Ultimatum From F. R. Conference room and plat form rebellions blazed through the afternoon and early eve ning. But Wallace would not stay down. Mr. Roosevelt sent word that he would address the convention at 9 p. m., and then , i . .. . i . . i j . i li in . v.

At 12:20 a. m., the president began to speak just as eight years ago he spoke from the platform here in the Chicago stadium to accept his llr,t nomination. But this time he Was not there. His VOICB Came. Smooth and reassuring as a benediction, from a cluster of loud speakers overhead as this Democratic man of all time, said "I will." No Campaigning No campaigning will he do this year, he told the conven tion, but he will talk to the press and over the radio from time to time to report to the people on the crisis he says exists and to refute "deliberate or unwitting falsification of fact, which are sometimes made by political candidates." He was loathe to continue In the White House and would rather retire. But for the de velopments after Europe's Sep tember declarations of war, Mr. Roosevelt said, he would have renounced public office long be- bliow4 Mil.: 1:1.1 -a IS- 7:mi-s:lS Ends Sal.

In this speech of acceptance Mr. Roosevelt made himself the nation's No. 1 draftee in the cause of peace and national de fense and he said all citizens are agreed that some form of draft was as fair and necessary today as in 1917. And if his draft sticks, It will be because of the voters next November and not by action of the con vention, he said.

And he thanked the conven tion for naming Wallace be cause, he said, he wanted a man of that turn of mind to fight beside him. F.irst Lady Speaks The first lady moved all smil ing to the platform at the end of the bitter roll call for vice . . . ; . . presidential nomination and sald her husband was too busy to be there. "To be a candidate of either great political party is a very serious and a very solemn thing," she said. "You cannot treat it as you would treat an ordinary nomination in an ord inary time. If the back of rebellion against Wallace was not broken before, she broke it. Mrs. Roose velt was telling those delegates to behave by appealing to their love of country. And she had her own tribute to Jim Farley and one he probably treasures more than the radioed words that came from Washing ton this morning. The big man who went along so long and the woman who went along too, and still is going, are great friends. Bankhead Second ROXY Mum !: 1 :4 a:l. V.w.:l THE JONESES AT THEIR FUNNY BEST!

It will not down that Wallace was an Iowa Republi can for years before he became an Iowa new dealer and a mem ber of the president's cabinet, and each time Wallace was mentioned, directly or indirect ly, there were lusty boos.

Farley got eight and from one to five were distributed among Jones, who also withdrew, and half a dozen others more or less informally nominated or not at all.
