II don't see how any man

would bring the tariff into bal

He signed the Smoot.Hawley

But the police were waiting

the Sixth precinct, where he was
booNed on a charge Of intoxica-

Before his arrest, police said,
Armstrong had staged a lombard

PHILADELPHIA, June q
Q.N.SO.-The Democratic women
are speaking right up in meeting
Breaking a tradition of politi
cal life since 1920 when women
got the vote and in exchange be-
came echoes of masculine philoSo
ply, the 521 women delegates
and alternates to this national
Democratic convention are giving
their opinions on the platform
third-party threats, balancing the
budget-in fact, any subject on
which they have opinions.
Encouraged by the radiant
influence" of Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, who, according to Miss
Mary w. Dewson, chairman of the
women'S division, has made good
in her job as First Lady," the
women are not being "shuShed'
by party leaders. Instead, they
are being listened to.
Do Own Thinking
For the first time within the
memory of hoary observers, the
women, one-fifth of the number
assembled, are doing one-fifth OF
the thinking and talking. Miss
DeWson said:
1--WE are only One.fifth of the
delegates so we don't pretend
we are $3.50 in power, but the
increase of power among women
in the party is a revelation of
what great changes can come
in SO short space Of time as
three years.
"Any woman who makes good
helps other women to do SO.
Mrs. RoOsevelt's life has been so
rich and full that wherever she
was she would help women
along. She was a radiant influ-
ence in New York before she
was anyOne'S wife, but just a
person.
"I'm proud women have made
good in numerous important
jobs"
She mentioned, besides Mrs.
Roosevelt's job, that Of Frances
Perkins, Mrs. Jewel Swofford,
chairman of the U. s. Compensa-
ton Board, and Miss Mary H.
Ward, commissioner of immigra-
tion in Boston.
Blast at AL Smith
Then, from her spacious quar-
ters down the hall from Jim Far
ley'S pink ROOM" which is only
one quarter the size of the
women'S division room, Miss Dew
son let forth blast against Al
Smith, the Republican platform,
the high tariff and criticisms of
the unbalanced budget. Just to

NOTIFICATION

JULY23
BY ROBERT HUMPHREYS

BY ROBERT HUMPHREYS
TOPEKA, Kan, June % Q.N.S0
The formal notification cere-
monies for the Republican presi-
Dental nominee, Governor Alfred
M. Landon, will be held on the
steps Of the Kansas State House
at dusk, Thursday night, July %,
the Governor announced today.
The colorful outdoor ceremonies
will mark the opening Of the
G. o. P. campaign.
Topeka authorities announced
simultaneously that they are max
ing plans for the greatest public
meeting in the city's history.
The nominee will be formally
notified by the committee selected
at the Cleveland convention. The
Governor, it was stated, has been
in communication with Represen-
tative Bertrand H. Smell OF New
York, permanent chairman Of the
convention and chairman Of the
notification committee, during the
last week, arranging details.
Silent on Al Smith
The Governors announcement
was made at his morning press
conference. Asked for comment
on the action of Alfred E. Smith
and four other leading Democrats
urging the Democratic National
Convention to put aside Franklin
D. Roosevelt" Governor Landon
declined to comment. However,
he later asserted:
"The line of demarCatiOn be.
tween fealty of party and loyalty
to country is something for each
citizen to determine for him
SELF"
In announcing the date for the
notification ceremonies, Governor
Landon revealed he already has
begun work on his acceptance
speech. He said he hoped to COM
pIete it during his stay in Estes
Park, Colo, where he goes WedneS-
day night for his Today vacation.
Meanwhile, it was learned au-
thoritatively that Governor Lam
don will confer with Frank o.
I,oWden, former Governor Of 1ln-
nois and authority on agriculture,
early in July on farm problems.
The tentative date for the con-
ference has been set for July 9,
three Gays after the return of Gov.
ernor Landon from his vacation
at Estes Park. LoWden will
journey here from Illinois to see
the nominee.
LOwden Waits
LoWden, it is known, was in
close touch with Landon leaders
throughout the pre-convention
campaign.
Although himself prominently
mentioned as q G.. o. P. presiden
tial possibility, Lowden, at one
stage in the proceedings-late in
March-was willing to formally
announce his support for the
Kansas governor.
Lowden refrained, after con.
ference with Landon aides, be-
cause of the complications it
might entail in his native State Of
Illinois where Col. Frank Knox
and Senator William E. Borah had
entered the preferential primary
while Governor Landon had not
permitted his name to be filed.
Views in Harmony
Lowden and Governor Landon,
1t was authoritatively stated, have
long held similar views on agri-
cultural problems. In January, in
his first major address as a G. O.
P. presidential possibility, Cover.
nor Landon, delivering a Kansas
Day speech here, deleted from his
text an outline Of his position on
farm problems out of Difference to
Lowden, who few days before
had made public views on agri-
culture which were similar.
