of Ohio, next Edward Moore, Demo-
cratic National Committeeman from
Ohio, who is managing Governor Cox's
campaign for the nomination, is said
to be at French Lick Springs, where
Governor Smith, Charles F. Murphy,
Tom Taggart and other Democratic
leaders are now sojourning. for the
purpose of discussing ways and means
of sidetracking the McAdoo candidacy.
The Tammany special will leave here
next Wednesday, carrying most of the
local delegates, and is scheduled to
leave San Francisco for the return trip
on June 30. That would give the Tam
many men only three days at the con-
vention. When told this might mean
that they would depart before nomi
nation for President was made they in
sisted that they would start back en-
the Both, but figured that the conven-
ton would nominate on the third day.
They pointed out that under the unit
rule-unless it is abrogated by the con-
ventlon-a few delegates left behind.

tended it would interfere with affairs
of q friendly nation.
The proposed suffrage plank calling
upon state Governors whose legisla-
lures have not ratified the amendment,
to call special sessions, was reported
to have been fought principally by
Connecticut members. They pointed
out that Governor Holcomb of Con-
necticut had refused to call the Legis-
lature on the ground that such call
would be illegal and the proposed
plank, they declared, would be an af-
front TO the Governor. In view of the
threatened fight. the substitute suf-
frage plank was inserted.
Prohibition Plank Lost
The Republican platform plank, de-
signed to deal with prohibition, glot lost
IN the shuttle to-day, furnished a new
thrill for vets and drys and raised
The plank does not mention prohibi-
ton, but is a "law and order" decla-
ration for impartial enforcement of all
laws.
In mix-up from confusion of plat
form work the plank was left from the
great pile taken to the Coliseum and
read by Chairman Watson of the reso-
lutions committee. 1t was not read to
the convention and was not in the plat
form as officially adopted, but Chairman
Watson, Senator Smoot and others in
charge of the document declared it
was adopted by the resolutions COM
mittee and is part of the platform.
Dry leaders were assured, before the
on oy,oi lnI o% kro II.
for the Coliseum, that the claw and
order plank was in the platform under
Senator Watson's arm No report Of its
absence was had tonight until Senator
Watson's attention was called to the
omission. Prohibition leaders also
were under the impression that the
platform listed the Volstead enforce
ment act among Republican Congress
sional achievements, but as read it con-
tanned no such Endorsement.
Few Votes on Enforcement Plank
The Claw and order" plank, members
of the committee explained, was de-
signed to fill the gap caused by the over
whelming rejection by the Resolutions
Committee of the proposal of William
Allen White, Of Kansas, for a plank
specifically pledging enforcement of
the Volstead law. Mr.. Whites plank
got only SIX or eight votes. Some pro-
hibition workers were disposed to
make fight FOR the White plank in
the convention, but it got nowhere,
the move being opposed by Wayne B.
Wheeler, general counsel for the Anti
Saloon League of America.
When informed that the platform
pointed with pride" to the Volstead
law and also contained the general law
and enforcement plank, Mr.. Wheeler
said it would prove satisfactory, al
though not entirely meeting dry
wishes. He also expressed satisfaction
over keeping any wet or moist declara-
tion from the platform.
AS originally drafted for the resolu-
tions sub committees work, the law
and order plank contained the follow
ing clause, which was dropped out
later:
with regard to the sale and manu-
facture of Intoxicating beverages, the
Republican party will stand for the
enforcement of the Constitution of the
United States as it shall be declared
by the Supreme Court"
This clause, leaders explained, was
written before the courts decision last
Monday.

Lowdcn Defers Comment
Governor Lowden announced that he
would make no statement tonight on
the platform.

DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler declared
that approval of the league plank by
all factions in the convention insured
"thc fullest strength Of the Republican
party in support of obstructive
policy"
''The position of the party is made
even stronger" he added, "by the de-

against any surrender of the sovereign
powers Of this nation, bought with so
much blood and fraught with so much

"The people are not compromisers in
matters of principle" he added.
Senator ". G. Harding said he had
not read the platform, but probably
would have a statement after digest

"Of course any declaration that COM

Harvey Aids Literary Polish
1t is understood that in touching up
the literary polish of the plank Colonel

helped, remaining in the subcommittee
session while it put on the finishing
touches.

its acceptance removed the only obsta-

as it was received three weeks ago
from Mr.. Root"
To this statement Senator Borah
said his side had secured omission Of
many provisions in another text SUBJ
mitted yesterday by Mr.. Mills - the
Crane plank.
The compromise plank was described
by Senator Borah as establishing these
three principles for which the "iryec

of any pledge for ratification. Com
mendation of the Senate for refusing
to ratify. A statement that any future
can ideals and the principles of Wash

Senator Lodge had no statement to

ference, but he Immediately went into
consultation with Senator Watson, Of
Indiana, head Of the sub committee,
who, with Senator Smoot, of Utah, had
been at work all night to bring the
battling elements into harmony.
Irish Plank Defeated
The subcommittee defeated two at
tempts to place an Irish plank in the
platform. The first was said to have
been approved by Eamonn De Valera,
president of the Irish Republic" The
sece nd, proposed by Louis Coolidge, of
Massachusetts,, read:

had dyspepsia, or some other sort
of misery in your stomach"
What shall do?" asked Solo
mon Owl. insects are scarce at
this season of the year. OF course,
there are frogs-but l don't seem
to care for them. And there are
fish--but they're not easy to get.
for they don't come out of the wa
ter and sit on the bank, as frogs
do"
How about pullets?" Aunt Polly
inquired.
At that Solomon Owl let out a
long row of boots, because he was
pleased.
The very thing!" he cried,
That's what I've been wanting all
this time. And 1 never gu&sed it.
=. III pay you for your ad-
vice the next time I see YOU" he
told Aunt Polly. And Solomon owl
hurried away before she could
stop him. Since he had no inten-
ton of visiting her on grounding
day, he knew it would be spring
before he saw Aunt Polly Wood
chuck again.
The old lady scolded a bit. And
it did not make her feel any pleas
anter to hear Solomon's mocking
laughter, which grew fainter and
fainter as he left the pasture be-
hind him. Then she went inside
her house, for she was fast grow
ing sleepy. And she wanted to set
things to rights before she began
her long winters nap.
Meanwhile, Solomon Owl roam
ed restlessly through the woods.
There was only one place in the
where he could get
a pullet. That was at Farmer
Green's chicken house. And for
some reason he did not care to
visit the farm buildings until it
grew darker.
So he amused himself by making
the woods echo with his strange
cry. 'Whoo-whoo-whoo. whoo-
whoo, to-whoo-ah." And now and |
then he threw in few "wha-
whas," just for extra measure.
Many of the forest folk who
heard him remarked that Solomon 1
Owl seemed to be in extra fine spir-
is.
Probably its the hunters moon
