Report On The Women at i The Democrat Convention y?Jm By MART JANE MERRYMAV a CHICAGO Now that the Demo crats have started making the bat tling Republicans look pretty good. ( was a real pleasure to watch all 48 states demonstrate whole heartedly lor Mrs. Eleanor Roos evelt, v;, Certainly all the male politicoes who have set new track records for long speeches .and all the sprightly ladies' who have cooed over the microphones at the Demo cratic national convention could learn a lesson from their ranking woman member. . ...,-. .

When she was through., she took off her glasses, waved and called "goodbye" and left the rostrum to join her sons and Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr, who occupied a box just back of the rostrum- During her speecn she seldom looked up. 'never e hired, but everyone got every word. Unlike many of her predecessors who have appeared in everything from all white to all red. she wore an unobtrusive navy blue dress with white collar and cuffs. Women are taking an ever more prominent spot in the conventions, and most of the males concede that "sometime -when. It's not so touchy," one will make the vice- presidency. The Democratic wom en fall into, two classes: candidates' wives and party workers, and nev er the twain shall meet. Wives of the candidates have contributed a great deal of charm and beauty to the proceedings but to a woman have -refused to dis cuss politics. .There, is red-haired Nancy Kefauver, brunette Marie Harriman. blonde Grayce Kerr, White-haired Helen Ewing, to name a. few. All of them agree they spend their days keeping house, entertaining, reading, rearing the children. All of them are adept at dressing well, smiling warmly, en tertaining handsomely ana carry.

S Donclng Jo T 2 I Saturday Julv 26 ing on an endless stream of con versation which must be wearing to say the least. All of this is incomprehensible to women like Mrs. India Edwards, vice chairman of - the Democratic National, committee, who is not campaigning for the vice-presidency but says she would accept it Mrs. Edwards said she did not un derstand why wives of the presi dential candidates at both conven tions refused to talk politics. "What do you suppose they talk about," she asked. "Recipes? Fifteen-gauge stockings? I should think they would want to discuss things of interest to - their husbands. 7 i r : There is no excuse, according to her, for women not being able to make up their own minds on both foreign and domestic policy. Mrs. Edwards, once a newspaperwoman on the Chicago Tribune, takes her politics straight and commands an efficient corps of equally dedicated workers who make up the women's division speakers' bureau. Among these is Mrs. Charles F. Brannan, wife of the Secretary of Agriculture. Mrs. Brannan addressed the women conventioneers this morn ing and did a good job of it. She is a tall, slender brunette with an upswept hair-do and a low-pitched voice which Is. pleasant over the loud-speaker.' ...; It may be that the-voice problem lies at the base of the trouble women have nttrnctlng attention in the hut'e amphitheater where the convention sessions are held. Al though they are : easily heard through the amplifiers, their voices sound high and thin. One exception to the rule Is Mrs. Perle Mesta, the minister to Lux embourg. Mrs. Mesta gives a good political speech, good party and wears the handsomest French Im portations seen to date. Then there -are the women dele gates who get almost no publicity but work richt along with the men. I doubt if they have; time for any gossiping, what with their commit tee assignments and the running sideline of - breakfasts, luncheons, teas, fashion shows, receptions and cocktail parties which accompany the convention. It begins to look as if one' of the major decisions of the year will be made by dog-tired men and women who have been trying for a week to .be in at least two places at once.
