GARNER, RENAMED,
TAKES USUAL NAP.
"Just Another Day" for Vice
President-Takes a
Walk, Too.
Pr the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA. June q. - John
Nance Garner. lolling in a comfort
able chair in his hotel. listened by ra-
dio to the booming "ayes" by which
the Democratic convention unani-
mously renominated him today for
the vice presidency. then pulled off
his coat and took a nap.
Even when the Senate over which
he presides. is in session, Garner
has his daily nap. Still in his self
described role of the man who does
the work while President Roosevelt
does the talking, the ush-broWed
Texan had nothing TO say of pol
itics nor of his denomination.
To him it was just another day.
despite that the Democrats once more
had chosen him for the second high
est honor they could offer. He did
not 60 to the convention hall, be-
cause his only public appearance was
to be at the gala ceremonies at which
President Roosevelt and he will be
notified formally tonight of their re-
nomination.
To Meet Roosevelt.
Garner arranged to meet his chief
at the train and then go directly
the convention week.
He had risen early as uSual-a bit
later than he does in Washington,
because nocturnal noises incident to
the big convention kept him awake
to have breakfast served by two
fidgety, giggling mattresses who left
little doubt that they never before
had seen such a national dignitary.
They we're distressed because he in
sisted on putting the exact amount
of sugar and cream in his coffee by
himself.
Then for 10 blocks he took walk
to sort of settle a huge lamb chop,
fried potatoes and cantaloupe. A
bulky policeman, with a cauliflower
ear and an Australian accent, kept
pace with him. relating proudly how
he had shaken hands with Garner four
years ago when the Vice President
passed through town.
Garner Eyes Picture.
The officer, Thomas Clifford, pulled
out a picture showing two cups he
had won as middleweight boxer in
England and Australia. Garner stop
ped in the middle Of the sidewalk,
took out his glasses and gave the
photo proper inspection.
A smile wrinkling his ruddy face,
Garner spoke cheerfully to nearly
every one he encountered on his brief
stroll
Back at his hotel, he chatted with
two Texas friends who convinced a
Secret Service man and another po-
liceman that they should be admit
ted, looked over some mail and news
papers, then decided to read his short
acceptance speech.
BY that time he was on No. of

in his mouth almost constantly. He
says he smokes far too many, IS to

The showers cooled South Dakota

PHILADELPHIA, June 27.-"The
Democratic party has been making
history" with two most important
objectives, Senator Hattie w. Caraway
told the women of the South at
work conference today:
Il. For the first time a real con-
certed effort has been made to pre-
serve to the underprivileged the right
to work for adequate wages.
80 To try to strike balance be-
tween the producer class and the in
dustrial class"
She explained that neither can eX-
ist without the other. nor can people
find employment when the producer
class finds cost of production prohib-
itive.
The Democratic party has recog-
nized also the potentialities of the
women of the country" she enpha-
sized.
Pioneered in Many Ways.
This administration has pioneered
in many ways. not the least of which
has been in placing women in high
positions" said Senator Caraway.
Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen is the first
woman to be sent as Minister to q
foreign country.
Miss Perkins, Secretary Of Labor,

cabinet members, advising the Presi-
dent on matters of state.
Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross. who is
making such an able director Of the
mint.
In the new Social Security Board
a woman, Miss Jane Hoey, has been
made director of the Board of Public
Assistance.
While Mr.. Wilson was President he
set a precedent by appointing Mrs
Helen H. Gardner as a civil service
commissioner Mrs. Lucille McMillin
of Tennessee serves on that commits
sion now.
In the Treasury Department. Mrs.
Marion Glass Banister of Virginia,
worthy sister of Senator Glass. one
time Secretary of the Treasury. is an
able assistant, as is Miss Josephine
Roche of Colorado.
Women Aid in Relief.
"In all the relief work in the States
women have had appointments as
assistant directors.
Each State has a national Demo-
cratic committeewoman and the Ma
tional Democratic Committee has a
womans division under the very eff
cient direction of Mrs James H. Wolfe.
six women are representing dis
tricts in four different States in the
House of Representatives Of the Ma
tional Congress. Mrs. Norton. New
Jersey; Mrs. Jenckes, Indiana; Mrs.
Greenway, Arizona. and Mrs. ODay,
New York, are Democrats. Mrs. Kahn,
California, and Mrs. Rogers OF Massa-
chusetts are Republicans. They have
been reelected many times, which is
proof positive that they have loyalty,
courage and brains.
What most wish to see Is men and
women working together on an intel
lectual plane with mutual respect, nu-
tual interests, safeguarding the insti-
tutions of our Government, our coun-
try, and protecting our aged. our
youth, and to preserve agriculture and

tlement, said in part:
The reports of the inspectors of
the Post Office Department and other
available data relating to this and
other mail contracts has been fully
examined. There can be no reasonable
doubt that the arrangements, under
standings and agreements, out of which
the route certificate subsequently grew,
were highly irregular, and interfered
with the freedom of competition con-
templated by the statutes.
These circumstances and Irregular
tiles were such as to irnpel you to
cancel the route certificates as a ne
cessary preparatory step to the put
ting of the airmail system of the
country upon a more wholesome basis,
and one that would work both for the
better development of air transporta-
ton and the more economical hand
ling of the mails by such means While
the course pursued by you in this
respect was amply warranted, it is
our opinion that the Irregularities
referred to are not such as to JUS
tify or require criminal prosecution
Such irregularities would, however,
be pertinent and vital factors in the
event of further litigation.
Sees Compromise Appropriate.
1.-THE controversy is, therefore, one
which, in the exercise of sound dis
cretion, may appropriately be COM
promised. ."
Farley's sudden and broad scale
cancellation of airmail contracts early
in 1884 followed Senatorial investi-
cation of contracts made under the
previous administration. The Army
took over the job of flying the mail
until private contractors were re-
turned to the task.

has been studying the legal aspects Of
the contracts and their cancellation
for more than a year, as special as
