Hatch political practices act. He
declared he wanted no large con
tributions. He said the maxi
mum would be $5,000.
. "I hope," he added, "that the
contributions will be small and
widely diffused."
Newsmen recalled that he once
had described the 1932 Demo
cratic platform as the ,-best ever
written." He still subscribes to
that view, he declared.
Wholehearted C. O. P.
Quickly he emphasized, how
ever, that he was going to cam
paign wholeheartedly on the Re
publican platform.
The nominee said he planned
to leave Philadelphia tomorrow
for New York to spend the week'
end with Roy Howard, news-
The French
had an idea
for it
ACK IN 1681 about the
' time when Salem was hav
ing witch trouble the French
developed a system for measur
ing the tonnage of vessels. It
was a method very French, in
deed. Instead of making actual
tests with iron or lead weights
as had been done earlier by
the English the French as
sumed that the 42 cubic feet
occupied by four wine casks
represented one ton of weight.
Then, as today, ships wert
an economical transport foi
fluids. But oil, not wine, has
become the outstanding liquid
cargo. Because Standard oper
ates 228,171 deadweight tons
of tanker ships, it costs you lesi
to maintain your automobile.
Particularly is this true in thi
West, with its vast coast-lint
and its hordes of magnificent
distances. For tankers move oils
and gasoline at one-seventh
the cost of doing it by pipe
line the next least expensive
method.
Even those VTestern motor
iits who live inland benefit
constantly from the foresight
which led this Company yean
ago to establish an economical
tanker fleet and to keep it up
to snuff. Only the other day
Its oldest tanker was retired
to be replaced by another ultra
modern vessel which if you
gave it enough time could
move all the wine in France.

As the delegates streamed Into
the hall again for the conven
tions last session, all talk was
about giving the vice-presi
dential nomination to Senator
Charles L. McNary, the kindly
Oregonian. who has been Repub
lican leader of the senate for
many sessions.
Willkie waa reported to want
him, and that waa enough to
suit the crowd.
Since the early morning nom
ination, big (three inches in di
ameter) campaign buttons say
ing "Willkie for President," had
made their appearance. Some
were even larger; one delegate
helping to haul a big portrait of
the candidate about the hall had
stuck in his lapel a "Willkie
for President" button as big as
a White House dinner plate.
In Gay Mood
After the selection of a pres
idential nominee, the' tension
had noticeably let down. Every
one was in a gay mood, laughing
and talking in the aisles.
It was apparent that whether
he liked it or not, Winkle's
campaign song had Just about
been picked out for him. It was
"Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho, It's Back
To Work We Go," and contin
ued: "With Wendell Willkie
! leading us, the Jobs will grow."
I The band played the refrain
over and over, and printed
copies of the parody on the
song of "Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs were scattered
about the hall.
Representative Harold Knut-
son of Minnesota came forward
after Connecticut had yielded
to Minnesota on the roll call
for vice presidential nomina
tions.
Knutson, who had signed a
statement a few days ago Inter
preted as opposing the nomina
tion of Willkie, now called him
a great and outstanding Amer
ican." who would "lead us to
victory In November.
Knutson nominated Rep.
Dewey Short of Missouri for
vice president.
McNary Nominated
W. S. Moscrip of Lake Elmo.
Minn., next nominated McNary,
He said there was "sorre ques
tion whether he should draft
him from the senate" but that
in this crisis" it was necessary
A great cheer went up at the
mention of McNary's name. The
first seconding speech was
made by Senator Arthur H
Vandenberg of Michigan, who
had helped start the big stam
pede to Willkie last night when
he released his Michigan dele
gation from its pledge to sup
port himself.
"Wendell Willkie has cap
tured the Imagination of the
American people," Vandenberg
said at the outset. "He has cap
tured their hearts, he has cap
tured their confidence, and he
will capture their votes.
"After he has captured their
votes we shall recapture con
fidence and peace and prosper
ity for America."
Others who seconded McNary
were:
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge
of Massachusetts, State Senator
Walter Jones of Hutchinson,
Kas., former Senator David A.
Reed of Pennsylvania.

LINDBERGH SPEAK S Charles A. Lindbergh, the "Lone
Eagle" whose every public speech seems to be attended by both
censure and praise Is shown in his latest photo at the "mike." His
recent speech, urftng that I'. S. stop what he called "this trend"
toward involvement In Europe's war. drew a sharp reply from
Sen. Key Plttman. who lamented the arousing of "war fears."
Philadelphia, June 28. (Pi
Wendell Willkie, the business
man who mussed his hair and
turned into a politician over
night, won the Republican pres
idential nomination today after
the wildest balloting spree of
any recent convention.
He wrested the title from
whooping delegates on the sixth
ballot shortly after midnight.
Thomas E. Dewey of New York,
his forces badly battered, and
Senator Vandenberg of Mich
igan had freed their supporters
to Join the mad rush toward the
blunt-speaking New York util
ities executive.
Senator Taft of Ohio, his
lines crumbling In the stam
pede, finally foil before the
onrush. Then the result was
declared unanimous.
The 48-year-old Willkie, never
before a candidate for public
office, learned of his nomina
tion in his hotel suite, crowded
with enthusiastic friends.
. "I am very appreciative, I'm
very humble, and very proud,"
he said.
"I Intend to give everything
I have to bring about American
prosperity, building an adequate
national defense and restoring
national unity."
One by one, Willkie bowled
over the "favorite sons" in the
early balloting. Then his drive
went into the camps of the men
who three weeks ago had been
favored to win the nomination.
Dewey Goes First
First Dewey's lines began to
tremble and crack. Dewey re
leased his delegates on the fifth
ballot, and there was a drive
for Taft, with the workers of
Herbert Hoover aiding in the
push. But it failed.
The thousands in the galler
ies, hoarse from hours of shout
ing "We want Willkie." took up
the chant again. Delegations
that hesitated or turned against
Willkie were booed; then cheer
ed to a rafter-shaking eco when
they turned back to him.
His nomination went over In
the middle of the sixth roll call
of the longest nominating fight
the Republicans have had since
Warren G. Harding was nomi
nated in 1920. Once, as the lines
tightened, a delegate sought to
move a recess. But Chairman
Martin drove them ahead.
ulations remain the same as in
peace times, the letter pointed
out.
NOT SO SERIOUS IS
WORD FROM ISLES
Conditions In Great Britain
are not so black as the official
German radio paints them, ac
cording to a letter received by
Mrs. S. E. Oliver of Katherlne
Court, 825 West 11th street,
from her brother William Con
roy of New Castle, England. The
letter was written about two
weeks ago.
Mr. Conroy, a radio technic
ian, said that "if you did not
know otherwise, you would not
know we are at war. When the
German radio announces we are
starving and New Castle and
other cities are in ruins. Just
grin and say 'Oh, yeah?' because
if you believe the enemy his
lies have borne fruit.
"We are rationed on certain
things but the amount of food
we get is normal," the letter
continued.
"Before I close this letter, I
want to impress on you not to
be alarmed about us in England
and not to worry about our peril
or about what the Germans are
going to do to us. If the worst
comes to the worst, we can easi
ly pay them back with Interest."
