This German warning was reported to have been given to the Central American gov ernments by Dr. Otto Reine beck, the nail envoy to the five republics. By Ruth Cowan Chicago, July 11. iiP) Why not a woman for vice president? Mrs. Elizabeth A. Conkey, Il linois national commltteewoman asked the question today as dele gates began arriving for the democratic national convention. Just to start the ball rolling. Mrs. Conkey, who is official con vention hostess, Cook county (Chicago) commissioner and a political worker of 20 years' ex perience, said: "I would like to see Mrs. Mary T. Norton, representative from New Jersey, vice presi dent. "Of course, there Is Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt but we should save her for the presi dency later. "I think there should be a wo man vice president first before there is an attempt to elect a woman president. And I don't see any reason why a woman right now could not try for the vice-presidency." In Mrs. Conkey s opinion wo men shouldn't sit back and wait for that "right time" for a wo man to come out for vice presi dent. Now, when the slate is anybody's guess, is as good a time as any, she said. Even if a woman failed to get the nomination at this conven tion, she continued, "the first step would have been taken and then it would be a case of try and try again until successful." F.D.R.
