PHILADELPHIA. June 26.-No
glamour girl is having more fun at
the Republican Convention than the
dowager queen of the party, Mrs.
Benjamin Harrison, widow OF the
23rd President.
On her first day here-she came
alone from New York-she took her
82-year-young enthusiasm around to
a lunch, five candidates headquar-
ters. dinner and the long night
session.
When she finished visiting the
various headquarters, her lively eyes
sparkled.
They are all fine candidates, s.
she said. I've known four genera
tons of Tafts. I knew the Presi-
dents father when he was at Yale. =
Mrs. Harrison is known to three
generations of Republicans which
have come up since her time in the
White House. She is the niece of
Mr.. Harrison's first wife and lived
in the White House for two years
when her aunt was First Lady. After
the latter's death, she married Mr.
Harrison.
She is an erect little figure in tai
lored black chiffon, a black straw
hat. a dog-collar of beads. and a
sable scarf. Her hair is barely turn

Mr. Hoover predicted. the world will
face the greatest famine in all his
tory. If the war is short" the
famine will be short he said. But
he insisted there would be a famine
Private charity. he said. would be
entirely unable to meet the situation
the American Government would
have to step in, as it did after the
last war
Declaring that the countrys need
is national solidarity, Mr. Hoover
called attention to the fact that the
American people is composed of all
races. They are all loyal Ameri-
cans he said, adding that care
should be taken not to stir up
hatreds among them.
Mr.. Hoover said he did not be-
lieve that universal military training
was needed yet" He advocated
the development of skilled labor
through the educational system of
the country-the public schools par
ticularly. He said he preferred
that to placing the youth of America
in some kind of semi-military
training to produce such laborers.
He called attention to the fact that
he himself had been largely re-
sponsible for the development of the
vocational education system now
aided by the Federal Government.
Mr.. Hoover advocated a return to
the gold standard and putting the
sig, ,0O0, 100000 of gold owned by this
country again into circulation.
There are lot of people who
would like to handle a gold piece
again" he said There should be a
free gold market"
Mr.. Hoover declined to amplify
his statement in his speech last
night that the election should be
an election, mot an auction" While
it seemed to be clearly directed
against the tactics of the New Deal
administration in home quarters,
it was interpreted also as a criti-
cism of the Willkie campaign for
the presidential nomination.

tory for the non-intervention forces
in the convention.
Seek to Avoid Floor Fight.
The only essential concession to
those favoring aid to the democ-
racies suffering from aggression was
the retention of an expression of
sympathy for oppressed peoples and
the right of such peoples to con-
tinue to obtain what they need in
this country. within legal limits.
The Resolutions Committee thus
thought it paved the way for adop-
ton of the foreign policy plank
without fight on the floor of the
convention by giving it a more pro-
nounced non-intervention tone. The
subcommittee. in putting on the
finishing touches. strengthened even
this language, but after Mr.. Peppers
action it had to be taken out again
Major planks on domestic issues
are understood to follow these lines:
Labor-A declaration of the work
ers' right to collective bargaining.
with amendments to the National
Labor Relations Act to make it fair
to all groups of employees and to
employers: also an Endorsement OF
restricted immigration.
Observation-Disclosures of the
soil conservation program, but doing
away with regimentation in control
of production. 1t is expected to
recommend also a plan for restoring
parity price levels for the farmer.
Budget Balancing Goal.
Government f1nances-A return to
a balanced budget as soon as prac-
ticable and an Endorsement of the
proposal of Senator Townsend of
Delaware TO stop the purchase of
foreign silver.
The social security plank en-
countered some difficulty in the COM
mitee yesterday, and Senator Lodge
OF Massachusetts, said ne Was de-
batting whether to file a minority
report on that subject, after the
committee turned down his proposal
for Endorsement of comprehensive
old-age pension system, organized
on a pay-as-you-go basis, supported
by fair and widely distributed tax.
At present old-age pensions are
controlled by different laws in each
State supplemented by Federal aid.
If the question should oe raised in
convention, it might preciSitate con-
troversy over the Townsend end
related pension plans.
Summary Authorized.
Although the complete platform
is likely to run between 1000 and
5000 words, the Resolutions Com
mittee assigned Senator Lodge to
draw up an accompanying post
card summary.

Claims put out by some of the

Nominations Today.
Still Embossed and with bitter
fighting in near prospect, the dele
gates to the convention today start
on the serious business of the party
conclave-the final writing of the
national platform and the nomina-
ton of a presidential candidate.
A leader, a boss. if you will, might
give the convention sense of Girec-
ton of policies and candidates that
has not yet been manifest. And
some. perhaps many. of the dele
gates would welcome leadership.
The convention adjourned last
night until l pm, Eastern standard
time today, after listening to an ad-
dress by the only living former PreSi-
dent of the United States. The recep-
ton accorded Herbert Hoover aud the
interest and applause which his
speech aroused in the delegates was
manifest. But he did rot sweep
the convention off its feet 1t might
turn to him if deadlock should
develop, but there is no renSun to
believe that Mr. Hoover emerged last
night as the candidate to whom
the delegates would rush when the
balloting begins.
Uses HumOr and Hammer.
A heavy-set man. tall withal, gray
of head but ruddy of complexion. an
earnest and sincere man Of manifest
ability, Mr.. Hoover time and again
last night drew applause and
laughter from the convention by the
simple use of ridicule of the New
Deal administration. At other times
he hit sledge hammer blows

cheering delegates and alternates.
For five minutes the demonstration
continued, as Mr.. Hoover stood
smiling beside the stubby Joe Mar
tin of Massachusetts,, Republican
leader of the House and permanent
chairman of the convention.
Mr.. Hoover's discussion of the
foreign policies, of national defense,
and of peace and war were striking
parts of his address. He has been
characterized as the man most con-
versant with foreign affairs and
most able to deal with them in the
Republican party. Indeed, it is be-
cause of his experience abroad and
in the White House during his ad-
ministration that Mr.. Hoover's
name has been brought prominently
to the fore in competition with the
presidential nomination.
