Haugen equalization scheme, but
without naming equalization.
Governor Moody, who had threat
ened to carry his objections to the
dry plank into a fight on the floor,
made a speech stating he had stood
for the bone dry recommendations
of the Texas State delegation, but
stood alone in the platform COM
naittee, and hence was willing to
acquiensce in the majority report
Glass Makes Statement
Senator Carter Glass also made
; statement Of his position, but no
minority report against the dry
plank was presented. Governor
Ritchie of Maryland argued against
the majority plank and pleaded for
a more liberal attitude" toward
Interpretation of the Eighteenth
Amendment and for Estates rights"
and personal liberty"
The convention adopted the plat
form without a record vote.
After the prohibition subject and
the platform had been disposed of,
balloting started. Smith rolled up
imposing totals as his followers
shouted approval Of every State that
swung to him.
When the full roster has been
called, Smith had 724 2-3 votes
Switching then began amid a
tumult, as several delegation speak
ers tried to get recognition.
Smith Given $40
Finally, when three groups-the
Tennessee, Mississippi and Okla
hona delegations-had been polled
because their announcements were
questioned, the official total showed:
Smith, $40 2-3; Reed, So; George,
5212; Woollen, Z; Ayers, 8; Hitch
cock, 2; Hull, so Sc; Pomerene, 8;
Jones, 43; Thompson, 2; Chief
Justice Watts, South Carolina, 10.
Senator Pat Harrison of Missis-
sippi had 20 complimentary votes
on the original call Ohio's switch
before announcement of the vote
put Smith cover the top"
Smiths strength had been sur
passed in recent years only in 1916,
when Woodrow Wilson was noni-
mated by reclamation. -Four years
ago in Madison Square Garden, New
York, it took 103 ballots before the
candidate, John w. Davis, was
named.

Announcement Of the Smith total
touched off a wild demonstration.

1t was about l o'clock when the
show finally ended. Many had quit
the hall before the close, so as to
be ready for the 10 o'clock start to-

lThe hunt for Roald Amundsen, Arc
tic explorer, who with five men
started out to search for the crew
lpf the dirigible Italia, appears to
have failed.
The big Italian airplane, Marina,
made a accommodating tour over the
coast of Bear Island and reported by
wireless that no trace of Anundsen,
Rene Guilbaud or others Of that ex-
pedition had been seen.
4 Operators from the Bear Island
radio station made land explora-
ton for Anundsen. This had been
ordered after numerous reports were
received that Anundsen and his
plane had been seen off Bear Island.
The operators were unable to find
the Arctic explorer.
But the search will continue with
additional planes. Captain H. Riser
Larsen and Lieutenant Luetzow
Holm, who have been working by
airplane off the steamer Braganza,
announced they would fly back to
Kings Bay Immediately. From there
they will make accommodating flights
in search Of AnlundSen.

HUNT GANG KILLERS
One Held, 10 Sought In
Death of Tim Murphy.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, June 29.-With one
man booked on murder charges, DO
lice today continued their search
for ten others wanted in connec-
ton with the assassination Tuesday
night Of Big Tim Murphy, labor
leader.
John Hand, business agent for
the Candy Jobbers' Union, pro-
tested innocence, but Detective
Chief Grady said evidence was
strong enough to warrant indict-
ment.
Frank Noonan and James For
syth, alleged members of a rae
keteer ring which controls the city's
cleaning and dying industry, will be
booked for murder as soon as ar
rested, Deputy Police Commissioner
O'Connor said.
Police theory is that Murphy was
killed because he tried to force his
way into the prosperous cleaning
and dyeing racket
