The rostrum is about a third of the way from one end, with the delegates in front, the press to the rear, on floors that slope away from the center, making it impos sible for a reporter to see what goes on on the opposite side. I can, by straining, see the Oregon banner, but nobody in the dele gation. , Parade of Orators - Monday's opener saw the usual parade of orators, both men and women, all of whom appeared to be speaking well, but usually not heard from the press section. The convention is held in a buzz of conversation s and clacking type writers only a very strong voice can prevail against. I found Con gressman Judd of Minnesota about the only one I could understand at my place near the center of the section, till I moved into the As sociated Press section a few feet from the rostrum. All the resolutions went through unanimously the first day. Nobody seemed to be in a controversial mood, though there were were many unflattering references to those Democrats by the speak ers. Never was Adlai Stevenson mentioned, though Truman was several times. Maybe ne is to nave an immortality like the Democrats gave Herbert Hoover for so many years. Young GOP Parades '. The Young Republicans stirred a little excitement by parading about the hall with convention banners when their turn on the program came. Why they paraded wasn't clear, but a parade or something more stirring than the speeches obviously was needed. The convention stresses that lt is the hundredth anniversary of the party. The delegates face a huge sign which includes a plaque with Lincoln and Eisenhower in the center with 1856 and 1956 at the sides, big words Peace and Pros perity at top and bottom. Chairman Hall does a fine job handling a big meeting. He is a large, good-humored but very bus inesslike man, not as bald as Jim Farley but reminds one of him, for he does a similar job for his party. One advantage of a scat behind the rostrum is that one can see the "Telepromptcr" which unrolls the speakers' manuscript in front of him out of view of the audience, making it impossible for him to forget his lines, if he's had the script prepared in advance. I came out to the Cow Palace in a bus with olher reporters. I write my dispatches from the AP room just off the main auditorium. Typewriters and teletypes keep up a barrage of noise that mingles with a buzz of voices during recesses. County Loses Damage Suit, $5,000 Given A legal dispute that had been hanging fire since February, 1951 reached a termination Monday when a circuit court jury returned an award of $5,000 for destruction of property. Recipients of the award were John W. and Mary Ann' Agalzolf, Ballantine road, who sued Marion county for damages resulting from construction of a drainage. The complaint charges that the county engineering department placed a drain under Ballantine road in such a manner that water was diverted to the Agalzoff pro perty which caused damaging ero sion. An amended complaint was filed Dec. 13, 1954. This was the docu ment on which the jury acted. 1. The Republican platform draft said the nation has the "strongest striking force in the world," in the air, on sea, and on land and added: 'We will maintain and improve the effective strength and state of readiness of all these armed forces, On other points the Republican platform drafts released Tuesday had this to say: Nationnl resources Pledged a continued "partnership" of feder al, state and local governments and private enterprise to promote water and power development. "In such partnership,", it said "we are leading the way with great federal developments such as the Upper Colorado project and with partnership projects of great importance, some of which have been shelved by the Democratic 80th Congress. Government Integrity Said the (jUP has established a clean, honorable and increasingly effi cient" government, It pledged vigilance against corruption and waste and elimination of govern ment competition with private enterprise. "We condemn Illegal lobbying," this plank said. - "for any cause and -improper- use 01 money- in political activities.: including the use ot tunas collected Dy compul sion for political purposes con trary to tne personal desires the individual, Ramsey Rites Wednesday Funeral services will be held at the Clough - B a r r i c k chapel Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock fc- Miss Eva Jane Ramsey, for mer Salem resident, who died at her home in Oswego Sunday.
