HERBERT HOOVER, HIS FAMILY AND BIRTHPLACE i awflfti. aaaf, mi 1 i Tnifti fiuiiit nJ 1 t-" -i iirT" i I APPRECIATIVE HE (Continued from First Page) in business conform the confidence of the people in their institutions and in (their laws? "Government must contribute to leadership in answer to these ques tions. The Government is more than the administration. It is pow er for leadership and co-operation with the forces of business and cul tural life in cities, towns and coun tryside. The Presidency is more than executive responsibility. It is . the inspiring symbol of all that is highest in America's purposes and ideals. "It is vital to the welfare of the United States that the Republican party should continue to administer the Government. It is essential that our party should be continued in organization and in strength in or der that it may perpetuate its great principles in our national life. "If elected by my fellow country men, I shall give the best within me to advance the moral and ma terial welfare of all our people and uphold the traditions of the Repub lican party so effectively exempli fied by Calvin Coolidge. (Signed) "HERBERT HOOVER." President Coolidge sent Herbert Hoover, Republican Presidential nominee, the following telegram of congratulation: "You have been nominated for the most important position in the world. Your great ability and your wide experience will enable you to serve our party with marked dis tinction. "I wish you all the success that your heart may desire. Slay God continue to bestow upon you the power to do your duty." Mrs. Coolidge telegraphed: "The President and I send you and yours our best wishes." The Republican national ticket was rounded out by the nomination for Vice President of Senator Charles Curtis, the sixty-eight year old, part Indian representative from Kansas in the Upper House of the National Legislature. The choice for Vice President came after dozens of possibilities had been discussed. It seemed al most that choosing the Vice Presi dent would be a task taking many days. But of all the large flock of aspirants very few remained the last morning of the convention. Finding himself standing alone in opposition to Senator Curtis, Gov. Fuller was withdrawn by his nomi nator. Senator Curtis received an actual unanimous nomination. Curtis was nominated by Senator Borah. The boom for Senator Cur tis had grown overnight. His vic tory was remarkable and rapid. The convention dissolved with some uncertainty about the extent of the dissatisfaction in the Middle West over the refusal of the party to write into its platform the prin ciples of the McNary-Haugen bill, twice vetoed by the President, and its insistence on coming out flat footed for the administration poli cies in this and other respects. The platform of the Republican party praises the administration of Coolidge. It pledges itself to the development and enactment of measures which will place the agri cultuial interests of America on a basis of economic equality with other industry and insure its pros perity and success. The Republican party "stands for the American built, American own ed and American operated mer chant marine." The platform also favored the development of water ways, and the creation for a feasi ble plan to stabilize the coal indus try. There is a drastic plank calling for the rigid enforcement of the prohibition amendment. In general, the platform echoes the principles of the Coolidge ad ministration, even to the question of farm relief, which ws one of the most hotly debated questions taken up. For a time it seemed that the farm relief issue would take days fo thresh out. The lack of enthusiasm noted in the earliest sessions of the conven tion was more than made up for by the wild demonstrations, pa rades, cheers und general hullaba loo of the last two days. All Kan sas City echoed to this convention. The selection of Hoover was at tended by almost unprecedented outbursts of approval. MORROW GENERAL HOSPITAL.

CHARIS of New York , 49 Fifth Ave. J'hcine Main 612 MRS. OLIVE L. FRVE "Electricity A Pioneer of Social Progress" "The electrical industry has been a pioneer In the field of customer owner ship. Thi has for its pur pose to bring about a wide spread distribution of the ownership of the securi ties of utilities among the customers and users in the communities served. This movement is young, but already it is evident that it is one of large import ance. It is important not only as a method of finan cing but it possesses far reaching significance econ omically, politically and socially." RALPH E. HEILMAN. Says RALPH E. HEILMAN Dean of Northwestern t'niveritity School of Commerce Engaged in the production and dis tribution of a service which exem plifies all that Is progessive in mod ern living, it was natural that elec tric light and power companies should be the pioneers in the move ment for customer ownership. The electric light and power Indus try by its very nature is more in timately related to the activities of individual members of the com munity than any other. Its growth has depended on the general use of electrical facilities based on the lowest possible cost. To meet the growing demands for sevice, the economies of large scale production have been applied call ing for new capital expenditure of almost a billion dollars a year. With earnings limited by public reg ulation, public confidence in the in tegrity and efficiency of electric light and power company manage ment alone has made possible these huge sums. The efficient operation of American electric utilities has always been an outstanding example of good man agement and individual initiative, and so there are more than three million individual investors who have expressed their confidence by purchase of power company secur ities. These investors, as well as the 70,000,0(10 people who live in wired homes, depend upon the mainten ance of the American principle of individual initiative to protect their interests.
