Hears Son Complimented
During a 10-minute James’ address, Mrs. shook hands with countless gates and heard compliments about her son. Two bands. one from Indianapolis and another from a colony near Bridgeport, S. D., were blaring martiai airs when Mrs. Roosevelt and her son entered. The audience arose as one with a mighty cheer. As the distinguished speakers approached the rostrum, the most prominent decoration before was a giant picture of the President. Nearby was the delegation’s huge banner for the 1939 convention. The Indiana delegation—elected delegates—were seated in the center of the hall. Back of them members of the Indiana club. During the address by Roosevelt, Mrs, Townsend, wife of the Governor, sat beside Mrs, Roosevelt. The First Ladv had changed from her traveling suit to combination brown and lace dress, panama hat and black shoes. James was in a double-breasted blue suit. James Roosevelt declared thai the Democratic Party of today sees and serves the nation 2s a whole . . . it sees and serves that whole nation in the light of modern times—of 1937, not of 1837." He characterized his father's ministration as “the frankest ministration Washington has seen.” Although we have pelled to spend more any Administration party, can take pride in the fact that that there have been no favored cliques, no side doors, no little green houses, no and no Teapot Domes,” he said. The President's son got his biggest of a series of cheers when he referred to Associate saying: “I have always liked realism of the newest and voungest

member of the Supreme Court of the
United States.” Party Youth Hailed
He declared that the “downfall of the Republican party . was due to its devotion to a special interest —the special interest of the people it the top.”
“Our party alone,” he continued, has had the essential faith in democratic government to be able prove that democracy can get done efficiently and energetically the things that modern people demand government should get for them.” “It is our job this country the morrow's world.” Governor Townsend, dress of welcome after tion by Rabbi reminded the session of Indiana's support for the President's social program. He hailed the Democratic Party as one embodying the philosophy of youth. He charged that during an off-election year the Republicans had seized upon the labor situation and the Administration's efforts to liberalize the Supreme Court as a means of instilling fear into the people. Shortly after calling the convention to order, President Frank Wickhem named the temporary
