the PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER At
The DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

Among the lOokerson at the Den
yer convention are MIR. and Mrs. Nj
cholas Longworth. MIR. lOngworth Is
a Republican and represents an ONO
district In Congress. Mrs. Longworth
is the daughter Of President Roose'
welt. We do not understand exactlF
why Mr.. and Mrs. Longworth should
find the atmosphere Of Democratic
convention c0nsenial, unless they
want to compare the relative merits
of the Chicago and Denver steam
rollers" 1t may be, too. that Mrs.
Lengworth has a friendly feeling for
the forces which dominate the Den
yer convention. She has possibly
heard that in some quarters her dis
tinguished father has been pronounc-
ed half Democrat, and maybe she
wants to see what an out-and-out Dem
ocrat really is when he meets his rel
In national convention
Moreover Mrs. Longworth is a woman
of shirt and perhaps she would wei
come the opportunity to see a mani
Hesitation of a certain kind Of Demo
cratic harmony which Included a
smuggling match in the preliminaries OF
reconciliation. Her presence at the
Democratic convention suggests inter
esting speculation. SO far as We
know, it Is without precedent In mod
ern American politics.
