Louis Tonight with Practically
Complete Platform.
FIVE NAMED ASSOCIATE BOSSES

Washington, June l2.-Secretary
of War Baker will be President Will
sons personal representative at the
democratic national convention. He
leaves tonight for St. Louis, carrying
with him practically complete draft
of a platform. 1t had been planned to
have the president represented by the
man chosen to succeed William F.
McCombs as chairman Of the demo-
cratic national committee. This Sc
lection has been delayed, however.
Mr.. Baker has been made fully ac-
quainted with the presidents idea on
every conceivable situation which may
arise. Associated with him in looking
after the presidents interests will be
Senators James, Hughes and Stone,
Representative Doremus and Freder-
ick w. Steckman, publicity manager
Of the democratic national committee.
The president completed the tenta-
tive draft of platform planks in which
he is particularly interested yesterday
following conferences with various
democratic leaders. Cabinet members
already have sent to St. Louis drafts
of planks relating to matters involv-
ing their respective departments.
Emphasis was laid today on the
fact that President Wilson made no
effort to dictate the exact phraseol-
ogy of the platform 70 be considered
by the platform committee headed by
Senator Stone.

MASTER BAKERS
BEGIN TO ARRIVE
Over One Hundred Delegates Are Al.
ready Here for Convention,
Which Opens Tuesday.
BREAD LAWS ARE A MISTAKE

ut is mistake to regulate by law
or ordinance the weight OF a loaf Of
bread the baker must sell for 5 cents,
says Henry Zimmerman OF Hannibal
Mo-, treasurer OF the Trans Missis.
sippi Master Bakers association
which association is to open its con.
vention formally at the Auditorium
this morning at 10 o'clock.
ut is a mistake to regulate that, be.
cause the cost of material that enters
into the maxim; OF bread fluctuates
so much.
mo, we have no regulation as to
size and weight of loaves in st. Louis
or in the state of Missouri. II baker
wants to put thirteen ounces or more
or less into his loaf, that is his own
business. We sell mostly loaves OF
thirteen to thirteen and one-half ounc.
es down there.
Not Merely the Flour.
Flour? No, it is not the cost oi
flour that has made necessary the
smaller loaf of bread. At least it is
by no means the cost of flour alone
1t is the higher cost of everything
that goes into the making Of bread
1t is the shortening and everything
else, even down to the little salt that
goes into it, that has greatly increased
in cost.
What is the natural thing to dol
Make the leaf smaller, that is the
only thing, of course, and that is
what has been done.
"The day of the large loaf OF bread
is past. ! see no hope of its return
ing.
"You cannot raise the price Of
bread. People are in the habit oi
paying 5 cents a loaf for their bread
If one baker should charge E cents
and keep the loaves at the old size

Baldrige Motors With Wanamaker
by Mistake; They Meet Later on Stage

Howard H. Baldrige, one of the Ne
braska delegates to the republican
convention at Chicago, was thrown
into the company of John Wanamaker
in the most unusual manner.
One of the announcements from
the convention platform was that
1000 automobiles were at the serv-
ice Of delegates to take them to the
hotels. Outside the convention hall
delegates were jumping into machines
furnished by the reception commit
tee Of the city of Chicago. One drove
in front of Mr.. Baldrige and the
chauffeur op .ned the door. Mr.. Bal
drige jumped into the car, which he
supposed was enc Of the thousand.
Presently an elderly gentleman got
in, the door was closed and the car
started away.
Discovers His Mistake.
1t was not long before the Oma-
han overheard conversation as to the
direction OF the car, which explained
that he had entered the private car OF
John Wanamaker by mistake. Before
he had time to make an explanation
Mr.. Wanamaker said his chauffeur
would drive Mr.. Baldrige anywhere
he wished to go, the Philadelphia
merchant prince learning that his self
invited guest was a delegate and from
Omaha.
Mr.. Baldrige thanked Mr.. Wana-
maker and excused himself for max
ing the mistake. Mr.. Wanamaker
was pleased to entertain a man from
Omaha.
The sequel to the story is that just
twenty-nine years ago Mr.. Baldrige

was a reporter on the Philadelphia
Times. The city editor assigned him
to interview Mr.. Wanamaker on the
subject of his trade with the Antilles
and South America. Reporter Bal.

Mr.. Wanamaker, during the drive

In the convention hall, after the
automobile incident, Mr.. Wanamakei
was called to the platform to nomi'

Difference OF Opinion.

Many OF the bakers are enthusiastic
over the new association OF bakers oi
four states-Iowa, Kansas, Missouri
and Nebraska. Others feel that per-
haps after all it is better to have only
the state associations. 1t is said that
the matter of whether the bakers shall
keep up this Trans-Mississippi asso-
citation or shall again throw their en-.
ergies entirely into their respective
state organizations is to be discussed
at the sessions in Omaha. The early
attendance, however, and the ready
sale for booth space for the exhibit
already gives signs of great success
for this convention and it is thought
there will be no trouble in keeping
up the interstate organization.
