sidering the occasion, and came quickly to the point which was to lean toward the nervous, eager dele- . gates and utter three words: “Franklin Delano Roosevelt.”

: : Weather Turns Warm i N For 69 minutes men, women, sdme

children, and a donkey romped and shouted around the hall. There

=» Were three bands and an organ.

\Countless tin horns blared tunes of . the players’ own devising. Ear drums quivered with the racket and it spread far from this hall by . radio across the prairies and mountains to the Pacific Coast. A blast of heat had settled on the . city after three days mostly clear and always cool. It penetrated the auditorium, seeped into the clothing of panting Democrats and merely warmed them to their play. Alabama had yielded to New York to permit Judge Mack to place Mr. ‘Roosevelt's name before the convéntion and the nominations wer closed. But the speaking had just " begun. The reading clerk bawled “Alabama” again and up popped a ‘ head over the rostrum. The head was that of Gov. Bibb Graves and he seconded Mr. Rosevelt's noma _ ination.

McAdoo Among Speakers

Banked in rows behind the rostrum were the seconders. Senator Hattie Caraway was there to speak for Arkansas. When California was called, Senator William G. McAdoo rose high before the crowd. \ “Colorado,” “Connecticut,” “Delaware,” the c continued and each state was #fady with a hymn of praise. A 20-minute nominating speech and 5 minutes for each seconding speaker was the rule pronounced by Convention Chairman Joseph. T. Robinson. It was difficult; finally impossible, to enforce. To speakers this hall seemed a vacuum to be filled with words. ' Two hours after the first uproar subsided the speaking still was going on/ and the roll call of states had reached the “M's.” |

Tydings Backs Roosevelt

Senator Millard E. Tydings of Maryland, who has been talking to free state voters about putting con- - gervative brakes on the New Deal, got a big cheer when he stepped up to second for his state. : “The State of Maryland,” he said, sin “enthusiastic and loyal mood pledges its support for Franklin D. Roosevelt.” : “Massachusetts,” was called and Gov. James Curley let one go at Alred E. Smith. : o Washington's day,” he told the delegates, “the men who walked out were known as Tories and it was the patriotic, intelligent citizen, the ordinary man, upon whom he relied. In the present hour it is the same group in whom reliance is placed by ‘Franklin Delano Roosevelt.’ Michigan offered Frank Picard and a Picard-for-President demonstration, anticipating 1940.

Lehman Gets Ovation

Saved for the evening session was the occasion reserved for Gov. Her‘pert H. Lehman of New York. The sign painter had been busy and as delegates assembled for the long . night there were passed among them placards proclaiming Mr. Lehman the best of governors and urging that he run again this year. Mr. Lehman has said he won’t run and New Deal chieftains fear his absence from the state ticket next + November will weaken the pull of Roosevelt and Garner at the polls. The pressure on Lehman is terrific and last night's demonstration must have hit him hard. Z Eventually the Governor smashed throu the racket with a phrase which sounded like “minimum wage.” He was shouting into a whirlwind of sound. And then he finished and the demonstration re‘gained its Lehman character.

Sign Painter Keeps Busy

The sis ainter, working constantly It belowy rushed up a d which said:/ : Placard, on the rocks with Landon and Knox.” Another argued: “The old deal was made with cards.” : marke a AFaLion continued. Midnight (Eastern daylight time) came and with it Mr. Robinson to suggest that speeches be briefer. Senator M. M. Neely, West Virginia, got the platform just then and read the longest speech of the ning. ‘ The 8 firgin Islands was heard from and Mr. Robinson announced he would recoghize the delegate from South Dakota, Gov. Tom Berry, a leather lunged orator waiting for a chance to get back at the ones. : “I move,” thundered Gov. Berry, on of the rules and that ‘the nomination of Franklin Delano Roosevelt for President of the United States be by acclamation.”

There Are No “Noes”

“Who00-0-0-0-0p” whooped the delegates and started off for the roundup. But Mr. Robinson is n liamentarian by instinct and a lawyer by profession. He ordered the demonstration stopped forthwith and to the amazement of every one, especially the demonstrators, they stopped. 5 “You have heard the question,” Mr. Robinson shouted. : “All in favor will signify by saya Was a roa , ear thunder of “Aye.” . There were no “noes.” “The ayes have it and Delano Roosevelt is the nominee of thi SonvSntion for President of the

served placed on the field and in the boxes. The normal capacity of the field is 76,610, which can be stretched by thousands even when the playing field is not used for seats. On the platform with the President and Vice-President will be a host of personages including Senator Alben Barkley of Kentucky, who will notify Mr. Garner of his nomination; Senate Majority Leader Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas, who will notify the President; Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt, 81-year-old mother of the President, and other members of the President's family.

Members of Family Present

Mr. Roosevelt's daughter, Mrs. John Boettiger; his sons, James, John, Elliott and Franklin Jr., were here to witness the ceremonies, as were Mrs. James Roosevelt and Mrs: Elizabeth Donner Roosevelt, former wife of Elliott Roosevelt. Mayor S. Davis Wilson declared

all citizens to display the American’ flag in the President’s honor. B “Franklin Delano Roosevelt is the resident of the United States,” the Mayor’s proclamation advised, “and his visit to the city of Philadelphia confers a signal honor upon all the citizens of Philadelphia regardless of political affiilations.”

Weather Causes Worry

There was only one factor thal worried the mayor, who last night reminded the convention that he had given them everything they asked for except one day of showers, for which he apologized. His worry today centered on the small-type paragraph on the front page of every local newspaper: “Forecasts for today: Increasing cloudiness, probably followed by local showers and somewhat cooler.” If that “probably” turns out for the best, tonight’s mass meeting appeared on the road to a triumphal performance. If it swings the other way, the celebration may have to move indoors at the convention hall. Directors of the show said that light showers would not change their program, as a canopy will be erected to protect the speaker's stand.

Barkley to Notify Garner

The gates of the stadium will be opened at 3 p. ‘m. (Indianapolis time) and the program will start three hours later with Lily Pons and the Philadelphia orchestra carrying the burden until 7 p. m., when the President’ is expected to reach the platform. Mr. Barkley will notify Mr. Garner of his nomination at 7:15 (approximate) and the vice President will speak. About’ 7:45 (Indianapolis time), according to announcement by directors of the “nominator” parties, governors or leading political figures of each of the 48 states will jam their way into separate, sound-proof broadcasting booths below the platform. While Mr. Robinson is notifying the President that the Democrats want him to run again, the state leaders will address -the “nominator” ralliés by radio in all parts of the country. Then around 8 p. m, (Indianapolis time) the President will start speaking.

Fail to Punch Open Large Safe at Stewart’s, However.

Yeggs early today rifled the Indiana University extension division «Safe of $200 but failed to punch open a large safe at Stewart's, Inc. 44 E. Washington-st. Police believe that two men, proficient at their craft, raided both establishments. Twelve similar burglaries have been committed here this year, officers said. Skillfully removing a lock from the front door, the burglars; e€fitered the extension building, 122 E. Michigan-st. They jimmied oben a double door to the main office on the second floor and punched open the safe. They then broke open a steel inner door, smashed the locks off five metal boxes and took the $200 loot. They fled down the fire escape, apparently leaving no clews. The burglars climbed over the roof of a restaurant adjoining Stewart’s, Inc., and took the fire escape up to the fifth floor, where they entered by a window. "The safe, located on the second floor, withstood efforts of the yeggmen to punch it open. They krecked off the combination but punched vainly a circle of about 10 inches in diameter. They overlooked $10 in one cash register.

FRANK KNOX GREETED IN HOME TOWN RALLY

“New England” Policies Pledged by Landon’s Running Mate.

By United Press ¢, MANCHESTER, N. H, June 27— Frank Knox, Republican vice presidential candidate, promised his Manchester “neighbors” at a huge reception for him last night that fundamental “New England” policies of government would be adhered to

rigidly should the Landon-Knox

ticket be victorious in November. Nearly 10,000 persons greeted the Chicago and Manchester publisher, formerly for 20 years a resident here, at his home-coming reception. They heard Knox pledge the Republican candidates to rigid economy in public expenditure, a budget swiftly brought into balance and kept there, maintenance of a sound stable currency, protection of the national credit through fulfillment of every promise uttered, preservation of the principle of local self-government, and maintenance in its full integrity of the judicial guthority.

Baker Choice Sore Spot

A second critical point was the|

choice of Judge Frapk P. Baker, Indianapolis, for rules committee-

man. The delegates declared that they understood that he wauld vote for repeal of the two-thirds rule and that instead he sided with the Southern states against repeal. This was done, they declared, to put Gov. McNutt in the position of attracting Southern support for his 1940 presidential campaign. : Third and last complaint of these Democrats was that they were assessed $100 each and got little for their money. Some of the delegates got only one convention badge and a single admission ticket. Veterans of these conventions contended that in the past this contribution ‘included their hotel room.

Financial ‘Probe’ Considered

Senator VanNuys left for Indianapolis last night accompanied by Walter S. Chambers, Newcastle Democratic editor, who was reported as about ready to launch an inquiry as to what disposition was made of the funds collected from the state delegation. Senator Minton returned to Washington after wandering around among the ‘Hoosier delegates like a lost soul. He supported Pleas Greenlee, rather than Clifford Townsend for the governorship nomination. The latter was the McNutt organizaVion holies and won on the first allot.

to which he has clung so tenaciously Portiand. Ore.

despite all his disappointments, and that the campaign would find him supporting Mr. Roosevelt on the stump. Others were not so hopeful, but were sure that Borah would give no active support to the national Republican ticket.

Democratic leaders will do everything pessible to woo Senator Borah into their ranks, for they consider that his active support would hold many so-called Roosevelt Republicans in line in the territory west of the Mississippi, where he still wields large influence. Nor will they stop with the Idaho Senator. They will seek to enlist other leaders in the West of the insurgent or irregular caliber to join those who have lined up with the

New Deal—Senators Norris of Ne- |.

braska, La Follette of Wisconsin and Johnson of California.

Roosevelt Gives Cue

They will miss no bets, following the cue of President Roosevelt himself, who, when in a tight corner on his legislative program, never hesitated to seek Republican support in order to put through his measures. The immediate attempt to bring Borah into camp will be in connection with the eonference of Republicans and Progressives called by Senator La Follette with the support of Senator Norris fp organize an independent movement for the re-election of Mr. Roosevelt. Alignment with his two’ senatorial colleagues will bridge the gap more easily for the Idahoan, it is felt. The way has been opened for a “walk” by the Senator into the Democratic camp by the Democratic platform, which is believed to be much to his liking on all major issues. He supported many New Deal legislative ventures and has shown that he feels a good deal like the Democrats about the Supreme Court’s decisions on some major Roosevelt measures.

Landon Attack Indicated

Through the numerous speeches in this convention - Democrats have indicated the line of attack on

Gov. Landon, which will be an effort to prove him a spurious liberal, a Janus with a Theodore Roosevelt progressive type of face turned to the West and a Calvin Coolidge visage turned to the conservative East. They believe that Senator Borah so regards him and that if Borah so pictured him publicly, many liberals in the West would accept his word. As for. the Lemke third-party ticket with its Townsend-Coughlin-

share-the-wealth compound, Demo-

crats will potray that as a radical, inflationary movement that offers no hope whatever since it has no chance of winning the election.

? Times Special FINDLAY, O., June 27. — The eighth all-Indiana air tour was to take off here today for Farmland and Fort Wayne. The flyers are due back in Indianapolis at 2:30 t6morrow afternoon after stopping overnight in Fort Wayne.

Last night the’ party was entertained here with a dinner-dance. The tour visited Lake Wawasee and Goshen yesterday. A forced landing by C. R. Nelson, pilot of a three-place Waco open ship, four miles southwest of Hicksille wrecked his plane. Neither Mr. Nelson nor his p ngers, Ivan Rohrer and Al Hawkins; both of Kokomo, were injured. When the motor failed at 400 feet, the pilot was forced to land down wind. The landing gear was ripped off and the ship wrecked. : The passenger list now ircludes William C. Tremear, Indianapolis, flying with Bill Long, and Mrs. John Hedrick and Mrs. Donald C. Musselman, whose husbands are tour pilots.

They would like Boarh to help draw this picture. Everything about the Democratic convention has been done to show it as creating a new ‘party and a haven for liberal, forward-looking elements. The stage was well set for this purpose. : Labor Leaders Present

‘Labor, in the: persons of John L. Lewis, Sidney Hillman and George L. Berry, demonstrated allegiance by attending the convention and praising . the. platform. A gesture toward the Negro vote was made in an address by Rep. Arthur W. Mitchell of Illinois, who held out hope for his race, so long regarded as stanch'y Republican, in the Democratic Party. Women were given a new place in party policy making by being admitted to the Resolutions Com-

mittee as alternates.

BOOTLEG MIL

inspectors Alert for Illegal Peddling.

RY TRISTAM COFFIN : A small police force, little known

but poor farmers trying to untested food and milk into Indian apolis for a small profit. 7 The policemen are four Health Board inspectors armed with scientific testing apparatus to fight the “bottled in barn” variety of milk.

Death Laid to Bootleg Milk

The inspectors now are searching for the “legger” who sold untested milk to an Indianapolis girl who recently died from the painful Malta fever, a disease transmitted from sick cattle. A Daily, the inspectors make their rounds with an eye for untested milk. Sometimes on a farm. that sells regularly to dairies they will see empty milk bottles. pos “What are those doing here?” the inspector asks. : J If the answer is vague and indefis nite, the inspector makes a mental note of it. Some time he will catch the farmer selling untested mille from door to door in the city.

Tips Often Received & Often, the Health Board receives

tips from people that a farmer is

making the rounds of the neighbor= hood with unteted milk. Sooner or later a milk inspector catches up. with him. .¥ Early in the morning, inspectors watch for those who try to peddle ther wares early and depart. Ale though the force is only four men, the City Health Board inspects dairies, pasteurization plants, pro= ducers and their grounds and milk * plants. 4 “Less than one-tenth of - per cent of Indianapolis milk is bootlegged, but that small portion, nevertheless, constitutes a health hazard, “Dr, Morgan, health “board secretary, said.

Milk Born Diseases

He pointed out that the following diseases can be contracted from une tested milk: undulant or Malia feve er, streptoccic sore throat, typhoid fever, summer complaint in infants and bovine tuberculosis. go There are 2700 listed producers

whose milk is consumed in Indian.

apolis. More than 80 per cent of these are within 30 miles of the city. Dr. Morgan said that Indianapolis consumes a superior grade of milk, Although. the state regulations require milk of 3.25 per cent butterfat content, more than 85 per cent of the Indianapolis milk is 38 per cent or more butterfat content, Pr. Morgan said. >

Raw Milk Taste No Betler

The use of untested milk by cone sumers lies somewhat in the com mon error that raw milk tastes better than ‘pasteurized milk, Dr. Morgan said. aati In the years 1912 to 1916 there were three virulent milk-born epi demics, but since 1916, when the pasteurization law was passed by the City Council, there have been none, Dr. Morgan said. : “We mean to stamp out unnecesse ary deaths from polluted milk,” he
