Ia Toilet IS.
As SILENT As
COOLIDGE
Both Refrain From Comment
on Events at Convention
Platform Reading
BY III. X. REYNOLDS,
international News Service.


President Coolidge and Senator
Robert M. La Toilette were running
neck and neck race today TO
win the crown for monumental
silence.
Both refrained from commenting
on what took place in the Re-
public convention at Cleveland last
night-the adoption of the Coolidge
platform and tho rejection, by an
overwhelming majority, Of the in
surgent planks written by La Fol-
lette
The action Of the convention was
what they both expected, and they
were neither surprised or disap-
pointed today.
Closeted at his home at 2112 Wy
oming avenue, Senator La Toilette
sent out. word that he would have
nothing to say about the attitude
of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS con-
vention at Cleveland toward his Wis
consin platform until the convention
had concluded it's work. the state.
ment might be delayed, it was said,
even until after the Democratic con.
vention. for in his demand for the
reform of the old parties, Senator
La Toilette directed his attention
at the Republican and Democratic
parties Unfortunately.
La Toilette is still standing, his
friends said, on the letter of May
rs in which he said that the Demo
cratic and Republican conventions
would demonstrate to the people
whether either Of these parties can
and will purge itself of the evil in
fluenceS which have long domi-
mated them" They pointed out that
the opportunity to accomplish this
"purg1ng" was presented by the
platform offered by Congressman
Henry Allan Cooper, and rejected
almost unanimously by the conven.
ton.
La Follette's warning was that IL
the two old parties declined to ac-
cept the principles which he ad-
vanced "a long suffering and
righteously indignant people will
find in the Gaming campaign eff
fective means, Independent of both
these old parties, to take back con-
troll OF their Government and make
1t truly representative"
Pleased With Result.
The manner in which the wiscon.
sin delegates have conducted them.
selves at Cleveland in the face of
the hilarious hostility Of the ma
jority OF the delegates pleased Sena-
tor La Toilette immensely. When
his SON phoned him from Cleveland
this morning to report on the hap
penings of last night, the Senator
instructed him to extend his hearty
congratulations to Congressman
cooper and the other members of
the little insurgent group.
President Coolidge's greatest pleas
ure in the adoption of the platform
came, 1t was said at the White
House, from the fact that 1t was
accepted without any public wrang-
ling or disagreemenGs among the
so-called regular Republicans. He
looks upon 1t as a certain indica.
ton OF party harmony.
