to give your young man, Mr.-Mr.-I

Amelia blushed and looked down at

Women will from now on have an
equal voice with men in planning and
managing Republican campaigns. This
is assured through the adoption by
the convention of the report Of the
committee on rules, the chief recon-
mendation of which was that the
executive committee shall have mem
bership Of fifteen instead of ten as
heretofore. The makeup Of the conn.,
mittee will be seven men, seven wom-
en- and the chairman. In addition the
committee will have a woman vice
chairman, ranking next in dignity to

Cured in the committee which framed
the platform and did not reach the
public nor the great body of delegates
excepting through the press. The
League of Nations plank was the great
exciting cause and the difficulty was
to so frame it as to save the faces Of
the Republican senators who had taken
such varying attitudes on the question
ever since President Wilson brought
the peace treaty and the league cove

was accomplished in a very adroit
compromise which abuses the admin

To many this must look like an In
dOrsement Of the principle Of League
Of Nations although nothing Is said
about mandates nor the duty Of Amer
tca to take part in foreign embrofI-
ments. On the other hand the plank
specifically states that the United
States shall have the right to deter
mine in advance what is just and fair
without becoming involved as partici-
pant or peacemaker in foreign quar-
rels. Much Of this was gone over In
the senate debates and it always
caused division in the Republican ma
jority, but at the convention it seemed
to satisfy all parties. Johnson claims
victory, Lodge claims a victory, 9TH
ers who we're opposed to both Of them
claim victories and everybody is
happy with the opponents hugging

they were enemies, with certain cir

TIRE KEEPS ROLLING
AFTER WHEEL GOES

The unbelievable amount Of pun
fshnent sustained by automobile
tires in speed races when wheels
are revolving at the rate of twenty
five times second when the car
is making 100 miles an hour, is not
appreciated by the average racing
fan.
A remarkable incident. In the re-
cent Los Angeles race brings this
point out in a striking manner. Art
Klein was leading the field on the
1880 mile, cleaving the air at 1o4
miles an hour. Suddenly his right
rear wheel collapsed. the steel
spokes being sheared OF close to the
rim. Rearing wildly, the car
scrambled about on the remains on
the wheel. but the fully inflated
Goodyear cord tire. perfectly mount
ed, swept on down the track at tsr-
rife speed in the direction the car
had been taking. When Il fiAaliy
came to q stop. it was.found unin-
jured.
This is the first time that such a
freak performance, demonstrating
the ruggedness of tires, has ever
been witnessed during race.
