6. 0.P.P PLANKS
LIKE MOOSE
Agree on Prepared
ness and Mexi-
can Policy.
From stan Correspondent o, IN, Tribune

fFron stan Correspondent n The Tribune
Chicago. June S.-Despite severai
vague and other soft spoken pianKs'
the platform adopted almost unanim-
ously by the Republican National Con-
vention to-day is regarded generally
bv the delegates with approval. 1t is
ono on which all members Of the party
can stand.
There is a striking similarity be-
tween the Republican and Progressive
platforms on almost all the main
issues. While the language differs, the
sentiment expressed is the same.
On woman suffrage, however, the Re
publcans do not go as far as the
Progressives The former favor the
extension of suffrage to women, but
declare it is a question for each state
to settle for itself The Moose plat
form favors equal suffrage by both
state and Federal action.
The Republican suffrage plank was
was a compromise, but so far as actual
results go the final victory was rather
barren. While it puts the party on
record as recognizing that suffrage is
a question for the states themselves to
decide, it places an obstacle in the way
of future consideration of the Susan
B. Anthony amendment to the Federal
Constitution. The National Associa-
tion is pleased with the result, though
the Congressional Union is not.
Vague on Preparedness.
The plank on preparedness is one of
the rather vague sections of the Re-
publican document 1t calls for an eff
cient army and an ample reserve of
trained men, but contains no allusion
TO universal service For the navy it
calls for fleets sufficient TO protect both
coasts.
Both Of these promises. the drafters
point out, if carried out by a Presi-
dent who believes heartily in pre-
paredness, are sufficient. Taking this
view, the members of the committee
who would rather nave had something
more specific, compromised on the
terms finally adopted by the conven-
tion.
More important, perhaps, is the
declaration in favor of coherent and
continuous policy OF national defence,
which even in these perilous days the
Democratic party has utterly failed
10 develop, but which we promise TO
give to the country"
Tne plank on foreign relations, which
might be considered in direct connec,
ton with the Americanism issue, will
not. its trainers believe, frighten away
