" The extremist element, getting its strength principally from the Chicago delegation, doesn’t want the platform In any of Its features. They want a platform which will have game “pep” and "fire” and are prepared so battle for their beliefs on the floor. 3 That they will be defeated and the present platform adopted seemed certain today.

BRITAIN VEXED WILSON IN 1917 (Continued From Page One.) because if we crush it the war is won," the president's speech continued.

He referred to the announced policy of the president in February. 1916, when he declared thp I nited States navy ‘‘ought tn my Judgment to be incom parably the most adequate navy In the world.” He further referred to his own order of October 7, 1915. to the general board for tbp formation of a five year building program of new construction of the naval vessels. Daniels quoted frorm the report of the general board to the effect that “this is the first time any administration has de cided to present to congress a continuing ship building program.” The program was estimated to cost $502,000,000 at that time. Increased cost* have raised that amount to s*oo.oooooo. Daniels declared. "All this show* the navy department was alive to its responsi-oilittes of our entrance into the war,” be declared. PRESIDENT'S PLAN NOT APPROVED. Daniels said the president insisted upon the bottling up of the submarines while the experts of the British navy re fused to grant their approval •'They were supported by Admiral Sims in their contention,” Daniels said. A delay of six months in the placing of the mine barrage in the North sea to screen in tbe submarines was charged to Admiral Sims by Daniels. "A further delay of two months was experienced because of the weather condition existing when we finally obtained the approval of the British admiralty to an amended plan," Daniels declared. ”1 do not want to reflect on she British in any way in citing these instances." Daniels quoted Admiral Straus as saying Hie completion of mine barrage ended tbe submarine menace.
Railroad Mascot Dies Under Engine Wheels MTAMT, Okla., May 11.—" Boomer," believed to be the only “railroad dog" In this state, and mascot of trainmen of the Northeastern Oklahoma line, met the fate of many other "railroaders” here the other day. When "Boomer” attempted to Jump from a flat car to the pilot of a locomotive his feet slipped and he was ground to small pieces beneath the wheels of the engine. The dog was buried in a neat pine coffin and a granite tombstone placed at the head of his grave. Many “hogsheads.” “tallypots,” "greasers’* and "captains” were present at the •funeral." Frisco Mint Resumes Output of Gold Coins SAN FRANCISCO, May 11.—‘ The days of old, the days of gold,” are to return. For the first time since 1916 the mint here is .again turning out gold coins. Eagles and double eagles are being coined, but no *5 gold pieces. Dear to the hearts of all Californians and all westerners, the gold coins once so familiar before the invasion of paper money, again will be obtainable, although it is expected the number to be turned out at the local mint will scarcely meet the demand.

Why Banks Make Money Banking Is good business because banks pay a nominal rate of interest for the use of your money and earn for themselves a better rate of Interest upon it. They deal in absolutely safe loans and invest* ments. Instead of depositing your money at the nominal rate, why not put it directly into the same high-grade, reliable investments that the bank patronizes? Banks invest their funs in such things as mortgages. Why don't you? The American Mortgage Company deals in construction loans, and it pays 7% to its investors. Shareholders may earn as high as 15 r c, because it turns over its funds three times a year. The company, because of the building shortage. has more business than it can handle with its present resources. It therefore offers a tax free, nonassessable better than opportunity to investors.
