TIIE MOItXIXG OREGONIAX, FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1920. M ADDO IS STOPPED, DECLARE OPPONENTS More Than Third of Dele gates Reported Signed. DEFEAT IS BIG AIM NOMINATIONS ALL IN AND DEMOCRATS NOW READY TO BEGIN WITH BALLOTING Former Portland Actress, Mrs, Julia Brown. Makes Hit With Convention When, Dressed Like a Debutante, She Seconds the Nomination of John W. Davis of West Virginia. , Combination Then Plans to Nom inate Someone Else, Just Whom Is Not-Yet Known. (Continued -Front First Page Cox and Palmer. It will be their only opportunity. Tho rostc of availablcs now has In a prominent place Homer Cura mings, whose fine keynote speech and attractive personality have made a great impression. The other dark horse most often mentioned iR John W. Davis. But the vast majority of delegates never saw Davis. They have someone's mere word for it that he exists. Kvery one of the 1092 dele Rates and their alternates have seen and heard Cummlngs and they like him. He was not seriously thought of for president a week ago outside of Connecticut. He is much in the minds of very many now as a pos sible alternative. Vice-President Marshall, too. is mentioned, but only that. It is not certain that India.ia is in earnest about him. It is certain that he has looked upon his candidacy lightly, and his view has necessarily reflected lttielf upon the convention. Mr. Mar shall is likely to prove the victim of his sense of humor. The people may juke about tha vice-presidency or even the presidency, hut they resent flip pancy about it in the incumbent. riiHfOrm 1o Be All Wilson. It is not known by me at this writ ing what will be the final form of the llatform when it comes from the resolutions committee. Notwithstand ing the alteration of the league plank, it will still be a Wilson platform. It ii to bo noted that the committee dis tinctly refused to accept the proposals of Bryan or Senator Walsh, in so far us they were knoivn to be Intended as substitutes for the Wilson plan. But the comniitteo did accept a modifica tion which it probably assumed should rot bo objectionable to the president. If later he makes' it known that it is objectionable, there will be great trouble. Jf any master mind has rclvcd an amicable solution to the Irish and prohibition controversies, respectively, it is not now known out side the committee room. So there will probably be debate on these vital subjects in the convention during the course of the discussion, and its ter mination may well have a decisive effect on the nominee in ways not now clear. The nomination of Bryan, for example, would logically attend his success over Wilson in his platform fights. But !f It be assumed that the president will dictate the platform in Its final form, the presidential con test will bo brought out in lines now defined. Mrnatlon Is Summed V, Summed up, the presidential situa tion is about as follows: McAdoo at the start will have nearly the same number of voles as Palmer or Cox. He is expected to gain rapidly for several ballots, ralratr, it is thought, will go down rapidly and Cox sooner or later. The popular impulse here is for Mc Adoo and he is known to be the sec ond choice or nany delegates. If he can reach a majority before there is any genuine consolidation on any one candidate against Urn it is believed that his inarch toward two-thirds will not be difficult. If there is such a consolidation there is likely to be a different story. The strength of McAdoo lies in a generally favorable convention psy chology, in the outspoken support of a large group cf delegates, in the ulti mate support of others, and in the weakness j.nd division of the opposi tion. The power of the opposition to McAdoo 1I2S in the two-thirds rule, in tha hesitancy of many as to a son-in-law for a candidate, and in the real desire of small groups to nominate their favorite rna. BERRY PICKERS NEEDED Special Opportunity Offered for Club of About Ten Girls. About 50 berry pickers are needed and can be placed by applying to Miss -iiarion uilhcrt, director of the wom en's division of the municipal em ployment bureau. 202 Beck buildine- A special opportunity exists for a club or about ten girls and a chaperon. During the past month 297 women have been given employment through the municipal employment office. About 100 of this number were berry pickers. There were 3474 men sent to places er employment by the men's division, located in the Flatiron building Sixth- and Ankeny strets. Calls for farm hands were filled by the bureau through tha dispatch of 106 men to the country. - More than 500 men were referred to railroad work. UDITOR1UM. SAN FRANCISCO. July 1. The galleries filled early in expectation of a showy fight on the platform issue. The dele gates came more slowly and at 11 A. M., the hour set for resuming the session, the floor and delegate spaces as usual were only partially filled with chatting members. The band, the organ and the singers as usual entertained the crowd while things were waiting to be started. Beside the speech placing Ambas sador Davis in nomination, it was un derstood that Senator Glass would be placed ia nomination by Represen tative Flood, one of the Virginia dele gates. So far as the conventon offi cials had been advised early today, that ended the list of nominating speeches, and the next business would be to take up the platform if the reso lutions committee were ready to re port. A suspension or the rules would be necessary if the convention were to proceed to balloting for a nominee before it passes on the platform. Band Tries Old-Time Airs. Reminiscent of the happy singing carnival of yesterday that held the convention in its joyful grip for an hour, the band went back to some of the old-time airs that had been put ting the big audience in a carnival spirit. The bandmaster tried "The Sidewalks of New York," but the spirit was lacking and he got no re sponse, but when he switched to his stock demonstration producer, "Dixie," he drew the usual crop of yells. Whole sections in the state spaces were still unoccupied in some parts ot the hall. The delegates who were present wanted to talk rather than come to order, and Senator Robinson had to do some vigorous and contin ued whacking with the gavel. "Why in the world should It take a man five minutes to sit down?" he remarked to some of his assistants. Police Clear Aisles. After sending the police through the aisles to clear them, the chairman got the delegates seated and Bishop Nichols of the F.piscopal diocese f San Francisco offered a prayer, con cluding by leading tne convention in the recitation of the Lord's prayer. Then the organ pealed off "The Star- Spangled Banner," and tne conven or! chorused in the strains ot tne aiestic air. At the close of the singing Judge Murasky of San Francisco tok a place at the speaker's stand an 1 recited The Battle Hymn of the Republic, hile the great organ softly tluobcej he melody of the martial air in ac companiment. The judge recited the first stanza hile the organ trembled out Its me lodious strains, and then coming io he chorus, turned his eyes to a far allery, where a clear, bell-toned so- rano rang out witn t'.e reirain. ds- inning softly at first and then join ing in the peal of the organ as it urst out into the mighty tnunaer or. Glory, glory, hallelujah.- Then the udience joined in the rolling morus nd the great auditorium was filled o the very roof with sonrr. Sons; Rendition Impressive. Throughout the rendition of the Immortal hymn the con enl'.on heaid rst the soft-voiced tones of the man reciting the lines with th soft trcm- !e of the organ. Then the eclio ;rom the gallery as the soprano voice oincd in and sent back the refrain. nd then the roaring cnorus of the convention. It was an impressive rendition which pulls I ;it tho heart- trings and aroused th fie of patri- tirm in every heart. At the conclusion of the singing he secretary of. the convention con inued the call of the roll of states for the nominating speeches. New Mexico, first on the call, sim ply seconded the nomination of Will- lam G. McAdoo. It was a signal for demonstration which started in the galleries and spread to some de'ega- ions. on the floor, but did not last long. North Caroline sent w. c. isewiana of Lenoir to- the platform to place in nomination Senator Simmons, for whom the North Carolina delegates re instructed. Mrs. Martha Nelson McCann of California made a seconding speech for Simmons, merely saying: "Ladies and gentlemen of the con ention I rise to second the nomi nation of Senator Simmons of North Carolina."

The price tells the story, $3000 COVEY MOTOR CAR COMPANY Washington St. at 21st. Mala 6344, actres well known !n Portland, began by telling tha convention a funny story which ran to the effect that while man was asleep in the garden of Eden the creator took his brains to create woman. The men of the con vention took '.he thrust and laughed heartily. "Women will select a man," said she, "whose jast life can stand the searchlight test and' whose present life measures up to women's ideals." "This man.'' said Mrs. Brown, "is not a preacher, although in his life he practices what preachers preach. He i'l home-brad and a well-rounded American statesman." Mrs. Brown Makes Hit. Mrs. Brown made a. hit with her audience and when she concluded the band played '"On, What a Pal Was Mary." Borden Burr of Alabama seconded the nomination of Mr. Davis. Mrs. Guilford Dudley of Nashville, Tenn., also delivered a seconding speech for Mr. Davis. Wisconsin, Wyoming. Alaska, the District of Columbia, Hawaii and the Philippines were called and Miss Bessie Dwyer of Manila, was escorted to the speaker's stand to make a nominating speech for Francis Burton Harrison, governor-general of the Philippines. She did it expeditiously and much to the point. Porto Rico and the Canal Zone had no candidates to present. Chairman Robinson announced that there would be a meeting of dele gates interested in the Irish question at 1 o'clock this afternoon. The presentation of nominating speeches waa ended and unless the convention decided to suspend Its rules and begin balloting, it would have nothing before it except con sideration of the platform, which was not ready. Secretary Hoffman announced that the platform would not bo ready to report until S o'clock tonight. Mayor M. P. Snyder of Los Angelee was introduced and invited the con vention delegates to visit his city on their way home. Mrs. Gould B. Blakeley of Utah, a member of the state legislature, pre sented a resolution calling on the Louisiana legislature to ratify the suffrage amendment to the constitu tion. Governor John M. Parker was asked in a telegram to transmit a special message to the legislature. Objection was made and the reso lution could not go through. Wilbur W. Marsh of Iowa moved a suspension of the rules so the con vention could go ahead with ballot ing. There was objection from many parts of the hall. K TS HURLED There were calls of "we want to hear Bryan" from the galleries. Adjournment Is Announced. Disappointed at another delay, the convention called "platform," "plat form," and "Bryan," "Bryan." The selections were ratified never theless. Senator Robinson then told the con vention that after conferring with the platform commitee he had found them still in session, with prospects of continuing for a considerable time. He said the chair was assured the committee would be ready to report early in the morning. There were, yells of disappointment at that. And in response to calls for Bryan, Sonator Robinson said the Nebraskan was unable to be present as he was busy with the platform committee. Then on a motion to adjourn until 10 o'clock tomorrow the convention broke up for the night. BOYS GET FIRECRACKERS Lads Buy Xoise Makers Outside of City to Evade Law. VANCOUVER, Wash., July 1. (Spe cial.) "Nigger chasers." firecrackers, Roman candles, pin wheels and paper cap pistols, banned by an ordinance in this city, are being sold by a number of merchants just outside of the city limits. These noise producers. which cause joy to the? small boy necessitate his walking several miles to the places where they are sold. For several days the supply has been dwindling, and there ia ample evl dence that the boys are well supplied and will celebrate in the good old- tashioned way July 4 and 5. In the city the merchants are sell ing a number of noise-producing con trivances, but they are all mechanical and as it requires effort to operate them they are not so popular. George Sanford, chief of police, today cited city ordinances which prohibit firing of firecrackers in the city limits, and gives warning that any who violate the ordinances will be arrested. BY Ml. FOES Delegates Collared in Effort to Block Nomination. Oregon With McAdoe Forces. North Dakota passed and Oregon nnounccd that the? delegation "joined the movement to draft the Honorable William G. McAdoo." The McAdoo boomers, helped out by the band, made that the signal for another brief demonstration. Rhode Island passed, so did South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, and Utah announced that it seconded the nomination of McAdoo. Vermont passed and Virginia sent Representative Flood to the platform to nominate Senator Glass, chairman of the resolutions committee. In describing Glass as the "warm sup porter and close political adviser of Woodrow Wilson, Mr. Fiooa toia the convention that Senator Glass home town, Lynchburg, a., was a manument to his ability. Mr. Flood reviewed the work of Glass in the house of representatives, the treasury department and finally in the senate, and ended by declaring he offered to tho party the experience and the capacity of "a brave man whose democracy will never wane and whose patriotism will never be questioned. Davis Is Nominated. Washington was called and passed and West Virginia sent Governor Comwell to the platform to nominate John W. Davis, ambassador to Great Britain. Governor Comwell told the con vention that if the campaign was merely a contest to keep control o the government for the democratic party "to keep some people in po itical office and to put others into office, then I am ready to quit now. The public record of Mr Davis, Governor Comwell said, assured that if nominated he would not be the candidate "of any class, any section or any group." "You cannot afford in this convert tion, said he. "to nominate a man merely because he 'is supposed to be popular with one particular group o people in the country at the sacrifice of leadership. If you do that you make the democratic party a sec tional organization." The convention construed the gov ernor's remarks as a thrust at the McAdoo boom. At the same time Governor Cornwell by indirect refer ence defended the labor record of Mr. Davis which has been attacked. He closed wi:h a reference to the close relations between the president and Mr. Davis and the fact that dur ing negotiation of the peace treaty the president had kept Mr. Davis "at his elbow." Woman Is Like Debutante. Mrs. Julia Brown of West Virginia seconded the nomination of Mr. Davis. Mrs. Brown was dressed in white or gandie gown with a corsage of roses and looked like a debutante as she stepped out to tho speaker's place. Mrs. Brown, who before her mar riage w aa Izetta Jewel, a stock Auditorium Is Overflowing. Although the big auditorium was packed to the doors and roof, fully 6000 persons with tickets of admis sion were on the outside and unable to get in. At 8:35 Chairman Robinson wanted to make an announcement, but the band and organ prevented it by breaking into "The Sidewalks of New York." At 8:40, the chairman finally got order and directed that the aisles be cleared. As usual, the proceedings started with prayer and the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner." At 8:50 the platform committee re ported it was still not ready. On motion of Delegate Linebaugh. the convention went into a temporary re cess While the ato delegation cau cused to name their national commit teeman and national committeewom an. Most of them already have been selected and their announcement in that fashion was principally a time killing proposition, while the platform committee continued to work. McAdoo Combination at Work. While all this was going on the efforts of the combination attempt ing to form against the nomination of William G. McAdoo was at work and reports which came to the con vention hall said it had decided to center on Cox for the present. The McAdoo people, on the other hand, were predicting that their candidate would "go over the top" before the ifth ballot. They claimed backing Oi many prominent administration leaders who are on the ground here. To further fill in the wait a dele gate from Virginia sang "Carrv Me Back to Old Virginny," unaccompanied by any music. When he came to the chorus the audience joined in and the organ chimed along with its resouding notes. He encored with "Mid the Green Fields of Virginia." Kremer Keels Ont Manager, While the convention was being en tertained, Vice-Chairman Bruce Krem er was conferring with the managers or the various candidates to see If they would regard favorably a mo tion to suspend the rules and go ahead with the balloting for a nomi nee while waiting for the resolutions committee. The word came down from the plat form committee meanwhile that if good fortune prevailed there might be a report about 10:30 o'clock and that in the prohibition fight it might be agreed to have only two speakers Mr. Bryan on the one side and Bain- bridge Colby on the other. The meaning of this was that the platform committee could not decide the prohibition issue and was going to let it come to the floor. The band significantly played "We Won't Go Home Till Morning,"' and the audience, ruefully getting the point, did not applaud very loudly. It cheered loudly, r owever. when the band led off into How Dry I Am.' The delegates probably were thinking or the wet and dry fight going on in another part or the building. Suffrage Plea is Made. Mrs. George ZZass of Illinois, chief of the women s bureau of the demo cratic national committee made i woman suffrage speech in which she said she would reveal the "duplicity of republican management in con gress on the suffrage question. The nose count made by the conven tion managers to determine whether the two-thirds vote to suspend the rules and go ahead with balloting could be secured develoT 1 that all of the candidate's managers were op posed to it because they felt it would get them "out of position. At 9:30 o'clock,. San Francisco time the word came down from the plat form committee that it would be ready in an hour. This agreed with the previous word that they hoped to be ready by 10:30. The task of the convention managers was to keep the convention amused. Robinson Makes Announcements. " Mr. Lewis, however, did not speak and Senator Robinson went on to an nounce that the national committee selections would be announced and that immediately afterward he would make an announcement regarding the progress of the resolutions committee. When Mrs. Bass had finished. Chair man Robinson, fresh from a confer ence with Chairman. Glass, and ex pecting to make a report on the prog ress of the platform committee. stepped on to the speakers runway, but the Illinois delegation loudly de manded a. speech from James Hamil ton Lewis. When all the committee assign ments had been reported Chairman Robinson took the speaker's place again to make, bis announcement.

BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE. (Copyright by the Bell Syndicate, Inc. MR. GANONG IS IMPROVING Former Portland Mill Man Under goes Operation at Oregon City. ' OREGON CITY, Or., July 1. (Spe cial.) Joseph Ganong of Portland, who recently resigned the position' as manager of the Portland Flouring Mills and the office of vice-president of the company, is improving from the operation he underwent at the Oregon City hospital about' ten days ago. Within a few weeks Mr. Ganong will be able to return to his Portland home. The operation was for gall stones. Police Seek Idaho Au(oit. Police last night were looking for two men driving a machine with Idaho license 22211 which was re ported to have run down and injured .1. S. Kramer, 50, of the Mallory hotel at Thirteenth and Yamhill streets. Mr. Kramer received a bad ga-sh on the head. He reported to the police that the machine with the two men ran up on the sidewalk in making the turn at that intersection and knocked him down. The two men, he said, took him to a drugstore at Tenth and Morrison street and left him. Published by arrangement. ) SAN FRANCISCO, July 1. The delegates to the convent loTr here In session, leaving aside all other occu pations and duties at least, are today engaged in hurling brickbats at the head of Mr. William GIbbs McAdo. McAdoo became the dominating fig ure of the quarrel today because he wasn't made tho victim of a nominat ing speech. The deftest and quickest way to put a man out of the game is to talk from half to three-quarters of an hour in his favor. A candidate can stand up pretty well under the objurgations of his enemies, but it takes a marvel to survive the boosts o his oratorical friends. Reaetloa Is Favorable. After most contenders had been put out of the running yesterday by words in their favor a gentleman named Jenkins arose and put Mc Adoo into the game with neither praises nor encomiums, employing al together about as many words as you can get into a night letter to New York at the expense of $1.30. Immediately there was a reaction In McAdoo's favor, and today all the forces that are arrayed against him are doing their darndest to stop it. If McAdoo could be nominated by a majority of the delegates this would be the last story to be sent out of San Francisco on the convention. But his busy dislikers have or say they have got more than a third of the votes on the floor pledged against him. They are spending today trying to hold those votes and arc not any too sure of how they are going tu succeed. The difference between pledging a delegate and making him vote the way he is pledged Is much the same as the difference between making a bet and collecting it if you happen to win. McAdoo Question Discussed While the peerless leader and oth ers were wrangling over the p at'orm today, the real figu'.ts in '.!i big dispute were trying to sctfe the McAdoo question. As part of the dele tates left their seats tn-y were seized by the collars and dragged into back rooms to be polled and tugged t.ar that men were set to watch them At least 200 are parked in hotel rooms and only permitted to go out under epcort. By the time, the bailouts: tcgins, and it ought to vtart the first thing tomorrow, the purple v ,io do not wan". Mr. McAdoo nominated will nearly know where they stand near ly, but not quite. Tom Taggart of Indiana is most of the trouble. If Tom wants to be United States senator from Indiana bad enough to loosen a few delegates to McAdoo it will be all over. If he sticks to the anli-McAdoo promise he IS supposed to have made and votes his delegates accordingly, the con vention will have to hunt for some body else to nominate. Anyway, the fight ts beginning to warm up. The well-known team, vil- lification and abuse, have been called in and are working more than union hours. Every story that can be un earthed about any candidate, includ ing divorces, the records ot which have long since gathered dust in the old county courthouses, are being Ufeed as weapons. The republican convention started with fine prospects of a satisfying row and ended as tamely as a gath ering of Y. M. C. A. secretaries in gay Parcc. This one started without any in dications of a storm and may peter out as a story before another 24 hours for the reason that it will break up in a fight. .Woodard, Clarke & Co.
