By LEOLA ALLARD.

San Francisco. July 7. Elated or
disappointed, the democratic women
made a grand rush this morning for
the Cox bandwagon. Even Mrs
Horden llarrinian, whose first choice
was Mr. McAdoo, second, Mr. Cum
mings: third, Mr. Davis, tok off
her lawyers' badges Monday and
actually stood in the organ loft wav
ing a flag and shouting for Cox
In the parlor of her rooms at the
Falacc hotel last night she said
"Isn't it ghastly." In the conven
tion this morning she said, "We
will all be for' Mr. Cox. We made
a good fight for Mr. McAdoo, but
we didn't make it. It was a great
fight."
And the divorce , that yesterday
was the subject of continuous con
versation is being hidden in the
closet in the hope that the demo-
" Crats will be allowed toi forget it. "A
great moral issue," the women called
yesterday. Today Miss Mary .
; Foy. western manager of the demo
,i cratic women's campaign, cautioned
;j the women gathered in the lobby of
the Falace hotel. '."Forget it. Dotj't
V, talk about tnr divorce. Xhe people
;j insult our intelligence who expect
ti us to take up such a small thing and
. make an issue of it. The trouble is."
said Miss Foy, "the women wanted
!' another candidate like Woodrow
" Wilson. There is only one man like
" that. Cox was the convention choice.
With us, it shall be Cox. We will
JJ all stand behind him."
"Of course," said Mrs. George E.
I Sevey of Chicago, "Ohio, my native
JJ. state, is the pivocal state in politics
Mr. Cox stands high in his com
!! nuinity. I am a' Catholic, but I do
" ' not criticize Mr. Cox because of the
divorce they are trying to use against.
Jl him. There are times "
'J "Stop, don't make any such state
I! - ment. Forget it," instructed- Miss
I; Foy and Mrs. Ida McGlone Gibson,
' Calmer woman manager, shook her
''head at Mrs. Sevey. "You aren't
J ready to make any statement," she
told her, and-'' the handsome Mrs.
' Sevcy, who needs no instructions, but
' ; who knows what she wants to say
! "and has rare judgment in the niat
I! ter of saying it, went bravely ahead,
;j 'Mvhen the others tired of protesting:
! .' ' Mr. Cox carried his state against
JJ J Mr. Harding twice. He will carry
t out the policies of the present admin
.) ( Oration. He is vote-tested and he
' ' can finish ahead in this race. I'm
I v certain of it."
', ' Maud Cain Taylor of Chicago.
JJ -who has not taken sides, but done
It rational work for all women, says:
"Cox is popular in his state and is
1 well thought of. The divorce will
not be mentioned nor will it take out
ote .away from him. We are going
:r be big in this campaign. Cox was
i good governor and he will be a
ood president."
This Jclegram to Governor Cox
was sent today by Mrs. George Bass,
who has been accused of wanting
each candidate in his turn, but or
whom none knew anything regardijiG
political choice except that she-was
not for Mc'Adoo:
' "Sincere congratulations. All the
democratic women will rally to you
and the platform. I look confidently
for success in November.
(Signed) "MRS. GEORGE BASS,
"Chairman Woman's Bureau,
"Democratic National Committee."
Antonoitte Funks, whose receptior.
room substitute for McAdoo head
quarters brought assistance but not
success, looks crestfallen and an
nounced haughtily:
"I doVt know anything about
what's going to happeri. No I don't
know what the women will do, I am
jjiot in touch with them."

f Washington, July 7. Franklin
Delano Roosevelt has served as as
sistant secretary of the navy for
more than seven years, the full
period of President Wilson's admin
istration. He handled important
c'uties during the war period, but
managed to escape from most of he
c.ntroversies in which his chief,
Secretary of the Navy Daniels, was
involved. Mr. Roosevelt went
abroad during the war and was in
first-hand touch with naval opera
tions. Mr. Roosevelt was born in Hyde
Park, Duchess 'county, N. Y.,
on January 8, 1882, and thus is 38
years of age. He retains a youth
ful appearance. His parents were
James and Sarah Delano Roosevfl''
His collegiate education was ob
tained at Harvard, where he was
graduated in 1904. A year later he
was married to Anna Eleanor
Roosevelt f New York.
After studying law Mr. Roosevelt
was admitted to the bar in 1907. He
at once became associated with the

1910 until his appointment as as

REPUBLICANS TO
MAKE COVENANT
LEADING ISSUE
Frown on Any Attempt to
Introduce "Wet" or "Dry"
Question Into G. 0. P.
Campaign.
By D. F. SULLIVAN.
( hicojo Tribune-Omaha life Leaned Wire.
Chcago, July 7. Republican lead
ers, meeting in the city Tuesday in
conference with Will H. , Hays,
chairman of the republican nation
al committee, decided to make the
league of nations the "paramount is
sue" of the campaign of 1920. As
a secondary issue they will present
an arraignment of "democratic in
efficiency and wastefulness in war
and peace." S
At the same lime they decided
to frown on any attempt to introduce
the "wet" and "dry" question into
the national campaign or to make
the personality of the candidates a
prominent factor,
- Other decisions of importance re
sulting from the conferences were:
Chicago is to be made the prin
cipal headquarters of the party and
"from the Alleghenies to the Pa
cific, coast" the principal battle
ground.
The republican national commit
tee and the republican senatorial antf
congressional committees will work
hand in hand, each enjoying inde
pendence, but at the same time co
operating to the fullest extent.

BAKER PLEASED
WITH SELECTION
OF DEMOCRATS
Secretary of War Praises Gov
ernor Cox President Wil
son Sends Message of
Congratulation.
Washington, July ".President
Wilson got word of the nomination
of Governor Cox at 8 o'clock Wed
nesday morning and immediately
wrote his message of congratulation
on an office scratch pad with pencil.
It was sent to the executive offices
and expedited to the party nominee.
Secretary Raker sent this message
to Governor t'ox:
"Accept my hearty congratulations
and all the suppprt I can give in the
campaign."
At the same time Secretary Baker
issued the following statement: 1 1
"In his three-year terms as gov
ernor of Ohio, Governor Cox has
demonstrated his great executive
ability and his forward-looking and
aggressive democracy. He is fear
less and high-minded. During the
war hr put all the resources of his
office and his personal talents into
the struggle and stood unwavering
ly with those who were making and
keeping America ready to do her
great task. The nomination will be
received with joy and pride in Ohio
and the country will find him an ag
gressive democrat with a record of
achievement."
With the virtual .end of the conven
tion talk of the president taking a
long rest, away from Washington,
was revived. Those closest to the
president, however, say he is find
ing it quite comfortable at the White
House and that he much prefers to
remain there.

15 CENTS A GALLON
New Invention Makes Fords
Run 34 Miles on Gallon of
Gasoline Other Cars Show
Proportionate Savings.
A new carburetor which cuts
down the gasoline consumption of
any motor, including the Ford, and
reduces gasoline bills from one
third to one-half, is the proud
achievement of the Air Friction Car
buretor Co., 431 Madison St., Day
ton, Ohio. This remarkable inven
tion not only increases the power of
all motors from 30 to 60 per cent,
but enables everyone to run slow on
higrh ear. With it you can use the
very cheapest grade of gasoline or
half gasoline and half Wrosenjo and
still get more power and more mile
age than you now get from the high
est test gasoline. Many Ford
owners say they now get as high as
45 or 50 miles to a gallon of gaso
line. So sure are the manufactur
ers of the immense saving their new
carburetor will make that they of
fer to send it on 30 days' trial to
every car owner. As it can be put
on or taken off in a few minutes by
anyone, all readers who want to
try it should send their name, ad
dress and make of car to the manu
facturers at once. They also want
local agents, to whom they offer ex
ceptionally large profits. Write
them today.
