Platform Drafted
For Liberals Is Cut
To Only $50 Words
Nomination of Presiden-

OH Manner i'm Which
Document Is Received

ST. LOC1s, Dec. 11.--A platform Of
150 words was prepared to-day for the
National Conference of Liberals by
members of the platform committee in
place of much longer document which
previously had been offered.
The committee on political procedure
presented a report providing for q ma
t;onal convention not later than July l.,
1920. Delegates in the mean time are
expected to distribute the platform in
their re pective sections Of the country,
and the way in which it is received will
indicate whether the national conven-
tion shall form a new national politi-
cal party and name candidates for
President and Vice President in the
election next November.
In reducing the platform to 150
words the committee not only con-
densed the previous draft but omitted
all specific reference to the subjects
Of agriculture, foreign relations, edu-
cation and military training which
were incorporated in the longer docu-
ment
The proposed platform follows:
"t. Public ownership OF transporta-
toirs, grain elevators, terminal ware
houses. pipe lines and tanks. Public
ownership of other public utilities are
of the principal natural resources. such
az coal, oil, natural gas, metal deposits,
water power and large commercial
timber tracts.
"2 No land (including natural re-
sources) and no patent to be held out
of use for speculation or to aid mo-

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Women
are to have voice in the making Of
the platform offered the voters of this
country next year by the Republican
party, according to information given
out to-day at the headquarters Of the
women's division. Incident to the
conference of the national executive
committee, it was decided that women
would be among the forty outsiders to
be invited to assist the platform COM
mittee of the national executive body.
1t is proposed to ask these women
representatives. of various groups to
inform the platform committee what
the women in their particular group
want from the government The women
chosen to thus act will be of the Re-
publican political faith, and they will
be on the same footing as the men
among the forty outsiders.
These outsiders will not have an
actual vote on the drafting of the plat
orm which will be presented to the
Republican convention next June, but
they will occupy much the same posi-
ton as that of the technical advisers
of the recent lnternatio Labor Con-
ference. For instance, woman con-
versant with the interests of the work
ing women Of The country will be asked
10 present her views OF what should
be embodied in the platform.
A woman familiar with the legisla-
tion desired by the church elements
will be asked to contribute what in her
opinion should be considered by this
platform committee.
A woman in close touch with the
problems OF child labor and the ex-
ploitation of children will be invited
TO give hey idea of what the next ad-
ministraton could achieve in the way
of betterment. This topic was one Of
those stressed by Mrs. Medill McCor-
mick, the retiring chairman of the
womens committee. in her address to
tho national executive committee.
