NO MONEY FOR RECEPTGON.-The
women OF the California delegation have
abandoned their project OF reception.
They are not going TO try 10 entertain the
other women visitors In Baltimore. The
plan was for very swagger social affair,
one divorced from commerclalism, as
Mrs. J. b. Sanford expressed II when the
project was preached on the train.
But commercialism did the idea to death
just the same. The good women were
forced TO abandon their plans because there
was no money. Bert Schlesinger. chairman
OF the finance committee. says there is a
slight balance from the Clark campaign in
California, but apparently he and his COM
mttee are unwilling to spend any of it for
mere sociablity To do the women full
credit. they have accepted the situation
gracefully.
So the Californians will contine them
selves TO distributing California products.
They are TO keep open house and receive
many callers one caller alone proved un-
welcome. He was a Baltimorean of taking
ways who walked out OF the reception room
with a case Of wine. Fortunately he was
stopped before he made his getaway from
the hotel.
