SECRET INTRIGUE CHARGED : TO DEFEAT LAF0LLETTE AT
 CONFERENCE OF RADICALS

CHICAGO, July IA (by Associated ss).-Little progress was made by the new third party convention during the first two hours today. An under current of dissatisfaction was evident and it frequently required the pleas of the leaders to prevent open breaks. The platform was not ready at noon, and the convention was occupied by minor details.
 The committee of forty-eight has decided to form a national organiza- tion regardless of action of the con- vention and will meet separately to- night to decide whether the fusion convention action is satisfactory to their followers.
 The convention adjourned until 2 o'clock, when the platform is expected to be ready.
 When the convention reconvened, Lester Barlow, leader of the. World War Veterans, charged that the con- vention was boss ridden by secret in- triguing and cliques and that leaders were concealing La Follette's plat form. Barlow started a demonstration for La Toilette which lasted half an hour. at the conclusion of which Chair man Walker denied BarloW's charges but refused to permit the reading of the La Toilette platform. He said the hasters of our government are leagued with money masters of other nations to prevent self-determination by help less people and that rights and hber- lies are being withheld from Amer icam citizens.
 La Toilette sent word to the conyen- tion that he did not want the nomlna- tion and did not deem himself avail able as a candidate.
 Barrow insisted that the Wisconsin senator be drafted and started pro- 1onged demonstration.
 The preamble and two blanks of the majority report of the platform com mittee were given out. They are ex- fremely radical and say the power of government have been stolen from the

RABBI IS GOOD BOOSTER FOR
 N0RTHLAND

WRANGELL, July 14 (by Associated Press).-'T shall do every thing I can within and without Washington to point the tragedy, of a great empire left largely if not wholly undeveloped, ' said Rabbi Stephen Wise of Seattle, aboard the Jefferson on a visit to Alaska.
 Alaska has by reason of it's unparal- elled resources the making of a rich. and noble state. It is for the business men, people and government to re- member that Alaska is not an island in distant seas inhabited by inferior people, but part of the United States, ready for development into one of the strong and valuable regions of the nation. Alaska should be regarded as one of the potentially enriching fac tors in American life and not as an administrative problem

LOOKS LIKE BREAK

CHICAGO, July IA (by Associated Press) The new third party conVen- fion, after remaining in session throughout last evening waiting for the report of the platform commltte, finally adjourned until 9:3O today, when it was hoped the committee would be ready to report.
 During the afternoon the leaders fought desperates for amalgamatlon or all minor groups into the new party to give solidly united strength. Sev- eral times a break appeared close, but neacamakers called to the platform made appeals that prevented break.
 While the convention waited, the >o,atform committee prepared draft of nine blanks, but according to members o&the committee the pet desires or several groups were ignored.
 Chairman Christensen announced during the session that Senator La Toilette wanted to head the new party if possible, but Christensen gave ere dence to the report that La Toilette would only accept the nomination for president in the event that planks on standardization of industries and tor- eign relations be rewritten to conform 10 his ideas.
