ALASKA PLANK IS p PRESENTED
 FOR ADOPTION
Extension of Self-Govern- ment Is Urged-Lib-
 eral Policy Asked

CHICAGO, Ill, June 14.-The Alaska plank in the Republican platform has been presented by the Alaska delegates. It commits the Parry to extension of self government in Alaska, more liberal policy in development of Territor- ial natural resources and boosting the proposed International High way connecting Alaska with the United States.
 Mark Reed, of Shelton, Wash. National Committeeman from that state, urged adoption of the AL aska plank.
 The Washington State delega- tion, in a pre-convention caucus pledged itself to work for a Pro- hibition referendum plank, by a vote of 15 to 4.
 The Washington delegation also supported the stand for tariff plank broad enough to include lum- Der, shingles and wood pulp.

DEMOCRATSBEST
 PAYING GUESTS AT CONVENTIONS
That's Because They Ling CT Longer Trying
 to Nominate

CHICAGO, June 14.-If the law of averages works out, the Repub- lican National Convention will be over by the night of June IT, and the Democatic National Convention will adjourn about noon July 2.
 In the last 52 years the Demo- crats have averaged 5 6-13 days in session, and the Republicans 4 3-13.
 Speculation over the duration of the big meeting is rife in Chicago just now as hotel owners, restau- rants and tradesmen anticipate eag- erly the coming rush of conven- tion business. What a deadlock might mean to them can be seen in the estimate that each conven- ton day will bring in a half mill lion dollars.
 Both tradition and present cir cumstances point to brief gath ering of Republicans. Their con- vention started today with the re- nomination of President Hoover a foregone conclusion. Even with a full day devoted to debate over a Prohibition ulank, the meeting is not expected to last more than four days. Tickets have been print ed for only four days, but the fourth day ticket entities the hold CT to any and all future sessions.

WOMEN READY

 COP. SESSION
Have Their Own Concep. ton of How Things
 Should Be Done

CHICAGO, H., June 14.-Over 400 women, 98 of whom cast their vote on the destiny shaping Pro- hibition plank, are at the opening of the Republican National Con- vention.
 Some are delegates, with full voting powers.
 Others are alternateS and still others are spectators, some of whom have more party influence than many on the floor of the conven- ton, among them, Mrs. Dolly Cur ts Gam and Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, both politically minded and both with brothers mentioned as Vice-Presidential possibilities.
 Women have been given an un- usual share of attention and there is even an outside chance for fem inists upsetting the well-laid plans, such as Mary Schuyler Butler, who is prepared to give blow for blow on the floor, if necessary, on the question of Prohibition She has announced in the Resolutions Com mittee that she will stop short of nothing but repeal proposal. She is a full-fledged delegate and the daughter of Nicholas Murray Butler, militant repealist.

C.. 0. P. Looks to Dickinson
 In Enlisting Farm Support

CHICAGO, H., June 14-In turn ing to Senator Lester J. Dickin- son of Iowa to sound the keynote address at the National Conven- ton today, the Republicans chose man who pre-eminently is a campaigner for agriculture.
 G. O. P. leaders realize that it is vital to the success of the party in the coming election that they win favor in the farm and wheat belt states. And they think Sena- tor Dickinson is the man to bring that about.
 Worked For Farmers
 During his six terms as mem Der of the House and thus far in his first term as Senator, Dick inson has built up a reputation as a powerful orator for the far mer's cause.
 He spent two summers on a Chautauqua circuit as a farm relief speaker AS a Representative he rose to be chairman of the Sub committee of the Appropriations Committee, which handles all fed eral funds for agriculture.
 He has no idea how many bills pertaining to agriculture he has introduced and sponsored since coming to Congress back in 1919.

HOBO LEADER
 GIVES WARNING

CINCINNATI, June 14.-Jeff Da- wis, King of Hoboes." has sent word to '.jungles" and tanks throughout the nation for hoboes to stay out of Washington and give World War vetrans free rein in seeking payment on their bonus certificates.
 His instructions, Davis said, fol- lowed word from Washington that Dan Brien, calling himself a hobo had issued a call for the wander CTS to gather in Washington and demand good food and clean beds"
 "The hoboes are contented, the hohoes are satisfied" Davis protested. We believe the soldiers should get their bonus. We don't want to see the soldiers become hoboes, too, but we don't want to see anybody else putting in"
 Davis is president of the 1tiner- ant Workers Union, Hoboes ol America, organized twenty foui years ago. Fifty years old, he has been a hobo for thirty-eight years.

ter being elected to the Senate was to direct campaign of "ec- onomic instruction" in the farm states, during which he clashed with one of the ablest orators in the Democratic party-Pat Harri- son of Mississippi-in a series of public debates on the Hawley- Smoot tariff bill and it's effect on the farmer.
 No Soil About Him
 But there's little doubt about Dickinson's appearance suggesting the soil. His broad shoulders show off a morning coat to as good ad- vantage as they do the light gray sack suits he usually wears.
 His white hair is combed straight back, and his smile is quick.
 He will play bridge or cribbage with anyone who likes the games and talks enthusiastically about the distant stations he gets on his radio set.
 But what he seems to like most to do for recreation is to delve into Dickinson genealogy. He has spent hours tracing the family tree" in record supplied him by the Library of Congress.
 He has rare humor, likes to hear a good story, will tell one himself sometimes.

PROPOSAL IS WET,
 IS REPORT GIVEN
All State Delegations Ex- press Opinion Regard
 ing Dry Laws

CHICAGO, H., June 14.-Repub- lican of high command, after hours of deliberation yesterday and into the early hours this morning, well comed the arrival of the opening day of the National Convention.
 A tentative agreement on the Prohibition plank for the Repub- lican platform is said to have been reached but whether it meets with President Hoover's approval re- mained to be ascertained.
 More than at any previous time, Hoovers' advisers are now hopeful the agreement will end the dispute. The text of the agreement is with held.
 Widespread sentiment aims Prohibition was given by State after State last night, some by caucus and others by informal ex- pressions.
 None of the State delegations voted outright for endorsement of the dry laws as they stand.
 The presumption is the wet plank will be acceptable to Hoover as several of his own Cabinet mem bers were in the all-night confer ence which drafted it.
 LOOK FOR AGREEMENT
