 PARTY LAUNCHED ON STORMY SEA
Radicals Open Convention At
 Chicago With Many D Warning Elements
LA TOILETTE UNOPPOSED
Presidential Candidate Not In Doubt But Opposing
 Planks Numerous

CHICAGO, July To- - The Com mittee of 48, assisted by fraternal delegates representing half a dozen lrperal and radical organizations launched the third party movement here today in it's first national con vention.
 Sen. Robert La Toilette, of Wis consin, who won the preference in a mail referendum to determine the most popular candidate for Presi- dent, appeared to have no oppos- tfon, nearly all of the five or six hundred delegates wearing La Foll- cite badges, but bitter struggle over the platform seemed a certainty.
 PIanks At Variance
 A conference preceding the con vention, which operated to delay it's opening several hours, between rep resentatives of the Committee of AS, Labor Party, Non-Partisan League. Single Tax Party, Triple Alliance of the Northwest, and several other organizations developed that each group had one or more pet blanks and that several were direct oppo- sites. The task of harmonizing all elements threatened to prove com plicated
 Single Taxers announced unequiv- ocal stand against socialistic and paternalistic policies and demanded single tax plank. They also are attempting to combine with the Ma tional Labor Party, which opens it's own convention tomorrow.
 At Odds Over Rail Plank
 The Committee of AS is facing an acute difficulty with the Labor Party touching the railroad prob lem. Both stand for government ownership but differ as to the amount of democratic manage ment" which would attach if the railroad systems were taken over by the Government. The Labor Party also demands that the word Labor must be preserved in any name adopted for the new party.
 Today's sessions at the conven- tion were largely devoted to the organization. Allen McGurdy, who was made temporary chairman, de- livered an address condemning both the Republican and Democratic parties and their platforms.

She's Just As Essential As
 Topmast to Win Cup ...-..... Race Says Captain

NEW YORK, July 10.-Ona of the mitigating circumstances in the life of a yacht racer and prodlgiously successful trophy hunter is the fact that not every cup is a cup.
 At least that is the opinion of Mrs. Burton, associate" Skipper of Sir Thomas Lipton's American Cup con tender, Shamrock ", who is here to help her husband Capt. w. M. Burton try for the trophy which has reposed west of the Atlantic since 1855. The first race is set for next Thurs day. Her paradoxical sounding opin- ion was uttered very seriously.
 Happily some of them are salvers, tea services and what not" she said Imagine the housewifely task of polishing something like thous- and cups of embossed silver"
 Never Misse/ Race
 Having the cups is very fine, Mrs. Burton says, but the real joy of the thing is the race. Since her mar riage, Mrs. Burton has not missed a race W1lll 1tl Nip hOCioi ''' he would rather sail a race without his topsail than leave his wife be- hind
 Mrs. Burton was reticent as to the precise sea duties of an associ- ate skipper.
 q stand in the ompanionway just beyond the wheel and I always know that everything is coming out right and that we are going to win, she finally explained.
 She said she never suffered from nervousness and never. never dream ed of making suggestions to her bus band or in any way distractlng his attention from the minatiae of his duties as helmsman.
 Always Calm, Confident
 There could be nothing more out of place on a racing yacht. than an excitable, unstrung woman. l am always perfectly calm and confident and enjoy it thoroughly.
 During my first experiences F yacht sailing I used to get bit rerturbed and wrought up and l sup rose there will never again be any thing so thrilling as the first one ol all. when we raced an oldfashioned seven-ton affair, but that was long ago"
 Mrs. Burton has full confidence in the speed of the latest Shamrock which is unlike any yacht that has ever sailed for the American trophy
 ''It is not in the least like any other yacht that was ever made, she admitted. but my husband and believe it is inyincible and we count on winning that coveted mug this time"

ST LOUIS, July 10.-Sen. William s. Kenyon, chairman of the Senate committee Investigating pre-conven tion campaign expenditures of Presi dential candidates, today announced that he will demand repeal of ar appropriation made by Congress foI use by the Department of Justice iI fighting the high cost of living.

 Miss Olivia Bruggmann, formerly employed in an executive capacity in the Missouri bureau. testified sht was dismissed because she was s Republican.
