Argument Over Plank plank urging American ad- hereace to the world court was the most ¢ uted plank in the platform submitted to the convention. Gover- nor Smith had recommended the in- clusion of h a plan but consid. erable opposition developed on the t of many New York and Brook- Iyn leaders Text of Plank The plank upon which agreement finally was reached follows: “'As the senate of the United States has by its action voted that the n. tion adliere to the world court with provisions intended to safeguard our national sovereignty, we trust that, if these reservations are accepted, | our participation will promote the | elimination of future wars and-the solution of all international putes.” 5,000 Word Platform e Besse-Leland Co. of § last game which it is nk Laplante was trying to work wi ed Saturday after noon, be wn today, b police h unable ,to guilt for the other two tions on Laplante. opera- h were t en men p nted to the cash receipt. ap- proved in the sigr e of the ad- |vertising man, the signature haying ibeen forged to resemble very closely |the genu One receipt was made News, and the other be fore an advertisement in a enir program of a Tifers mers' convention, the city not ntioned, When Laplants called Saturday afternoon with a receipt for $150 on another blank, ostensibly |by the advertising man, Miss |Kathryn Kelly said she wonld _be e Hosument o |OPliged to consult the former.

State Rights Plank It contains a plank pledging the party to the enactment of legislation which will “guarantee perpetual ownership and control by the people of the state-owned water power re- sources of this state” and it advo- cates the establishment of a state water power authority, similar to the New York port authority as recommended by the executive for the development of the hydro-elec- tric power of the state. Pledges To Labor Like the platforms of the past several years, that which was pre- sented today renews the party pledges for a 48 hour week for women and minors in industrial es- tablishments; child welfare legisla- tion, further liberalizatlon of the workmen'’s compensation law to re- duce delays occasioned by compen- sation appeals, and to increase th maximum weekly compensation pay ments to injured workers; to re- store to communities the power of | their own contracts with public utilities corporations and to permit municipalities to own and operate bus lines; for restoration of the di- rect primary and for removal of all “unjust discriminations against wo- men through separate amendments which will retain existing legal pro- tection for them in their homes and in industry. Urges Modification Prohibition is treated at length, the platform urging the electorate to vote “yes” on the pending refer- endum to modify the Volstead act by permitting the several states to make thelr own definition of what constitutes intoxicating liquor.
