him. John W. Davis vote had
dwindled to 81 on the last ballot last
night, and early today Davis was re-
garded as a negligible factor in the
proceedings.
Deep silence fell upon the hall as
the clerk commenced to call the roll
on the forty-third ballot Every one
was on tiptoe of expectation OF pos
sible changes from last night. The
first notable change was loss to NC
Adoo of twenty votes when Oklahoma
went over to Robinson of Arkansas.
Michigan passed on the call while the
delegation was canvAssed and then
reported McAdoo fifteen, a loss of one,
and Smith fifteen, gain of three.
Florida took one from UNDERWOOD
and gave it to Ralston. Illinois stood
bat on last nights vote. Smith lost
one in Montana and half vote in
New Hampshire, McAdoo getting the
other half New York showed no
changes. He also gained one and a
half in North Carolina
So the first ballot of the day con-
cluded without any signs of the
threatened landslide, the change in
Oklahoma's vote having been ex-
pected.
During the forty-fourth roll call
emissaries Of McAdoo invaded the
Virginia delegation, beseeching the
transfer OF the Carter Glass votes to
McAdoo. 1t was reported Senator
Glass was willing to lend the votes
to Mr. McAdoo for q few ballots, any
how, but there is strong opposition to
McAdoo in the delegation.

they would try to put on a little
more speed. He had. however, put in
buster day about the floor and had
issued statement gently setting
forth the virtues of his man as a
compromise candidate better calcu-
lated to unite the party than any
other" Reports also circulated about
the floor that Mississippi and Okla
homa. then in the McAdoo column,
were ready to switch at "a word from
Taggart.
The Arkansas and Virginia delega-
tions stuck throughout the day to
their respective favorite sons-Sena-
tors Robinson and Glass-despite ef-
fort to get them into the McAdoo
line, and their leaders insisted they
intended to stay out until the last
ballot revealed their man, as the case
happened to be. the winner. Ohio
maintained a similar attitude with
Cox. and so did Maryland with Gov.
Richie, while former Senator Sauls-

Two Mistakes to Avoid.
Amid it's groupings for ways and
means of breaking the deadlock, the
convention is haunted by two majo
fears-first, that in a somewhat
panic stricken desire to end the
agony, it may nominate a ticket of
colorless mediocrity; secondly, that
whoever is nominated, smarting con-
troYcrSieS. factional bitterness and
disappointed hopes will remain be-
hind in such profusion as to max e
the 1924 campaign loves labor lost
for the democracy.
An official of the national commit
tee said to this writer. 1T looks as
if we would have to wage two sepa-
rate campaigns this year. The first
campaign will be campaign to re-
establish harmony within our owR
ranks When that campaign is
fought and won We'll have to carry
on the real campaign against the
timated that two months will be re-
ouired at least. to restore united
Democratic front. He believes it
can and will be done, no matter what
the convention does.
That is getting TO be pretty gen
eral belief At Baltimore, 1912, Will
son and Marshall were nominated
after a hot fight and forty-six bal
lots. At San Francisco in 1920 Cox
and Roosevelt were not nominated
until after Cox. McAdoo and Palmer
had waged a terrific struggle. Four
suuabbles over the platform. But
leaders are recalling that neither
twelve nor four years ago did the re
examinations and near-riots of the
convention long project themselves
into the campaign against the COM
mon foe.

There is a rapidly spreading spirit
of Indignation and protest among the
delegations against the personal inter-
ference of McAdoo and Gov. Smith in
the proceedings of the convention and
the dictatorial attitude they assume
toward delegates. McAdoo has his
headquarters in hotel near the hall
and Gov. Smith is at the Manhattan
Club on another street opposite the
hall. They send for delegates to solicit
their votes, and are said to "bawl out''
those who leave them
Fret Over 1NaSxinE.,
One prominent delegate said today
that the delegates are fretting over
the nagging of these two candidates.
Gov. Smiths place is in Albany and
we think he ought to be back in the
to leave town on the next train.
They are both hurting themselves

delegate.
After three ballots had been taken

anxiety and expectation Of a possi-
delegates settled down to the pros
pect Of still another long day Of
skirmishing.
Tremendous pressure has been
brought upon McAdoo to quit. It is
said that even his closest friend and
Baruch, advised him to let his in
structed and unit rule delegates have
their head and try to break the dead
lock.
McAdoo. it is said. gets furious at
these suggestions and becomes more
obdurate.
Smith Seen Near Peak.
Smith is believed to have reached
nearly the peak Of his strength and
will be content to try to keep the
nomination from going to McAdoo.
In that policy he will be supported
by the big states Of Illinois, Indiana,
Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York
until 1t is possible to agree upon q
compromise candidate.
Last night McAdoo made frantic
efforts to increase his lead. Bryan
had stirred the delegates to mingled
emotions with his impassioned ap-
peal in McAdoo's behalf. He sent
personally for Senator Robinson to
ask him to withdraw and turn the
Arkansas votes into the McAdoo
column. He also asked Senator
Swanson to deliver the Glass Vir-
ginia delegation to him.

HOw to Build the ..Big Brother'' of the
Supersensitive One-Tube Set.

Part I.
The reports received from fans who
have constructedw the one tube super
sensitive set have been unanimous in
their approval of the good qualities
of the set as regards distance, range,
volume and quality of reproduction.
Many have said in effect: "If one
tube will give such remarkable re-
suits in this hook-up, what will be
| the results obtained IL more tubes are
added to it?"
1t is not desirable nor necessary to
add stages of radio frequency ampli-
fcation to the set, as the distance
getting qualities of the receiver are
sufficient to satisfy most fans. What
most fans would like Is to increase
the volume of the set to the extent
that 1t could be used TO entertain the
whole house. with sufficient reserve
power to entertain large assemblages
in halls and the like II necessary.
Today, therefore, am beginning
series of articles on a powerful
four-tube set, using essentially the
same circuit for the detector stage,
but with the addition of three stages
lof audio frequency anfpiifcation for
great volume.
.Absence OF Noises.
II the set Is constructed as shown In
the panel layouts and with the design
characteristics specified, you need not
be afraid of noises through the use
of such high amplification.
If you do not intend to follow di-
rections, however, you had better let
il alone.
