NEA Service Writer | Washington.—Political conventions | have as. their primary business the| nomination of presidential candi-| dates and as their secondary business the framing of a platform. . But there are always a lot of mo-| tions and clownish antics to be gone; through which drag a convention out! two or three days longer than scems vitally necessary, You must remem- ber that one function of a convention} is that of a ballyhoo festival with| which the party attracts the atten- tion of the country. Few delegates would care to ar- rive and turn around toward home almost immediately. Nor would the! local hotel men and others who have put up good money stand for a con-} vention of only one or two days. | * # & | SITUATIONS IN CONTRAST | This year the Republicans probably’ will have trouble stretching out their show, whereas the Democrats, with a flock of candidates—real and so- called—have taken special measures| to keep theirs condensed within four days if possible. | The principal variation from rou- | tine convention procedure will be} the meeting of the Democratic plat- form committee just prior to the con- vention itself, a device to save time. * % #, THE WAY THEY WORK Otherwise the procedure of the two conventions is about the same. They adopt the rules of the House of Rep- resentatives to work with, plus cer- tain traditional deviations which in- clude the two-thirds and unit rules in the case of Democrats. A convention is first called to order by the chairman of the party's na- tional committee. Each session, after the call, is launched by a prayer. That touch of piety is always impres- sive, if only by contrast. I remem- ber that at Madison Square Garden in 1924 the Democrats rotated Pro- testant clergymen, priests and rabbis | until they had used about all there were in New York. And the conven- tion was in the throes of the bitter- est, meanest religious fight ever seen at a national political meeting. After a short speech by the na- tional chairman and the reading of | the call for the convention the first adjournment is taken. * % & FIRST CHANCE FOR FIGHT At the following session a resolu- tion is passed to adopt the House) rules and the rules of the last con-| vention. Then a list of temporary of- | ficers is read for the convention’s ap- proval and it is always possible for someone to rise then and precipitate a fight over who is to be temporary chairman and keynoted, as William Jennings Bryan rose against Alton B. Parker in 1912. | If that doesn’t happen the tem-| porary chairman is brought to the chair forthwith and usually delivers Eichkopf of Mandan, Rt. Rev. Cuth- bert Goeb, abbott of Richardton Ab- bey, and Joseph F. Brockland, St. Louis, Mo., trustee of the National Catholic Central Society of America. The importance of prayer in the growth of Christian life was stressed by Rev.° Hilderbrand. Family life has been lost sight of by the present generation, he said. Until this situa- tion is remedied, unrest and selfish- ness in the world will continue. The world has lost the spirit of sacrifice and does not hear the cry of the suffering, Brockland said. an address of welcome. Because of the radio audience, the keynote ‘speeches, which used to be delivered in the afternoon, undoubt- edly will be made at night. Keynote speeches are mighty in- ‘spirational efforts in which one party is positively identified with the hosts of heaven and the other painted as the forces of darkness and the great enemies of the poor. They are sup- posed to rouse frequent outbursts of pandemonium. . * * % DOWN TO BUSINESS Actual business begins after the Doltical Follies 91937 Want Quick Action In Fight on Hoppers Fargo, June 15—(P)—Efforts to arouse all interests in North Dakota keynoting, perhaps the same evening. If it hasn't been done in the after- noon, the roll of states is called for each delegation’s member to each of the six committees, chief of which ‘are those on resolutions (platform), credentials, rules and permanent or- in a campaign to secure federal aid in fighting the grasshopper menace was launched by the Greater North Dakota association Tuesday. “Directors of the association have become convinced the situation is critical,” said M.

We are asking every Chamber of Commerce in North Dakota to wire their delegations, both at the Repub- lican national convention in Chicago and our senators and congressmen in Washington!” Several Achievement Programs Are Planned | sears Homemakers in several Missouri Slope counties will stage their achieve- ment day programs in the next two according to Grace DeLong, state leader of home demonstration. Grant county’s will be staged at Carson June 21, Kidder’s at Steele June 24 and Wells’ at Fessen- den June 25. Burleigh county’s program will be conducted in the World War Memor- jal building. and June 23, city auditorium here puiore. f8. ganization, The second day begins with rendi- tion of the “Star-Spangled Banner” by some celebrated female singer and receipt of the credentials committee report by the temporary chairman. Sometimes a floor row then breaks out over which of one or more sets of contesting delegates shall be seated. * ee OFFICIAL AT LAST If the platform committee isn't ready to report a distinguished mem- ber of the party may be asked to speak. With good luck, even a convention where there's a lively contest can get its platform out of the way and nom- inating speeches started by the third day and a presidential nomination made by the fourth day, with the vice presidential nomination follow- ing immediately.
