The Harvard Democratic Club has taken up the gauntlet cast in its face by the newly formed "La Follette for President" Club. Challenged by that organization to disclose its list of members so as to enable the reported revolt in its ranks to take place, it has done so and for five days the Democrats in their turn challenge the La Follette Club to avail themselves of the opportunity thus presented to draw the Democratic Club members to their own "Progressive" battle standard.
Democrats Defy La Follette Club
C. P. Morehouse '25, President of the Democratic Club, said last night that his organization defies the La Follette Club to Publish the names of all former Democratic Club members who have been enticed away to the "Progressive" ranks. He said that six or seven habitually vacillating men would be conceded but no more.
Tonight at 7.30 o'clock the first meeting of the year will be held in the Faculty room of the Union. Seventy members are expected to come.
Mr. Frank Hudson, sent especially for the purpose by the New York Democratic headquarters, will address the meeting in an attempt to secure the affiliation of the Harvard Democratic Club with the John W. Davis for President College League. The suggestion will be voted upon after Mr. Hudson's speech.
The meeting will be open to all men in college interested in the candidacy of John W. Davis, whether members of the club or not.
