platform committee at Its opening; session here today, protesting exclusion of a farmer from the drafting sub-committee. After ten minutes of hot debate, the farm bloo won, and TAB.

Cashman, ot the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation, was named a member of the subcommittee, which will draw the platform. The farm fight was started by John A. Simpson, of Oklahoma, member of the committee, who protested the subcommittee named by Chairman Pitt-man, of Nevada, did not Include a farm delegate. Amid applause from committee members representing farm states, Simpson moved Cashman be named on the sub-committee. Senator Glass, of Virginia, objected that the motion was out of order.

T. J. Thomas, of Nebraska, said the leaders were steamrolllng the farm bloc. "This farm question is one of the most important that will come before the sub-committee," said Thomas. "The Republican convention at Kansas City practically excluded the farmers.

We want representation here." Simpson accused Glass of resorting to a parliamentary trick. "We haven't been able to find you leaders around here or we would have obtained a place on the committee," he said. Just when the debate seemed near a breaking point, Senator Caraway, of Arkansas, who said there were many farm sympathizers on the sub-commtt-tce, suggested unanimous consent be sought to add Cashman's name. This was done while the full committee applauded: The members are: Plttman, Cashman, Caraway, Glass, Michael L. Igoe, Illinois, who Is to act as secretary; Lew Elllngham, Indiana; Senator Pat Harrison, Mississippi; Senator Bratton, New Mexico, Senator Wagner, New York; Gov.

Dan Moody, Texas, and W. W. Ray, Utah. The sub-committee was directed to retire to determine how much time should be allotted to each witness. The sub-committee agreed to give the farm organization three hours to pre sent its arguments and awarded two hours to the wets and drys.

"Throw the ras cals out!" Clauds G. Bowers; editorial writer and temporary chairman ot the Democratic National Convention, sounded this battle cry last-night as the keynote of his party's keynote for the presidential campaign. Condemning the Republican party for the corruption and scandals that "have made America a byword and a hissing in ths very alleys of the world." he pledged the Democratic party. If placed in power, to "cleanse the Augean stables from mow to manger" and "to lead the people back the old paths of constitutional liberty and equality." It was a slashing savage attack upon the Hardlng-Coolldge administration of the last eight years an indictment that for severity of tone, brilliance of expression and bitterness of Invective has had no equal an American political convention since the "crown of thorns and cross gold" made Williams Jennings Bryan his party's nominee in 1894.
