" v pfodsimpmsE By Arthur Briibana It Will Not Be Long. John D. Was Quiet. Bootleg Courtesy. ;" IS: Hard Work Gets It.' .; .(.Copyright, 1827, by New Tor 4 Evenloi Journal. I no.) When this wns written Wed nesday wise men in Houston ex pected Governor Smith to be nominated by acclamation on the first ballot, and Senator Robinson of Arkansas nominat ed, nlso on one ballot, for Vice President. Lutlwir, the eminent German writer, spent an afternoon with John D. Rockefeller, and will tell the world about him. Mr. Rockefeller said to him s "Look, 1 have done everything I have done by being quiet. When I was young I only needed to put the right people in the right Soli." That's the biggest problem, to find the right people and put them in the right job. Industrialists say there are not enough--..ion for the big po sitions. That is true. Also, there are not enough big industrialists that know the right man for the big position when they see him. The man is usually right under their noses. In the South everything is courtesy. Hootlcggcrs at Hous ton apologized through a local newspaper, expressing regret at being compelled to raise prices. They had no idea how thirsty the crowd "would be, and found themselves on Monday with only .'1000 cases, 36,000 bottles, of whiskey and casual assist ance from local stills. Under the cireiunstances they were obliged to raise prices. "Law til' supply and demand," they said. - It seems unnecessary for the Democrats to demand an end of prohibition. "Hard work gets if. There is no royal road to success." That was Governor Smith's message to the graduating class of the parochial high school of the Cathedral of the Immacu late Conception, ol which his if-.Vear-old boy is president. The advice that Governor Smith gave the boys is needed by many would-be "get-rieli-quick" moderns, old ami young. f- Governor Smith advised the hoys to benefit by their educa tion and appreciate an advan tage thnt he never had. He told them that when other men talked about their college degrees, . A., Ph. D., etc., he told them his letters were F. V. M., standing for "Kulton Kish Market," where he worked as n lad. Governor Smith's early expe riences in hard work will en able him to appeal to many men in his campaign that would not be reached by a "Ph. D." "Call money," the kind used lor stock gambling, cost I'i per cent Tuesday. Somebody wants to discontinue gambling foolishness. Rut even T2 per eent money and culling $.'i0,0M1, 000 by the banks dirt not en courage Wall Street. Stock sales have dropped to "ONLY" something over 1.000,000 shares, but prices hold and rise. M A girl 22 years old narrowly escaped death when two men threw her from n swiftly mov ing automobile. She told po lice the men threw her out when she "resented their re marks." JL : (Continued on lac row) WN Platform Differences Flare Up xAfter Announcement That Controversy Had j Been Settled Fight on; !' Floor Looms Dry Floor: 1 Leader Insists Upon More1 i Arid Plank. . i HOUSTON', Texas, June 2S. (ff) : H:30 p. m.) 1) Tlio platform drawn overnight by a dozen mem- ; hers of the democratic nutinuat convention resolutions committee i 1 found roiiKh soltiK todny when pro- senlcd to the f5 members charged i j with reporting out' the Wit. party 1 ; declarations. j A number of planks which It had been assumed would be accepted j without discussion came in for de- bate and chutiKes with a resultant delay In the committee's report to the convention which in no event i could be m.uie until very late in , the day. ' The prohibition plnuk, declnrini; j for enforcement of the eighteenth amendment and all oilier laws, caused prolonged debate. This up set in the calculations of the s in tin I supporters brought the fight over this most controversial subject to an argument before the whole com mittee. HOUSTON, Texns, Juno 28.-r-(tf) 4:30 p. in.) The demo cratls convention's plutfonn mulling committee sent word this after noon to Cbainuiin Robinson that it would not be ready to present the platform to the convention before 7:30 o'clock tonight. The information wns that the committee was virtually through with its drafting of the document bat that the mechanical process of printing and binding wouiu require considerable time. embers of the committee said the drafting sub-committee had been sustained on virtually every point by the full committee, hut there were indications that Gov ernor Dan .Moody of Texas would file a minority report on the prohi bition plank and endeavor to have the convention adopt his proposal for a bone-dry declaration In place of the committee's proposed en forcement stipulation. League Is Forgotten 1 During t tie discussions of inter national affairs, the committee was asked to adopt a plank endorsing the League of Nations and. the world court, but, It was said, no serious effort was made to include these proposals nnd no planks to this end were adopted. Mr. Waybright announced also that the iollowing speakers were enlisted for the floor fight for 11 "bone dry" plank: Governor Dan Moody, Senator Glass of Virginia, Josephus Daniels of North Caro lina, and Cone Johnson of Texas. Any attempt to start bulloting for the uominees before the platform is adopted by the convention also will be resisted. Unanimous consent Is required for such n course, it is believed, and one state caunot prevent It. While rumors spread about of such a program, Chairman Kobinson de clared be knew of no plan for this procedure. Uisliop Cannon, who believes he represents the dry sentiment of the country, said that If the platform specifically mentioned enforcement of the eighteenth amendment and the constitution ft would be satis factory to the prohibitionists. "It is not necessary to specifi cally mention prohibition." he add ed. Ve did not make the repub licans do it and since prohibition already is a law its enforcement Is all we want." IIOrSTON, Texas, June 2S . fP) ; Kdward Wayhrlcht of Flnrltta. j floor leader of the ilrys, announced i today that unless the resolutions committee adopted a stronger dry plank tjian was proposed by the sub-committee a minority report would he filed hy (iovernor Moody t of Texas nnd the contest fotiKlit out on the floor of the convention.
