there was sufficient quiet for the open

dience arose while the Rev. Rabbi
Mayer of Kansas city delivered
prayer breathing the sense Of response
olllty resting UPON the convention.
Immediately following the prayer the
call of states began for the purpose of
making nominations for the vice presi
dency. Great confusion prevailed and
very few of the delegates were aware
OF what was going on until Alabama
and Arkansas had been tassed and
California had been called.
Then the doughty form and fiOrid
face of Senator White emerged from
the CalifOrnians and in steutorian
tones he demanded to know what was
going on and that the afsles be cleared
OF the dis0rderly intruderS. When the
chairman responded that California
was being called for nominations,
Senator White announced that Cali
fornid yielded to Arkansas.

INCOME TAX PLANK

Kansas City, July 6.-The income tax
was left out Of the platform as adopted
by the convention. and the attention
of the Democratic leaders was called
to it early in the day. Senator Jones,
chairman of the committee on resolu-
lions, intended TO make a motion to
have the income tax provision inserted.
He did not make the motion, however,
and it is not included in the platform.
1t was stated tonight that the reaffirm-
alton Of the principles of the Chicago
platform included the income tax l.ro-

after 3 O'Clock this afternoon the ma

party was declared by Chairman
Richardson to be adjourned without

of the Utah people who have been

who are going home by different routes
said goodbye to one another and ex-
changed congratulations on what 70

The one session of the convention to-
daY was full of incident. Ever since
early morning it has looked like a
sure thing for Stevenson for vice
president. but a short while after the
convention opened. a stampede toward
Hill seemed imminent The recon-
structed New Yorker himself stemmed
the tide by declaring in an impassiOn-

nomination. and tha. his friends were
placing him in very embarrassing
position by Keeping MS hdIHe De1OIe

reached. IL was seen that the Illinois
man was sure to win. He had within
a very few votes Of the required two
thirds and with other states that were
sure for him, he would pass the neces-
sary NUM- Der.

tie caucus. Judge Weber and Mr..
