CHICAGO. July 10 (SpeciaD -
A snow goose was thrown out OF
the convention yesterday after
trying to prove that he was q
delegate from Canada. He had a
pretty bitter story to tell. He be-
lieves that there is a diabolical
plan by outside" interests Che

diabolical plan to subtly sway
both parties and thus gain con-
troll Of the realm.
"Have you noticed" asked the
Goose. "have you taken mark that
the cost of newsprint has gone

It is the opinion of the Snow
Goose that any editor will think
twice about running lot of stuff
about candidate with q long
name. Short-named candidates
will get all the mention and so
win be elected. The goose thinks
that. as time goes on, the trend
lin newspapers will be to print all
things in a series Of grunts or
|other suitable monosyllables.
She says look at the way the
magazines have gone. First short
news magazines were the rage ;.
then in newer magazines (smaller
ones) the news and the pictures

CHICAGO. July 10.-Seven
women close to Senator Taft
through marriage or politics held
% press conference for women
correspondents yesterday and ex-
tolled his virtues. The candidates.
ears must have really burned.
Tall. good-looking 35-year-old
daughter-in-law, Mrs. Robert Taft
the former Blanca Noel of New
York, said, Hes just the most
wonderful man I've ever known
He has a divine sense of humol
and he's cozy."
Blond, pretty 27-year-old Mrs
Lloyd Taft. who was Virginia
Stone Of st. Joseph, Mich, de-
cried reports that her father-in.
law is short tempered.
"Once ! lost his car keys" she
said very sweetly. "and he was
in q terrible hurry and jumped
into the car and couldn't find
them. but he never said anything. .
Son Not Discouraged.
It's Virginia's husband, Lloyd
who was named as the most
likely presidential material in the
next generation of the Taft fam
lily. Asked how he felt about his
fathers discouraging news during
the past "a hours, Virginia re-
piled that he recognized the set
back but it hadn't got him down,
All seven of the women who
took part in the afternoon con-
ference on the third floor of the
Conrad Hilton Hotel pointed to
the Senator's human side.
Mrs. David ingalls,, wife of the
chairman of the Taft for Presi-
dent Committee: Mrs. Ben TAFT,
wife Of the treasurer; Mrs. Pres
ton Davie, assistant treasurer, and
Mrs. John Hollister, whose hus-
band is Senator Taft's former law
partner, recalled examples OF the
Senator's thoughtfulness.
One pointed to the time he was
talking to a friend and discovered
she was minus q cook for the
week end and he procured one
for her. Another remembered
how he had. called on q sick friend
in the hospital. another how he
had driven his future daughter
in-law to the airport himself on
q busy day, and so fourth.
Criticisms of Mr.. Taft make
them boiling mad. but then 81
am mad all the time" smiled
Blanca. "The press completely
misrepresent him. but the press
is mostly for Eisenhower any
way" she said with a shrug.

Mccarthy yAsksG.0.P P.
To Battle Against
DisIoyaIiy, Treason
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO. July 10.-Senator
= Mccarthy. Republican, of Wiscon-
sin yesterday urged delegates to
the G. o. P. Convention to stage
a rough, tough fight against dis
loyalty and treason"
There is a common sense
limit to gentleness and delicacy," /"
he said. THAT limit is where dis
loyalty and treason begin, where
organized deceit and godlessness
begin.
I'VE cannot fight Communists
or communism in the Acheson-
baltimore fashion of hitting them
with a perfumed silk handker-
chief at the front door while they
batter our friends with brass
knuckles and blackjacks at the
back door,"
The controversial Wisconsin
Senator, long known for his Com
munism-in-G Government charges,
got one of the conventions great
est ovations so far. It came when
he stepped forward and the band
played "On, Wisconsin" and the
Marine hymn. He is a Marine
veteran.
Attacks Conduct of War.
For the most part. Senator Nc
Carthy was grim. He said "some
Of my good friends have accused
me of being too rough" in his
methods of fighting those he calls
Communists.
But, he declared:
"Sugared phrases are fine for
Washington teas. But this is not
a tea party"
He drew the loudest applause
when he attacked the administra-
tion's conduct of the Korean war,
urged the Republicans to clean
house in November. and shouted:
II promise you we won't be in
any ware which We are afraid
to win"
Charges Outright Treason.
Senator Mccarthy charged that
the Democrats have built up Rus
sia and weakened the strength of
the United States through a COM
bination of outright treason and
"abysmal stupidity"
He called on loyal Democrats"
to forsake the present leaders of
their party-"to scrub and flush
and wash clean this Government
by voting the Republican ticket
this fall"
In the middle of the speech, a
group of men carrying signs in
the form of red herrings, lettered
with the names of Secretary of
State Acheson, Owen j. baltimore
and Alger Hiss. paraded in front
OF the speakers podium.
Senator McCarty got another
round of cheers by calling Gen.
Macarthur lone of the greatest
Americans ever born" Gen. Mac
Arthur, who is supporting Senator
Taft over Gen. Eisenhower, made
the conventions keynote speech
Monday night.

Executive Board
Of Harris P.T.A
Plans activities

The Executive Board of Harris
School Parent Teachers Associa-
ton met Tuesday evening at 1880
in the school library. President
Glenwood Sweeting was in charge
of the meeting.
Minutes of the last regular meet
ing and of a special meeting were
read and approved. Publications
Chairman, Mrs. Lorene Campbell,
and membership chairman, Mrs.
Annie Ulchar, appealed to the
board members for ideas to spark
tagging interest in subscribing to
PTA publications and in joining
PTA for this year.
The Board agree to offer cash
award to each room having 100 per
cent enrolment of parents in the
organization. Also movie win be
shown to all students whose parents
have joined PTA. II was felt that
this should prove an incentive to
students to urge their parents to
become members. The Blue Rib
bon Awards given Harris School
last year are the goal again this
year. Deadline for the drive is
November /.
A tentative budget for present
school year was discussed and a.
dopted. The PTA will sponsor the
Brownie Scout Troop No. 8 again
this year, and any parent interest
ed in getting Cub Scout Troop
started was asked to contact Mr..
Sweeting.
Because he feels a need for clos
er relationships between the teach
ers, children and parents, Mr..
Sweeting proposed to have PTA en-
tertain in successive order all
grades, teachers and parents at
monthly parties. The four First
Grade will be entertained in No
Vember.
The group was urged to keep n
live interest in voting "yes" for
Amendment One which Is to be pre-
sented to the public for vote in
the November election. This is the
amendment which would set a.
side part of the auto license tag
money for the next 80 years to be
used for school building purposes.
If it is passed, ii will permit the
selling Of bonds to build many new
schools and schoolrooms imme-
diately instead of a few at a time.
Room representative chairman,
Mrs. Byrnina Thompson, reported
on the progress of the Halloween
Festival which is to be held Friday
October "a, at 4p. m. on the school
grounds. All representatives are
asked to call Mrs. Thompson to
learn which committee they are to
serve on. Snowballs, cake and can
dy, witch's pot, cold drinks, bal
looms and pop corn are some OF the
suggested committees.
Attending the meeting were Prin.
