THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JUNE ' 12, 1920. LOWDEN PLACED IMMMIMJITIMI 111 iiuitimftiiun nv nnnrunrnn of nuucriDcnu Illinois Governor Is Second Man to Be Presented for Consideration of Republi can Delegates. Coliseum, June 11. Following; his Introduction by Senator Lodge, Congressman William Rrtdenberg of East St. Louis, placed the name of Governor F. O. Lowden of Illi nois before the convention as a candidate-. He said: "At no time since birth of the republican party has there been greater need foj: the exercise of calm, deliberate and dispassionate judgment in the selection of a standard bearer than there is today. A spirit of rebellious unrest is abroad in the land. On all sides are heard inurmurings of discon tent. TH times are pregnant with te prophecy of gloom and despair. Conscience has disappeared and the splendid optimism of former days, once our proudest national asset, has given way to an ever-present fear of impending disaster. "Three score years ago, 'at a time when the passions of men were stirred to the depths when the very perpetuity of government of the peo ple, by the people and for the people was trembling in the balance, the na tion turned for leadership to the state of Illinois. Here on the brond nd fertile prairies was found a man f the people, a leader of leaders, the potheosis of freedom's holy light, our Lincoln, inc world s iincuiu. "Grandly, nobly, sublimely, he met the test. Illinois Ready Again. "Illinois stands r?ady in 1920 to consecrate to the service of the re public another of her great sons, one whose brilliant record of public and private achievement is the very best and surest guarantee that under Lis leadership our beloved country will be raised ffom the obloquy into which it has fallen and again placed on the road that leads to national honor and national glory. "He stands for law and order and constitutional government. ' Of fine legal mind and training, with botri legislative and executive experience, lie believes in re-establishing the powers and prerogatives of everv branch of the federal government. And he is unalterately opposed to executive usurpation of any execu tive dr judicial function. Is Roosevelt Type. "He is In full accord with the true spirit of America, which still prefers the nationalism of Theodore Roosevelt to the internationalism of Woodrow Wilson. He believes that the sovereignty of the United States must be kept free and in violable from European influence or dictation and that while maintain ing a friendly attitude towards all nations, we owe it to those who have gone before and to those who are to follow us to enter into part nership with none. "The best constructive ability of our great conservative party must be utilized in the solution of to- av's problems. "Illinois has such a man. "We present the patriotic gover nor of a patriotic state, Frank Orren Lowden. Thompson and Ettelson Resign as Delegates Chicago, June 11. Mayor Thomp ein of Chicago and Samuel 7. Ettelson of Chicago resigned as delegates-at-large for Illinois Fri day. They gave as their reason that the state convention had instructed them to vote for Governof Lowden, and said they believed that if Gov ernor Lowden's campaign expenses had been known at the time, neither the primary nor the state conven tion would have endorsed him. iovemor ofK ansas. Himself Candidate, Nominates Gen. Wood WOOD'S SERVICE FITS 111 TO BE NATION'S CHIEF Governor Allen Cites General's Record as Man of Wisdom and Ability, In Nominat ing Speech. Chicago, June 10. Described as the "outstanding candidate in the minds of the whole people," Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood was formally nominated by Gov. Henry J. Allen of Kansas for the republican presi dential nomination. "A plain, blunt man with a blunt belief in facts," Governor Allen said of General Wood, "lie Is today the best known American. "When the great war broke upon America it found that Leonard Wood had been preparing. We beard from him no platitudes aboat '1,000,000 men springing to arms over night.' On his own initiative he established the Plattsburg train ing camps, created the first line of the national defense and gave to the thousands of young American men a new definition of loyalty, a new opportunity for service a new vision oi their national obligation. "We saw him accepting whatever task was given into his hands with the cheerful obedience of those who submerge self in service. In our state he trained many of our splen did young men, inspiring them with his spirit, fashioning them into the Eighty-ninth division. "We watched him go away to the point of embarkation and then at the last moment we read with con sternation that his great desire to take his division to the field was not to be granted. Is No Whimperer. "This man was no whimperer. Not an hour was lost in sulking. Not a word was wasted in criticism. Not rn instant spent in mourning over his personal disappointment. We see him coming back to train another division. 'If we can,' he said, 'We'll make it even better than the one with which I had hoped to serve in France.' "As president he will not seek to create for himself a neutral . back ground out of mediocre men. The tiatien will have that to which the people are entitled in its councils the united brain power of real lead ers. "With full appreciation of the challenege of the hour, I present the name of the man who fits the hour Leonard Wood." Bee Want Ads Are Business Boosters. Night Sessions Held by v Party Leaders Expected To Unite Delegates Today Impassioned Oratory of Nominating Speeches, Al - though Couched in Good English, Was Tiresome To the Suffering Delegates in he Furnace Heal Of the Convention Hall Upon Result of Night Sessions May Hinge Candidates' Fate. By E. C. SNYDER, IVatMnrton t'ormpondnt of The Be. Convention Hall, Chicago, June 11. (Special Telegram.) The next president will be made in the small hours of the morning In some small room, where a few real simon pure leaders are gathered, was a state ment Harry Daugherty, campaign manager for Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, made some time before the presidential primaries in the Buckeye state. The statmcnt shocked some of the progressive republicans, but never theless there was a decided element of the intensely practical about the suggestion and it is wholly within the probabilities the leaders will get together between the time the con vention adjourned and when it will meet in the morning, to name the next president. Speeches Get Tiresome. For nearly eight hours the dele gates and the guests of the conven tion listened to impassioned oratory. To be honest, some of the nominat ing speeches were splendid, well couched in good English, in good form and very correct, according to the best examples of presidential addresses, but some were long, tire some, prolix and in the furnaee heat of the convention hall, they got on the nerves of the delegates and in one instance the speaker ac tually hurt the feelings of he dele gates by imputing to them things which the galleries were guilty of doing in demanding the name of the gentleman he proposed to present, while he told in stirring language the backing his candidate had from the bankers of the state and the powerful influence of every great publisher. Tonight the delegates are visiting the several headquarters with a view r.f learning the inside of the situa tion, a situation most decidedly in teresting and wholly possible to be captured by some low man, as dis closed in today's balloting. Thinks Johnson Eliminated. Hiram Johnson, I should sav. is eliminated from the equation. Wood has a chance and so has Lowden, but what will be done toward mak ing a candidate who will measure up to the standards laid down by the thoughtful men of the party will not be known until the vote is taken tomorrow. The midnight confer ences of this night will determine. The suggestion of Governor Nfc Kelvie for the second place on the ticket has met with a great deal of favor. Washington state delegates having told a member of-the Nebras ka delegation, who is wholeheartedly behind the governor on the' theory that he has done more to boost the state than any man in a decade, that they would gladly support him if Nebraska thought seriously of pre senting him as a candidate for vice president. Iowa, too, showed a neighborly' interest as did a num ber of the Illinois delegates, but they can do nothing until the big job has been filled. There are one or two influential members of the Nebraska delega tion who do not look upon the Mc Kelvie boom for second place on the ticket with favor and unless the gov ernor can have the. united support of the delegation his friends will put a quietus on the second place boost.

Gould Dietz had an unusual thingliappen to him today. Gould was born in Ana mosa, la., and the first job he had was as deputy postmaster under William V. Fish. Today Mr. Fish came into the Nebraska headquar ters to call on Mr. Dittz, his deputy postmaster in 1880, and the meeting between the two was a positive de light. - L. D. Richards of Fremont, chair man of the Nebraska delegation, who is a very old friend of Mrs. Fred Upham, wife of the treasuref of the national committee, whom he knew when a girl in Cedar Rapids, la., was the honor guest in Mrs. Up ham's box at the convention. Gould Dietz was charged by Fred Upham to produce Mr. Richards. A number of the members of the house were present in the conven tion, including Dr. Fess, chairman of the congressional committee; Nicw Longworth, Frank Mondell cf Wyoming and Addison Smith of Idaho. Sounds Warning That Natural Gas Supply Is Dwindling Rapidly Chicago Tribune-Omaha Dee Leased Wire. Washington, June 11. Not only is the oil situation a matter of seri ous consideration, but the supply of natural gas is also dwindling in an alarming manner. This was stateu' Friday by Dr. Frederick G. Cottrell, director of the bureau of mines, in an address at a conference of Nat ural Gas Conservation, called by Secretary of the Interior Payne and attended by representatives of a number of states which are vitally interested in the question. Dr. Cottrell declared that the pro duction of gas in the past year has been accompanied by "incredible waste and folly." He said that the exhaustion of the supply would be a calamity. Leading Candidates Spend Entire Day at Their Headquarters Chicago, June 11. While the speeches were being made at the Coliseum today the leading candi dates for presidential nomination were in the seclusion of their hotel rooms, but all. were in instant touch by telephone with the convention hall. Senator Johnson was closeted with several of his advisers at his headquarters. Gen. Wood arrived in the city i irom rori anenaan ana canea about him the men who were to direct the fight on the floor of the convention. After they had gone to the convention the general held to his rooms. Governor Lowden used the early hours of the day for conferences with his chiefs and then also ad journed to his apartments to await reports of the convention's happen ings. As far as ascertained, none of the announced candidates, with the ex ception of Governor Sproul of Pennsylvania, visited the Coliseum during the day. Governor Sproul appeared there before the conven tion, but returned to his hotel. Receivers Are Appointed For N. Y. Silk Company New York, June 11.
