CHICAOO Un when the 1H dented cam patan button has been swept up. when the lervor and sweat of the national conventions are onlv blur red echoes, two events will stand out In Ue memory ol those who saw both gatherum of the polit ical clans: Herbert Hoover. 77, flshllne back tears, aetlinR the ovation of his life from the party he led to victory almost a quarter-century afro. And Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, 67. a little moisture In her eves, too. bearing the other partv a mes aage from her late husband he who led the Democrats to victory over Hoover and three successive other Republicans In the most turb ulent years of our century. It was Eleanor Roosevelt's turn Tuesday nlitht. It seemed natural to call her Eleanor," thoush she was the w idow of a President of the United States. That's what the columnists and New Prison Riot Quelled BOSTON u Forty-two pris oners, led by two life-term killers, released two hostages unharmed and surrendered early Wednesday about 15 hours after noting at Massachusetts State prison in Charlestown and barricading them selves in the auto plate shop. Correction Commissioner Max well B. Grossman said no prom ises were given to the prisoners and added, "they'll get the max imum (penalty)." The two hostages, Cornelius Horgan, 41, and John Kerriran. 45. prison employes, said they were swept Into the three-story building to the top floor where the prisoners set up a barricade. They said they were not harm ed, bound or gagged by the pris oners. The hostages added that although they were allowed to move around rather freely In the room they spent a weary night and always felt in danger. The temperature in the barricaded snop was iw De grees, they said. The riot broke out about 1 p.m. EST, Tuesday and ended about 4:15 a.m. EST, Wednesday. Horgan and Kerrivan said the prisoners gave them sanawicnes, candy and cigarettes which they had taken from the prison canteen. The prisoners, tney said, nad canned goods which they used for themselves. Grossman gave special credit to the Rev. Edward r. Harugaa. pris on Catholic chaplain, and credit to Warden John J. O'Brien and Deputy Warden John Blaney tor "saving our officers whom you can see are upstanding Americans, and for saving our prison Industry and millions of dollars Involved." the cartoonists called her in the old dava now dear to Democrats the 12 vears and a few months when she callivanted the globe, with the White House her home base. Stt remembered those days. too. She spoke of them, smiling, in her speech to the roaring Democrats. . . . of a cartoon showing two men in a coal mine, one saying to the other: "Gosh, here cornea Eleanor. Now what is site doing travelling around the world lust makuig more trouble?" And the Democrats laughed. But not verv heartily. For this woman In the plain blue street dress, with the two big diamond rings casting sparks of reflection from the merciless spot- hRhu, was a serious symbol to them. A svmbol of victory after vic tory in a vear when the Republi cans have some ideas about win ning tlie presidency themselves for a change. Besides. Mrs. Roosevelt brought a serious message as did Herbert Hoover to the Republicans two weeks ago. They got the same sort of recep tion. Spontaneous. Affectionate. Frenzied. And the messages they brought. this patriarch and this matriarch of the political tribes, were lust about as fax apart as they could be. Hoover's advice has been re ported before: Don't go overboard on aid to other countries. Con centrate on a big air forcel cap able of striking bark like a rau Ueanak if the United States Is attacked. Don't bankrupt the coun trv wtUi big spenduig and ruinous taxes. Mrs. Roosevelt might have Writ ten her speech as a poml-bjr-polnt answer: "There Is a . . . nilnoritv In this coutitrv which advocates changing our national svmbol which is the eagle to that of the ostrich and withdrawing from the United Nations." "Our men are Hunting In Korea so that they will not have to light in their own main streets." "The cost of supporting the U.N. and its specialized agencies for each man, woman and child in the U.S. is 77 cents a year. The price of World War II was S1.71H for every person then alive." Mrs. Roosevelt saved her heav iest ammunition until last. She told the delegates she was going to read them the last mes sage F.D.R. ever sent his country men. It was prepared for the Jeffer son Dav dinner in Washington April 13. 1945. Roosevelt never delivered it. He died just 34 hours before. So his wife read the message Tuesday night: "Let me assure you that mv hand is the steadier for the work that is to be done, that I move more firmly Into the task, know ing that vou millions and mil lions of you are Joined with me in the resolve to make this work endure. "The work, by friends. Is neace, more than an end of this war mi end to Die beginning of all wars, yes, an end. Inrevor, to this un practical, unrealistic settlement of the differences between govern ments bv the mass killings of peo ples. "Today as wa mova against the ten'ble scourge of war a we go forwari toward the greatest con tribution that anv generation of human beings can make In this world the contribution of In-line peace, 1 ask you to keep your faith. "1 measure the sound, solid achievement that can lie made at this time bv the straight edge of your confidence and your resolve. And to vou. and to all American; who dedicate themselves with us to the making of an abiding peace. I sav: . "The only limit to our realisa tion of tomorrow will be our doubts of todav.
