SAN FRANCiSCO, June 24. (Spe
cial.) Senator Carter Olass of Vir
ginia is here and we all understand
that he is slated to be chairman of
the committee on resolutions, which
writes the platform. He is an ad
mirable choice for this very import
ant post, being markedly a man of
onscience and strict intellectual in
tegrity. Mr. Glass brought a model
platform with him. His model is
what has come to have a kind of con
ftitutional prestige under the slogan
"The Virginia platform." It is the
platform of the recent Virginia con
mention and it derives Its vogue
largely from the fact that it won high
approval at the White House.
Carter Glass wrote the Virginia
platform himself. . He says with
pride that he is responsible for every
word of it.

will be whipped into final shape -for

PCRDY IS FOR CHA1BERIAI'
Oregon Senator's Xame to Be Pre-
. sen ted at Convention.
SALEM. Or.. June 24. Will E.
Purdy delegate-at-large from Oregon
to the democratic national convention
at San Francisco, will go to the con
vention -with the avowed purpose of
placing Senator George E. Chamber
lain's name in line for the democratic
residential nomination, he declared
tcday.
One of the country's greatest men
has not been accorded public consid-
ration for the nation's highest execu
tive office." declared the Oregon del-
rate. "This man is George E. Cham
berlain, whose record of fearless de
votion to public interests has caused
his name to be known throughout the
nation. Senator Chamberlain is the
type of man the selection of whom
would offset the machine-made blun
ders of the convention at Chicago.".
The Oregon delegate says he is un-
er obligations to stand by McAdoo
in line with the instruction of demo-
ratic voters of this state, but expects
that McAdoo's withdrawal from the
ontest will afford him an opportu
nity to advance Chamberlain's name
n the presidential list.
Platform Bit VrrbMC.
Since It is likely to cut so much
figure here, your correspondent has
been at some pains to give a thor
ough reading ot the Virginia plat
form. It took some pains. The sen
timents are all right, if you happen
to believe in that kind of sentiment,
but in the matter of length and cir
cumlocution and especially excessive
verbal ornatencss your correspondent
ventures the prediction that the Vir
ginia platform will undergo come
condensation and some improvement
in the direction of simplicity before it
turns up as the national platform of
the democratic party.
The Virginia platform is of the 1880
torchlight procession and "starry
banner" period of political contro
versy. It acclaims "the president" in
one paragraph, "commends" him in
another, "indorses" in a third, "con
gratulates" him in a fourth and re
peats the spirit of indiscriminate
adulation in all. Old - fashioned
phrases like incomparable states
man," "partisan envy and personal
natred and masterly leadership'
etick out on every page.
League Approval Coalite.'
But of course it isn't the verbal or
namentation of the Virginia platform
that gives it the prominence it has
here. By the "Virginia platform" as
it figures here is really meant merely
; that part of the Virginia platform
which indorses the league of nations.
The initial sentence of that indorse
ment in the Virginia platform is: "We
advocate prompt ratification of the
treaty without reservations which
would impair its essential integrity
It is your correspondent's expectation
that the spirit of this indorsement of
the league of nations will be adopted
here There was at one time much
opposition among some o 'mocrats to
such a generous indorsement of th
league, but since the republican con
vention the spirit of these objecting
democrats has changed, for the re
jublicana took a position which
nearly everybody now Interprets as
strong opposition to ratification. Th
democrats are much more united upo
taking a position of direct contradic
tlon to the republicans.
Jt is still possible that there may b
some differences of opinion in the res
olutions committee, but probably not
more than to change the wording o
the indorsement slightly. Bryan
expected to have a plank of his ow
on the league but prevailing nti
ment here is decidedly in the direc
tion of generous indorsement of th
league and tor practically unre
strained advocacy of the treaty.
In other parts of the platform to be
adopted here there will be little re
semblance to Senator Glass' "Virglni
platform." For one thing, the Vlr
ima platform contains no referenc
to prohibition and it is expected tha
the national platform will say some
thing about prohibition, either pro o
con, but on that point also there are
quiet efforts looking to harmony.
This part of the platform, howeve'r,
will be treated in a separate dispatch.
Bryan hasn't arrived yet and no ne
can write adequately as to what this
convention is going to .do about
liquor until he has first talked with
Bryan.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass., June 24. Har
vard university today conferred hon
orary degrees of doctor of laws upon
General Pershing .and Franklin K.
Lane, former secretary of the inte
rior.
The same degree was conferred
upon Robert S. Brookings, banker and
president of the board of trustees of
Washington university, St. Louis, and
upon Roscoe Pound, dean of the Har
vard law school.
The commencement exercises, in
which 1096 men received degrees, fol
lowed traditional form.
Brief addresses were delivered by
General Pershing, Mr. Lane and Gov
ernor Coolidge.
The governor, after saying that
Harvard had performed a great mis
sion, said that the mission of the
commonwealth of Massachusetts had
been "to lead the world into a larger
liberty." The process adopted in car
rying out that mission "began in the
cabin of the Mayflower, where there
was a renunciation, on the part of
those about to found our common
wealth, of their personal freedom, in
order that they and the state which
they founded might enjoy a larger
liberty and that lesson there begun
was carried into the revolution.
"The great issue of that conquest
was not the setting up of an Inde
pendent government. It was the
establishment of a constitution that
provided for liberty under the law
and it provided for it by a remission
on the part of the individuals of some
of their smaller ideas and their
smaller freedom." .
General Pershing'aid that "we have
come to look to Harvard as a uni
versity and to Harvard men for the
solution of most of our problems." 1
At a meeting of the alumni asso

vention chairmanship rather than for
the head of the platform committee.
Wilson Dictation Scooted.
Chairman Cummings and other na
tional committee officials discoun
tenanced talk of an open anti-administration
fight and- protested vigor
ously against loDDy gossip that Presi
dent Wilson was attempting to dic
tate either in regard to the canal
date or the platform.
- "I am aware," said Mr. Cummings,
"of no intention by the president to
communicate to the convention In
any way, shape or form. I antici
pate no olun'-ary suggestion from
him." He added, of course, that there
could be no restraint on the presi
dent's friends in any communication
they might care to establish witn the
White House, though he said the
whole attitude of the chief executive
had been to let the convention woik
out its own destiny.
Glass He puled Spokesman.
Senator Glass, who arrived last
night from Washington as the com
monly reputed spokesman of the
White House, also denied that the
president would seek to control the
deliberations here. The senator came
to make a fight favorable to the ad
ministration.' but if he brought any
word of White House praference be
tween candidates, it did not show up
on the surface in today's conferences.

ject from his conference with Presi
dent Wilson. The senator's own views
were not disclosed in such statements
as he has made since his arrival. He
has been generally classed, however,
among those prominent democratic
leaders who are strong believers in
Mr. McAdoo's availability tor the nom
ination. -
Supporters of Vice-President Mar
shall for the nomination looked at
the situation today much as did the
Davis adherents. They thought Mar
shall would figure prominently If a
deadlock developed as expected, and
their plans were drawn with that in
mind. .
. The only presidential candidate on
the ground today receiving delegates
and visitors was Senator Owen of
Oklahoma. He did not discuss his
chances for the nomination, but was
willing to talk about the platform.
The party declaration should be short
and should be written in the simplest
English and should emphasize the
"all-embracing" doctrine of popular
government, he said, adding that it
should declare for the faithful execu
tion of the 18th amendment.
Attorney-General Palmer will ar
rive tomorrow, accompanied by Mrs.
Palmer and personal friends. C. C.
Carlin, a Palmer manager, said the
situation so far as the attorney-general's
candidacy was concerned was
satisfactory.
"It will be Palmer or somebody
who has not yet been mentioned," was
the way Mr. Carlin summed up the
situation.
The headquarters xyt Governor Ed
wards of New Jersey, avowed wet
candidate for the presidential nomi
nation, showed activity today with
the arrival of Walker Vick. chief
manager of the Edwards boom. Dis
appointment was expressed by many
Kc wards supporters over the inability
ot the New Jersey governor to come
i l person.
Preceding the arrival of the Ohio
delegation there was no development
in the campaign of Governor Cox. In
fact, there was no great activity at
ny of the headquarters, as the big
ush of delegates will not begin until
tomorrow.

Irisli Freedom Advocates Want Ac
tion, Not Controversy.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 24. The
friends of Irish Freedom, whose rep
resentatlve came to San Francisco to
urge a plank in the democratic plat
form pertaining to Ireland, announced
tonight that because of the activities
of the Irish sympathizers under the
direct guidance of President De
Valera of the Irish insurgent govern
ment they would not propose any
declaration to the convention resolu
tibns committee.
The announcement generally was
regarded as aggravating the possi
bility of a determined fight over the
Irish question. Privately the offi
cials of the Friends of Irish Freedom
had advocated a plank which they
said they regarded as less pronounced
than the declaration which will be
requested by Mr. De Valera. He
rived lyre Sunday to lead the fight
ior democratic support ior lnsu in
dependence.
Daniel T. O Connell, who eaid ne
spoke for the national council of tne
Friends of Irish Freedom made to
night's announcement.
Democratic leaders here, while not
willing to ' predict the language or
substance, said they believed an Irish
plank would be incorporated tn the
platform. They resented any sugges
tion that Irish-Americans as a group
were opposed to the league of na
tions.
In his announcement O'Connel
said:
"The decision not to offer a second
plank makes clear that those direct
ing the activities of the 20,000,000
Americans of Irish blood, who look to
the duly accredited officers of th
Friends of Irish Freedom for guid
ance, will not permit themselves to
become parties to any controversy,
They believe the cause is bigger than
the views of any group f men. They
are determined, furthermore, that no
factions shall be created."

L. W. Drennan, Shenandoah, la..
newspaper publisher, will direct the
campaign of Mr. Meredith, who is ex
pected here with the Iowa delegation
omorrow. We will push Mr. Mere
dith's campaign on the theory that he
will make the most acceptable com
promise candidate," said Mr. Drennan.
'Iowa's delegation is solidly for Mr.
Meredith and he is personally accept

ocratic party."
HONOLULU MAYOR TO ATTEND
Russell Sage Foundation and Pub
lishers Must Pay for Wrong
Done to Youth.
NEW TOKK, June 24. A supreme
court Jury decided today that William
McCue wa not "the toughest kid in
Hells Kitchen, and awarded him
$3500 damages against the Russell
Sage foundation and publishers of
a book entitled "Boyhood and Law
lessness." in which his picture ap
peared over this caption.
In asking $30,000 damages, the
boy's complaint set forth that in 1914
a photographer appeared in the Hell's
Kitchen district, where he lived, and
took his picture on the gorund that
he wanted "Boy Scout pictures."
McCue, who is now of age, said he
was an altar boy in St. Ambrose's
church at the time and had never
been arrested or charged with de
linquency in any form.
In denying a motion to set aside
the verdict Justice Ford said:
"There is not a scintilla of evl-
office and had not decided ren ; , l w, .f loUKU ac "
la zl wickcq nuei.
That is the great trouble with
these movements. They think that
where there is poverty there must
be criminality. As a matter of fact.
in those humble little homes in the
section pictured in this book will
be found more Christian piety, more
devotion to real duty, more of the
sterling qualities of humanity than
will be found in the mansions along
Fifth avenue."
F.ncrgles at Convention to Be Con
fined to Duties as Delegate.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 24. Vice
TTesldent Marshall made it known to
night that his activities during the
democratic national convention will
be directed toward working as a
delegate-at-large from Indiana for a
"safe and sane" platform.
' Put a good man on it and let him
fro to it," he added.
On his arrival today the vice-president
said he was not a candidate
for any
for whom he would vote in the con
vention.
He said he would like to have the
platform brief and explicit. Disclaim
ing knowledge of any mfve to place
him on the resolutions committee or
make hlra chairman of it, he said:
"If 1 were making up the platform
I'd write it on a postcard and in such
terms that if we were wrong the
whole country would know it."
Mr. Marshall said he did not antici
pate any serious prohibition issue.
"My personal views on this question
are unchanged," he continued. "1
was not in favor of prohibition orig
inally, but now it Is incorporated in
the constitution and it should be ob
served." PLAXKS PREPARED BY WOMEN

SUPPORTERS ARE HOPEFUL
McAdoo Expected to Be Named 1
Case of Deadlock.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 24. De
spite W. G. McAdoo's announcemen
that he would not be a candidate for
the democratic presidential nomina-
ion, his name recurs very frequently
in gossip in national convention cir
cles. The McAdoo boom, for the roots
and war chests of which the senate
campaign investigating committee
sought in vain, appears to thrive even
gainst the frosty attitude of Mr.
McAdoo himself. Its chief character
istic continues to be the same intangi
ble quality that daunted the sena
torial boom investigators.
On the surface McAdoo supporters
ave accepted his dictum and publicly
transferred their allegiance to other
candidates. There is something about
their alacrity, however, that make
ther democrats here wonder whether
they will "stay put" in their new
affiliations.
Privately 6ome of these former Mc
Adoo supporters admit they have not
lost hope that he will be the nominee.
They state their case bluntly. The
business of the convention is to nom
inate a man who can be elected, they
say. They regard the republican
ticket and platform as "encouraging'
from a democratic point of view, and
believe that the brass tacks of poll
tics will dictate McAdoo's nomination
as the man who could be elected
They are shaping their present course.
they admitted, in anticipation or
deadlock between Attorney - General
Palmer, Governor Cox and other
nrominent aspirants, and a. general
swing to McAdoo at that point which
would result in his nomination.
Meanwhile representatives of other
candidates have been busy mapping
out their campaigns. They also fore
see a deadlock In the balloting, and
it was indicated today that some

the form of, a veto as to what he
does not want. Otherwise it will be
a free and open convention. It may
not do whatever Woodrow Wilson
says it shall do. It will not of course
name a candidate, obnoxious to the
White House. It will have a polite
purpose to choose one highly favored
there, provided, of course, that the
president does not name himself.
There may be some mystery about
the Wilson intentions as to the third
term, but there is none at all about
the attitude of the convention. It
will not be for a third term. The
delegates do not think that Mr. Wil
son is a candidate. They, or the
great majority, certainly do not want
him to be. They might find some em
barrassment in settling the question
if it should be put up to them, bui it
cannot be seriously doubted what
Born of the dilemma they would
seize. They are under no Illusions as
to the painful facts about his illness
and the distressing impression any
serious plan to make him president
again would have upon the country.
That eventuality may as well be dis
missed now from serious considera
tion, notwithstanding all the talk
about it. The persistent gossip is
either part of a deliberate plan to
keep firm the Wilson hold in the
democracy or it is , the misguided
fancy of sundry overzealous admirers
of the president. It is both, perhaps.
Chtcaaco Parallel Seen.
But since it will not and cannot be
Wilson, who will It be? There is
certain parallel here with the Chicago
convention. There it was Wood, Low
den and Johnson against one another
and against the fleta. Here it is
Pclmr and Cox, and a large coterie
of lesser lights, among whom shines
with somewhat diminished -luster the
name of McAdoo.
The convention is in a curious per
plexity about McAdoo. It is disposed
to accept in good faith his protesta
tion that he is not a candidate and
does not want the nomination, but
there is a wide difference of opinion
as to whether his announcement has
eliminated him or enhanced his
chances. Som persons who think
McAdoo is after It say he has bungled
as badly as Hoover did and they talk
aoout the rank amateurishness of the
McAdoo move: some others think that
It is deepest strategy. But delegates
ror the most part, whether they are
merely guileless themselves and think
no guile of others, or whether they
are for some other candidate, insist
that McAdoo be taken at his word.
At the outset, that is what the con
vention will do, except for a few like
the Oregon delegates, who are in
structed for him, and for some others
who have , their own reasons for re
fusing to count themselves out of the
McAdoo ranks.
Llstatelnar Fltcured On.
From the first McAdoo will have
votes, say BO to 100, whether or not
he is formally placed in nomination,
After Palmer is out of it and Cox
Is out of it they figure that the light
ning will strike McAdoo. Much tha
same thing occurred at Chicago. Pal
mer is the Wood of tho situation and
Cox is the Lowden; nobody is the
Johnson, but somebody will be the
Harding.
It may not be all over in 10 ballots
because of the awkward and very for
midable two-thirds rule, but sooner or
later the break will come and some
body will win. The sorrowful truth
about Mitchell Palmer, who has
at the present time more votes
pledged and accounted for than any
other, is that nobody wants him but
the professional political talent. They
would like to see Palmer president
because he has a way with him that
is most agreeable to the politicians.
You can sit down with him and talk
to him. they say.
It would be a most refreshing and
novel experience, indeed, for the
democrats to have a president who
would be a good fellow with th
boys. They are not knocking the
unseeable and non-pliable Woodrow,
of course, when they eulogize th
social gifts of the amiable Palmer
but everybody cannot be like Wilson
and get away with it and they would

but not very wet, it is said; yet he is
wet enough to suit the wet New
Yorkers, who are nominally here for
Governor Smith, but really for some
one who both fills the Tammany ideal
of a president and who also starts
with a certain national prestige. .Be

Ohio and unless he is named to op

Is a pivotal state which has lately
shown decided democratic tendencies.
It will be difficult to win without
Ohio. It will be possible to win with
Ohio.
The power of the Cox argument is
admitted, but there are certain dis
advantages which will cause the con
vention to hesitate. Admittedly tne
delegates are i.ot ready to take a
headlong plunsra into the anti-prohibition
pool with a wet plank: but will
it be any safir to do the same thing
with a wet candidate? The nomina
tion of Cox would precipitate the wet
issue, no matter . what the platform
says or fails to say. This would be
acceptable enough to these delega
tions which are notoriously wet ana
which by the same token show lean
irgs toward Cox; but it is an expert'
ment which excites the apprehensions
of those who are not converted to
the bold idea that the true mission of
democracy is to challenge the dry
sentiment of the country.
Besides, there is Bryan. He has
been against Cox and presumably will

he runs counter to the greater au

will not have his way on the league

other matters and one of them is his
great hostility to any wet or quasi

Thus the difficulties in the way of
Cox are obvious: but that he will be
used to defeat Palmer is equally ob

against Cox and what will happen
