CHICAGO SMALL STORIES
(Continued From First Paee.)
Measures to Restore Production
to Pre-War Levels, Education
and Waterways Are Urged.
CHICAGO, .tune 9. Twenty-eight
subjects, ranging from enforcement of
the prohibition act to free food for
hupless inventors, were discussed by
60 pprsona today before the repub
lican resolutions committee, sitting to
receive suggestions on planks for the
Platform. Kveryone who wanted to
talk was heard and the five-minute
rule, gravely adopted yesterday, was
subject to liberal interpretation and
many reservations. At the close of
the hearing the committee had enough
testimony to keep it occupied several
days.
Hieh spots In the meeting included
a vigorous attack on the anti-strike
features of the Ksch-Cuminlns rail
road bill and the Kansas industrial
courts law by Samuel Gompers; a
strong plea by Senator Capper of
Kansas and others for enforcement of
the dry laws; a clash between mem
bers of thi committee when Ben C.
Marsh, representing a farmers organ
ization, made what one committeeman
called "a socialistic speecli ana
demonstration when Frank P. Walsh
spoke in behalf of Irish freedom.
tnll-Lynch Plank Wanted.
Demands that the republican party
take an "unequivocal" stand for en
forcement of the 14th amendment and
against continuation of the "reign of
lynch law" were made by a delegation
headed by William H. Lewis, negro,
former assistant United States attor
ney-general. He urged a congressional
InVh-'nat o MINING TO START
trress from states where full en
f ranchisement has not been, allowed
the negro.
Kdward H. Wright, Chicago negro,
who spoke on the demands, also de
clared that none of the claims made
had come "from us as supplicants, for
we come as your brothers and your
equals.
Questions of taxation must be among
the first to be giverr consideration of
the republican, party if it would retain
the confidence of industry, James a.
Kniery, general counsel for the Na
tional Association of Manufacturers,
told the committee in laying before it
that organization's claims for atten
tion. The manufacturers asked that
the nation's war debt be funded into
long-term securities and operation of
the sinking fund be postponed until
industry has had an opportunity to
recover from the strain of war condi
tions.
General Bonnn Opposed.
The organization favors "reason
able government assistance to those
serving in the military forces," but
objected strongly to any form of a
general bonus. Mr. Emery said. The
Question of a bonus was linked in
separably with taxation, he argued,
Prohibition crept into the hearing
when Wayne li. Wlieeler. general
counsel for the anti-saloon league, and
four other drys urged the committee
to take a firm stand for enforcement
of the dry laws under the Volstead
act. Mr. Wheeler said that the
democratic party would be compelled
to take a similar stand.
"It is pure patriotism and good
politics to stand fearlessly for the
- honest and effective enforcement of
the 18th amendment," he said, among
ringing cheers.
When Mr. Wheeler finished Com
mitteeman Richards of Washington
leaped to his feet and insisted that
he be heard in opposition, but he sat
down aKain when he was advised that
he would be heard in executive ses-
; sion. Joseph Obergfell of Cincinnati
urged a modification of the present
.. dry laws.
Farmer Alno Heard.
Others who spoke at the morning
cession included Jane Addams, for
the women's international league for
permanent peace; L,ucy Branham, Dr.
Robert I.ovett and Miss Grace Abbott
for a lifting of the Russian trade
embargo, and John Kelley and James
Kads How, for the enfranchisement
of itinerant labor.
Measures to restore agricultural
production to pre-war levels and
check the depopulation of the farms
were advocated by representatives of
17 farm organizations, led by John
A. McSparran of Pennsylvania. He
said that while "we seek no class leg
islation, the nation must realize the
danger confronting it and act or pay
the price of neglect now and in
later years as well."
Supporters of inland water develop
ment were before the committee with
pleas for planks pledging the up
building of the Mississippi, and for
deepening of the St. Lawrence that
ocean carriers may reach Duluth.
While the waterways advocates
were before the committee. E. J.
, Grosse, Wisconsin member, sought to
have open hearings concluded in order
that all members could begin the
work of formulating the platform.
- This was opposed by Senator Smoot.
Utah, who asked that members of
, the sub-committee, named earlier by
Chairman atson, continue their
work. The chairman then announced
the hearings would continue as long
as necessary.
A separate national department of
education with a place in the presi
dent's cabinet for its head was urged
by Mrs. Josephine Corliss Preston,
-- state superintendent of public instruc
tion for the state of Washington.
1 Frank P. Walsh pleaded for the in
clusion of a plank sledging the party
to a "full, formal, complete and of
fiical recognition of Ireland's 'elected
government'." Through this, he de
clared, the nation would be vindicat
ing the principles for which the sol
diers had died in the world war. Rep
resentative Mason, Illinois, also spoke
for the plank.
Railroad Bill Attacked.
Ben C. Marsh o the Farmers' Na
tional Council stirred up a hornets'
nest when he attacked the Esch-Cum-
, mins' railroad bill as the "most un
American bill ever passed." Frank

to
gramme of constructive legislation
which in great part has been nullified
by the vindictive vetoes of the presi
dent.
It met the problem presented by
the administration's unreadiness to
resume the tasks of peace, which was
only equaled by its unreadinesa to
take up the burden of war. The re
publican majority sought to repeal a
great part of the vexatious war legis
lation which invades the liberties of
the citizens; that was thwarted by
presidential veto. It enacted the
transportation act and made possible
the rehabilitation of the railroad sys
tem of the country, wrecked by the
MeAdoo railroad administration.
"Under act it provided for the peace
ful arbitrament of wage disputes,
which was so nullified by the presi
dent's delay in appointing the wage
board created under the provisions of
the law that he himself precipitated
the outlaw railroad strike.
Merchant Marine Started.
"The republican majority stopped
the flood of public treasure recklessly
poured into the lap of an Inept ship
ping board, and laid the foundation
for the creation of a great American
merchant marine, to be owned and
operated by the private enterprise of
American citizens, under the Ameri
can flag and under the control of the
government of the United States. The
republicans In congress took from
wasteful and incompetent democratic
administration the telegram and tele
phone lines of the country and re
turned them to private ownership,
which can use them neither for the
purpose or political patronage nor
political espionage upon the citizens
of the country. The republican ma-

ator Lodge of Massachusetts, repub

man of the convention, kept on the
outskirts of the discussion, but is un
derstood to have used bis influence

Compromise Is Sug-geated'.
Senator McCumber was among those
who called at the sub-committee room
during the day to urge the expe
diency of the position advocated by
the mild reservationists.
Declaring the irreconcilable ele
ment was not advocating a plank
against all possible peace leagues.
Senator Borah said tonight they had
already conceded much in the declara
tion tentatively framed during recent
conferences here.
"We don't ask any explicit dec
laration." said Senator Borah, "that
will humiliate those who voted for
ratification with reservations. Nor
do we mean to accept anything that
will humiliate us."
to the convention before 3 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon. Upon convening
at 11, Senator Watson said the conven
tion probably would have to deter
mine upon a recess Until afternoon or
other business.
The irreconcilable group solemnly
assured their party leaders there was
not a single element of bluff in their
.programme, and one of them is un
derstood to have declared that should I jorlty reduced the cost or postage to
the party stand for 'any sort of ratui- I tne people ana increased tne wage oi
cation he would resign from the sen
ate in order to be free to carry on the
fight.
What connection Senator Johnson
might have with the move was not re
vealed. Throughout the senate fight
he stood shoulder to shoulder with
Senator Borah, but talk of a possible
Johnson bolt has been discounted by
the men who are closest here to the
California senator.
Bonus Plank Panned l"P-
Although the resolutions sub-committee
had been in session all day. it
scarcely touched, until tonight, on the
league of nations or any other subject
of serious controversy. Although com
pletely overshadowed by the treaty
situation, the plank on industrial re
lations was understood to have
caused some difference of opinion.
Most of the day was spent in revis
ing and passing over the planks pre
pared in pre-convention conferences
on the basis of findings of the com
mittee of 171. It was decided not to
include a plank on prohibition and
none dealing in specific terms with
the soldier bonus.
The proposed first platform plank
before the sub-committee dealing with
the record of the republican congress,
"despite the unconstitutional and dic
tatorial course of President Wilson
and the partisan obstruction of the
democratic minority," was made pub
lic tonight by Senator McCormick of
Illinois.

'It "is generally understood Senator

in this respect,
"He, of course, recognizes the

has decided not to yield for Governor

Arizona, the second state, is friendly
to General Wood and Is expected to
yield for the nominating address of
Governor Alien of Kansas. The third
state. Arkansas, is scheduled to yield
for the Lowden nomination by Repre
sentative Rodenberg of Illinois.
...
The New York oelegation discussed
today a possible course of action in
the event that Dr. Nicholas Murray
Butler released it after the prelim
inary ballots. "There was no pro
nounced drift toward any outside can
didate," Senator Wadsworth, delegate-at-large,
announced after thu confer
ence. Working all night at forced draft
speed, the credentials committee com
pleted the permanent roll of the 're
publican national convention at 4:30
this morning. Previous rulings on con
tests by the national committee were
sustained in all but three cases.
In disposing of 103 appeals from the
decisions made last week by the na
tional committee, two delegates were
taken from Governor Lowden one in
Georgia and one in Tennessee- and
given to General Wood, but in the 6th
Missouri (Kansas City) district, where
the national committee refused to
seat any one, the credentials com
mittee seated two Lowden men, leav
ing the standing of the two candidates
unchanged.
Other cases decided early today
were:
Eleven Lowden delegates from South
Carolina were seated.
The entire Texas delegation headed
by National Committeeman H. F. Mac
Gregory and reported as split up
among Wood, Lowden, Johnson and
Harding, seated.
The 15 Virginia delegates headed by
Representative C. B. Siemp seated.

The committee that is working on
plans for the systematic salvaging of
waste materials, clothes and other
articles now thrown away will meet
at 4 P. M. tomorrow in room 520 of
the courthouse, and will give its re
port. At the same meeting a sub
committee, composed of Robert
Strong, H. C. Ewing. Marshall N.
Dana. Oscar Horne and Mrs. James
Brockway, will recommend a plan for
the work. Relief of unfortunate
people who are now obliged to beg on
the streets is the main purpose of the
organization.
Platform Tentatively Drafted. .
A tentative draft of the entire plat
form except the treaty, Mexican and
labor planks. Senator Watson said,
had been made subject to revision in
progress. It was doubtful, he added,
whether these three principal contest
ed planks would be ready for the full
committee when it meets at 9 o'clock
tomorrow. The sub-committee planned
to let the full committee work on the
uncontested features, while it wres
tled with the three main provisions..
Before disposal of the treaty ques
tion. Senator Watson said, there prob
ably would be conferences between
several groups.
Fiscal Policy Renounced. '
Other planks tentatively agreed
upon by the sub-committee and which
members said were subject only to
slight changes, condemn the Wilson
administration and charge that, due
to mismanagement, the country has
been found unprepared, as it was, for
war. The fiscal policy was denounced
as likely to lead to damaging inflation
of the currency. Planks urge agri
cultural encouragement, readjustment
of taxation, increased production to
cut the cost of living and condemn
profiteering.
The agricultural plank favors co
operative associations under .federal
regulation; legislation looking to the
co-ordination of water and rail trans
portation with adequate facilities for
marketing farm products and exten
sion of the farm loan banking system.
The administration is denounced for
its failure to reduce the expenses of
the government and to return to
peace-time economies. The federal re
serve act Is plamed for many of the
evils of war financing, and the Ksch
Cjimmins law is indorsed. There will
be a recommendation In favor of ac
tion looking to the restoration of rail
road credit, reasonable hours and
proper working conditions and fair
wages for men employed in the rail
way service.
Wilson Administration Condemned.
The preamble to the platform prom
ises that the "party shall resist all
attempts to overthrow the founda
tions of the government, whether
made in the form of international pol
icy or domestic agitation."
Condemning President Wilson's ad
ministration the platform-makers say :
"Under the despot's plea of neces
sity or superior wisdom, executive
usurpation of legislative and judicial
functions still undermines our insti
tutions 18 months after the armistice.
With its wartime powers unabridged,
its wartime departments undis
charged and its wartime army of
place-holders still mobilized, the ad
ministration flounders hopelessly."
A member of the committee said the
declaration in favor of prohibition of
strikes would merely declare against
their tolerance among employes of the
government.
The labor plank contains no anti
strike or compulsory arbitration fea
tures, and does not indorse the Kansas
industrial court or any similar propo
sition. It would prevail against strikes
against the government and for the
setting up of tribunals for the volun
tary arbitration of disputes in private
industries.
Bonk Criticises Plank.
"I am not entirely satisfied with
the plank, as it is too general," said
Senator Borah.
Senator Borah said there was no in
dication of an immediate agreement
on the league of nations plank.
the driven and underpaid employes of
the postal service. Carrying out its
purpose to care for the faithful em
ployes of the government, the repub
lican congress enacted a law to pro
vide pensions for superannuated and
retired civil servants. It likewise
provided for an increase in the pay of
sailors and soldiers of the United
States and further provided for
reorganization of the army on a peace
footing and for the maintenance of a
powerful and efficient navy.'
"Recognizing the increased number
of women wage-earners drawn into
industry by the war -and by modern
social and economic developments,
the republican congress established i
by law for the first time a woman's '
bureau to aid the states to safeguard
the welfare of women in industry,
and to raise the standards of their
employment.
Record Is Reviewed.
"It submitted to the country the
constitutional amendment for the en
franchisement of women, while 29
republican legislatures out of a total
of 35 have contributed to the ratifi
cation of the amendment. The re
publican congress enacted legislation
for the relief of the consumers of
print paper, which was vetoed. It
provided for an extension of the pow
ers of the government under the food
control act and for the enforcement
of the 18th amendment to the con
stitution. It broadened the scope of the
war risk act in support of the more
gravely injured; it made provision for
the dwindling number of aged veter
ans of the civil war and made prac
tical -the vocational rehabilitation of
those injured in the great war. a:
well as for the vocational rehabili
tation of those who have been in
jured and maimed In industry.
"The republican majority sought not
only to meet the immediate economic
needs of the country, but to pave the
way for a greater programme of
social and economic reconstruction
when the people shall have charged It
with responsibility for the executive
as well as for the legislative branch
of the government. It passed oil
leasing and waterpower bills to un
lock for the public good and through
private enterprise long-pent-up re
sources of the country.
Saving- Effort Recited.
"As the majority in congress has
sought to open the channels of pro
duction, so has it sought to check the
profligacy of the administration, to
realize upon the assets of the gov
ernment and to husband the revenues
derived from taxation.
"The republican majority in the
last congress and the republican ma
jority in the present congress cut the
estimates of expenditure sought by
the Wilson administration by over
32,000,000,000. The republican major
ity provided for the disposition of
the surplus war material. It en
acted a budget law which the presi
dent vetoed because he alleged that
it withdrew from him something of
absolute executive prerogative. The
reserve act was amended to vest in
the reserve board and reserve banks
a discretion to encourage the pro
duction of essentials for the use of
the common people; to permit banks
to lend needed assistance to farmers
who have been so gravely discrim
inated against by the present dem
ocratic administration, and to facil
ilate the development of the export
trade.
"New legislation was passed for the
incorporation of banking companies
to be specially engaged in that busi
ness. Finally, the house of repre
sentatives and ' the senate each
adopted amendments to the rules
striking at the obsolete and irrespon
sible committee system, which, de
fcpite repeated democratic platform
pledges, that party had always re
fused to reform."
Senator Crane gathered about him

and informed the platform builders
they would make a mistake unless
they declared for a league of nations

Because of the position Senator

party parleys, the younger leaders

tion, and decided to postpone discus

WASHINGTON, June 9. Senator
Lodge's speech at the republican na
tional convention yesterday figured
in the bearings before the Interstate
Commerce commission today on the
application of the railroads for ad
vanced freight rates.
In the course of the cross-examination
of Edward Chambers, vice-president
of the Santa Fe railroad, Joseph
N. Teal of Portland, Or., representing
shippers, read an extract from a
speech given, he said, by a "promi
nent statesman.
The quotation read declared that
"under government management the
railroads were wretchedly conducted
and money was spent and wasted
with a prodigality which nothing can
aerend.
Asked by Mr. Teal if he agreed with
the statement, Mr. Chambers declared
that he did not; that the roads were
conducted as efficiently and econom
ically as possible under government
control.
Commissioner Woolley later brought
out from Mr. Teal that the statement
quoted was from Senator Lodge's
speeca at unicago.

After a long discussion of the

before midnight to abandon efforts at

It was determined to clear away
the other points remaining in dispute
and then adjourn until morning, when
work on the league plank will be re

forts to repeal war legislation and
detailed legislation completed by con

of cutting corns and callouses, corn
plasters, etc., are no longer necessary
since a Kansas City chemist discov
ered Cactus Corn Compound.

which stops the pain of corns almost
immediately and causes them to dry
up and fall off. It can be obtained
at any drug store under the name of
Cactus Corn Compound, and a bot
tle costing only a few cents is
enough to remove dozens of corns.
The Cactus Compound method of
removing corns is absolutely safe
and can be used by anybody at home
i wnnouc annoyance or inconvenience.
! I It really kills the corn, while cuttinc
fciS I merely gives temporary relief and
I makes corns crow faster. Get a bot
tle of Cactus Compound today for
certain relief. Your druggist will re
fund your money if it disappoints
you. Adv.
