BMSM F. D. H
Leader Refuses to Make
State's Vote Unanimous
for Roosevelt in Chicago
By Frank G. Gorrle
Chicago, July 18.
Members of the Washington
state delegation to the Demo
cratic national convention ex
pressed bitterness today over
their inability to make the vote
of the three Pacific northwest
states unanimous for the re
nomination of President Roose
velt because Hugh De Lacy
took a walk" last night.
De Lacy, president of the
Washington Common wealth
Federation, refused to cast a
vote because he said no candi
date had been offered the con
vention who could keep the
nation out of war.
Idaho, Oregon and Washing
ton had cast their entire 34
votes . for Roosevelt when De
Lacy interrupted the proceed
ings to challenge E 1 w o o d
Caples' announcement that
"Washington 'casts its 18 votes
for President Roosevelt."
Poll Required
De Lacy asked the conven
tion chairman to poll the dele
gation and when it came his
turn to vote said: "There being
no candidate who can keep the
nation out of war, I am present
but not voting."
De Lacy left the convention
floor after his statement.
(In Seattle today political ob
servers speculated whether De
Lacy's action meant the W.C.F.
would bolt the party in the com
ing campaign. At various times
he has threatened that his or
ganization would break with
the Democratic party unless a
platform was adopted and a
candidate selected at Chicago
agreeable to federation leader
ship).
The Washington standards
were carried in the Roosevelt
demonstrations.
David Epps and Stephenson
Smith carried the Oregon stan
dards. Willis Mahoney, chairman of
the Oregon delegation, second
ed the nomination for Oregon
by saying: 'The mandate of the
people of Oregon demands that
we renominate President Roose
velt."

FIRES SAWDUST
AT
The sprinkler system of the
Timber Products company on
North Central avenue went into
Immediate action when an elec
tric motor burned out yesterday
afternoon and set fire to saw
dust in a blow-pipe. The fire
thus was quickly controlled and
kept from spreading. Damage
was confined to the electric mo
tor, the loss being estimated by
the company at less than $200
The fire department answered
a ward alarm at 3:43 p.m. and
the firemen worked for almost
an hour in putting out the saw
dust and cleaning out the blow
pipe. A side-head on the la rye
planer inside the planing shed
had stuck and engendered heat
by friction and after this condi
tion had been corrected and the
machine was turned on again
the sawdust and shavings ig
nited, Edward Canoose. assistant
fire chief explained. There was
a sprinkler outlet directly over
the machine and this turned on
immediately and sprayed the
machine with water.
The burning sawdust, how
ever, was sucked into the blow
pipe and into a hopper. It was
necessary to remove all the saw
dust from the hopper and to
shoot water through the blow
pipe in order to drench the fire
and get it completely out.
