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Fuller was withdrawn by his nomi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.

"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.
