PIXXHm S2FJ5U NOTICE Lincoln Coit Tells Lions His Impressions Oi GOP Convention Lincoln Colt. Colorado delegate to the recent Republican national convention, told hla impression of events behind the meetings for Lions club members Tuesday, Because a a E. Dewey claimed such a large number of votes, before the convention was even underway, Mr. Coit said that all of the other candidates back ers were frankly working for second choice nominations The Philadelphia Enquirer newspaper wai credited by Mr. Coit as being quite a factor" in the Dewey nomination, since it was openly pro-Dewey and was delivered to hotel rooms of the delegates each morning Each of the candidates had effective organizations, Mr.

Coit said, but he particularly pointed to Dewey's group. Each of the anti-Dewey delegates to the convention was approached many times during the meetings by a Dewey supporter, he said. Telling of Rtassena organization, Mr. Coit said that Slassen headquarters had divided the United States into sections, with one man responsible for each section, and under him, men responsible for Idles or sub-states Slassen headquarters vvoikers made tabulations constantly, so that they always knew' almost exactly how the vote would go, the speaker said. 1 Among surprises in the convention were the lack of a Vandenberg boom and the selection of Earl Warren as vice piesident, according to Mr.

Coit The majority of the delegates believed that Dewey's choice of a running mate would be Charles Ilaileck. Mi. Coit said There was a rumor at the convention that the vice presidency had been promised to four separate contenders, Mr Coit added. Speaking of Sen. Eugene Milli-kin, head of the Colorado delegation Mr Colt; said that, altho Senator Millikin was a Taft man.

he never personally attempted any pressure to change votes of delegates. At the time when Coloradoans suggested nominating Senator Millikin as a favorite son candidate, the senator refused to run. because he had committed himself to Taft and felt that he would be disloyal to accept a favorite son nomination. Dr. Heman Bull, returned vacationer, spoke briefly of his trip, and Lion Walter Simon of Denver and Lion Harold Rider, president of the Ojai, Calif club, brought greetings from their groups Other guests were Fred Barker, Denver; Walter Terry, North Michigan.
