Carving out what Senator Wat

Indiana delegation broke out with
a banner, win With Landon and

Missouri had caucussed and was
reported ready to go for the Chi

Iowa polled and decided at first
to split it's vote between Vanden-

that Vandenberg had asked Smell
not to permit his name to go be-

Kentucky polled and approved

Nice'S qualifications which Boyd
mentioned was that he defeated
the late Governor Albert C

the unbeatable four-term governor
Of Maryland.
Undisturbed by the "razz,"
Boyd continued to talk. He
paused and drank a glass Of

Chairman Smell gesticulated to
the delegates in an effort to

that Vandenberg's refusal Of the
place was to be accepted as final.
Little attention was paid to the
nominating speeches. Governor
Bridges could hardly talk against
the din in nominating Knox and
Senator Barbour had no better
luck. The floor was scene OF
confusion as the State delegations
counted noses in their own Sec
tions and expressed their prefer
enceS.
In the main center aisle Ham
ilton was comforting with various
State leaders.
California, Colorado, Connecti-
cut and Delaware passed. When
Florida was called there came to
the platform E. E. Galloway OF
Lakeland, an alternate, who pro-
posed the name of J. Leonard
Replogle, retired steel manufac-
turer, who now makes his home
in Florida and is the "angel' OF
the party in the State.
But Galloway proposed the
name and Immediately withdrew
tin favor of Colonel Knox.
Down the alphabetical list ran
the roll call until Illinois was
reached. Ed Hayes, one of the
Knox managers, came to the plat
form and whispered to Smell that
Illinois passed.
Hamiltons' conference in the
center aisle broke up.
Delegates FESTIVE
Irritability-not to be unex-
pected on the fourth day-of a
national convention was all over
the floor.
Pennsylvania had an informal
caucus on the floor, with the en-
tire delegation not present, and
voted, very informally, to give
Colonel Knox IS votes on the first
ballot-subject to change without
notice. Later they made it unani-
nous.
Indiana appeared to want Knox.
Said George A. Ball, national
committeeman from the Hoosier
State:
81 don't care whether Colonel
Knox has left Cleveland or not.
We ought to nominate him."
Ex-senator George H. Moses, OF
New Hampshire, one Of the Knox
managers, strolled by the press
stand, amid the milling delegates.
'WhO is it, SENATOR" asked
an International News Service
reporter.
He replied:
"LOrd, 1 don't know. Yester-
day it was Knox, this morning
it was Vandenberg, and now 1
don't know who it isl"
In the Southern delegationC,
which do not cut much ice in this
convention, there appeared to be
a definite Knox movement.
Georgia wanted Knox.
An informal caucus of the Ala
bama delegation showed seven for
Vandenberg and six for Knox. In

Ex-Governor Henry J. Allen, OF
Kansas, one of the Landon lead

also dropped temporarily-but the
mills are well booked with orders
at last report. And corporate net
profits are rising in every field, a
! fact which is naturally reflected in
better dividend payments.
There are two factors, however,
outside the production field, which
are highly disturbing. One is
wages, which are tending upward,
but very slowly, and are not keep
ing pace with production. The
other is that worst DOGGY of all,
unemployment. 1t is generally
believed that the unemployed rolls
are declining, bet at conserva-
tive estimate, some eight million
men are still out of work.
Another interesting aspect of
the business situation is covered
in late issue of the scholarly An
nalist, in a table comparing con-
sumner expenditures in the six
months ended in June, 1896, with
the same period in 1885. This
table shows that more of the con-
sumer's dollar is being expended
for durable goods and less for
perishable 'articles-a trend that
is highly important, in that the
durable goods industries took the
worst lacing during depression
and are the biggest element in the
nations industrial set-up. Thus,
where in the 1886 period consum-
ers spent 4.6 per cent more for
food than in the 1885 period, they
spent 1928 per cent more for cars.
Where they spent $50 per cent
more in restaurants, they spent
24.8 per cent more for lumber,
building and hardware. Where
they spent 90 per cent more on
general merchandise, they spent
1913 per cent more on furniture
and other household equipment.
Consumer expenditures for the
1886 period marked a 12.1 per
cent increase over the 1885 Pc
riodAtotaling $17,47O.00O,O00 as
against SIS, 580,0o0,00O.

JEWISH new
YEAR STARTS
ON SEPT. 10
REGULAR SERVICES IN CON-
NECTION WITH EVENT TO
BE HELD AT LOCAL SYNA-
GOCUE

On the evening of Wednesday,
September 16, synagogues and
temples all over the world will be
filled with worshippers to herald
the approach of the Jewish New
Year, or Rosh Hashanan. To cele-
brate this solemn holiday special
services will be held for one day
in Reform Temples and in Ortho-
dox Synagogues for two days.
Regular services in connection
with this event will be held at the
local synagogue by Rabbi Joseph
Male.
In olden days this festival mark
ed the beginning of the agricul-
tural and economic year in Pales-
tine. With the destruction of the
temple in Jerusalem and the dis
persion of the people, new GUS
toms were developed in regard to
worship. Instead of sacrifices Of
fered on the altar the holiday has
come to mean a time of prayer and
meditation, of self-scrutiny, and
of penitence. This Interpretation
of the holiday comes from the rab-
binical tradition that the New
Year commentaries the beginning
of creation. Based upon scrip
tural passages, it has become the
judgment day of the Jewish year
the day upon which all people of
the world pass in review before
their Creator for judgment.
The prayers of the day are fill
ed with the message of justice.
The sound of the Shofar calls for
remembrance of Gods laws and
ones obligations to his fellow
men.
Rosh Hashanah is a day on
which family ties are strengthen
ed and friendships are renewed.
Encompassing the ideas of divine
justice and human responsibility
the day begins "The Ten Days of
Penitsnce" which eliminate in
Yom Kippur or the Day of Atone
ment. During this period Jews
are given the opportunity to re-
fleet on the past year and to re-
pent the wrongs done. If the re-
pentance is sincere, forgiveness is
attained on YOm Kippur, the SOL
emn festival on the day of Atone
ment which closes the penitential
season.

Doctor Offers Formula
To Produce Deep Sleep
(By Associated Press)

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Sept
10.-Dr. E. Dunbar Newell says
"three hours sleep with all five
senses is better than seven hours
sleep with only three senses"
Sleep, he says, is in five inten-
sities-prOducing, in order named,
Obliviousness to sight, smell, taste
sound and touch.
To one who would sleep well,
he advises:
"Take some very light nourish-
ment and rest, without reading or
writing and, perhaps, smoking a
cigar, before retiring; have bed
room that is withdrawn from
noises; after retiring Danish wor-
ries and think of nothing"
