Chicago, June 16.—Nathan William
McChesney, chairman of the Leonard

public tonight, declared as "wholly
untrue Mr. Butler’s statement regard-
ing the Wood campaign backing, and
said he protested against the “gra-
tuitous insult of which you have been
guilty.”
Mr. McChesney declared that be-
cause of the position Mr. Butler oc-
cupies “it seems incredible that you
should have allowed yourself to be
guilty of such an outrageous, unjusti-
fied. untrue and wholly malicious at-
tack.”
"Your opnosition to the popular
primary,” the letter continued, an
distrust of the people in general, is of
course well known, but should not
have led you into an attack, the lan-
guage of which is almost paranoiano
in character.

nominee, and Will H. Havs. chairman

Washington, June 16.—Plans for
bringing Senator Harding, the Re-
publican presidential nominee, into
closer touch with party leaders, par-
ticularly those of the progressive
wing, were discussed today at a
lengthy conference between the Sen-
ator and Walter F. Brown of Toledo,
his floor manager at the Chicago
convention.
The conference, it is understood, re-
sulted in a decision to send invitations
to a number of prominent progres-
sives asking them to meet with the
Republican nominee to discuss the
present situation and the coming
campaign. The list of those to be in-
vited will not be made public at the
present.
Friends of Senator Harding said
tonight that the proposed conference
would be held before the nominee’s
formal notification, which will be
some time after July 25. The Sen-
ator, it was said, hopes to utilize the
views expressed by the party leaden
in the preparation of his speech at
acceptance. While some of the meet-
ings may be held before Mr. Hard-
ing leaves Washington Monday the
greater portion are expected to take ,
place while he is on his vacation.
The visit of Mrs. Brown today was
regarded by political observers as sig-
nificant. In 1912 he was chairman at
the Ohio state progressive committee
and was active in the campaign for
Theodore Roosevelt. He. was a dele-
gate to the recent Chicago convention,
and after the defeat in the state pri-
mary of Harry M. Daugherty of Col-
umbus the Senator’s campaign man-
ager as a delegate-at-large was se-
lected as Mr. Harding's floor manager.
Brown Hopeful
"I think that I will find that the
Progressives will be behind Senator
Harding,” Mr. Brown said after leav-
ing the Senator.
Indications that Mr. Harding in-
tends to ascertain the views of all
leaders in the party was contained in
his announcement today of a confer-
ence last night attended by Senator
Lodge, Republican Senate leader;
Brandegee of Connecticut; Fall of
New Mexico and Smoot of Utah. Thia
meeting, at which the Republican
platform was discussed, is expected to
be the forerunner of many similar
informal meetings.
The candidate made public a letter
today to Secretary of State Smith of
Ohio withdrawing his position for re-
nomination as the Republican candi-
date for Senator at the August state
primary.
Shortly before the Senator left the
office General Pershing called and re-
mained in conference with him about
fifteen minutes. “It was merely a
social call,” said the General. “The
Senator and I are very good friends.”
