PERKINS MEETS
 COL LONEL; SEEKS
 TO CURB MOOSE

New York, June 14-CoL Roose- welt motored into the city from Oys- ter Bay late yesterday afternoon, os- tensibly with the sole purpose of meeting his son Kermit and the lat ter's wife, who were passengers on the army transport Fitzpatrick from Panama.
 But the Fitzpatrick did not reach port until 10 o'clock last night, too late for the Roosevelt party to land. That gave the waiting Colonel ample time for an important conference with George w. Peckins, just back from Chicago. This conference, not a long one, took place at the home of the ColoneTs daughter, Mrs. Richard Derby, in East Seventy-ninth street.
 Irnme ediate1y aftorward. MT. Per kins issued the following statement land wired it's substance to every mem 'ber of the Progressive National Com mittee and every Progressive state chairman in the country:
 ''AlI mem bers of the Progressive party and it's organizations should remember that at the close of the Progressive convention in Chicago a. meeting of the National Committee was called to be held in Chicago. June 26. one week from next Monday.
 '"This will be after the Democratic convention in St. Louis and the re-
  Sufficient time will have elapsed af- ter the Progressive, Republican and Dem ocratic conventions to allow our National Committeeme in each Of the states to learn in @ general way the public sentiment in each state and to bring this information to the meeting of the National Commit tee.
 ''The action that will then be taken by our National Committee on June 26 should be awaited by Progressiveo as individuals and by the various local and State organizations, and no action should be taken by individual Progressives or by tI1e various orgserf- zations until the action of the Ma tionaI Committee mas been made pub lfc."' with Mr. Perkins he motored f" quiet uptown hotei where Hiram Johnson and Chester II. ROw@ll of California were aw;4it'rg to see hum.

[ Against this actual condition our opponents raise an argument of Ifs.' With greater truth ye can also enter the realm of conjecture and declare that if another candidate had been elected four years ago the United States would be at war today. A ton of ifs do not weigh as much as sin gle fact. Our opponents forget that IT the flight of the seagulls off the coast of the West Indies had not directed his course Columbus would not have dis covered America when he did. But the seagulls were there-'ifs' cannot banish them-and Columbus found our land.' Chairman Glynn concluded with praise for President Wilson, who, he said, has measured up to the best tra- ditions of great office.
 The Man Who Has Made Democracy Proud.
 E'He has been wise with a wisdom that is steeped in the traditions of his country, with wisdom that has been disciplined by training and broadened by instruction.
 ''He has been firm with the frmness l that proceeds from deep conviction, with the f1rmness that is grounded in duty well defined.
 ''He has been patient with the pa- 1 tience which believes and trusts that | truth crushed to earth will rise again, with the patience that can endure and wait, watch and pray, for the certain vindication of justice, humanity and right.
 t'He has been patriotic with a pa- l triotism that has never wavered, a pa l triotism that is as pure and strong as l the faith that moved the fathers when they made our country free. I
 "And when the history of these days comes to be written and the children of tomorrow read their nations story, when time shall have dispelled all mis- conception and the years shall have rendered their impartial verdict one name will shine in golden splendor upon the page that is blackened with the tale of Europe's war, one name will represent the triumph of Ameri- can principles over the hosts of dark ness and of death.
 That name will be the name of the great president who has made Democ- racy proud that he is Democrat and 1 made Americans proud that he is an | American.
 4'It will be the name of the states
 man who has kept his country true to it's faith in a time that tried mems souls; the name of the student and the scholar who has championed the Ecause of American freedom wherever he found it oppressed; the name of the patriot who has implanted his coun- btry's flag on the highest peak to which humanity has yet aspired; the name that carried the torch of progress to
 victory once and will carry it to vic- tory again-the name of Woodrow Will son, president and president to be.''

 cratic national convention here today. Declaring that tAmericanism and peace, preparedness and prosperity, are the issues upon which the Democratic party stands, and the heart of Democ xacy swells with pride that is more than a pride of party as it hafls the man. who has asserted this American ism, assured this peace, advocated this preparedness and produced this pros perity,' he predicted the reelection of President Wilson
 Taking up our foreign relations that have been called into emphatic promi- hence by the world wide war, the speaker declared that .swe have enter ed this hall as Democrats; we shall de hberate as Americans" "* The policy of neutrality, he argued, is as truly American as the American flag For 200 years neutrality was theory; Americ& made it fact 'sIt took Washington and his successors eighty years of endless negotiation to win rec 0yp1s1on Of American neutrality And this eighty years or struggle wove the doctrine Of neutrality so closely into the warp and wool of our national life that to tear 1t out now would -unravel the very threads of our existence" By the records of history MT. Glynn main tafned that if Washington and Lincoln were right President Wilson is right The neutrality that President Wilson stands for today was advocated by Washington, by Hamilton. by Jener- son and by Ltnccfn.
 Followed Examples os Greatest Presi-
 dents.
 By citing precede1ts Mir G4ynn justi- fled and defecded the course of the president in the Lusitania and similar incidents. '1n the face Of this rec ord" ," he S<szed, "do Republicans realize that wE~n they arrGiga the policy of the prevalent of the United States to- day they arraign the policy of Harri- son, of Blaine, of Lincoln and of Grant? For the pleasure of criticising a Democratic president, are they will ing to read out of the Republican party Ehe greatest men the Republican party ever had? Are they willing to say that the Republican party of today con demns what Hamilton did in revolu- ionary days, what Lincoln did in civil war days, and what Grant and Blaine and Harr1son did but yesterday?
 "In his policy of peaceful negot1a- dons today the president of the United States follows the example set him by the greatest presidents which the Democral-c party and the greatest presidents the Republican party ever gave this nation.'
 MT. Glynn impressed on his hearers that it was the business of this con- vention, representing every section of the United States, speaking for every racial strain in America, to send forth q message fo all the world that will leave no room for doubt.

 At the conclusion of his own prayer. pr. Lee turned to the Lords Prayer and the convention joined him in the sentences.
 Immediately after the prayer. Chairman McCombs delivered his ad- dress, which was repeatedly punctu- ated by outbursts of cheering At ftg conclusion there was a big demonstra.- ton.
 Former Governor Martin H. GIynn of New York, was then presented as temporary chairman.
 The New York delegation led the cheering that lasted several minutes as MT. Glynn took his place on the platform. MT. McCombs and Mir. Glynn shook hands and the cheering burst forth anew.
 MT. Glynn's speech was a nasterful review of the Democratic administra- ton and al stirring defense of it's ac- tions and policies.
 Repeatedly, he was forced to utterances.
 Following the speech by MT. Glyun, it was expected that the con vention would take an early ad- journment until tomorrow morning
 
 Democratic National Convention to- day appeared so close that "GeneraPf Upregraff's we'll laid plans to keep silent watch, in a waII<less, talkless | E"Golden Lane" demonstration appear ed likely to be shattered. Partici- pants had promised their "GeneraI' faithfully that during two hours of the display they would not utter a sound and then, in the closing hours of preparation a tentative draft Of a l suffrage platform plank rendered | item by Democratic leaders put them in a shouting mood. | The plank contains everything which the suffragists have been light ing for. It would put the party on record as favoring passage of a con stitutional amendment to enfranchiss women. The plank as drafted refers to the large number of voting women in ttA 1z enfrdn chised states, one of the principal arguments the women have been using, regarding their l strength.
 Members of the National American Woman Suffrage Association were ex- pected to put their unqualified ap- IpEoval on the plank today and repre- sentatives of the Woman's Party all ready have indorsed it. If the plank is adopted leaders of the Woman's Party will turn attention to Congress and try to force the Susan B. Anthony amendment through both houses be- fore adjournment of the present ses- sion.
 The plank was sent to the sufra- gists after it had been scrutinized carefully by Secretary Daniels and other prominent Democrats.
 The suffragists plan to continue to- Iday their street speaking and demon lstrations and to appear b0fore the resolutions committee Thursday as # no plank had been submitted to them. lThey will vigorously oppose substitu- ton of suffrage plank in less definite terms.
 Anti-suffragists were prepared to re- double their efforts to defeat adoption of the plank. Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge land Mrs. S. J. George will speak be- fore the resolutions committee. The Golden Lane'' demonstration today is expected to stand in the front frank of suffrage displays held in the Limited States.

 ''The president of the United States stands today where stood the men who made America and who saved America. He stands where John Ad- ans stood when he told King George that America was the land he loved and that peace was her grandeur and her welfare. He stands where General Grant stood when he said there never was war that could not have been settled better some other way, and he has shown his willingness to try the ways of peace before he seeks the paths of war. He stands where George Washington stood when he prayed that this country would never unsheath the sword except in self defense so long as justice and our essential rights could be preserved without it.
