Christian Missionary Meetings

The mid-week services of the Chris
tian- Missionary Alliance at the VIM
throp Street Baptist church this week
are of unusual promise, in view of the
fact that there will be present to
conduct the services, two young mis-
sionaries who are not only in the be-
ginning of their careers as ambassa-
doris Of Christ, but are Spirit-filled,
youthful, enthusiastic and eager %
tell the story of the Cross at home
and abroad.
Miss Maude Bernhard of Boston,
who has had much experience among
the young people of the hub" and
elsewhere, and Miss Myra Wing of Old

Training Institute of New York, the
latter a graduate and prospective
missionary to India in the near flu
ture, will conduct the service this aft
ernon at 2.30 o'clock and the evening
service will be at 7.30.
1t is hoped that large number will
be present to welcome these deac
young people, to encourage them as
we'll as to receive the inspiration that
such services never fail to impart.
Everyone will be most cordially re

tation.

CUMMINGS KEYNOTE

San Francisco, June 2S-The League
of Nations covenant was championed
as the Monroe Doctrine of the
world" by Homer Cummings, temper
airy chairman of the Democratic ma
tional convention, in his keynote ad-
dress here today.
OF the peace treaty's defeat in the
senate, he said: No blacker crime
against civilization has ever soiled
the pages of our history"
He characterized the Republican
platform. as "reactionary and pro-
vincial." Filled with prenfeditated
ISLANDERS and vague promises, it Will
be searched in vain for one construe-
tive suggestion for the reformation OF
the conditions which it criticizes and
deplores," he continued.
1.-THE oppressed peoples .of the
earth will look to it in vain. 1t con-
tains no message of hope for Ireland;
no word Of mercy for Armenia; and it
conceals g. sword for Mexico. 1t is
the work of men concerned more with
material things than with human
rights. 1t contains no thought, no
purpose which can give impulse or
thrill to those who love liberty and
hope to make the world a safer and
happier place for the average man.
He declared that the peace time
record of the democratic party from
March, 1913. to the outbreak of the
world war has to it's credit more eff
fective, constructive and remedial
legislation than the Republican party
had placed upon the statute books in
a generation"
Praising the administration course
in the war he said: I'VE fought a
great war, for a great cause and we
had a leadership that carried America
to greater heights of honor and power
before in her entire history"
Let no one misunderstood US.
These great affairs were carried for
ward under the stimulus of American
patriotism, supported by the courage
and spirit of our people. All this is
freely and gladly acknowledged, but
surely the time has come when, be-
cause of the calculated criticism and
premeditated calumnies of the oppo-
sition, we are entitled to call atten-
ton to the fact that all of these
things were accomplished under the
leadership Of great Democrat and of
great Democratic administration.
II the Republican leaders are not able
to rejoice with us in this American
triumph, they should have the grace
to remain silent. for it does not lie in
the mouths Of those who conducted
the Spanish-American war to indulge
in the luxury of criticism
Referring to congressional investiga-

utterances Of Sen. Lodge and the
late President Roosevelt that some
concert Of powers must be formed.
He said the last Of the fourteen
points enunciated by Pres. Wilson
had contained practically the Ian
guase Of article ten Of the covenant
and that no word had been raised
then against it.

SPELLACY HEADS RULES
COMMITTEE AT FRISCO

Auditorium, San Francisco, June %.
The committee on rules of the con-
vention elected Thomas ]. spellacy Of
Connecticut chairman and Immediately
took up the question as to whether the
convention should proceed to the
nomination of a ticket before adopting
party platform. 1t was suggested
that this be done in order to expedite
the proceedings of the convention, as
it was generally unders TODD that the
drafting of the platform would take
some time.
The credentials committee decided
to hear and review the claim of Sen.
Reed of Missouri to a seat as a dele
gate.
Sem Glass was not prepared to
name the subcommittee t" work on
the platform at once and plans went
forward for the full committee to
hear Some of those who had suggested
planks to offer.

tions committee, which will draft

t,onai convention. and the selection
OF Sen. Joseph Robinson for per-

ANY planks which William J.

brought into the convention with the
endorsement of only a minority re-

Senator Robinson Is accounted a

These two developments demon
strating the control Of the admins

LEADERS AT SEA
OVER CHOICE OF
STANDARD BEARER

San Francisco, June 2s-There is
more McAdoo talk in the air tonight,
but there is apparently no change in
the real situation among the various
candidates.
Tonight shows the first signs Of a
movement among the leaders and
managers to sound sentiment among
the uninstructed delegates and COM
pute the possibilities Of nominating
somebody.
Principally, the night is given over
to meetings of the four big commit.
tees in the great building, which also
houses the convention auditorium
The leaders and candidates, mana
gers are all under one roof and al
though they are engaged in commit
tee business, they are not losing the
opportunity to confer and possibly get
together on the makings Of a slate
OF their own or POSSIBLY decide to ac-
cept one which the drift among the
delegates may be forcing on them.
McAdoo boomers hoped all day that
their candidate would make some
statement simplifying the declaration
of National Committeeman Love Of
Texas that the nomination would not
be rejected. Some were disappointed
and others thought Mr.. McAdoo. in
view of repeated previous declara-
lions of declination was pursuing a
wise course in remaining silent.
Palmer people continued their ef-
forts to make strong showing on the
opening ballots and the Cox people
We're doing the same. About the only
point the three forces would agree
upon was that there would be no
nomination on the first ballot. and
most of them seemed to agree that
there would be no nomination in les
than three to five ballots.
The McAdoo people TODAY agreed
upon Samuel B. Amidon Of Wichita.
Kansas, as their floor leader. and at
the same time began picking a repre-
sentative on each Of the state delega-
tons.
Ills selection was made at a confer
ence of McAdoo supporters, who de-
scrloed themselves as bitter enders "
cone johnson Of Texas, former solici-
tor OF the state department.; Rep
Whaley of South Carolina and Mrs.
Peter Olesen of Minnesota were
among the assistants selected for
Amidon.
Most OF the McAdoo boomers are
saying that they do not expect any
support from the Tammany delega
,fon OF New York until it becomes
apparent that the former secretary

Sandy Hook, N. J., June 2S-The
Shamrock w, which will meet the
Resolute for the Americas Cup of
Sandy Hook next month, was given q
short spin today with her full crew Of
40 aboard.
It was decided not to match her
against the 23-meter Shamrock, but
to take some Of the crew from the
trial horse and place them aboard the
challenger, in order to determine how
the great, green sloop. would handle
with her full complement. Rain,
however, which set in soon tfter the
craft began her work out brought the
trip to an abrupt end.
Yachting experts who watched the
Upton sloop today announced that
her sails were setting better. They
declared, however. that they were not
yet entirely satisfied with them.
It was made known tonight that
both challenger and defender will be
sent to South Brooklyn shipyards
July for measurement. After that
time they will be under direct SUPER
vision Of the race committee.
