The cornerstone of his whole life has been his sisters unfailing and militant support. At the close of countrywide speech making campaign of months, she came to Chicago to crystalize his support. She began her work within the hour of her arrival and never ceased efforts until the balloting began. All during the convention she sat in her box, consulting, ca : Joling, ra1lying reluctant delegates. That she was fully aware of the seriousness of the situation was of- ten reflected in her face, When nominatofns for the vice. president began, she leaned forward with her hands on the railing clasped so tight they showed white at the knuckles. Not until the Pennsyi- vania delegation changed its vote did her face relax into . smile.
 When New York gave its tre- mendous vote to General Har- bord, Mrs Gam saw all the years of struggle for her brother. First she was his secretary. She nursed his invalid wife, was second mother to his children and cli- maxed her career of helpfulness in her fight for his re-nomination.

 Senators forced their way into the chamber through masses of ex- service men whose tempers have been drawn sharp by weeks of waiting and privation. Automo- piles parked in the plaza was re- empted by the veterans from ring side seats.

 As word drifted down from Capi- tol Hill of the unparalleled dem- onAtration, police rushed reiri- forcements to the senate. Seventy extra patroImen. were on duty when the bonus debate began at 11:20 q. m.
 Police Superintendent Pelham Glassford proposed to-day that the destitute war veterans in the bonus army be set up as farmers on goy- ernment land, in lieu of the $2,- 00,000, 1000 bonus doomed to de- feat in the senate.
 Giassford believed his plan not only would bring about the peace ful evacuation of the bonus army, but could be expanded to aid thousands of others unemployed. He proposed that each veteran be given from three to ten acres of land and equipment for culti- vating It. They could at least pro- duce their own food, he believed. In 1919.

 The demonstration was carefully organized. Instructions of the di. rector were flashed by means of large numerals on placards to his lieutenants scattered in the gal lertes. Even Senator Fess pranced about the platform holding a large portrait of President Hoover on his head.
 Delegates found vent for their diSsatisfactions partly in the pro- fibition fight which resulted in adoption of the administration modification plan.
 It apparently satisfied neither the real vets nor the real drys.
 Mrs Henry w. Peabody of Massachusetts, chairman of the women's national committee for law enforcement. said that "Re- gardIess of the kind words spoken for prohibition in the initial para graphs of the plank. it's reference to submission brands 1t is a repeal measure and dry women oppose 1t and will accept no compromise.
 Vets described 1t as a "strad- de" Even some of the presidents intimate advisors appeared dis turbed over some features of the plank particularly that which would give congress the right to prescribe method of sale and dis tribution of liquor in any state which abandons prohibition. They forcsaw possibilities of constant conflict between congress and To- cal governments.
 Many delegates also voiced dis satisfaction over the administra- tion's attempt to retain Vice Pres ident Curtis as the presidents running mate. The final switch of Pennsylyania's 75 votes after, the roll call was completed gave Cur tis the necessary majority.
 General belief existed that Charles c. Dawes would have been nominated had he not announced he would decline.
 The election of Everett Sanders as national chairman to succeed Senator Fess surprised the dele gates. Sanders was sergeant at arms of the convention. A faith full lieutenant was overnight made tho general of the republican forces.
 Actually the real directing force in the campaign will be Postmas- ter General Walter F. Brown of Ohio, the presidents unofficial campaign manager. He did not wish to leave the cabinet and stand up as national chairman to be shot at continuously.
