morning:. If the marsnail at East Gary

ha4 notified them sooner, instead of

attempting to take the bandits with

PARTY STICKS TO MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

Undeterred by whispers of " bolts" by Hiram J6hnson. Senator Borah and Senator McCormick, the Ixwdn and Wood supporters swung again into action with statements and claims of strength. WOOD OVER SOn OS FIRST It was confidently asserted by managers for Gen. Wood that he would have considerably over 300 votes on the first ballot. Frank Hitchcock, floor manager of the Wood forces, declared that the result is already settled, although with his customary reticence he declined to give figures. . Along Michigan ave. during the night and early today, where the hundtos of u-Mesot-j and visitors milled aimlessly around w&ttinit the lrcak:njj of the platform deadlock, could be heard "straight from the feedbox" sterles which nominated nearly every candidate.

COMTCK ENCES WHISPKKEO There were whispered tales of se

cret conferences during the ight.

which 'settled-' the whole business.

John King, of "Connecticut. who sits at the Chicago end of the wire that runs to Boss Boies Penrose's bedside in Philadelphia, had just had a conversation with the "Old Master."' which put the final stamp of approval

on Philander C. Knox. That was one

of them. There were a dozen like it eiicept for the name cf the men who had been approved. Another was that a group of powerful steel men and bankers, who included Elber H. Gary, head of the steel corp6ration. and Leonard Replogle. had met in secret conference and turned thumbs down on the entire "big three"' of Johnson. Wood and Lowden and given their approval to Gov. William C. Sproul. of Pennsylvania. 0 BALLOTIG TODAY Still another was that the mysterious "powers" had realised their inability to stop the swing of Hiram Johnson and had unwillingly passed the word along to let the Californian to go over. Even though the party managers decided to go ahead with the nominating speech today there will be no balloting in all likelihood. There are enough speeches to occupy all of any one day. and anyhow the men who are uptown, trying to break the deadlock, want to be in on the balloting. Nine Hundred and some odd deelgates voting without the presence of some of

(Omtlnued from page one) the Fail investigating committee, which recommended the policing of ifekico onta there is a return to normal conditions in the country. New Mexican interests also re insisting that the. plnk include a declaration that the V. S. will recognize no government in Mexico which cannot give cofhplete assurance of protection to foreigners. Taxation Recommends tax laws, wfelch do not excessively mulct the consumer, the substitution of simple, for the present complex laws and the creation of tax board to simplify ineome tax procedure without legal recourse. Ths plank points out that the republican' will inherit a tremendous debt from the Wilson administration, including floating debt of more than $l.M.flod. and adds 'that "an early reduction in tha amount of needed revenue l not tft be expected' Economy Pledges the party to a "eafefully planned readjustment to a peace-time basis and a policy of rigid economy." The plank points out that "the executive departments and other establishments in Washington actually record an Increase subsequent to the armistice M 3.114 employee." The republican adherence to a real budget system then is re-affirmed. High cost of living Pledpes the party to honest money and sound finance and real battling against the further inflation of currency by a deflation of currency; prevention of excessive profits and an increased production, and by the encouragement of public and private economy and thrift.

the party leader it 6t to thlr liking-. Something might go over. And stilt another wti that "Wood would have to many votes on the first two ballotu that only'a political miracle could prevent enough uninstructed delegate swinging to his side to put him over. There was a story for every, candidate. One named his man and took his choice. But casting aside the claims and the camouflage and disregarding thw "Inside stones" that lurked on every side the. one hald fact remained that there are still more than 500 uninstructed delegates In this convention and which way they will turn no man can say with any dejrree of certainty.

The. unprejudiced observers here and there are few of them admit that regardless of what may happen tonight or tomorrow, today the . booms are stalemated. None of them are making pronounced or visible headway against the stonewall of independent voting strength. ltMs confidently predicted that they will make no such headway until two ballots have gone into political history. Then, it is expected the tide will begin to run in some direction. Hiram Johnson probably will be the

first man nominated in the speechmaking if the management decides to go aheid with the speeches today. Alabama. Arizona and Arkansas, all will pas?, having no candidate to offer, when the roll of states is called. This will put it up to Charles S. Wheeler, of San Francisco, wh.i will name Johnson. The states between California and Illinois on the alphabetical list ar expected to pass and Congressman "Billy"' Rodenburg will give the name of Illinois favorite son. Gov. Lowden. Kansas comes soon after and Gov. Henry J. Allen will throw the name of Gen. Wood into the fight. Thus, unless surprises are sprung, the first fnree narr.as offered will be those of the big three. Johnson. Lowden and Wood. The- herd of "dark horses" will follow as the states are called.

One of the effects of strikes is that it sometimes throws out of work men not directly involved in the strike, perhaps men in another city. When work slows down for the time being there is nothing like having a kept-up savings account. Not that it has to be drawn upon, but it gives a feeling of security and confidence that can't be described in writing. There's money in the bank for you if you really need it. A savings account that is added to regularly each pay day is always a friend in time of emergency. Are you building up a savings account?
