(IflPMFFTlll ( Copyright, 1ST, by New York Evening Journal. Ino.) "The Hoover people, like the man who' believed in 'killinu the cat the first niffht,' intend to find out about that 'Cool idge draft and tidal wave' at the beginning of the conven tion. "The plan is to put President CoolidRe in nomination on the first ballot, and find out at the start how President CoolidRc: feels about it, and how the Re- publican convention feels about ,, ' That's "news," but 1 raver - sal Service will forgive VQU for not believing it. 7 ' tv. tx t 1 e ii T. John D. Ilockefcller, Jr., gives 250,000 francs to repair magnificent windows in the Cathedral of Chartres. Preserving such beauty for nil time and all races is a noble and, sensible idea, better than Sollecting for private posses sion. Last summer on the broad terrace back of the palace of , Versailles, in bright moonlight, 'this writer saw that the heavy stones of the balustrade were fastened together by new clamps of copper. John D. Rocli r--!li Jr., put I Ihera there, and he put the new ; copper roof on the old palace, ; spending millions to preserve that which could never be rc .JTOlnced. That's a fcootl way to uso money. m Mrs. MedUl McCormick is expected to be the Kansas City Joan or Arc to attack and de feat Hoover, before she starts, Mrs. McCormick should remem ber what happened to the origi nal Joan of Arc. Those that upplauded while she served them were missing when tiwy burned poor Joan alive. ' , f . ' . Old Chiua changes slowly. ( Chang Tso-Lin fled from Pek ing to Mukden, his stronghold, on the advice o magicians and astrologers. Two astrologers, one ' called "Prince Benevo lence," seventy-seven years old, another "Iron Mouth," have predicted things that convinced 1 him. 1 The Mongolians like magic ians. Genghis Khan was ruled by one of them nearly 700 years ago. Ultimately and wisely, he had the magician's back broken I by a strong wrestler.

And Newport, Rhode Island, follows suit. That, may help aviation. When Parmcntier took pirtatoes to France, the French wouldn't eat them. The king ordered his nobles to wear potato blossoms in their button holms. Then the French ate potatoes. Now they cook them 1,000 ways.

Hoover is so near lo being nominated that the alliance ngai! !n 1r giving a very good Imnutiun of a be- leagcored but desperately deter-1 mined battalion of stalwarts, try-1 Jng to rally at the last ditch, j Hut there is one element of the j battle that ma ken definite pre- j dictions .untenable, that is the j riddle of Coolidge. i Despite all he has said, a con- 1 siderahle "block of votes will be j cast for the president on the first! ballot unless in the meantime he or some trusted spokesman says something more. Kurthermore. if u real prospect of his renomln ation develops, the Hoover mana gers will be the last to stand In hiH way. Their whole strntegetlc phi n J has- rested on the primary understanding that under no cur cu instances must Hoover be pit ted against C'oolidge. j Whether Mr. Coolidge will speak "the word that can dispel thtsj yumlemont no one . in - Kaiw city seems to know. Some of j tils hest friends belinve lie will. ; Home think he will send the lorn?; awaited message to his secretary, j Kverett Sanders, who arrives Mon-j day j Some believe he already has J given his finnl counsel to Secretary Mellon who likewise is to reah Kfthsas City on the eve of the convention with the unpledged Pennsylvania delegation of which can either give Hoover the boost his managers hope wilt nut him over, or con swell the Coolidge movement to real pro portions. There is no dispute whether the Keystone state delegnt:on. Jurgest in the convention has be- i come in fact the keystone of the convention. The quiet, almost bashful treasury secretary has be-! come in eight years of national prominence a patriarch among : the patriarchs for whose voice ! the convention hesitates. For. I correctly, or not, pro-Hoover and nntt-Honver lenders have come to ; believe. that Mellnn's word will be j Coolldge's word of counsel to j Jiis party. ! No one Is more alive to the! Iossihle consequences of Mr. Mel-j lnvi's voice than the l.owden al-! lianee, whose almost hourly conn- cils of war are being exhorted by, some of the opposition candidates! themselves to submerge every rlv-j airy to the end that Hoover mnyi be stopped. Already plans are In' the making to get the ear of the! J'ennsylvonian ns sooiv os he comes to town and Impress upon him1 the argument of the allies thnt 1 Hoover cannot command In No-: vemher the normal republican; vote in those normally republican states that want the McNary-1 Hnugen bill. TbuB the fight for Hoover, nl- j though linked directly with he' disagreement over a farm relief , pfank, has almost completely , overshadowed It. As the nrrivin delegates detrained and put their; jazz bands and marching club Into action today and tonight ! along Kansas City's flag- huiig-; streets, there w-ih only a quiet j monotone of discussion of the pvirty platform. Only n small undj rather non-vocal vnngunrd of the mirrh heralded march of the Ms Nnry-Hnngcn ' farmers has thus I far materialized. Some of thci farnt lenders are here and nt work and in good time they prom-1 lse plenty of action. Ftut for tin! moment the pre-convention de-' bate Is distinctly a debate nvr! men rather than platform dec-; larations.
