Republicans Aim to Substitute

OPPOSES PENROSE PLAN
By tho Associated Press
Washington, June 30. The Repub
lican presidential campaign will be based
"on an appeal to restore party govern
ment ns a constitutional substitute for
personal government," Senator Hard
ing announced today after a conference
with Calvin Conlidge, his running mate,
and National Chairman Will H. Ilavs.
I ,At itho;8ametjma, Gpvcrqor. Coolidge

there -must be
a" "return of public
opinion toward
a self-control by the
people,' toward a great and overmaster

Senator Harding's statement said:
"Governor Coolidgo breakfasted with
mo this morning and wo have agreed
that we will base tho campaign on an
appeal to restore party government as
constitutional substitute for personal
government.
Vlco Presidential Aid Needed
"The governor and I have each served
as lieutenant governor in our state, nnd
wo both hnve learned from experience
how possible It is for n second official
in n stato to be n helpful part in a
party administration. I think the Vlco
President should be more than n mere
substitute in waiting.
"In re-establishing co-ordinntion be
tween tho executive office and the Sen
ate, the Vice President can and ought
to play n big part, and I have been
telling Governor Coolidgo how much I
wish him to bo not only n participant
in tho campaign, but also how much I
wish him to bo n helpful part of n He
publican administration.
"The country needs tho counsel nnd

Governor Coolidgc's statement fol
lqws: "I am hero to co-operate with my as

"Of courso, tho government will en

AMONG DELEGATES
Democratic Factions Working
to Bring on Deadlock at
San Francisco
BRYAN IS RELIED UPON
TO PROLONG BALLOTING
President's Son-in-Law Under
Big Handicap of Being
Called "Crown Prince"
By CLINTON W. GILBERT
Corvrtoht, 1010, lv PutiUo Ledacr Co,
San Francisco, Juno 30. An early
ballot will probably tell whether Mr.
McAdoo can bo nomlnnted or not. Mr.
McAdoo's supporters claim a majorjty
of tho convention for their candidate
on tho third ballot nnd the two-thirds
majority ncccsary to rlomlnnto soon
nftcr that. If they don't get tho ma
jority on nn early bnllot tho conven
tion will probably bo deadlocked.
Today appears to bo the critical day
with tho McAdoo candidacy. Either
tho delegations will make up their
minds to ignore the crown prince Issue
today or they will begin to consider it
so seriously that McAdoo's prospects
will wane.
Various forces of tho convention want
n deadlock. Tho Palmer men want n
deadlock and count upon Bryan to help
them. Bryan wants a deadlock, though
It is not clear that he has nny can
didate in the event of one. Tho stnto
bosses seek a deadlock, though they are
watching each other for fear some
of them will gain the advantage over
the other by being tho first to go over
to McAdoo. ''
atch MurphyLlke Hawk
' For the purpose of keeping Boss
Taggart, of Indiana, and the Illinois
group of leaders anxious the McAdoo
people keep putting out the suggestion
that Boss Murphy, of New York, is
flirting with McAdoo. All his fellow
bosses watch Murphy like a hawk. They
want to beat him to it if there is to
be any drift to McAdoo.
If McAdoo is not nominated it will
be because ho beat himself by his own
hesitation nnd by tho attention he has
called to the crown prince issue through
his own shilly-6hallying, Neither the
state bosses nor Mr. Bryan lmo any
one to beat him with. They show no
capacity to get together. Tbey have no
real program except to seek n dead
lock and leave what happens nftcr that
on the knees of the gods. Meanwhile
they watch each other keenly for fear
of a rush to the bandwagon in' which
they may bo left behind.
Burleson's Position
It is a queer bandwagon, the Mc
Adoo bandwagon. Postmaster General
Burleson 13 on the front seal of it and
everybody clso would like to throw him
out of it. Tho bad taste of a Wilson
cabinet member in sitting conspicu
ously in a bandwagon in which rides
tho "disinherited son-in-law" ! Burle
son is crabbing the game, everybody
complains, while- Burleson's friends
say: "Burleson is in an awkward po
sition. Ho was the original McAdoo
man. Yet Wilson has made it almost
Impossible to norainato McAdoo."
Mr. Burleson is very damaging to
tho McAdoo propaganda, which is that
the Whlto Houso family Is an estranged
famiiy, Mr. Burleson, of AVilsou's of-
..... ,(, In.lcfa
tlciai family, insists on being openly

"' .,, .......
disconcerting. Mr. Burleson is tho
I most unwelcome man in San Francisco,
lie is as popular with Jouctt Shouse
j and Arthur Mullen as is a nullifying
reservation nt the White House.
Mr. McAdoo may wiu lu spite of Mr.
Burleson's bad judgment in crossing
from one side to tho other of tho es
tranged home. Ho may win by de
fault. He is in tho leud iu spite of
the reaction which has set In against his
candidacy, for tho reaction ogaiust tho
McAdoo candidacy did set in today. To
mtet it tho McAdoo promoters are
making their greatest efforts. A big
dmc has been begun. Organizers nre
circulating, especially women organizers
who participated in tho Liberty Loan
campaigns. The McAdoo movement
hero Is remarkablo for tho activity of
tho women iu it, led by Mrs. Funk.
Two-thirds Not in Sight
The McAdoo leaders woke up yes
tcrdny to tho realization that tho two
thirds vote necessary to nominate their
candidate wna not in sight. Moreover,
ou the front page of ono of tho San
Francisco newspapers was displayed a
gicat hcare headline ubout the crown
prince. The prcconvention stampedo
had stopped. 1 ho utterly spontaneous
movement to McAdoo was not going to

The day was an ideal one for tenuis,
and the crowds present to witness the
finals in the singles set n record for
the Wimbledon courts.
Play began with Sbimidzu serving,
the Japanese player capturiug the first
game, with Tilden scoring only ono
point, Tilden speedily equnlized mat

ahead, sending the score to 4' to 1,
chiefly on account of Tilden's errors,
tho American frequently netting shots
on the back hand and occasionally out

playing excellently and erring seldom.

When the American came to tho net
Shimidzu several times scored with n

By tho Associated Press
San Francisco, June- 30, Senator
Owen, of Oklahoma; former Ambassa
dor Gerard nnd Nntional Chairman
Homer S. Cummings were placed In
nomination for the presidency during
the first hour of the Democratic Na
tional Convention's session today.
Cheers greeted the mention of their
names.
There was another last-mlnutc change
in the plans of the McAdoo forces which
finally precluded the presentation of his
name.
There were no changes respecting
tho placing of other candidates in nomi
nation, and tne prospects wcro tho con
vention woulfl go through in a continu
ous session today and get all the nomi
nating speeches out of the wny, leaving
tomorrow free for the balloting.
No Speech for McAdoo
Definite nnd final instructions came
from the Enst that McAdoo's name was
not formally to bo placed before the
convention. Burris Jenkins, of Kansas
City, who was prepared to make a-
nominating speech for McAdoo, revised..'
his plans again and decided to acctda
to the wishes of the McAdoo manasers.
' Although-no nominating speech wlir
be made for. McJ
cAdoo, his supporters j&lj&r
nd some estimate h&trp'vKy1
voto'for him, and i
on the first ballot at 300 or more.
Although it was said by administra
tion -chiefs that the subcommittees of
nine drafting the platform had virtually
agreed in nil important particulars, the
subcommittee after a brief conference
with the entire membersnip of tho
resolutions committee made a public
announcement that it was not ready to
report and would work in, secret until
7:30 tonight, when another report would
be made to the full committee.
Slightly "Moist" Plank
Meanwhile administration chiefs de
clared that n prohibition plank, "slightly
moist," had been agreed upon which
would preclude the adoption of William
Jennings Bryan's bone-dry plank. They
further predicted with finality that the
League of Nations plnnk would be
adopted "just ns Woodrow Wilson
wants it, without the dotting of an 'l' or
the crossing of a V."
Although the hour of meeting had
been advanced today to 11 o'clock (2 p.
m. Philadelphia time), and tho plan was
to get nn early start on the business of
nominating the delegates were not re
sponsio to the idea of n prompt early
start nnd were ns slow in arriving as
they had been on any other day.
A Cox band, garbed iu brilliant red
uniforms, vied with the convention band
in blnring out airs from a point in ono
of tho galleries.
Demonstration for Co
Chairman Robinson wanted to start
up, but was in n tolerant mood nnd let
the music co on. The glee club, which
accompanied the Cok delegation, joined
iu the music and entertained the con
vention. At 11:14 Chairman Robinson began
whacking the gnvel and called ou tho
delegates to get into their seats. "We're
ready," camo the shout from several
places on the floor.
The Cox delegation, however, insisted
on having n demonstration and a song
first, nud the convention wnitcd until
they got through. There wns a Cox
demonstration of short duration nt Us
conclusion.
"Dry" Fight in Convention
Meanwhile, tho platfrom framers got
word thnt William J. Bryan had no in
tention of abandoning his fight for a
"dry" plnnk nnd that he was more tie.
termined than ever to carry his fight
against any "slightly moist" plnnk on
to the iloor of the convention.
The convention band nnd tho Cor
band soon got into n contest. Tho con
vention band played "Over There" nnd
the Cox band cnine back with "Dixie,"
to the delight of the southern delegates.
The convention band countered with
"Hail, Hail, tho Gang's All Here,"
nnd the organist played n neutrul part,
joining iu with each. Electricity was
in the nir.
Suppressed expectation of a noisy and
spectacular day pervaded tho hall nnd
found its outlet lu songs nt times. When
tho C6x band started up "Old Ken
tucky Home," nnd tho rolling tones of
the great organ thundered into tho
chorus, the delegates joined in with a
mighty wave.
Chairman Robinson Patient
Whllo Chnirmnn Robinson stood pa
tiently at the speaker's desk waiting Cj
a chance to start up the convention, tSt
songfest went steadily on.- "Maryland,
My Maryland," aud other airs flowed
in a steady stream,
