new PARTY HAS
HARDSTRUCCLE
Breaks Between Labor Group
and Forty-Eighters Threaten
at Frequent Intervals.
PLATFORM NEARLY READY
Includes League of Nations,
Recognition of Ireland and
Labor Bill of Rights.

Chicago, July 13-Leaders of the
new party born today were striving
desperately tonight to solidy the
strength Of the minor groups from
which it came, into unified political
party. The early moments of party's
life were fraught with menacing Sit
uations. Several times during the af-
ternoon a break threatened and the
joint chairman of labor party and
committee of forty eight battled for
hours to keep the groups submerged.
While the convention argued over
the recognition extended it's various
elements under the amaIgamation, the
platform committee completed a draft
Of the nine planks including recogni-
ton of Ireland and Soviet Russia and
League of Nations and recommen-
dations that "all Kings and all wars
be abolished
The platform committee was unable
to make report tonight however and
the new party adjourned until tomor-
row when the platform and selection
of candidates will be the. order of
business.
The remaining planks are devoted to
reduction of the cost of living, increas-
ed production, promotion of agricul-
tural prosperity, a bill or rights for
labor and hundred per cent Ameri-
canism.

CALLS VETERANS
TO new C0L0RS
Senator Underwood Tells Heroes
of Rainbow Division They
Must Defend Republic.

birmingham, Ala, July i3.-Declaring
that the government has become the
football of the partisan and the desire
OF the plunderer,' Senator Underwood
IN an address today at the reunion of
Rainbow division veterans, pleaded with
them to become leaders in the fight
against dangers which he said are
threatening the life Of the republic.
The speaker psid tribute to the tx
ploits Of the Rainbow division in
France and to the memory Of those
who had fallen on the battlefields of
the Argonne and the Marne. He said
in part:
I'VE are standing in the dawn Of a
new era of our republic. The fixed
stars have faded from the sky, we grope
in the uncertain light Of the future.
Established landmarks are lost. new
ways perpleX, new problems 0f gov
ernment and business remain unsOived.
The unrest of the times demands that
we march forward, but the doubt of
uncertainty brings confusion 10 cur
ranks. In the beaten paths the rest
less crowds are halted and the sentry
of discomfort challenges our onward
march.
Men of the Rainbow division, YOU
who served and sacrificed on the field
of battle as volunteers az your 3ountry's
call, are you really mustered out OF your
eountry's service, or have you been fur
loughed to serve and sacrifice again as
citizens of the republic for the honor
of our country, the glory OF our flag,
and the safety of our common
heritage?"
Following Senator Underwood's ad-
dress. a short business session was held
and the meeting adjourned to attend
sports carnival at RickWood park.
About one thousand delegates, rep
re ;enting twenty seven states, are at
tending the reunion, which will end to-
morrow.

ASKS why CITY
REFUSES GIFT
Judge Hoffman Wants to Know
Reason Commissioners Turned
Down Dock Site.
DEED HAD NO STRIN GS
Chamber of Commerce Investi-
eating Committee Report
FavOrs Mclaughlin Plan.

'WIhy do the city commissioners
want to pay $4,000 for a piece OF
property at Baylen street which is
entirely unimproved when Mr. Nc
Laughlin offers them a deed in fee
simple to property on which improve
ments three years ago at 1912 900 have
already been made? Judge NJ. G..
Hoffman asked of the chamber of
commerce at yesterdays meeting of
that body.
Judge Hoffman declared that the
Mclaughlin offer to the city was an
offer of a deed or gift outright, with
out any strings whatever, with no
reservations and with no reversions.
the only provision in the entire pro-
posal being that the gift was made
for the city to establish municipal
docks.
Judge Hoffman declared that the
city commissioners had said, in effect
that the gift could not be accepted.
but had assigned no reason for their
statement, other than that a ietter
from the city attorney said il could
not be accepted.
1--WE have a right to know, Judge
Hoffman declared. IF Andrew Car
negie could give libraries to cities
and counties, making provisions in the
gifts that certain sums must be
raised for upkeep. librarians, etc. why
in the world cannot Elwood McLaugh-
lin give the city of Pensacola a site
for municipal docks?"
Judge Hoffman declared that the
section offered by Mr. Mclaughlin.
1,45O feet long and embracing an area
of six and one half acres completely
filled in with stone, had improvements
that would cost more to replace than
the entire sum the sale of the dock
and beltline bonds would bring in.
IF the city buys or attempts to i'm
prove the site which l have been in
formed they have under consideration
the bond money will be expended and
all they will have to show for it will
be hole in the ground filled with
salt water"
James c. Watson. chairman of the
reported favOrably on the
Mclaughlin proposal and told the
chamber of commerce that the city
had, in effect, said that
there was no use in submitting the
Mclaughlin proposal because it would
not be accepted.

PRAYER CONDEMNS
TWO OLD PARTIES

Chicago, July 13-The Rev. George
C. Richmond of st. Louis opened the
As convention with a prayer that was
received with cheers.
We are not concerned about heaven
and hell' he said, "It is this work
in which we are interested. AS Jesus
failed so do We"
The prayer charged that Republi-
can candidates take orders, not from
Jesus Christ, but from Wall street., -
that the Democratic party has sold
out to these forces which face moral
ruin and spiritual dissolution. In Illi-
MOS he said3 "the governor and his
parasites are cursed by pluocratic sell
tishness" he added; I'VE are corrupt,
mean, low visioned and selfish. For

luton now coming save us from ma

merlsm, Penroseism and all other kinds
OF paganism." He also blessed Eu-
gene Debs, "in his prison CELL" This
reference was interrupted with cheers.

tient is already at the home and others
will be taken as soon as quarters can
be prepared.
Donations for the home may be de-
livered direct to the housekeeper at the

this be done where possible. In cases
where delivery cannot be made, Miss

fox-st., in the quarters formerly occu-
pied by the Patriotic League.
In addition to the items already men
toned, Miss Morier says there is need
of oil lamps and bath tub. She is
particularly anxious to find someone
who has a spare bath tub.
Volunteers to aid in setting the home
in order are also asked to report to
Miss Morier at Red Cross headquarters.
There is need Of several ladies to assist
in arranging for the care of the pa
tients. once the home is in order the
housekeeper will be able to manage

being made by new emissaries to per
suade WI Pei Flu, and Tsoa Kun, the

GOVERNMENT IN
BOLIVIA FALLS
Rebels Capture LaPaz and. Seize
President Guerra After Ma
chine Gun Fighting.

Lima, Peru, July 13.-Latest dis
patches available here from Palaz
Bolivia, concerning the revolution
against the government of President
Guerra, are that Bolivian troops have
recognized the new government except
one cavalry regiment, which is reported
as advancing toward Lapaz. A strict
censorship is maintained.
Only bare details are available. The
revolution apparently was brief. Rap
Il fire guns bombarded the palace and
the government offered virtually no
resistance.
The government headed by Presi-
dent Jose Guerra has been overthrown
and the president and members of his
cabinet have been made, prisoners.
Bautista Savedra has assumed power,
being supported by the army, ana is
said to have appointed Jose Carrasco,
former Bolivian minister to Brazil
chancellor
Newspa pers here in commenting on
the news says the revolution is a
crushing defeat of the pro-ChlIean
policy pursued by the Bolivian gov
ernment and vindicates the community
of interest existing between Peru and
Bolivia
Jose Guerra was elected president
of Bolivia on May Z, 1917. The gov
ernment overthrown was formed on
March Is, 1920. Bautista Savedfa was
formerly minister of public instruc-
ton having been appointed tot hat Of
