in his hand and to promise "a
crusading, aggressive, fighting cam
paign to bring unity to America"
Confetti sifted down from air
conditioning vents. 1t clung to his
smiling, perspiring face; was tangled
into the wavy locks of his hair, lay
in heaps on the platform.
But MI. Willkie paid no attention
as he made a short speech.
Il understand that in America
we all have common purpose at
this time that this way of life shall
not pass from this EARTH" he said.
For the rehabilitation of Ameri-
can economy, for the building of an
adequate defense so that no dictator,
however strong, may seek to strike;
for the unity of our people; for call
ing again America to its great ira
dition of progress. I pledge myself
to you and ask each of you to join
with me in this great crusade"
Besieged at Hotel.
Through the evening he was be-
sieged at his hotel by delegates
seeking a word with the nominee,
by leaders come to discuss campaign
plans, by persons hoping to catch a
glimpse of the man who had per-
formed a political miracle and by
quick rub of the lamp been trans
formed from big business man
into a presidential nominee.
His vice presidential running mate
was in Washington. From there,
Senator McNary had given consent
like a good soldier" to make the
race, though he said he much pre-
ferred to be member of the Senate
than to have to spank it to order
with gavel.
Once Senator McNary's consent
had been gained, the nomination
was achieved quickly in one ballot.
Representative Dewey Short of Mis-
souri, got complimentary vote, but
Mr. Short himself came to the plat
form to thank the delegates, with
drew his name with an explosion OF
oratory and moved that the McNary
nomination be made unanimous. 1t
was.
Then few formalities we're COM
pleted before the 1910 convention
was trundled into the history books.
Each State presented the names Of
the man and woman it had selected
n q
committee. The convention en-
powered the committee to act with
full authority for the party until its
1914 convention. A resolution
thanked Representative Joseph w
Martin of Massachusetts, for his
work as permanent chairman.
Convention Ended.
Mr.. Willkie, who a few minutes
before had been standing on the
platform with Mrs. Willkie. left the
hall. Chairman John Hamilton
stepped forward to move sine die
adjournment.
The motion carried with spatter
of "ayes." Delegates already were
turning away. The beat of feet
against the concrete runways be-
came a steady, continuing sound.
State standards, tipped with ete-
phants holding American flags in
trumpeting trunks, were overturned.
Workmen moved in to clear up the
litter of badges, torn paper, confetti
and balloons.
Two hours later taxicabs without
passengers could be found in front
of the hall. The 1910 convention
was over.
