--Among the many problems con-
fronting Davis and his advisers is
.x‘ho selection of
chairman to succeed Cordell Hull of
:Tennessee. It is said that the pres-
ent chairman desires to retire. and
it is the custom of the nominee to
select the man to take his place. The
chairman serves as campaign man-
bger. so the appointment is one of
the most important decisions which
the candidate is called upon to
make.
, It was at first reportedthat Frank
L. Polk of New York. at whose home
Davis is a guest. would be the suc-
cessor to Chairman Hull. Though it
is quite certain that the post was of-
fered hint. Polk. who was at one
time Secretary of State under “’ood-
vrow Wilson. declined. it appears
that there is some disposition in
the national columittee to have the
chairman come from one of their
regularly elected members. How-
ever. the chances are that it Davis
wishes to take some one from out.
side he will win his point.
One report today was that Clem
Shaver of West Virginia. who man-
aged the convention campaign for
~ the former Ambassador to the Court
of St. James‘. might become national
chairman. This would be in keep.

campaign chief from the me State
