In Harmony
CONVENTION• HALL, Chicago (iP) Republicans surged in hard-won harmony
into their national convention area last night for the climactic moment of nominating Vice
President Richard M. Nixon as their man to lead a nation in a trembling, turbulent world.
Nixon stood out alone, with nothing more than a token challenge of presidential
nomination in the offing.
Dead certain 'of his own future with the party, the vice president named four men
Dior Orders
Sock Look
For Winter
PARIS (/P) Yves Saint
Laurent, Dior's young design
er, decreed bared knees and
back-to-the-sack for the ladies'
fall and winter wardrobe.
He displayed a skirt yesterday
that starts at the mid-hip and ends
at mid-knee and really amounts
to no more than a flounce.
Bustlines and wai4lines were
lost, but legs and knees stayed in
the picture. Jackets Or long middy
tops account for a good two-thirds
of the length of the new sihouctte,
and they're sacky as all get out.
The puffy little skirts, which
make up the rest of the outline,
curve in at the hem to approxi
mate an elongated melon or egg
shape.
The latter term had some fash
ion writers cacklinit about "the
V g that Dior laid." But since
buyers have not yet seen the
show, the comment that counts is
still to come.
France-Soir, the first Paris
new- Taper to catch the news from
Dior. came out with the startled
headline: "Dior launches the half
naked knee."
One experienced American
fashion expert admitted she
didn't like it. But in thoughtful
effort to be fair, she wont on to
describe the new shape, as "the
nouvelle vogue's interpretation
of what the flapper looked like."
Few thought that other design
er y llO show akirts just below
the knee, arc' in any danger of
being left high and city by Saint
Laurent. Thal is a big change
from the day.:; when Dior was ab
solute dictator and the rest scram
bled to get in line.
Daytnne colors wernt dark and
sobor, brightening up a hit for the
evening, There .were (loyaesque
flowing full-length tents of lace,
chiffon and crepe, and a whole
group of ''chateau clothes" fit
only for those 'A '1 lo are at home
in a castle. Among these were
long full culotte skirls, split only
in the front into bang}• trousers,

Surge Into Convention
to Nominate VP Nixon
as front runners for nomination
to second place on his ticket, al
though he said other men would
be considered.
Henry Cabot Lodge, who talks :
tough to the Russians as U.S. am
bassador to the United Nations,:
headed the list, although Nixon!
specified no priority.
On it, too, were: Sen. Thruston
B. Morton of Kentucky, the Re
publican national chairman; Rep.,
Walter H. Judd of Minnesota, • who:
sparked fire with his keynote;
speech to the convention Monday;!
and Secretary of the Treasury)
Robert B. Anderson; a Texas!
'Democrat who was converted into;
an Eisenhower Republican eight]
years ago.
Nixon told a news conference
this quartet and other possi
bilities would be discussed with
party leaders at a meeting in
his hotel suite following last
night's convention session.
In saying other names would be l
considered, Nixon mentioned Sec--;
retary of Labor .James P. Mitchell..
Rep. Gerald Ford of Michigan,',
Secretary of the Interior Fred A.
Seaton, and Rep. John Byrnes of,
Wisconsin.
And he said this was not a com
plete list.
Whoever gets the final nod,
the choice will be Nixon's, for
a man to stand beside him in
what he says will be one of the
closest, hardest election battles
of the century.
To a degree probably unparal
leled in history for a man seeking
the political summit for the first
time. Nixon had a firm, con-
Itrolling grip on his party and its
:convention.
Occasional murmurs of discord
over the platform and'procedures
still echoed through Republican
ranks. But they were as few as
they were ineffective.
Nixon had carved the plat
form to his liking in prepara
f; on for its adoption at last
night's convention session.
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of
New York, the one man who
might have given Nixon a run for
the nomination. threw his arm
around the vice president's shoul
der and pledged his "all the way"
support of the Nixon cause.
Ile confidently told a crowd
gathered around them: "He's
going to win with New York State
in the fall." It was the first time
he had predicted Nixon could
carry the Empire State.
Nixon acknowledged that New
York. with the biggest electoral

Scott Says
VP Choice
To Be Lodge
CHICAGO (1P) Pennsylva
nia's 70-vote Republican conven
tion delegation was told yester
day that Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S.
ambassador to the United Na
tions, is the GOP's most likely
candidate for vice president.
"It looks like Vice President
Richard M. Nixon is going to in
dicate Lodge is his choice as a
running -mate," said Sen. Hugh
Scott, Delegation chairman, fol
lowing a closed caucus of the
Pennsylvanhins.
The statement came as the dele
gation prepared to cast its entire
70 votes for Nixon for president.
That included Harold E. Stassen,
former Minnesota governor, who
previously had opposed Nixon for
the presidency. Stassen is a Phila
delphia delegate.
Scott said he did not urge the
delegation to back Lodge, but
rather "I reported to the group
that all indications indicated the
choice of Lodge for the post."
"I have a very strong admira
tion for Lodge." said Scott. "He
will help make the ticket strong."
The delegates also endorsed the
proposed GOP platform. including
a Nixon-backed civil rights plank.
However, members of the dele
gation questioned what they con
sidered to be a failure to include
specific mention of federal aid for
depressed areas.
Pennsylvania congressmen had
backed passage of a 180-million
dollar distressed areas bill earlier
this year, but President Lisenhow
vetoed it.

Kennedy Awaits
GOP Nomination
HYANNIS PORT, Mass. (iP)
Sen. John F. Kennedy relaxed at
his summer home yesterday while
waiting for the Republicans to
make it official—that Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon will be his
opponent for the presidency.
The Democratic nominee for the
White House gave no public indi
cation whether he would have an
immediate statement on the deci
sions of the GOP convention in
Chicago on its nominee and plat
form.
Kennedy watched the rival par
t3r's convention proceedings on
television.
The swarm of tourists attempt
ing to catch a glimpse of Kennedy
or at least his white frame home
in this Cape Cod resort became
so great that police cracked down.
