e AY STATEG.0.P. Five Planks Rejected by Com mittee at State Con- vention. *REFLECTIONS ON LODGE” v Coolidge, as Chairman, Points to Waxing Prosperity and Party Success. Py the Associated Press. OSTON, September 23.—The repub- lican state convention assembled to- day to adopt a platform upon which tienry Cabot Lodge will seek re-elec- ion to the United States Senate and Channing H. Cox a second term as sovernor. They were renominated in the primaries. Five planks, proposed by Joseph Walker, who opposed Senator Lodge in the republican primary, were not reported by the resolutions commit- tee. On behalf of the cafimittee it was explained that were any one of the five adopted it would cast a reflection on Senator Lodge. One Walker resolution urged the party to go on record as approving President Harding’s veto of the bonus, which the senator voted to override. Asother favored declaration of condi- tions mpon which America would en- ter the league of nations, against which Senator Lodge waged a c- dessful fight. The remaining planks alled for a more scientiffc tariff and for unseating of Senator Newberry «nd opposed any change in the prohi- bition act. Vice President Chairman. Vice President Coolidge was chair- %an of the convention. Reviewing present-day conditions, which he sald constituted an era of prosperity, he asserted they would ‘not have been possible without the foundation laid by the govern- ment in its economic policy at home and its peaceful policy abroad. The promises® of the republican narty, he said, “have bLeen and are being performed. Your government under your party has not failed. It has not defaulted: it has succeeded. It has responded ond prophecy— beyond expectation.” The tariff law he described as the result of a policy to do “the best that could be done under the condi- tions as they existed.” “It is scarce nineteen months now since this administration came into wer,” he said. “Who would have red "to claim then that so muc could be done in so short a time Who would have thought that agri- culture would now be well on the way to prosperity; that mills and ‘actories would be opening up again hat in the great basic industries of steel and textiles wages would be ad- ancing: that the building trade would be active; the consumption of raw materials and our exports and imports far above any former peace- time period, with private obligations thoroughly liquidated, credit _abun- Yant, interest reasonable, and. in gen- ~ral, a great business revival sweep- ing over the country Wise Economy Needed. “Before us lies the imperative need a_wise economy to meet a deficit which threatens to exceed $600,000,000, the bett ordering of our industrial tions, the establishment of a_more ough realization that in a broad way economic justice does prevail, and ne continued determination to support the cause of ordered government and the authority of the law.” The new wariff was given principal attention as a campaign issue by Senator Lodge. “The great question to be decided in thls election,” he said. “is not whether we approve or disapprove certain items in the tariff bill, but whether we are prepared to abandon the policy of pro- tectfon. “Despite the depreciated currencies (of other countries) the average of rates in operation in the whole bill are lower than the average of the Payne-Aldrich bill, and I believe of any republican protective tariff bill hitherto passed. We shall have under this new bill a larger amount coming in under the free list than ever before in any protective bill."” The senator referred to an anuual saving of $1,600.000,000, which _this republican administration has made in the routine expenditures of the gov ernment, and to passage of the revenu bill, “which has reduced taxes $18, 000,000.” APPROPRATON LS . TO BE MADE READY Subcommittees to Start Work to Be in Shape if Specigl Ses- sion Is Called. 1f a special session of Congress ie called to start Novemier 15, as is now expected, Chairman Madden of | tion card from Wardman Park Hotel.!longer had any right to use that the House appropriations committee will have several, at least, of the big appropriation bills ready for con- sideration in the special session. At any rate, he expects to have all of the appropriation January 10, so that the Senate will have ample time to act upon them before March 4, and there will be no need for any extra session on ac- count of appropriation bills. The preliminary work of preparing the appropriation bills for subcom- mittee consideration will be cem- pleted next week. Chairman Madden is_remaining over in Washington to taKe personal .charge of thiS pre- . minary work. Beginning November 10, Chairman Madden will have five subcommittees to start work on five of the biggest appropriation bills, so that they will bs ready to report promptly in the special session, or, at any rate, when the regular_session starts on De cember 4. He will work only five cemmittees at a time, and when the first flve bills are reported to the House another five subcommittees will start work on five other bills. The District of Columbia appropria- tion bill may be included in the firkt tch. The' first five subcommittees hich will get to work are those on the Treasury, the Navy, the Army, Agriculture and Commerce and Labor or the District of Columrbia. KERENSKY FOLLOWERS EXECUTED BY.

It marks the beginning of ten days of penitence, ending With the sacred Yom Kippur, the day of atonement. Stores conducted by Jewish firms were closed throughout the city to- day, and persons of the Hebrew faith in all departments of governmental and business service were given the day as a religlous holiday. ~Jews in the Army, Navy and Marine Corps were granted leave of absence from their commands. The synagogues were crowded at two services this morning, one be- ginning about 7 o'clock and the other at 10.
