Radio Message Through Arctic Daylight Tells
 Plans

 NEW YORK, June 15.-Donald B. MacMillan, explorer and Arctic radio expert of The Age Herald and the North American Newspaper Alliance, is pre- pairing to move within short time from ice-bound Refuge Harbor, in the north of Greenland. This is the word brought by the latest radio message to be received from his vessel, the Bow doin, which sailed north last summer carrying radio equipment into the Are tic for the first extended experiment in air communication to and from polar regions.
 That MacMillan's latest message got through to the American continent in spite of increasing daylight is cited by radio experts as another proof of the success of his experiment.
 Message Relayed
 The message, picked up in Canada, was relayed to Hiram Percy Mixim,

CAPITAL SOCIETY PLANS INVASION
 OF MANHATTAN
Proximity Of Convention City Draws Many
 Other Gossip.

Copyright, 1924, for The Age-Herald)
 WASHINGTON. June 15.-The hosts of democratic society in the capital will begin a pilgrimage soon toward Man. haitian, to join the throngs who will watch the party chiefs from the sidelines as they pick their candidates.
 The convention seat is convenient to the capital this year, nearer than it has been since the democratic conven- tion in Baltimore in 1912. Because of this, it will attract large numbers of society people, who mix in the political picture more closely here, perhaps, than in any other city.
 Have Large Place
 There is this further attraction. Women will have larger place than ever in the convention this year, and social leaders from the capital of demo- cratic persuasion will participate in the the numerous affairs that have been planned for the women delegates and al- ternates. In addition to the 800 women delegates and alternates to the ,conven- tion, hundreds of others will have a part in the councils outside the conven- tion hall.
 There is one leading democratic wom- on, however, who will not be present. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson will not attend the convention, but will content herself with listening i'm on the radio at her $ street home.
 Another cabinet wedding in the ofRing if the republicans win the election, and Secretary of Commerce Hoover re- mains in the official family. For Her bert Hoover, Jr., and Miss Margaret Watson, daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Douglas Watson of San Francisco, whose engagement was announced the other day, will not be married until they finish their courses at Leland Stan ford university next June.
 Legal luminaries the nation over are that Chief Justice Taft has cancelled his trip to England to attend the meeting there in July of the Amer ican Bar association. Mrs. Taft, who is now abroad, will return iii August and join her husband at their summer home in Murray Bay, Canada.
 The minister from Switzerland, Mir. Vearo Peter, who has been visiting at home for six weeks, is expected to ar- rive in New York early next week. His wife will not return until the fall.
 Other diplomats are having the capi- tai for various summer resorts. Some of them are planning to follow the example of Ambassador Jusserand of France, who will visit American historical shrines during the summer. The French ambassador is an authority on Amer ican history.
 The Peruvian ambassador, Dr. Val arde, was the guest of honor Saturday of Dr. Solon Polo, president of the Peruvian arbitration commission, who sixteen guests at luncheon.

Adherents Of McAdoo
 Fear Old-Line Bosses
Favorite Sons To Provide Shelter For Delegates
 Waiting For Band Wagon

ger of New Jersey ex-Goyernor Cox oi Ohio; Senator Glass of Virginia John W. Davis of New York and West Vir. ginia Senator Kendrick of Wyoming and possibly few others who will bot up in the early ballots. The principle function of most of these favorite son candidates is to provide shelter to doubtful delegates who are waiting for the bandwagon to come along. :,
 Some-like Ralstun, Ritchie, Glass and Silzer-will be seriously discussed by the convention bosses as compromise possibilities. John W. Davis has more strength than would appear on the sur face, but his Wall street legal connec- tions are always advanced against him.
 Corruption To Be Issue
 The democratic leaders, generally speaking. want to disassociate them- selves from big business and fight an aggressive campaign against the repub- licans on the corruption issue. It offers their best opportunity to capitalize the Teapot Dome and Daugherty scandals. They are disinclined to tie their hands by nominating representative of the Morgan house, however able and honest he is personally. It is no reflection upon the man. It just brings that political conditions make it seem an unwise choice.
 Unless the New York convention breaks away from its managers, the of the candidate se- lected-will go before the country as a progressive, liberal party designed not only to catch the discontented repub- lican vote, but to prevent any losses to TaFnllette
 It is the LaFollette complication which causes the democrats the most worry. A sharp line is drawn between the progressive democrats and the con- Coolidge-Dawes ticket. But LaFollette is going to run as a pro- gressive himself, unless all present in- dications prove false. The democrats are worried lest the progressive vote be split between them and LaFollette
 Hence, at New York, there will be an attempt to play the spotlight on Senator Walsh and on-Senator Wheeler, One of them may land on the ticket in second place.

 WASHINGTON, June 15.--"Who have the democrats got2, is the ques- tion with which az; current arguments over politics either begin or end.
 Although the democratic convention. which opens June 24, is now barely a week away, the situation with respect to the field of candidates is as. vague as it was six months ago. One of the strangest features of it is the widely held conviction that the two strongest candidates-William G. McAdoo and Al Smith-cannot get the nomination. Those who are generally conceded a real chance at the nomination consist of a string of favorite sons, colorless for the most part, and hardly heard of outside of their own states.
 Briefly, the democratic situation at the threshold of the convention is about like this:
 Situation At Present
 McAdoo has the largest number of delegates. His friends say he will show more than GOO votes after few ballots, and tha; tiiis will be sufficient to attract enough additional delegates to give him the 732 necessary to be nominated But many others believe he will fall down before a combina tion of hostile, old line bosses, led by Tom Taggart of Indiana, George Brennan of Illinois. and the Tammany crowd. Al Smith appears likely to go into the balloting with the second largest number of votes. His friends claim upward of 300. But here again, all except his own friends, believe that the dry south and the dry west will com bine to stop him.
 Third in the list is Underwood, with sixty to seventy-five votes. His only chance is to inherit Al Smiths follow ing should the latter be forced out. But that is something that is not settled yet.
 Favorite Sons Numerous
 Then there is the field of favorite sons, including Senator Robinson of Arkansas: ex-Senator Salisbury of Delaware; Senator Ralston of Indiana Governor Jonathan Davis of Kansas Governor Ritchie of Maryland; Sena- tor Ferris of Michigan; Governor Ell.

WET CHIEFTAIN POINTS VICTORY
 FOR DEMOCRATS
Insist Plan Will Turn The Trick, Declares
 Stayton

WASHINGTON, June 15.-T h e democratic party can win this year if it puts a moist" plank in it's platform, according to Capt. w. H. ,Stayton, head of the association against the prohibition amendment.
 Failure of the republican conyen- tion to take other than an lon the fence" attitude on the wet and dry question insures defeat for the Coolidge Dawes ticket if the democratic party takes liberal attitude on it, Stayton said.
 Vain Attempt }
 'The framers of the republican plat form made brave but ~ain attempt to please both wet and dry factions by riding the fence," he continued, If the democratic generals are wise at the convention of their party they will take advantage of the action of the grand old party, and will be more liberal, thereby assuring success at the coming November election.
 "Our political men are daily sending in to national headquarters reports of dissatisfaction with the Volstead law. DOAVot oA HuuDCE OA ury CdHOtudLeS III the primaries tends to dominate the at- titude of the people on the question.
 With -a modification plank, the democrats would, no doubt, carry New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Con- necticut, Rhode Island, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Maryland and California, the majority of which are normally re- publican states, but the voters of which have very intense antipathy of the Volstead law, properly feeling, as they do, that it interferes with their rights as American citizens.
 sF South Not Feared
 "The claim of the Anti-Saloon League that southern states will support dry republicans in preference to wet demo- crats is ridiculous. The southern states have always gone democratic and de- spite the fact that the feeling against the prohibition law is not as strong as in the north and middlewestern states, they will stay in the democratic column.
 There is also reason to believe that the democrats would carry Michigan, Montana and Washington with a moist plank.
 Tt boils down to this: If demo- cratic leaders are wide-awake and will take advantage of the almost nation wide popular demand for modification of the Volstead4 law, there will be an- other landslide in November and it won't be for the elephant" Stayton concluded.

FLOOD WRECKAGE. YIELDS 2 BODIES.
fContinued From Page One )

Continued From Page One,) '.'- Only a wisp of the older girls hair was visible when her body was located.
 The bodies of Mrs. Lum Smith, her 7-year-old son, and Mae Ellis, G. year-old girl, whose body was kept from following the flood by her dress catching in barbed wire fence, were found Saturday.
 The bodies yet unfound are those of Mrs. Cecil Lewis, wife of the man of that name in a hospital here, with her two sons and mother of the two children whose bodies were found to- day on the banks of the Watauga, three other children, aged 14, eight and ten years Lum Smith, A. B. Trick and saw mill hand. whose name has not been learned.
 Repair Trackage
 .-RailFoad crews, hastened to the scene following reports of the flood, tonight were, toiling to repair damaged trackage of the Appalachian division of the Southern railway. About 14 miles of the railroads lines between Hunter and Butler will have to be re- placed, torrents from the mountain coves having swept away fills, trestles and bridges. Other sections of the division are strewn with uprooted trees, brush, earth and boulders, some as large as automobiles.
 Similar lavoc was .~yed with the Laurel Fork railway in the Hampton Bramear section, four or five miles to the west.
 Reports coming in today from the flooded area, which is about eight miles wide and 15 miles long, indicate that a score of houses, barns and mills were washed away. Most of these buildings were at Gardens Bluff and Fish Springs, small villages on the bank of the Watauga.
 Major Dix, of the southern division of the Red Cross, arrived at the scene of the food today and immediately began an investigation.
 Most of the affected families are poor. Headed by the Red Cross chap ter of Elizabethton, citizens of that place are rendering what immediate aid is needed. A campaign for funds to relieve the stricken already has been started.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, June 15.- The Indians of Knik, an old settlement at the head of Cook Inlet, are in dire distress because of the ancient GUS tom of remaining where their fathers and grandfathers died.

AS TO TIA JUANA'S SIRENS Mexican Towns Saloon Harpies No
 Beauty Prize Candidates

From every saloon on Main street, Tia Juana, Mexico, come the hectic strains of jazz orchestra or a jazz piano. In the doOrways of the dingier and smellier saloons on the side streets stand little clumps of somewhat under dressed ladies who lure the passerby with honeyed words delivered in the same melliflous timbre that character izesc the vocal efforts of the Marseilles ladies who devote their days to shouting the excellencies of nice fresh sea ur- chins, spails, mussels and other lowlife sea food.
 Though one is naturally loath to speak slightingly of any member of the gentler sex, it should be remarked in the interests of science and truth that if one needed to split himself a mess of kindling wood and lacked the con ventiolal hatchet, he might easily ac- complish his purpose by substituting the faces of any of these hoarse-voiced in- habitants of Tia Juana's side streets.- Kenneth l.. Roberts in the Saturday Evening Post.
