Needs a Lot More Jazz, Says
New York Woman Delegate

SAN FRANCISCO. June 2s.-"The
thing this convention needs moro
than anything else and the thing TIA
got less of, Is jazz" said Miss Elisa
beth Mnrbury, delega large from
New York, or. as she puts 1t. large
delegate"
THE first thing / thought Of whom
l arrived here was who's dead q"
she said. And yet. despite the fu-
neral air that pervSdes convention
circles, I've found more TO laugh
about than 1 ever imagined could be
crowded into one city.
'I suppose I ought to be as solemn
as all TN rest; but honestly. 4 can't
take things seriously as far as they've
gone. Why doesn't somebody stat
something? II some one doesn't eH-
plode a f1recracker before long it will
be as bad as the Republican conven-
tion.
Il was told to be sure and be here
last Saturday 30 as to participate in
several important conferences.'
Well. l got here all right, but the
only conference I've had was with
the head waiter at my hotd.
what do 1 think about McAdoos
withdrawal Why, / don't think
anybody has or Is going 20 with
draw. In fact, II the candidates keep
bobblng up there will be three or
four apiece for every delegate.
'-Thcy tell me the reason the candi-
dates campaign managers haven't
sprung anything now or much OF any
thing old either, Is that they are con-
ducting 'dignified' campaigns. Well
II they want TO keep their political
wares a deep. dark secret, just let
them keep on being dignified. Ono
OF them is going TO got wise 10 him
self and hire Doug Fairbanks press
agent and he'll grab the nomination
before the others wake up.
NOW the Republicans' convention
was just made 10 order for us-l
couldn't have been better II we had
run II for them, Why not take ad
vantage of II and raise n little dust
out here, Just TO let the people know
we've alive"

TelegTams Urging Them to
Stop Activity at San Fran

SAY ITS DUTY TO RUN.
Evade Even the Persistent Op-
position of Mrs. McAdoo
to Husbands Nomination.
By DdDid Laurence.
Especial -c0rrespOndent Of The


Evening Worldly
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. June 25.
Copyright is2O.)-The veil Of doubt
concerning the McAdoo candidacy is
lifting. Friends Of the former Secre-
tary OF the Treasury have formed
militant organization determined to
nominate him over his own protest.
Telegrams are coming to several OF
these men TO stop their activity and
take Mr. McAdoo at his word, but
they are unavailing.
Indeed, the latter is reliably re-
ported to have told Senator Glass in
a conference in Now York last week
that II his name were presented for
nomination. the Virginia Senator
was authorized TO say 1t was being
done without his consera or sane
tion.
Nevertheless Senator Glass is
openly Tor McAdoo's nomination and
will make a fight for II. The story
told by men in the confidence of Mr..
McAdoo bears out the reasons given
publicly by the former Director Gem
eral of Railroads. They say he has
considered the question from every
angle and that he has a horror Of
having the Grown prince" argument
and criticism OF a similar vein con-
cerning his relationship with Presi-
dent Wilson flung at him and his
family during a political campaign.
MRS. MeADOo STRONGLY oP.
POSES HIS NOMINATION.
They declare. moreover. that Mrs.
McAdoo has been consistently op-
posed to the return OF her husband
to public life, She knows the extent
to which public and private criticism,
together with the almost superhuman n
burdens Of the White House itself,
can interfere with personal comfort
and happlness-her own father broke
down in health and her mother died
while in the White House.
Every friend of McAdoo here says
he Is thoroughly sincers in his dis
inclination to run for office. Why
nominate him then?
To that question comes the uniform
answer from these same McAdoo men
THAT in a time like this personal
tastes or convenience cannot out
weigh the duty that a man may owe
to his party apd his country. They
are absolutely determined that Nc

Says Underworld of Food Trade is
 in Conspiracy

New York, June Exchanging that the "underworld of the food trade" has conspired to create food short ages and boost prices, Edwin J. o. Malley, commissioner of public mar kets, today made an appeal for the establishment of central market sys- tenn through which the city could control the handling and distribution of perishable foodstuffs.
 Hundreds of millions of dollars have been lost to consumers through this conspiracy which has five times threatened the city with famine, MT. O'Malley asserted. Prominent mer- chants and bankers were either di- rectors or indirectly involved in the transactions, he said.
 "New York cannot grow and pros- per under such conditions" he con- tinued, ''the searchlight on the un- derworld of the food trade has shown where spectators are working sec retly and in cahoots, with the rail roads.
 "Speculators buy produce in the country and then reject in on ar rival if markets do not guarantee large profits. The railroads, inter- ested only in collecting the freight charges, sell at greatly reduced prices, often to the same dealers who originally rejected the commo- dities.
 cone of the large trunk railroads admits that 10 car loads of Texas onions, purchased in Texas at from $1O,OOO to $12,0O0 a car, were sold in New York at from $200 to $500 car Only two of them brought the cost o1 freight. "It was also discovered that merchants and bankers of unques- toned financial standing were in this game indirectly, taking their prof it's from the operations of some ot these unfair dealers"
