Vanoouvar it : piiii$4ti?''HvyT,M Ye Smudge Pot By ARTHUR PERRY Wendell Willkie wag noml nated lor the presidency by the Republicans last night on the sixth ballot, He seems to be ine happy choice of everybody but the New Deal dreamers, a nana full of Old Guard die-hards, and the chairman of the Oregon dele gation, who, after all hope was gone, kept right on balking against the inevitable. However, early today, he reluctantly saw the light, and mounted the band wagon. Nobody wanted Mr. Willkie but the people with the last votes and say. The nominee has everything a presidential candidate should have, including a stump and radio voice, something the last two GOP. entries for the White House sadly lacked. He will not stand and be '"smeared" by the opposition with Job-like pa tlence. He will need no commit tee to think up answers to the slurs and barbs of Secy. Ickes He has as nice a set of teeth as the next one, and can grin and show them without over-exertion of the facial muscles. He will refrain from vaudeville monkcy- ahines, and pulling jackrabbits out of plug-hats. When elected, as he will be, his oldest boy will not turn nut to be the most successful Insurance agent with the largest profits in history for a year's effort. There will be no conniving and consorting with Communism and Communists, nor any records for gadding established by any member of his family not elected to any thing. Most important of all, the GOP, leader is Just the boy to peel the hide off the Third Term notion and demonstrate that in a nation of 140.000,000 people, there Is more than one man, qualified to be President. J. Wesley Bates, our favorite chinwhacker. Is again Jumping at conclusions. None other can Jump oftener, or miss a conclu sion farther. .

MORE ABOUT FROGS "A frog has many enemies. It dors not often die of age. The yellow-eyed herons, wading the shallow water, are alert to Mcar its fat green body with their great beaks. The slow turtles. almost invisible in the bottom mud, are enemies; so are snakes and sometimes larger fr,ogs, and of course always man, who ele vours a quarter-million pounds of frog-legs every year. A frog does not die quietly. When it has been seized by a mottled water-snake, and is kicking and wriggling in the grip of the cold fleshed Jaws, the frog does some thing that it does at no otliei . time in Its life. Shrilly and piercingly, it screams. Such is the life-story of frogs It bears no relation, that I can see. to the international situu tion or the question of fascism But frogs will be croaking and hunting and rio.ing in the sum mer shade long aftrr the present ; International situation has been I succeeded by another and prub ably a worse one." (Exchange i California traffic courts heard 130.000 caaea in 1K3D. Closing I me tor Too Late to Claa- alfy Ada la . to p m Cat alall Tl.ouua lul sua. Editorial Correspondence Philadelphia, June 23. Just took stroll down Broad to tha 1'enn station and around tlia block to Walnut and thus back to our hotel, the good old Walton. (Better delete that "good," James, otherwise it 'a O. K.) When we lived in the East some 33 years ago Philadelphia was known as the deadest metropolis in the country. Well, we don't know about it being ao dead. But it is JJIRTY. We haven't seen so much mesa over streeta and sidewalks ainca our last trip to Mexico, as on thia jaunt in the very center of this great city, for it is a great city and very old one. But we can't aay much that ia printable concerning its street clean ing department And this is the hotel where we stayed just four years ago this month when Franklin Delano delivered his Economic Koyalist speech at the University stadium out near the convention hall, while he smiled and held aloft the gnarled paw of good old Jack Garner, the VICE-President (with, according to John L. Lewis, the accent on the first portion of tha hyphenated title.) Incidentally, when we wandered through the cloakroom of the U. 8. Senate the other day in search of Senator McXary, there was Mr. Vice-President asleep on one divan, and Mri. Sen ator Caraway asleep on another. If we had only had a candid camera we could have made some money.) . But to return to the Walton. This hotel ia even older than your correspondent, which is going some. It was built only a few years after the death of General Grant and we don't be lieve there has been a good house-cleaning since. We (the edi torial "we" thia time is plural ag we have the baby of the family with us) were given what is called a suite with bath, hut it really looks like a Hollywood set for a shot in the "Dead End'' tenement district. There is a green mantle piece in each room, green tile covered grate, the combination rather resembling a pile of Palm Olive soap, and a galvanized iron cover over the grate, while in another corner is a dark mottled marble wash stand, with open plumbing and a couple of taps so tenuous that when turned on full speed, the streams are about as com fortable on the hands as a fire hose. The bath tub is made of iron, and so narrow that we know a certain golfing attorney in Mcdford who could never get in it without a shoe horn. There are no deep holes in the carpet, only a few shallow ones, which are pretty easy to negotiate in the daylight, hut not so easy at night, and the dressing tables are fitted with ancient brass fixtures, which are not kept in good repair, so it's rather difficult to get what one may need without a pair of pliers and a screwdriver. This may be regarded as irrelevant, immaterial and incom petent, but one of the leading columnists in the Iedger claimed today there had been nary a complaint about hotel accommo dations from the convention visitors, so we hasten to supply him with one. And for this the going price for convention visitors is ten smackers per diem, without meals! . Well, why not! These party conventions, from a local business standpoint, are reallv designed for suckers, the small-town easy mark, coming to the big city for a week of unaccustomed limelight and whoopee, with the wife and without the kiddies, and sometimes without the wife! One expects to pay for it in more ways than one, which makes the spirit of tlio thing, as far as the lintels are concerned, unanimous. It's only once in four years, like a blizzard in Ashland, or grasshoppers in Klamath. One shouldn't complain if one returns not PERMANENTLY im paired in health or credit. Came buck in the bus from the convention last night with Congressman Mott of the first Oregon district. The bus was packed and the inevitable delegate full of corn liquor from the foothills of Kentucky was carrying on a monologue in a rich, Southern accent, much to everyone's amusement. Con gressman Mott was enthusing over the keynote speech hy Gov ernor Stassen of Minnesota and looking forward with great expectancy to the speech by ex-President Hoover tonight. Well, we never could see eye-to-eye with Congressman Mott since he took the stump for the Townsend plan, and anyone who could look forward to a speech by Mr. Hoover with pleasure just doesn't talk our language politically, so we didn't make much progress with James. En passant James saw the press badge on our coat and mistook it for a dcleguto's badge, so assuming we were a mem ber of the Oregon delegation asked us w ho we would switch to if McNary failed to get it. We promptly cried "Willkie I" Much to our surprise that section of the bus broke into loud applause, with only the corn liipior gentleman dissenting. Saul he: Hut that boy, Willkie, he a a Democrat, we don vote for Democrats where I come from in Kaintuckyl" That didn't sound particularly comic to your corrjspoudent but everyone laughed. Before we leave the subject of this hotel might we give an idea of the exuberant hospitality of "our host" in this City of Brotherly Love. I'pnn our arrival as we registered the stern faced clerk inquired if we had reservations, with that urbanity and charm so characteristic of asks for your driver's license, blocks! A few minutes later when we complained regarding the rooms and asked for better ones, the same individual informed us we were lucky at such a time not to have to sleep in the parkl There was nothing available in this hotel or any other! Returning to our "suite," the connecting door stuck, we gave a yank, and the entire doorknob came off, trying to open a small bathroom window, the connecting rod broke, try. ing to use the phone it took 6 minutes by the clock to get hotel central, the next time we are going to trv the park! ' It was then we noticed prices listed for Scotch and Rve were prominently displayed under the glass top on the "bureau" $u$5 for Johnny Walker for example and these admonitions to guests: " Don 't match coins, play cards or gamble with strangers. 'Dont leave your room unlocked (Shades of the Hotel Clark !) "He on the alert if approached by an apparently half-drunk, jovial fellow who attempts to stick a cmar in"vour mouth (while such a man is giving you a cigar he is removing v0ur w allet !)

Inc. Philadelphia. June 28. Long before the balloting began or a candidate could be chosen, the most important fact about the Republican convention was already very plain. The only question really at Issue among the Republicans was what atti tude their party should adopt towards the international situa tion. And despite the deter mined effort to hang the "war monger" label on Wendell Will kie, the question did not present itself in terms of what to do or what not to do about the present tragic state of the world. It was much simpler than that. What the Republicans were really asking themselves was, "How seriously ought we to take this business? Ought we to regard It as direly inimical to the America we have known, no matter how well and how efficiently we may prepare our military defenses? Or should we decide that, as long as our America Is capable of defending its physical territories, every thing ia going to be all right?" Thf average run of delegates, of course, were far too buey either amusing themselves or searching for a pandwatron to )oln In tne gr-rat debate. The debate aaa carried on amou- tha party leadera. old and new. mho wrote the platform and Influenced the nomination. Very roushlv speaking, the party leaders were divided both sefttonally end chronoLifla'.ly. Tie older lead ers, moet of whom f looked to the itandsrd of Senator Robert A Tart, and westerners lae Senator Charles L. VrNsry of Orecon. Who dldn t want Tsft but were bitterly opposed to Wills., held out for a "business sa usual" approach. They were willing that the con vention should say a few rather meemng'esa words about the disa.fer overtaking t'lrope. Nsturslly they endorsed a strong defense ptxkiram. i Brady. M. O. ED TYPHOID water supply, chlorination of water supply and more efficient control of outbreaks and car riers by the vigilance of the public health authorities and the intelligent cooperation of practicing physicians every where. Anti-typhoid vaccination prob ably contributes considerably toward the prevention of ty phoid outbreaks or epidemics, although routine vaccination of the population Is practiced only when some calamity such as flood, cyclone or earthquake deranges the sanitary control of water supplies, sewerage, garbage disposal, etc. Then, too, the great increase in fly consciousness or popular knowl edge of the danger of flies as carriers of typhoid, dysentery and other disease germs, no doubt have something to do with It. Vaccination against typhoid Is still essential for anyone who may be in contact with cases of the disease and for any one planning to travel In countries where sanitation may not be of the best.

I But they refused to acknowledge that I the eventa abroad might change the whole ahape of Amrrlcan Hie. what ever the rotvrrese did, and whoever j was president. The easterners and the newer men ; who composed the original Willkie strength In delegations all over the I country took qulta the opposite tack. There waa only ona Important reason for their Intense pro-Wlllkle feeling. Like everyone else they admitted that tha situation abroad offered no op- ; portunlty for useful American Inter- ventlon. But they wanted a man who agreed with tliem In considering the events In Europe aa of earth shaking significance, and would not J follow what they bitterly described aa an "appeasement" policy. In short they considered thst the stsnd of Senator Taft and hla adher. enta, for "business aa usual," either with Hitler and anyone else, repre sented a total bllndneaa to the I dreadful lesson of Franoe and Eng land. There waa some row over the plat- j lorm, wnicn ended in a moral but quite mesnlnless victory for the "business aa usual" aide. The real storm center of the debate waa the struggle between the Tsftltes and the Wlllklcltes. The struggle waa extraordinarily violent: feelings were Inconceivably bitter on both aldea. for all the chief contenders felt the future of their country and thenr party were bound up In the outcome. The "buslnesa aa usual" men cried "war-monger" at their opponent, while the feelings of the other side were summed up by the Influential editor of one of the greatest and oldest Republican papers, who said bltuprly, "I f,el aa though "I were on another planet. The world Is tsllin to pieces before our eyes, and theee people Just pretend It Isn't so Nor waa the contenders' sense of the tmpcrtark-e of the outcome In the les.t exaggerated. It wss clesr from the start that Senator Talt. a candidate for president, could only attack tha administration from the "buslnesa aa ususl" angle. Taft could not rebuke the presi dents failure In the matter of na tional defense, for only a couple of montha before the rtnsl destruction of the Europesn democracies he had publicly stated thst VX ooo 0O0 might safely be cut from the presi dent's drfrnae estimates. He could not eftectlvely tell the voters te rrevdem hsd nu ben frank with them, for even af'.er the destruction of rrsnce a .a p:sln:v under way. he hsd co-rpisined be caujo the p-rns gave more space to foreign affairs than to a speech of hla own on the WPA. Furthermore the whole line of ssles tslk he used with the dle-etes wss "business as ususl." and he comrrltted h-.me:f to It ao completely tlist he coia.ned the support of trie most violent and extreme uolauoniste m tha country. 7: ' 7i''r'frr!Jf.,:f i-. 0 v KINDNESS MAY NOT PAY 'Don't pick up yonf wild animals; the mother will care for them' ia warning of N. T. Game Protector Georre J. Murphy as he feeds a fawn, separated from its mother by a well-meaning angler near Troy. N. Y. Much more hinged on the RepuiH llcan convention's cholot than on the 1 decision In an ordinary political debate. The "to u tries as usual" men ; did not talk about it publicly, but one of their strongest selling points j with the delegates was the argument, j "the democracies have lost. Hitler ' has won. We've got to have someone 1 who can trade with Hitler." During the summer. If the worst J happens, the nation will be repeat- . edly ealltd upon, certainly In South ! America and perhaps elsewhere, to decide whether or not to stand fast against Hitler's onward march to an evergreater world dominion. The "business as usual" men of course endorsed the Monroe doctrine, but their endorsement will not mean much if trading with Hitler la their ultimate objective. Thus It was vldent from the start that because the Republicans In congress will have to follow their candidate, the outcome of the de bate would affect national policy long before election time. In The Day's News By Frank Jenkins yHE Republican platform des- ignatcs the GOP as the party of "Americanism, preparedness and peace," which has a good ring. THE Philadelphia platform Is one of the shortest on record, which is a point in its favor. People today, however, are in stinctively suspicious of political party platforms, because it has been generations since one has meant anything. IATEST on the French fleet: Spanish sources say the French western squadron sailed past Gibraltar today (Thursday) headed for Casablanca, French Morrocan base on the Atlantic (in Africa). The eastern squad ron still seems to be with the British at Alexandria. So far no French warship has 3ailcd home to say to Hitler: "Here we are, mister; take us and use us." D USSIA presents an ultimatum to Rumania, demanding ces sion of the province of Bessa rabia and the northern part of Bucovina along with Russian control of the mouth of the Danube and the Rumanian port of Constanta on the Black sea. Today's dispatches indicate that after considering the ulti matum briefly Carol of Rumania submitted. "Authoritative reports" assert that Germany and Italy consent ed to this squeeze play as pay ment to Russia for putting the bee on Turkey a few days ago. IT is "reliably" reported in Budapest that Hitler has as sured Hungary that she will get Transylvania back. Bulgaria is hoping for another slice of Ru manian territory the province of Dobrudja. Rumania's bones, you sec, are being picked. THAT'S the way they play the game in Europe. It s the way we'll have to play it if we let ourselves get rushed into Eu rope's wars.

Kelly CONTINUED PROM PAGE ONE material assistance from the United States; that by the time mass production and delivery of material can be had, England will be reduced to ruins and shambles. In brief, England is about as short of equipment with which to defend itself as is the United States today. Intimated In the rumor from Spain is that if Hitler consents to a peace pact he will Insist on England having a govern ment friendly to the nazl gov ernment, as is the case In France, and that he will insist that David Windsor and not King George, head this govern ment. Duke of Windsor, now In Spain with Wallie, has been quite friendly with top-ranking nazi leaders since his abdica tion. As explained, this report may be screwy, but the earlier one regarding France was also con sidered a pipe-dream. INASMUCH as national defense Is the outstanding Issue, a few side lights may be of Interest. In tha past 16 years congress haa appro priated S. 180.000.000 for tha army Of this only SSS4.SM.000 went for preparedness and of the preparedness sum asoa.WJO.000 waa for tha army air corps and 344. 026.000 for ground forcee. While congress Imagined America waa prepared. 8fl centa of every dollar appropriated waa for maintenance (clothing, housing, food) and 14 centa for defense. j In 1933 there were 3f5 antiaircraft iguns; now 482. with 1.237 "on order." which means they have to be manu- ' factured and that takes time. Thera ' are 218 antitank guns and 1.5S6 are 'needed: "on order" aro 528 with deliveries to be completed next Jan uary. There are 100 light tanks on hand and "on order" 724: on hand are 18 medium tanka and 178 "on I order."
