Rabbi stephen 3. Wise of New York,
who is friend OF the Justice, has
issued a signed statement setting forth
the real reasons. he says. why Justice
Hughes cannot allow his name to be
considered by the Chicago Convention.

his own position to DO unassailabie," and
continued:
1T appears to ono who Is not I'M

Justice Hughes has succeeded in do

tho whole question In an lmpcrsonal
and detached way. lie seems to have
asked and to his own satisfaction 10
have answered one quest .on-Is Il right
that I should permit my name to be
used7 His answer has been No."
The decision Is not to be recalled
IL extraordinary circumstances arise
or unforeseen CONTINGENCIES come to
pass. But IL Will be reafllrmed az
f,nal and irrevocable even In the event
Of the Chicago Convention now AS
sembled nominating Justice Hughes
for tho Presidency. 1t Is no little thing
to say. but l may say that he would

OF his faction on tho committee. As
outlined. plank by plank. In tho last
two days there will be little difference
between 1t and the platform being pre-
pared by the pro-Taft members OF the
committee. Tho most notable sxcsp-
ton 10 that the nocssvsit platform
will provide for woman suffrage. II
also Will urge the creation OF a cor
pUrauOn commission. This corpora Ito a
commission plank carries out the ideas
OF Col. Roosevelt as set forth by him
In the outlook. and of George W. Per-
kins OF the Harvester and steel Trusts
In the matter OF waterways and in
tcrnal waterways improvements. Col.
Roosevelt goes President Taft one
better by recommending the use OF
the machinery and force of the Pam
ana Canal for tho work. particularly
the work in the Mississippi Valley.
One conspicuous feature OF the
Roosevelt platform IL the absence Of
any laudation of the Republican party.
Nowhere In the present draft OF the
platform 10 the Republican party or
the name Of Col Roosevelt mentioned.
