MERRY QUIPS ABOUND Choice of Vice President Increases in Numbers as Friends Arrive. BY ROBERT T. SMALL. CLEVELAND, June 10.—Delegates ®od visitors to the Republican na- tional convention had just about got acclimated when the first session opened in the beautiful public hall down by the lake. This is the firs o. conclave held away from Chicago in twenty long years. Chi- g0 had become a sort of habit with the followers of Lincoln. They had ded to go there again this year when President Coolidge stepped in he preferred Lake Erie to higan. So Lake Erie got re verdict by a handsome majority. It has been difficult to convinee some of the visitors that there reall a lake down by the convention hall For three days the weather was cloudy, smoky and murky and shy Nominate Woman | For Second Place, | Delegates Suggest By the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 10— Since the men seem unable to agree on a favorite son for a vice presidential candidate, why not offer a favorite daughter to the country?’ Mrs. Genevieve Allen of San Francisco, suggested last night at a dinner of the Woman's party. The suggestion as greeted with prolonged cheering from sev- eral hundred women present. Mrs. Allen later discussed with various women delegates from California_the advisability of of- fering a woman candidate. They agreed it was a good idea, but seemed hesitant to take the lead in the movement. Corridor gossip that Mrs. Medill McCormick was planning to spring a woman candi- date as a compromise was denied at her apartment. Several men leaders who heard of the suggestion expressed the view, that the time was not far distant when one major party would have a woman candidate for ent.

It has been agreed that Dr. Burton's great chance would come if he should “set the delegates afire” with his speech nominating the i'resident. There have been so many admoni tions to “keep cool—und ‘oolidge, however, that maybe the delegates can't be kindled into flame. It has not been difficult to “keep 001" in Cleveland.

Mr, Hamlin is the new national commit- teeman from the Rocky Mountain State. and is a great favorite with all Jeaders_of the G. O. P. - Mr. Hamlin “comsented” to run after a consultation with Postmaster General Harry New. It came about n this way: Mr. Hamlin met New on the steps of the Federal Reserve Bank building. D arny.,” said he, “who i didate for Vice President “Clarence,” replied Harry, see why I shouldn't be for You. So with this nucleus of one vote, Mr. Hamlin proceeded to national head- quarters. There he met Frank W. Mondell, an old friend from Wyoming, permaneént chairmon of the conven- tion. He told Mr. Mondell of his boom. 2 “You can have my vote,” said Mr. Mondell ‘Which made two votes—more, per- hape, than some of the real aspirants 'will get. But then the boom faded. It was discovered that Harry New has only half & vote from Indiana. That re- duced the Hamlin strength to 1% per cent, which wasn't strong enough. si- your can- 1 don't They are having a good deal of fun here over that Indiana situation. Most states have only seven delegates at jarge. Indiana has fourteen. Indiana is the greatest political state in the Union. Seven delegates wasn't half onough. Political expediency made it hecessary to name fourteen with half wote each.

MORE REVISION LIKELY Work Will Be Finished in Time for Action Tomorrow. By the Associated Press. ; CLEVELAND, OHID, June 10.—A tentative draft of the 1924 platform of the Republican party has been completed today after a group of members of the resolutions commit- te¢ had labored into the early morn- ing hours, and had obtained the views of President Coolidge by telephone on certain planks. Chairman Charles B. Warren, of the committee, which could not be or- ganized until the opening ion to- day of the convention, explained that this draft would form the basis upon | which the committee would work |after the five hours of hearings during the day. The platform will be ready for action by the convention | Wednesday afternoon. After hours of conference, the plat- form builders made some changes last night in the suggested planks brought here by Secretary Slemp with Presi- dent Coolidge's ‘sanction. The for- eign relations provision was mate- lly revised and it is understood it was upon this subject particu- larly that the Executive was con- sulted by long distance telephone. Work After Midnigh: Having obtained Mr. Coolidge's Views on the changes. Chairman War- ren atd his co-workers resumed their conference and it was after mid- night betore their task was done. Among those who participated in the discussion wers Senators Smoot of Utah and Gooding of Idaho, and Rep- resentatives Vare of Pennsyl and Mills of New York, who had been des- ignated by their state delega members of the resolutions commit- ee. Senator Reed of Pennsylvania was consulted in the course of the eve- ning, as was John Thomas, the newly clected national committeeman from Tdaho. Mr. Thomas and Senator Gooding interested themselves par- {icularly in the question of farm re- e At the conclusion of the hearings today the resolutions committee, com- posed of one member from each of the states and territories, will begin whipping ‘the platform’ into final pe.

Discussing this phase of the plat- form organization, those shaping the Proposed expression the conven- tion said there would be a clear-cut teclaration condemning “bad behav- was former | ior in public office.” Mont Likely Platform. These developments pointed trend of thought which it was con- %nu. d probable by many, party { leaders to lead to presentation of a platform containing the following major pronouncements: Rigid economy in governmental ex- penditure: «“form in taxation and greater re- | duction in tax levies, American adherence to v“ urt as proposed by Pres idge. Honesty in public office and drastic punishment of all found guilty of misconduet. xecution of the provisions of the bonus act and special provision for ed. n of the power of Con- control immigration to the peint of exclusion. Strict _enforcement of all laws without special mention of the pro- i 'y Statutes. ognition of the right of collec- vargaining and of the living to a the world ident Hard- nd indorsed by President Cool- tive | wage. Favor Flexible Tariff. Continued use of the flexible pro- visions of the tariff act to protect agriculture: governmental encour- agement of co-operative marketing and further aid to the farmers along the lines of recently established ag- ricultural credit corporation. With reference to tax reduction, the platform, it was stated authorita- tively, will make no specific reference to the Meilon plan, but will contain a broad declaration for tax revision and refor: The world court plank was de- scribed as a straightout declaration of American adherence to the Couri of International Justice without spe- cific recommendations as to the form of_adherence. The soldiers’ bonus has been treat- ed by the platform builders as an ac- complished fact. and the only refer- ence, if any, will be a declaration for execution of the law placed on_ the statute) books over President Cool- idge's veto. Provision for Sick. There will be a provision, however, as to the treatment of the sick and disabled veterans of the world war. Another of the suggested planks which was rewritten was that dealing with wrongdoing in public office. As now drawn this provision makes no mention of individuals, but declares for punishment where guilt is clearly established. The national defense piank would declare for the milltary training of all _citizens who wish to be trained, and deals specifically with the civi fan military training camps and_the Oflicers’ Reserve Corps. For the Navy it would declare for the building up and maintenance of a sea force to the full strength permitted the United States under the Washington treaty. Vice Presidential Nominee Should Be “Loud Speaker By the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 10.—Some G- O. P. delegates appear to think the vice presidential nominee must be noted as a loud speaker, whatever other qualifications he has. They argue that if President Coolidge is going to campaign from Washington his running mate ought to have the vocal equipment of a radio announcer and be!prepared to carry the Repub- lican platform gospel out into the tall timbers at first hand, That is one of the werious objec- tions made in corridor gossip to Sec- retary Hoover and some ocurs The e ,” Delegates Believe gossipers contend that the Secretary does not even fancy himself as an orator. No Agreement Reached. Of course, they say, the situstion doesn’t call for a man who talks too much and says too little and the re- sult has been an informal canvass of the talking powers of a notable group of party celebrities. It had not re- sulted overnight in any agreement as to WED should win the palm on that coun about an’ orator?

They will present a similar plank to the Democrat tional convention in New York City. In the tentative draft prepared by Canon Chase opposition is declared to any change in the Volstead act. A light wine and beer amendment would, the draft declared. increase the difficulties of law enforcement “The importance of the enforce- ment of the prohibition law necessi- tates that it be placed in a depart- ment independent of all others, tentative draft declared, “under the direction of the President, and that the appointment be made free from party politics and partisan control.” The preamble of the resolution in its present form denounces the cor- ruption, which it asserts is incident to the present methods of prohibition enforcement, asserting that new methods are necessary “to protect the public welfare from those officials whose duties put them in special dan- ger of betraying the common weal.” NEBRASKA FOR DAWES ‘FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS’ State Delegation TUnanimous Choice for General for Vice Presidency.

Gen. Dawes formerly was a resi- dent of Nebraska. “He lived in Lin- coln from 1890 to 1900—during the panic and the drought—and went broke with the rest of us” he said. ‘Nebraska knows him, knows what he can do and is for him first, last and always for Vice President,” Woods said.
