Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Chicago, June 1.-THE Grand Old
Party adopted its 1920 platform with
viva vocc vote that made the Coliseum
ring.
The platform with its various com
promises on the sentiment OF several
groups representing the industrial
question and economic issues went
through without hitch worth the
name.
Chicago's city hall and Wisconsin
fought to cause Il diversion after Sen
ator Watson of Indiana had finished
baritoning the resolutions. Delegate
Gross of Wisconsin arose with n mi
nority report The Badger state was
ready to conform-hardly II convention
passes without minority plank of
some sort which is invariably tossed
out with the "culls."
Delegates and gallery 'razzed"
Gross as lie started to read, but after
energetic use of the gavel by Chair
man Lodge, quiet was restored.
The minority plank had to do,
among other things, with the League
the treaty, resumption of peace and
kindred things. 1t sounded like "a
fragment from LaFollette speech
one idea it advocated was gradual
acquisition and government ownership
of the stock yards" Storms of Noe"
followed this. The hall was in an up
roar.
Gross asked for II Toll call on his
material, but ii required the seconding
of TWO other states to put this over.
No other states responded and the mi
nority substitute was wiped out by a
viva yoce vote that showed all lungs i'll
excellent working order.
Delegate Oscar de Priest, from the
First Illinois district. who, as alder
man. was one of Mayor ThompSons
floor leaders in the city council, got
up with Il plank in his hands. 1t had
tu do with rigid enforcement of the
fourteenth amendment in southern
states.
tn Jumped Senator Sherman, who
an hour before had Supplanted Mayor
Thompson as new national committee
man
.J-nder the rules he said, this
should be referred to the resolutions
committee"
The point is sustained, held Chair
man Lodge, which caused another gale
of laughter, inasmuch as the resolu-
rions committee is through with its du-
ties.
Senator Lodge cracked down the
eayel and ordered the rolf of states for
the nnmes of the next national commit
teemen. Many an old-timer fell out by
the way as the call progressed.
John King dropped out as commit
teeman from Connecticut.
The delegates and galleries made
the welkin ring when Senator Sherman
was announced as committeeman from
Illinois, supplanting Mayor Thompson.
Murray Crane, colonel of the Ola
Guard. who tied up the platform COM
mittee after it thought its original COM
promise on the League of Nations was
ready for the o. X. of 'reservationists
and "irreconcilables" of all shades,
walked the plank as committeeman
from Massachusetts. John w. Weeks
takes his place.
