DELEGATES BEGIN TO FEEL PANGS •OF HOMESICKNESS
Secret Sessions Sunday Probably Will Hasten Nomination, By LOWELL MELLETT Timi* /Staff Correapnn'hnt NEW YORK, June 25. —Sunday is the day they’ll do their dirty work. That’s the day to tune in your radio, if you are interested in the outcome of the Democratic national convention. You’ll have to tune into a lot of private rooms, however, if you expect to learn anything, for the outcome will come out of secret Sunday sessions, not out of Madison Square Garden. The program as now arranged should result in eight or ten ballots by Saturday night of the presidential candidates before the convention adjourns for the Sabbath. The managers will have all-day Sunday to study the meaning of these first ballots and to begin the business of really naming the man. The great quadriennial traffic in delegates should be well under way by the time tired Manhattans begin straggling home from the Sunday picnics, at Coney Island. Cost Is S2O to S3O a Day Sunday the delegates who are Badable will be ready to see themselves traded. They’ll be thinking seriously of home. Their pocket books will be pretty thin, mosT of them for despite New York’s '.vish hospitality it is costing delegates from S2O to S3O a day to live and the average of them cannot stand that drain for very long. The money, in nearly all cases is their own. New York is hot and the delegates are terribly tired already. So when it is a question of sticking to this or that candidate or compromising on a second choice and making a railroad reservation a large section ot the delegates will gladly compromise. They will tell the managers to go ahead and fix it up. It won’t be easy for managers. It will be about the hardest job any , set of fixers ever undertook if cer- j tain figures available in the innermost recesses of the McAdoo head- j

SHIS is the statue of Father Knickerbocker that caused all the trouble. Placed above the Hotel Astor as a welcome sign to Democratic convention visitors in New York, it showed the traditional figuqe holding a huge stein of beer—real, frothy beer, such as symbolized hospitality in the Knickerbocker

era. But so.-ms of hospitality change and so thousands were shouting “skofflaw” as they passed the statue. It was declared a symbol of wet revolt. Father Knickerbocker said he would rather lose his good right arm than his stein. And so they sawed off his arm, and in place of the stein now stands a formal “Welcome"—as the p.cture shows.

But discounting all the I liars, of whom, unfortunately all political delegations contain too many, discounting all the delegates who have favored McAdoo as a matter of expediency or of good local politics is discounting all the moral weaklings who can De reached by outside pressure of one kind and an. other, there are said to be 400 first, last and all-the-tlme McAdoo men voting in the convention.

New Treatment for Varicose Veins Swollen veins are dangerous and often burst. Sufferers are advised to get a two-ounoe. original bottle of Em- | erald Oil (full strength), at Hook Drug Cos., Hang Dug Cos., Henry .T. Huder | and start to reduce the veins and ; hunches at once. Physicians recommend Emerald Oil: j it is used in hospital practice and a small bottle will last a long time, be~ause it is very concentrated and n little goes a long way. Apply night and morning with a soft brush as directed until the swelling is reduced to normal. So marvelously powerful is Emerald Oil that swollen glands disappear when need steadily.-- Advertisement. I youwanta clear sKiin?

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Thanks Sahara Grotto wishes to thank automobile owners who loaned their cars, the police department, city officials and others who have aided in making the Prophets convention here a success, Othniel Hitch, chairman courtesy committee, announced today.
The required two-thirds cannot be obtained without them. Well, even the fighting 400 won’t fight forever. The McAdoo managers know this and their concern is with this 400 rather than the other 160 or so they hope to muster at their highest point. They are wondering where the line will break first and how it will be broken. While the opposition has Smith out in front they are not greatly’worried. When Davis is brought forward, in earnest, however, there will be less confidence. The McAdoo delegates include. for example, a number from Pennsylvania who are scarcely prog ressives in the western sense. They think of John W. Davis as a clean, capable man that comes pretty near being a progressive in the minds of Pennsylvanians. Then, if Davis cannot break the line, they will have reason to worry over Senator Robinson. who is also in the minis of the anti-McAdoo fixers. Among MeAdoo’s southern delegates there are quite a number who could accept Robinson. Robinson is unlikely to be nominated, to !>• sure, but once his name has taken away some of McAdoo's delegates, it will be easv to keep it, perhaps. Bryan “Fear” Seen Following Robinson, the McAdoo supporters have cause for real fear. William Jennings Bryan. Into the stewing situation Sunday they didn't want to see Bryan's name injected. Bryan unquestionably could capture a real section of the McAdoo four hundred if he consented to have his name used. Some of McAdoo’s closest friends are in a frame of mind to join in nominating Bryan, under certain circumstances, if Bryan has a real chance, but they don't want his name used just to draw delegates away from McAdoo. Getting them back again would probably be impossible. Bryan might refuse to run. Nobody knows. Don’t think he is too old. Watching him at work here, active in every part of the struggle, heading the committee on p'.at- ! form arid showing less sign of fatigue j than most younger men, and then i considering the showing that SenaI tor Ralston might make if he under - i took to do the same, no one need worry about Bryan's age. Bryan cannot be nominated, but use of his name would damage the McAdoo line-up more than any other. Then there are Ralston and t’n-! derwood. Little fear of them is felt i by the McAdoo folks. About Senator Copeland of New York they are j not so easy. His picture is well in i the background, but it is the sort of picture that might be effective. He fought for the bonus, his labor record is good and he is ealltd a progressive.
