ROOSEVELT’S CHOICE TO GET INDIANA VOTES Hoosiers Will Back Garner, If He’s the Man, With Fingers Crossed. PLAY SMART POLITICS State Delegation Is Ably Handled by Big Four in Chicago. BY BEN STERN CHICAGO, July 2.— lndiana’s thirty votes will be cast for the vice-presidential selection of Franklin D. Roosevelt, announced Frank McHale, chairman of the delegation, shortly before the Democratic national convention was called to order at noon today. Now that Roosevelt has been nominated, the Indiana delegation will go down the line for him as a unit, the leaders declared. If the presidential nominee wants John Nance Garner, Speaker or the house of representatives, as a running mate, the thirty will be cast that way, although there is not a sign of enthusiasm for him among the Hoosiers. In fact, they privately assert that Garner will be a drag on the ticket in Indiana because of his background, but in spite of this they will do what the presidential nominee desires. Joins With Illinois Indiana was on the Roosevelt bandwagon when it rolled around Friday night and it climbed on, arm in arm, with Illinois’ 58 votes. The leadership of the McHale - McNutt-Van Nuys-Taggart group asserted itself even at 'the last minute and the delegation vote would have been divided just as it j was on the third ballot in the early morning, if the tide had not swung to Roosevelt because of California’s shift from Garner. As soon as this took place a program arranged two days ago with Mayor Tony Cermak of Chicago, head of the Illinois delegation, went into execution. It was reminiscent of the days when the elder Thomas D. Taggart had a close knit alliance with George Brennan, Illinois boss, to hear Cermak announce that “Illinois and her sister state, Indiana, cast their total of 88 votes for Roosevelt.” Indiana on Bandwagon Cheers swept the crowded stadium when Cermak spoke, because the Roosevelt men knew that it now was all over but the shouting. These two states held the balance of power in the convention. When Indiana was reached on the roll, McHale announced "Indiana came to this convention uninstructed and without a favorite son. She takes great pleasure and pride in joining with her sister state, Illinois, in casting her thirty votes for Governor Roosevelt.” Indiana was on the bandwagon in plenty of time and yet had fulfilled its pledge to the stop-Roose-velt group in three ballots during the long, weary grind of Thursday night and Friday morning. The agreement with Illinois provided that when one of the two states saw the break coming for any candidate, the other would be notified and the combined vote cast as a powerful unit. Original plans called for the shift to be to Newton D. Baker, war secretary, but when California broke 1 to Roosevelt, the trend easily was perceived. Employ Clever Tactics Credit for the tactics employed during the convention by the Indiana group, which kept every one guessing, must go to Paul V. McNutt, the Governor nominee; Frederick Van Nuys, senatorial nominee; Thomas D. Taggart, national committeman, and McHale. But after breaking a tradition of many years—that Indiana was a consistent bandwagon state in politics—the Hoosier delegation leaves here rich in powerful alliances which, it is expected, will prove beneficial four or eight years from now when a favorite son is offered for the presidential nomination. The strategy of the leaders of the delegation proved puzzling to the rabid Roosevelt fans such as R. Earl Peters, state chairman; Robert E. Proctor, Roosevelt's Indiana manager of Elkhart; and William H. O'Brien of Lawrenceburg, who wanted to toss in all thirty votes on the first ballot. The fact that Indiana crawled on the wagon only when political horse sense demanded this step showed real courage. When Indiana did go Roosevelt, it knew that he was to be the nominee. At no time did the big four lose control of the members and boasts of Peters and Proctor that they could give Roosevelt twenty-five votes were proved to be of naught. The lines held and Indiana, by playing smart politics, remained in a key position until the end. CITY UNDER"BLANKETS AS MERCURY TUMBLES Falls to Mark of 56; Warmer Weather is Forecast. Indianapolis slept under blankets Friday night as temperatures dropped to 56, ten below normal, but prospects are for warmer weather Sunday and Monday, J. H. Armington, weather man, predicted. Lowest mercury reading during the night was at 5 this morning as a cool area from the northwest swooped over central states. Cloudiness may follow Sunday and there are indications of rain Sunday night, Armington said. Lowest temperature reading in the state was 49 degrees at Wheatfield. Readings in the north and central portions were in the low 50’s, while the south section reported readings near 60. Awards Cross to Amelia By 1 ntted Press WASHINGTON.

ROOSEVELT WON FAME OPPOSING TAMMANY HALL Political Span of 22 Years Culminates in Naming of New Yorker. By United Pres* ALBANY. N. Y., July 2.—A political span of twenty-two years culminated in the nomination of Franklin D. Roosevelt as the Democratic presidential nominee. It was in 1910, when he was 28, that Roosevelt first entered politics and under a very small limelight. For twenty-eight years his senatorial district in Duchess county j had been Republican. He decided j to become a candidate, made a j vigorous campaign and was elected j to the state senate. There he soon became known j through his bitter fight against j Tammany hall. United States senators then were chosen by the state legislature. Tammany offered William F. (Blue-Eyed Billy) Sheehan. Roosevelt opposed. It was a bitter battle, but Roosevelt rallied behind him the progressives and defeated that Tammany candidate. Os Dutch Descent Roosevelt was reared to luxury and tradition. His family, of Dutch descent, came to this country in 1648. For 100 years they made their home at Hyde Park. He was born there Jan. 30, 1882, educated at Groton and Harvard and finally started law practice in 1907 after finishing lad studies at Columbia university in New York. In 1912, while still in the legislature, Roosevelt again fought with Tammany. It was at the Democratic national convention in Baltimore. Tammany did not favor Woodrow Wilson for the Democratic nomination. Roosevelt did, and fought for it vigorously. He was rewarded by being appointed assistant secretary of the navy. In 1920, Roosevelt was the unanimous choice for the Democratic vice-presidential nomination to run on the ticket with James M. Cox of Ohio. Shortly after the defeat of the ticket, Roosevelt was at his summer home at Campobello, N. B„ when he became stricken with infantile paralysis. Conquered Ailment For several months his life was despaired of. He conquered the ailment, but was left a crpple and weak. He refused to give in, however, and after months of treatment began gradually to regain use of his legs. He spent months at a time at Warm Springs, Ga., taking hot mud baths. Today he is in robust health. In 1920, 1924 and 1928 Roosevelt appeared at Democratic conventions nominating his friend Alfred E. Smith, for the presidency, in the last two. and seconding the nomination in the first. He made stirring speeches and coined the phrase, "the Happy Warrior,” for Smith. Smith urged Roosevelt in 1928 to run for Governor, and Roosevelt did, winning by more than 100,000 majority. Since then he and Smith have differed, leading to the wide breach between them at the present convention. Roosevelt married a distant relative, Miss Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, in 1905. She was a first cousin of former President Theodore Roosevelt and he gave her in marriage. They have five children—James, Mrs. Curtis B. Dali, Elliott, Franklin D. Jr. and John A. Envoy Slugged and Robbed By United Press CHICAGO, July 2.—Antanas Kalvaitis, Lithuanian counsel here, was slugged by two bandits, who robbed him of $lO, he told police today.

ROOSEVELT PLEDGED TO PEOPLE’S CAUSE, SAYS BRYAN

BY WILLIAM J. BRYAN JR. (Written for United Press) Chicago, July 2—a new leader is born! The Democratic convention after hours of emotional appeal and fulsome oratory on the fourth ballot has chosen as its nominee for President, Governor Franklin D, Roosevelt of New York. The nomination was made with all the tumultuous applause that goes to one who has that gift of God—the personal power and magnetism to touch the hearts of men. To be named the guardian of all the cherished hopes and aspirations of the common people is not %ily a grave responsibility

GARNER WILLING TO BE RUNNING MATE

Nomination of Texan Is Expected This Afternoon on First Ballot. (Continued from Page One) 1148% votes went in Roosevelt’s column on the fourth ballot Friday night. A1 Smith received 190%; White, 3; Ritchie, 3%; Baker, 5%; and Cox, 1. Acts for Economy For economy’s sake, Roosevelt said in answering the informal notification of his selection, he decided to come here by plane to accept official notification. It would put him face to face with the men and women who named him. Moreover, it would give opportunity to start the battle for Democracy’s capture of the White House after twelve years of exile. The election fight will be made on one of the shortest platforms in history. It demanded repeal of the eighteenth amendment and urges immediate restoration of beer by modification of the Volstead act. Thus the Democrats will battle on a platform marking a milestone in the history of the liquor problem. Economic reforms, stricter regulation of utilities, firm curbing of reckless banking and stock promotion activities, which have wiped out billions of dollars in savings—these also are cardinal features upon which the Democrats will challenge President Hoover. Democrats Are Confident Stirred to new life by the feeling that they have the best chance of victory in years, Democrats planned to waste no time in getting started. Governor Roosevelt will fire his opening barrage today, when he appears on the convention platform. Roosevelt announced he would dispense with this antiquated ceremony. On hearing that he was nominated, he ordered an airplane to stand by for an early morning start for Chicago. That is another tradition smashed. He is the first presidential candidate to travel byair. Roosevelt won only after a hard battle Friday night. Fighting Is Bitter Fighting was bitter. His name was booed from the galleries. His friends were booed even by some of the delegates. The breach between him and his friends and political teammate of four years ago has been widened. Alfred E. Smith fought the battle of a determined man. He held every one of his delegates to the end. The few who slipped away did so without his consent. At the end, he remained the only other candidate who had not withdrawn. One by one the field of favorite sons dropped out as the balloting progressed. Governor Murray of Oklahoma retired after the first ballot, when his delegates switched to Will Rogers, the humorist. Garner Withdraws Next Speaker Garner withdrew during the afternoon recess, starting the stampede. Then followed on the fourth ballot the withdrawals of Melvin Traylor of Illinois, Governor White of Ohio, former Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, former Governor Byrd of Virginia, and Governor Ritchie of Maryland. But Smith remained in his hotel suite. One of Roosevelt's rivals, Reed, took the platform after the nomination of Roosevelt and urged that all Democrats unite against their common enemy.

—it is an honor a king might envy. The Democratic party realizes that the time has come to decide whether this government shall continue as a government by, of and for the privilege seeking class, or whether it shall be restored as a government by and for all the people. That is the real issue of this election. The convention has given its candidate a platform which makes the issue plain. It pledges the party to call an international conference to consider the rehabilitation of silver, and make the stability of our money no longer dependent on the uncontrolled operation of the international dealer in gold.

Boiled Down More Time--Shorter Platform, So Democrats Toiled for Weeks.

BY MAX STERN Times Staff Writer CHICAGO, July 2.—On the principle explained by Mark Twain, who wrote a friend that if he had more time his letter would be shorter, the framers of democracy’s famous 1,400-word platform labored for weeks to make it a compact document. lits two chief draughtsmen were A. Mitchell Palmer (Pa.) and Senator Cordell Hull (Tenn.). The majority or Smith prohibition plank was the work of Senator David Walsh (Mass.), the rejected minority or Roosevelt plank, that of William Gibbs McAdoo. The tariff proposals, written by Senator Hull, were fashioned after the Wilson-Underhill formula. The 25 per cent economy reduction mandate was the work of Hull, as were other economic suggestions. The proposal against cancellation of war debts was made by McAdoo. The planks relating to reform of banking practices were framed by Senator Carter Glass (Va.). Proposals pledging the party to compel corporations to give publicity to bonuses, foreign securities sales and otherwise protect investors were largely the work of Huston Thompson, former federal trade commissioner. The unemployment relief planks were suggested by Senator Robert Wagner (N. Y.). The farm relief proposals were chiefly the work of Senator Burton K. Wheeler (Mont.).

‘ONE-EYE’ DEPLORES POP CORN PROBLEM

‘Shame They Don’t Put More Button on It/ Avers ’Crasher Connelly. BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 2.—The Honorable Maurice (One-Eyed) Connelly, delegate-at-large from forty-eight states and the free territories, today granted an interview in which he clearly and concisely outlined the nation’s gravest problems. The Honorable Maurice was discovered in the lobby of the Democratic convention stadium, inserting what appeared from a few paces to be a dime into the clutches of a popcorn vending machine. "I think this will work,” the Honorable Maurice said as we walked up. “It is a button off a dollar thirty-five shirt, and- they hardly ever fail. “Still, it doesn’t matter much, for they put hardly any butter on popcorn these days, which is a shame, for popcorn without butter is a very poor dish. Nutritious, of course, but not very tasty. “But then, very few things in life are these days. The Schmel-ing-Sharkey thing wasn’t very tasty.” Oh, so the Honorable Maurice saw that one. “Os course I saw it. I traveled from here on the same train which carried Mayor Cermak and his party.

CHAMP MAKER GUIDING FIGHT OF ROOSEVELT Campaign Manager Farley Called Apostle of Contacts. By United Press NEW YORK, July 2.—James A. Farley, six-foot-two, 215-pound Democratic boss of New York state, who managed Franklin D. Roosevelt’s pre-convention campaign and will be the new Democratic national chairman, is an apostle of personal contacts. He has shaken hands with tens of thousands of his fellow citizens, and, what is more important, made them feel that he meant his friendly gesture. Asa political leader, as the building trades head of New York, as the head of the state boxing commission, as a lodge leader of importance, Farley has a record of making champions in every line of his diverse interests. Now he is out to make a President. In 1930 he conducted a boom for Roosevelt as Governor of New York and one for Max Schmeling as heavyweight champion simultaneously. Both won. Then he started Roosevelt off on the road to the presidency, taking time out just long enough to name anew grand exalted ruler of the Elks. Alva Johnson, New York writer, considers it a higher education in contacting to see “Big Jim” contact a crowded hotel lobby at a political convention. Farley was born at Grassy Point, Rockland county, New York, fortyfour years ago, and always has been a Democrat.

New York, I ran back to the observation car and shook hands with the mayor. And I beat him out of the station in New York. "Please don’t ask me how I manage to travel on the better trains. All I can say is that I know a place on a train that nobody else seems to know. “It is a very small place, and I can not come out for food nor water once underway. But a man shouldn’t complain as long as he makes good time. The Hon. Maurice was asked how he liked his career of gate crashing and plain and fancy "bumming.” "It is a very tough life. I am 56 years old now and more than thirty years of gate crashing has cost me plenty of punishment. But it is the only thing I have to do. I tried working once about twelve years ago, and couldn’t stand it. But please do not use the word ‘bumming.’ “People can say almost anything else about me. But they can’t say I’m a lug. I haven’t had as much as two bucks at one time in the last ten year, but I never ask for nothing.” The Honorable Maurice w r as disappointed with the ease in which he crashed the convention. “It was nothing. I had saved the badge I got in Houston in 1928, and all I did was flash it and in I came.” But he did say his last job would be crashing the gates of heaven. He plans to get in by means of a large sack marked: “Harps tuned—wings oiled.”

fort to Wall Street and the money power, but much to bring hope and courage to the hearts of the common people. There is a vast amount of difference between a contract to submit the question of repeal of the eighteenth amendment to a vote of the people and pledging its repeal as a canon of partisan party principle. Only time will tell whether this action meets with the indorsement of the American people. On the whole I am pleased with the platform, for it marks the return for the first time in a generation to the traditional Jeffersonian doctrine.

‘BOO’. IS ROAR AS STAMPEDE STARTS

Gallery Howls Its Protest as McAdoo Launches Roosevelt Drive. BY LYLE C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 2—Hundreds of delegates who had been whooping it up in this convention since Monday for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt were unable to do more when their man finally was named than to stand a moment in their places, sit down and inquire feebly: “Mr. chairman, is it in order for us to get some sleep.” Democratic marching of delegates who had been practicing left turns and shoulder riding for months in preparation for the big moment were unable even to form in single file. And jin the vast curving recesses I of the sold-out galleries the good folk of Chicago reported to the chair that their judgment of the convention’s choice was “boo, rotten and phooey.” The stampede to Roosevelt was stopped in its tracks, in fact, by the bull-throated galleryites. One of Greatest Convinced, apparently, that if they could shout down William G. McAdoo, the word never would get around that he had switched to Roosevelt, the galleries gave the former secretary a booing. It was a booing such as few men have experienced since the McAdoo name roused Madison Square Garden spectators in 1924 to the greatest, nonstop collective boo in American history. “I shall say what I have to say,” reported McAdoo into the loud speakers. The gallery ruled otherwise by mustering its full volume of sound to speak louder than the loud speakers. Cermak Takes Platform Chairman Thomas J. Walsh shouted into the mike so that all within six inches could hear that the gallery was out of order. Finally, Anton J. Cermak, mayor of Chicago, had to go to the platj form to remind the customers that j the Democrats were spending ! money in their town, and might [ come back some time. McAdoo hinted that he probably ■wouldn’t come back, but it was all worked out in time and the uproar subsided. Sleepy delegates were late in arriving at the convention hall for the 8:30 p. m. meeting after a twelve- ; hour session that had kept them in I their seats until long after dawn. The word went out that the deadi lock persisted. What with the price of breakfasts and beds in a big town that was the worst possible news. Then an electric rumor swept the i hall, and set the Texas delegates on j their heads. Speaker John N. Gar- ' ner had released the Texans. James A. Farley, Roosevelt man- ! ager and ex-amateur politician, i tried to drink a package of gum and chew a bottle of pop. But it “Is So" A few Texans said “it ain’t so.” But the war was over. McAdoo finally prevailed over the howling mob. Texas and California went to Roosevelt together. There began immediately the | only effective and efficient parade that can occur in a political gathj ering save only that final resort of , dissenters, which is to walk out. Friday night’s parade was in the | other direction. It was a pell-mell, breathless, unstoppable stampede to the speakers’ platform of favorite sons and their representatives.

had to get right up there, and tell folks that they were trading all hope of a White House desk and chair for any old kind of riding space that could be had on the Roosevelt band wagon. Cermak announced the allegiance of Illinois. Governor Albert C. Ritchie had his brief say through a microphone from the floor. The proxy of Governor William (Alfalfa Bill) Murry almost missed the Roosevelt special. The big cop never had heard of John A. Simpson or the National Farmers’ union. “Get me Senatpr Wheeler,” screamed Simpson. “Outside,” said the cop. But Simpson, an Oklahoman with Murray’s votes for Roosevelt on the tip of his tongue, was not being put off by the police. He shouted some more, finally attracted the attention of persons on the platform, and soon was up there and addressing the crowd, to the considerable surprise and uneasiness of the cop. “Who in the bell is that guy?” inquired the officer. “John A. Simpson,” he was told. “Well, I never heard of that guy, but I guess it was all right,” the officer said and hoped the matter would drop there. It did. INCREASE WAGES OF BUILDING TRADE MEN Pay Scale Hiked 5 Per Cent in Accordance With Agreement. In accordance with an agreement made last winter at the time of a wage reduction, the wage scale of local workers in the building trades has been increased 5 per cent, it was announced Friday by Otto N. Mueller, architect. Wages were reduced 20 per cent with the understanding that part of the cut would be restored July 1, Mueller said. The increased scale will remain in effect until December, it is said, at which time a conference will be held. RULES STOCKHOLDERS LIABLE FOR ‘DOUBLE’ Supreme Court Denies Rehearing in Angola Banking Case. Stockholders of a defunct bank are liable in amounts double the face value of stock they hold, the Indiana supreme court ruled today in denying rehearing of the case of Frank P. Rowley against Matt Pogue. Rowley is a former director and president of the Angola Bank and Trust Company. Board of safety of Terre Haute was denied rehearing today in a case in which Jesse Felthoff, discharged policeman, sought to recover salary from 1918 to 1921, following his dismissal by the board. The lower court held he was not entitled to recover, but the supreme court held the opposite view.

ROOSEVELT KIN NERVOUS. HAPPY AT NOMINATION Children Ars Jubilant, but They Show Strain of Balloting. BY MAXINE DAVIS, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 2. —Hollow-eyed, nervous, now dimpling in agitation, Anna Roosevelt Dali, daughter of Governor Roosevelt, listened to the ballot which nominated her father as Democratic candidate for President of the United States. Sitting with her were her sister-in-law, Mrs. James Roosevelt, likewise pale, but laughing with enthusiasm, her husband, Curtis Dali, and her brother, Franklin Jr. A tall, pretty girl is Mrs. Dali, unmistakably a Roosevelt. She has softly waved blond hair, fair skin, is slightly stooped. She was wearing a sea-green and white cotton printed frock, a necklace of real pearls, and held her broad-brimmed Panama hat. with a red band, in her hand. Her dress had a red belt, and she carried a red bag, from which she often drew a deep rose flap-jack vanity to flip powder automatically in the general direction of her nose. Her three costume bracelets, ivory, green and white, clattered about slim wrists. Mrs. Roosevelt, the former Betsy Cushing, was wearing a navy and white cotton print. She is small and thin. Her white linen jacket was buttoned high, and she held her linen hat on her lap. Both girls wore gardenias. Young Franklin was the mo c t placid of the group. He looked fit and happy because he’d had a long sleep. Ail bad stayed the night through, until the last gavel fell on the twelve-hour session. Franklin Jr. had been asleep at the Congress hotel until McAdoo spoke on the radio. He hastened then to the stadium, arriving just in time for the demonstration. The group talked happily and freely with those gathered around them, but pressed for an official statement, said they had to wait for the family politician on the ground, James Roosevelt, who spent his time working among the delegations. When the Governor and Mrs. Roosevelt arrive today, they will be accompanied by their son Elliott and his bride, Elizabeth Donner. "We knew it would come through all right, but we didn’t know it would be on this ballot,” they admitted. ANNOUNCE PRINCIPLES OF SIAM GOVERNMENT Absolute Equality, Independence of Citizens Guaranteed.
