FROM TRAIN PLATFORM

Thirteen Cities.
By the Associated Press.


CLEVELAND, June 1S-wiIliam G.
McAdoo, candidate for the Demo-
cratic presidential nomination stumped
Ohio yesterday from the platform of a
Baltimore and Ohio train on which he
is travelling to New York for the con-
yention.
Although the trip was unadvertised
and unheralded. he was greeted by
large crowds at thirteen cities in this
state where the train stopped for a
few minutes
Because of the brevity of the stops.
Mr.. McAdoo spent the time in shak-
ing hands 1t was merely an occa-
sion that permitted him to say
hello"
He expressed the hope that "the
Democratic convention nominates a
Progressive candidate on Progress
sive ticket adding that, ''if it does
| promise to come back and make
a speech during the campaign"
The candidate did not attempt any
serious or detailed discussion of can
didates or issues. indicating that the
latter is for the convention to settle.
I'm glad to be in Ohio, the home
state of James NJ. Cox. whom / ad-
mire very much" Mr.. McAdoo shouted
as his train pulled out of THIN.
His last stop in the state was made

IT don't know what the Democrats

their standard bearer, but unless they
adopt a platform of progressive
ideals-one which will conform with

Senator Foresees Gloom and La
Toilette Winning Six States.

BOSTON, June 1s.-Soup kitchens
and bread lines and victory for Sena-
tor La Toilette as presidential can
didate IN surely six and possibly
twelve states were predicted last
night by Senator Royal s. Copeland,
who advocated the nomination of
Gov Smith of New York before the
National Democratic Club Of Massa-
chusettS.
Senator Copeland devoted most of
his speech to the plight of the Amer
lean farmer and the indifference of
the Republican administration toward
him" The farmers" he said, ARE
either bankrupt or on the verge of
bankruptcy. More than 500 banks in
the northwest have been closed up
because of deplorable conditions there"
The New York junior senator said
that the gloomy aspect of things
would remain unaltered unless a
candidate of marked sympathy for
the needs of the American farmer
and the people in general was put
up by the Democrats to drive the
Republicans out of power.

A majority of the theaters reported
that plenty of seats yet remained for

said that the top box office price for
any New York attraction during the
convention would be $3.50, which is
the prevailing scale for the big fnu-
sical productions. Other top-price
seats will go at s3.s5 five nights a
week and $40 on Saturday; others
will sell at S2.75, save on Saturday
night, when they will be sold for

Stated by La Toilette.
The whole case against the con-
vention was put in a nutshell by
Senator La Toilette when he said:
Although the national Communist
organization as such may be granted
only five delegates in the st. Paul
convention, the basis of representa-
tion adopted is lending itself TO their
purpose to control Reposing COM
plete confidence in the soundness of
the deliberate judgment of the Amer
lean people, | have no apprehension
That the Communist party can ever
com mmand any considerable support
IN this country. / do not question
their right. under the Constitution, to
submit their issues to the people, but
l most emphatically protest against
their being admitted into the councils
OF any body of progressive voters"
Notwithstanding Mr.. La Follette's
advice, the leaders here did admit the
Communists and give them important
places on the committees, and even
selected as permanent chairman State
Senator Charles E. Taylor of Mon
tana, friend OF William q. Foster
and a man who, while not a member
or the Communist party, admits his
sympathy with that group
Mahoney shows Hand.
At the very outset William J. Ma
honey, temporary chairman, let the
cat out of the bag by revealing that
although La F'ollette's letter was
cruel blow, nevertheless he had a well
advertised name and It would be a
splendid club with which 10 break up
the Republican and Democratic par
ties. That's why there is still a de-
sire to name La Toilette, but the Wis
consin senator knows that il he is to
have the support of the conference
for progressive political action, which
meets at Cleveland on July 4, he must
continue to keep himself from being
in any way connected with the st
Paul convention and its Communistic
delegates.
The fight here is to make a perma-
nent party organization and there are
enough Communist delegates to per-
NIT the national executive committee
to accept ayowed Communists in it's
personnel. This committee would be
analogous to the national committee
of the Republican or Democratic
parties, and ist chances OF amount
ing to anything in the future depend
upon its Willingness or unwillingness
to oust the Communists.
Purposes OF Communists.
Irrespective of what happens here,
one may predict a short life for the
national executive committee if it
doesn't ultimately get rid of the Com
munists. They belong in no scheme
which has for its object constitutional
methods of securing political power.

BUTTER, LIKE GOLD, HAS WORLDWIDE PRICE GAUGE
Price of Dairy Goods Depends on Conditions in Four Corners
 Of the World

San Francisco. April @5.-Butter. like gold. has a worldwide standard Of value, il is pointed out in a review of the i9es market by the California Dairy council. The review says:
 Milk may he produced. manufac- tured into butter and sold 10 a house. wife within a radius Of ten miles, but the price of that butter is determined by conditions in the four corners of the world.
 No other article of commerce, ex- cept the precious metal, is so uniform the world around as the product of the dairy COW, Of which butter fat is the foundation. Whether it comes from New Zealand. or Nova Scotia, Denmark, Wisconsin or California, it is simply butter when il reaches the markets of New York. Chicago and san Francisco, and tho prices in all cities. with dne allowance for slight freight rate differentials, are practl- cally the same.
 During 1928 average prices oi dairy products throughout the eoun- try increased--,hutter l7 per cent cheese Is per cent condensed milk 30 per cent. and marketed milk I, per cent"
