10 meet national issues. His friends say he doesn't need a platform. He has q record. IL extends back exact. came 10 congress. Since then he has cast his vote as an expression Of his opinion about national problems, in- stead Of making speeches or state ments about them.
 Examination by the United Press of his votes during the last two ses- sions Of congress showed he voted for the following:
 Rivers and harbor development bill. resolution recommending ar hitration in Mexico: debt retirement in 1927 as against tax reduction; the McNary Haugen farm bill; his own Curtis-Crisp farm bill: the Pepper McFadden bank bill; resolutions barring smith of Illinois and Ware of cnnsylvania; Lafollette resolution against third presidential terms; Norris resolution eliminating lame duck sessions of congress and the George amendment referring the power combine investigation to the federal trade commission.
 During that time he voted against only two important proposals: The Jones bill for government operation of the merchant marine and the Mac Master resolution r. commenting downward revision of the tariff
 Curtis comes by his taciturni'y na- turally. He is part Indian. IL was his Indian grandmother Julie Pap pan who told him one starlit night in an Indian camp on the plains Of Kansas that he should leave his ln- dian life and go 10 the city 10 make | name for himself, He was jockey for a while anl later drove> a night hack in Topeka while he studied law; was elected county prosecutor when he Was .4.
 He is an ardent prohibltionist.
 While ] have no desire 10 die tate what shall be in the noxt re- publican platform he told the United Press, T personally favor a plank referring 10 the 18th amend ment and the laws enacted To carry it into effect, and favor a plank pledging the nominee to a fair, vigorous and faithful enforcement of them.
 'In my opinion ii is tho greatest moral issue of all agas and public sentiment demands that both of the political parties declare themselves unequivocaliy upon it.
 Should be nominated and elect cd president, favor meeting the is- sue squarely and believe in the strict and energetic enforcement of the laws 10 carry out the constitu tional amendment"
 This done he dismissed the inter viewer and rose 10 move the senate into executive session 10 consider presidential nomination, just as he will each day until the June repub- lican convention-doing his job, avoiding the stump and having very little to say about it.
