Roosevelt's Choice Of
Running Mate

Chicago. July 2.-(P)-North Da-
kota delegates Friday decided to
swing in line for the vice presidential
candidate they expected Governor
Roosevelt would indicate as the most
acceptable to him.
There were members Of the del
egation with personal favoritism for
both Garner and Richie, but DR..
Leavitt of Carson, chairman, said
personal choices would be submerged
by at least nine of the delegates in
order to provide united 'front.'.
The 10th member. George T. Muir
ray of Berthold, conferred with his
brother, Governor Murray Of Okla
homa. The latter considered seeking
the vice presidency but his cause re-
manned in doubt until the final aft
ernoon session was we'll under way.
Brother George said he would sup
port his companion Of runaway days
back In Toadsuck, Texas, as long as
1t was wanted.
There was enthusiasm among the
North Dakota delegates when they
came out of their rooms after Sleep
ing late to catch up for the loss
caused by the all-night session when
Roosevelt's opposition refused to
yield. They had been unanimous for
the winner. with Murray joining on
both the second and fourth ballots,
the last the one which gave the NOM
nation to the New York governor.
North Dakota was the first state
to favor Roosevelt and 1t is proud its
choice went over" DR.. Leavitt said.
Nov we can 60 home and work for
his election in a year which seems to
promise Democratic success In our
state as it has never been promised
before. The Liberals in North Da-
kota will support us-they cannot
back Hoover"
The delegation expects to entrain
for the home trip Saturday night
with short stopover In the Twin
Cities.

Of Missouri, and on the fourth Roose-

cago on at least one ballot when the
latter's name was not placed in NOM
ination.
When Murray voted for Roosevelt
on the second ballot, he had gained
a promise from his fellow delegates
to support Governor Murray on at
least one ballot II Roosevelt aban-
doned the fight. The time never
came for this promise to be fulfilled.
During the massed demonstration
for Roosevelt, which followed assur-
ance Of his support by California and
Texas, North Dakotas banner was
brought to the front Of the hall by
DR.. r. H. Leavitt Of Carson, chair
man. The entire North Dakota del
egation followed It, Murray joining
in the celebration Of victory.

Chicago. July 2.-Governor
Franklin D. Roosevelt of New

The nominee flew here from
Albany in a tri-motored plane.

family and personal friends
after being notified Friday
night of his nomination.
The Chicago Stadium had
never known such a demonstra-
ton and such sustained cheer
ing as greeted the dramatic en-
trance Of the party's standard
bearer of 1882.
Amid tremendous enthusiasm. in
terrupted often by applause, Gov
ernor Roosevelt renewed his pledge
OF faith in the Democratic party.
thanked the convention for the honor
IL had paid him, and then launched
into a declaration of his views on
problems confronting the nation which
is expected to serve as the kevnote
address of his campaign.
HIS flight to Chicago and his ap-
pearance before the convention
marked the first time that such a
thlng had occurred. 1t brought to a

Ventlons in recent American history

healing some Of the wounds which
were made during the heat of con-

nent. Alfred E. Smith, to promise his
support IN the campaign or even COM

friend.

NAMED a mystery much discussed as
the delegates assembled for their last
session. The nominee Of four wears
ago was the only one of all the oppo-
sltlon candidates who did not with

Despite this note Of dissent, the
Roosevelt victory was impressive in its
impetus and extent.

Edison's Vivid Story
Almost Won Believers

Mr.. Edison was keeping as alert
Tin his laboratory by telling one
good story after another. We were
talking about mental concentration.
and he brought up a remarkable In
stance from his own experience.
You know" he said. when | was
young fellow | used to be tele-
graph operator. | was a pretty fast
worker in those days; and TO work
real fast you gotta keep your mind
on just what you're doin' and forgit
everything else.
well, one night a number of mes
sages came over the wire, and re-
ceived them as fast as they licked
in. All at once hear the newsboys
in the streets hollering an extra and
lot of commotion and excitement
going on. ran ont to see what'd
happened and hear. President Lin
coin assassinatedr l asked how
they'd got the news. A man said !:
You On fool. didn't you just git the
message yourselfY
True enough. | had received the
message while earlier. but I had
never got its meaning. My mind
must have been glued pretty fast TO
my work for me to have missed the
meaning of such MESSAGE"
He had told the story so wildly
that we believed II TO be an actual
experience.-M. A. Rosanoff in Har-

Golden Dinner Service
Not Alone for Wealthy

Would you like gold dinner serv-
ice or, rather, one that looks like
gold? If so, it viii not be long be-
fore you can buy ii just as cheaply
as the familiar nickel plate.
Curiously enough, the new gold"
is made in Sheffield, England, the
city of steel The first just-like-gold
dinner service was made as the re
suit of joke. Messrs. w. Turner
and company had been experimenting
for some time with a new alloy of
aluminium and bronze which has all
the appearances of good red gold
''Why not make poor men feel like
millionaires?" someone suggested.
and for a jest the first near-gold
dinner service was made. To the
surprise of the firm it aroused an
Immediate demand People liked the
idea of eating off gold. and the new
metal is easy to look after, since it
is almost stainless.
The biggest demand, though, is
likely to come from South America
and other Latin countries, where
there is deep love of gold itself or
of metal that looks like it.

X-RAYS SUPERIOR
TO FINGER-PRINTS
Substitution Advocated for
Three Reasons.

Criminals of the future may have
to sumbit TO being X-rayed instead
of having their finger-prints taken,
If the new system of Identification
perfected by an American doctor is
adopted in London, Herr Pickard
says in the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The system has been submitted for
the consideration Of Scotland Yard,
and Chief Inspector Bailey, the
finger-print expert, has spent many
hours examining 1t.
1t was at his invitation that DR..
Thomas A. Poole of Washington
United States, visited London.
Doctor Poole is a nose and throat
of his new Identification system as q
result of taking many thousands OF
X-ray photographs in connection
with his work. He claims for his
system that it:
Is simpler than fnger-prints:
Dispenses with measurements as
a basis for Identification;
Indicates the presence of affec.
tons causing criminal tendencies.
Briefly" said Doctor Poole, 1.-The
system makes possible the estab.
iishment of an international bureau
for the Identification of criminals
without recourse to measurements
and at the same time provides the
authorities with evidence on which
they can work 10 cure the criminal
of his lawless tendencies.
when a person comes into the
hands of the police an X-ray photo
graph Is taken Of his face. There
you have at once record of all the
bony structure and the dozens OF
different cavities of the head. Most
important is the record of the cav.
tiles above the eyes termed the
frontal sinuses. By this means
positive Identification is assured.
"A close study of the congestion
of the sinuses and a reference to
the past history of the criminal may
readily throw light on the reason
for his criminal tendencies.
Treatment of the sinuses, today q
simple matter, would in my view
restore the mind to a normal healthy
state. And, since a normal healthy
mind is not a criminal mind, you
have then removed the prime cause
of the criminal tendencies.
THUS do you combine crime pre-
vention with your positive identified.

D. {. ASKS SUIT
Be DISMISSED

The Commissioners of the Dis
trict Of Columbia today asked
District Supreme Court to dis
miss a suit brought recently by
John r. Mahoney, seeking a
mandamus to force the prosecu-
ton of liquor cases under the
Shepard Act instead of under
the Volstead Act.
In asking that Mahoney's suit
be dismissed. the Commissioners
assert that he failed to show
facts which would entitle him to
bring the proceeding against
them, and failed to show facts
to raise any justifiable issue.
The Commissioners contend
further that it is beyond the
power Of the court to issue a de-
cree to control the general and
continuous course of official con-
duct. The Commissioners also
tell the court that they are
vested with discretionary power
in the matter of enforcement of
statutes which the court cannot
control

HOUSE MUST
APPROVE
CHANGES
Measure One of the Most Vital
Pieces of Legislation in Its
Effect on Local Crime

One of the most important
bills affecting the District
regulating sale and possession
Of firearms-was passed today
by the Senate during consider
alton of the regular calendar.
The measure has already been
approved by the House, but slight
changes in it by the Senate Dis
trict Committee must be accepted
before it can go to the President
for his signature.
Six Provisions
The bill embraces a compre-
hensive program Of such control,
with six principal features. They
are regulating the sale Of firearms
to the public; licensing Of all
dealers in firearms, prohibiting
possession of weapons for which
theer is no legitimate use, pro-
hibiting possession of pistols by
persons previously convicted, and
by imposing penalties for crime
while armed in addition to the
penalties for the crime itself.
The police department informed
the committee that firearms were
used in 686 crimes of violence in
the five-year period ending last
June.
Machine Guns Banned
Other various prescriptions i'm
posed by. the bill would be open
display by dealers of pistols or
placards advertising the sale of
pistols.
The bill also prohibits posses.
sion Of machine guns, sawed-off
shotguns, blackjacks or metal
knuckleS.
The bill establishing a board of
indeterminate sentence on parole
for the District was also passed

sons convicted of felonies and it
would carry a board of members
to serve terms of three, five and
seven years, respectively.
Parole Measure
The first section of the bill
States that the members shall
serve without compensation but
shall be paid actual and neces-
sary expenses. It does not affect
the imposition of death, but it
states that a person sentenced to
life imprisonment shall be eligible
for parole after serving fifteen
years.s
A third bill, passed by the
Senate would regulate plumbing
and gas-fitting here, increasing
the annual license fee for master
plumbers and master gas-fitters

not less than $25 and not more
than $50.

AIRPORT LEASE
PARLEY TOPIC

Problems connected with the
leasing of Washington-Hoover Air
port to the District for use as a
municipal airport were discussed
in a conference today between
Lieut.. Col. U. S. Grant, Sd, Di-
rector of Public Buildings and
Public Parks; Capt. E. N. CHS
olm, jr., Charles w. Eliot, End,
officials of the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission,
and airport officials.
If the planning commission can
be convinced as to the advisable
ity of taking over the airport,
Colonel Grant has indicated a
bill will be introduced in the
next session of Congress author
izing his office or the Depart
ment of Commerce, to secure a
long-term lease.

CHANGE
OPPOSED

Nine changes in the District
permanent highway plan were
considered at a public hearing
by the Commissioners today.
A proposal of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission to eliminate Patterson
Street Northwest, between Broad
Branch Road, and Thirty-third
Streets from the plan met with
opposition from District Surveyor
Melvin C. Hazen.
The commission asked the
change on the ground that cut
ting the street through would
bisect property already acquired
by it. In opposing the move,
Hazen submitted a map showing
the Importance of the street to
the adjoining neighborhood.
The surveyor asked the Com
missioners to eliminate Thirty
eighth Street, between Military
Road and Livingston Street North
west from the plan on the ground
that cutting the street through
would entail too much expense
and that the highway was un-
necessary.
Other changes entailed minor
alterations of the highway sys.
tenn in all sections of the city.
