More than one third of the delegates are} made up of them. At times the floor of the convention hall seems fairly to burst with femininity. The Democrats were first’to grant to women equal representation on the national committee and” they also have led the ‘way in providing that of the delegates’ at large from a state one half shall be women. This is very gratifying to the suf- Sragists, but it has brought untold pain and agony of mind to the old line politicians. They declared to- day that ‘the Democrats are reaping the whirlwind of their seeds of gen- erosity. “It is impossible to bargain with. the women-and, therefore ‘it is impossible to nominate. a candidate by the old-processes which havé served both parties so faithfully’ in the past. : P The popular band tunes at the conventions these ‘long June days and nights are: ‘Linger awhile.” yh, dear, what can the matt-- We want to go home.” “Three o'clock in the Morning.” And; most popular of all: "I'm tired; so ‘very tired.” Colonel Jack Shuff, of Cincinnati, one of the original Jimmy Cox men in 1920 and. just ‘as enthusiastic for the former governor today, has com- posed a new convention song. It is sung to the tune of “The Old Gray Mare, She Ain't What She Us- ed to be,” and it runs something like this. “If you would search my once fat potketbook, “Once fat pocketbook, “Once fat pocketbook, “If you would search my once fat pocketbook, “You wouldn't find a damn there.” cent Members of the state delegations instructed for McAdoo have been receiving sheafs of.telegrams from home, telling them to “stickfast’* and not to give up the ship. The Texas delegations in particular has been bombarded with messages. One of the telegrams received by a Lone Star delegate ‘contained a con- fidential postscript which said: “We will send you a lot telegrams needed.” ‘The ‘delegate sent a heated and pertinent reply. “Keep your telegrams,’ “but’ send us the mone: more if. you think they are "he sald, Senator Oscar W.

During the last few days, Joe Tumulty, former secretary to Presi- dent Wilson, has been seen confer- ring with delegates on the conven- tio floor. n Joe's home state of New Jersey has been voting solidly for Al Smith ever since :t gave Governor Silzer, of the mosquito state, a few com- Plimentary ballots. The tall Texam with the “loud speaker” voice has been’ identified and he has become a great favorite with’ the convention. He is State Senator John Davis of Dallas. The convention is never happier than when Senator Davis is lending a hand at calling the roll. His boom- ing voice makes the rafters shudder and shake. Once in every convention it hap- pens. But it didn’t happen here un- tli about the 50th ballot. One of the volunteer reading clerks pro- nounced Arkansas like he would Kansas. ‘Chere followed the im- mediate and inevitable rebuke from the Ozarks. “Call it Arkansaw,” yelled a dele. gate, “and we will tell you how we vote.” Here is script: Another favorite tune of the con- vention 1s ‘Tipperary.’ “The long, long trail ing into its own. a musical program post- also is com- NEW YORK, July 5.—The dele- gates have begun to “walk out’ on the Democratic show at Madison Square Garden. They have two complaints. One is that life in New York is entirely too hectic. The other is. that the old money is giving out. Many convention visitors came to proceedings began. It seems to them SUNDAY, JULY 6, 1924. they have been here for ages. ‘The average ‘visit to New York in timeg of normalcy is seldom more-than 4 week. Therefore it is not surpris. ing that there should be a general exodus at this time. = It was the same at San Eecioce four years ago. The New York dele: gation was the first to leave the con: vention flat on its back at the Goj* en Gate. In that instance, theaivew Yorkers could not bear being away from Broadway any longer. So it al] depends upon the point of view. With the unit rule in force in ™many delegations, it is not necessary for all delegates to remain to the bitter, end. New York, for instance, has 90 votes in this convention. It always has been cast by one dele. gate. Consequently, why have, more than one delegate present? There has been some confusion among the delegates and spectatorg over seemingly rulings of Senator Walsh, the permanent chairman. It has appeared to the uninitiated tha¢ on one occasion Senator’ Walsh “haq upheld the unit rule and in other case has smashed it.
