mm HEADS TO DEMAND ACTION BY DEMOCRATS Fifteen Proposals Offered at Chicago Will Be Presented to Frisco Platform Committee. By WILLIAM G. SHEPHERD. Written Kiprrnaly for (be International Service. San Francisco, Cal., June 28. Into the sunshine of California, out of the wetness of Montreal, has come Samuel Gompers and a dele gation of masters of labor, fresh from the Canadian convention of American labor. This is how they stand in American politics with their 3,000,000 votes, at the opening of the democratic convention: ? The republican convention in Chi cago threw them down. They make no bones about it. Out of IS pro posals which Gompers made to the platform committee only one item a plank against convict-made goods entering into interstate commerce was accepted.

How many of these suggestions the union leaders actually believe a po litical party can accept, it is not known, but the fact remains that Gompers himself, together with William Green, secretary of the mine workers, and Matthew Woll of the supreme labor council, are here to demand that the democrats accept every item of the IS. The labor situation is critical, say the leaders. It may not seem at this moment, during the excitenui i .' tlie convention, a supreme issue, but during the struggle of the campaign between the republican and the democratic candidates it may pos sibly appear a paramount question. That the labor men are prepared to be turned down by the democrats was apparent today. They are ready for it, though they appear to believe thai turn down is out of the question, they have heard enough politics to appear to expect what you know you can't get.

Tin's is women's day in convention circles 'All San Francisco is standing amazed at the strength and the num ber of women delegates and alter nates. From all over the country they have come, and from many of the states where women do not vote, great committees of women workers and visitors and suggestors and hinters have arrived. The hotel cor ridors are jammed with women New York, Chicago, Montana, Colo rado, Texas, Tennessee, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Virginia and the state of Maine they all sit down together for breakfast every morning at great tables arranged especially for them in one of the big hotels. The tables are gay with flowers after the prodi gal California fashion, and the visit ing women have all caught the Cali fornia fad of wearing flowers in the belt, or pinned somewhere to the waist. So it is a gay holiday looking, friendly assemblage Talk About Politics.' After breakfast they divide into little croups and talk committees and planks and program, quite as if they' had been going to conventions ail their lives, but by noon they' are all divided up into separate parties and being entertained at lavish lunch eons and gay little teas and. astonish ing motor trips over the mountains and down by the sea these San Franciscans think nothing of a 150 miles across the mountains and back again by moonlight after dinner. There was a luncheon for 900 women across the bay bushels of roses, delivery trucks full of lilies, huge baskets twice as big as clothes baskets tied up with gor geous ribbons and heaped high with peaches and apricots and black cher lies'and ripe figs, purple and white and black. 1 Fern trees and great garlands of giant mignonette and amazing ranunculas they call it a buttercup back east. It is as big as a good sized luncheon plate here and every, color in the rainbow. Oh, they're determined to do the thing in the regular California style, these Cali fornia women, and it seems to me that women from the rest of the country are still a little bit dazed by Ohio Delegates Fail To Agree on Wet Plank San Francisco, June 28. There will be no "wet" plank in the derrto- cratic platform, so far as the Cpx delegation of Ohio are concerned, it was believed, following a storrny caucus of the' opinion of delegates and alternates. Sentiment on the liquor question was evenly divided and it was only after two hours of hopeless debate that the caucus adjourned and left the "wet" plank entirely in the" hands of Senator Pomerene, member of the committee on resolutions.

Anti-Strike Clause Causes Near Split Among Demo Women By DAVID M. CHURCH, International New Service Staff Correspondent. San Francisco, Cal., June 28. The liberal labor plank of the democratic women today threatened to go ashore on the shoals of anti-strike lceislation. A proposal from Mrs. Kellogg Fairbanks of Chicago that the labor plank endorsed by the women should incorporate a declaration against anti-strike legislation met with stiff opposition from Mrs. Maude Murray Miller, assistant na tional committeewoman from Ohio, and Helen Grenwell, a delegate from Colorado. Mrs. Miller based her op position to any plank against anti strike legislation on the ground that such a declaration was too broad. Mrs. Grenwell declared too much liberality -in the labor plank will lead to a plank in favor' of class legislation. For the time being, the women de cided to stand upon their plank which favors collective bargaining and the eight-hour day, although Mrs. Fairbanks will continue her ef forts to secure more liberal views in the platform.' If not supported by the women as whole it is' un derstood Airs Fairbanks will go be fore the resolution committee as an individual to ask for a declaration against anti-strike-legislation Many of the women in Siam wear their, finger nails, very long and have them tipped with silver,; , "Win Nebraska Girl Returns From Service in Europe If a troop of French cavalry Ctuld venture out on the bandit in fested road between the Cilicinn towns of Tarsus and Mcrsine, Miss Ina E.
