FRIDAY, JUNE 15, SIX Minneapolis Star wanted Senator Moses, of New Hampshire. The word filtered that Lead Medical Men Defends Women Office Holders HOOVER VICTORY PROSPERITY AID) BOWEN ASSERTS Nominee's Manager in Minnesota Is Back From Meeting With Herbert Hoover as the Republican nominee and the Republican party pledged to a favorable readjustment for agriculture, the northwest is entering upon a period of development "such as it has not had since the railroads were built," Ivan Bowen, Minnesota campaign manager for Hoover, said today upon his return from the Republican national convention in Kansas City. He predicted that Hoover will carry Minnesota in November by a majority equal to that given Calvin Coolldge. Mr. Bowen's statement follows: "The nomination of Mr.

Hoover is, ot course, exceedingly pleasing to his many friends in Minnesota who actively supported him. One of the results of the convention of greatest Interest to the northwest was the clarifying of the farm relief issue. The presentation by Senator Borah of Idaho and Congressman Fort in support of the agricultural plank of the platform carried away most of the remaining opposition to the nomination of Secretary Hoover. Pictures Bright Future "With the Republican party def initely committed by its platform to a favorable readjustment for agriculture, and with a candidate such as Herbert Hoover, who has a grasp of Is oH -IK I i sSR "iWM the New Hampshire senator would be i all richt so far as Hoover was con cerned. Then an Industrious peddling of the information was begun.

For a time it appeared that Moses had the best chance even though he was the individual most responsible for preventing a complete senatorial investigation of the power trust by his action in blocking the Walsh res olution. But finally this fact killed his boom off to the great disappointment of a coterie of young Kansas City lawyers and bankers who have essayed to enter the role of king makers and had assured Moses that he was over. Smoot, Mellon Impressed Senator Smoot and Secretary Mel lon had the final selection. Both admitted they had been very much impressed over last night's demon-' stration for Curtis. Especially they recalled that Oklahoma had boosted to the very end.

The Indian blood In the veins of the veteran solon has a strong appeal to the Indians and descendants of Indians in that state and the Republicans are hopeful of carrying the former Indian Territory next fall should Al Smith be nominated. The convention hall was very slow in filling up today. There was only a handful of delegates and spectators present when the time for meet ing arrived and as a result the for-mal proceedings met with delay. Roosebelt Hard Hit There were some peculiar developments when the word that Curtis was over reached the delegations. "The Little Colonel" Theodore Roose- velt, who has been much In evidence for four days hoping for the lightning to strike, gulped down half a dozen cups of water when he waa Informed that he was out of It.

Yet, as a matter of fact, had the New York delegation even expressed a wish that his name be considered he could have been shoved across. Colonel MacNIder was more pleased with the selection of Curtis than he would hace been with any other selection than his own and had no hesitancy in saying so. Franklin Fort of New Jersey, Ham ilton Fish of New York and a score of lesser lights also cheered for Curtis. Has Indian Blood Senator Curtis was on the convention floor as "the most American of any candidate ever nominated by thi convention," for the blood of the red man flows in his veins. He is part Indian, though the percentage of aboriginal heritage Is small.

He wa born at North Topeka, Jan. 25, 1860, and received a common school education. He studied In a law office, was admitted to the bar In '1881, and has practiced in Topeka ever since. He served as county attorney of Shawnee county from 1881 to 1888, and was elected to the fifty-third congress In 1893. He served continuously In congress thereafter until he resigned follow-Ing his election to the United States senate in 1907 to fill the unexpired term of Senator J.

R. Burton, who resigned. He was re-elected for two more terms of six year each. He has three chilren. His wife died in 1884.

Harris (left) of Chicago was chosen president-elect of the American Medical association, at a meeting of the house of delegates, governing body of the association held late yesterday.

The friends of Hanford MacNIder have buttonholed leader after leader and up until the Curtis statement was forthcoming believed they had an actual chance. Fuller Boom Blows I'p Just as a passing Indication that while the new Hoover machine is a real steam roller functioning perfect ly It might be told that early this morning, while the leaders were try. Ing to determine what wa best to be done somebody suggested that Governor Fuller, of Massachusetts, would fit nicely into the picture. The suggestion wa received with acclaim and a call was put in over the long distance telephone to Washington only to have a sarcastic newspaper correspondent recall that it was Ful ler who sent Vanzetl and Sacco to the electric chair. Just as good a suggestion followed when a determined movement wa in stituted to give the nomination to Senator Charles Deneen of Illinois.

He was described as regular and the rest until somebody profanely asked what Bill Thompson and his pang would do to help George Brennan this coming fall If Deneen, who smashed the Thompson machine, was to be rammed down their throats. Huddle Starts The scenes which followed the nom ination last night of Herbert Hoover were reminiscent of the conventions of past years. The leaders got busy In a series of formal and informal "huddles" to see what could be done about getting a vice presidential candidate who would satisfy. Mose Boom Killed A group of the younger generation of self-appointed leaders tried to get the Hoover residence In Washington on the phone. They had plenty of suggestions to offer but none of their call got through.

The veterans In the game, many of them the men who had refused to support Hoover until the last moment stampede commenced, also got busy.

Drolet, statistician of the New York tuberculosis and health association, declared In ad dressing the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Hennepin County Tuberculosis association at the Citizens' Aid building today. The successful fight against sickness has increased the average man's opportunity to produce wealth and thus repay society and the family by 45 per cent, Mr. Drolet said.

Increasing in Minneapolis Mr. Drolet, in his talk, "To the Health of Minneapolis," commented on the unusual susceptibility of peo ple to tuberculosis; the large percentage of advanced cases, and the fact that 1.200 to 1,500 new cases are reported annually In Minneapolis. "This ratio of three cases of tu berculosis to a death is practically twice the average known elsewhere," Dr. Drolet declared. 327 Deaths in City "Although there were 327 deaths in Minneapolis last year, including 31 at Glen Lake sanatorium, the average rate of those dying from the disease was 19 years, five years ago, and has now been raised to 38," he said.

"Although I cannot pretend to give advice on the local situation from long range, it does seem that there should now be equal concentration and energy spent on home care, study, of working candltlons, and In the organization of programs to prevent the somewhat unusual number of new cases recorded annually In your community." Infant Mortality Favorable Mr. Drolet summarized health conditions in Minneapolis, adding that the infant mortality recorii Is com-paratively favorable, but there needs to be more pre-natal work; the breakdown rate of tuberculosis Is too high, although the mortality has been brought under control; and there are now fewer children and more adults in the community, thus complicat ing the health program. Dr. LInsly R. Williams, managing director of the National Tuberculosis Association, was the chief speaker at the anniversary meeting.

He dis cussed accomplishment In the rast 25 years in fighting tuberculosis. LOWDEN STAND WORRIES G.O.P. (Continued from par ont) Lowden sent this message to the convention last night that was In the whooping progress of nominating Hoover "I have stated publicly that I do not want the nomination unless the Kepubllcan party was prepared fully and fairly to meet the agricultural problem. Farm Cause Holds Interest "I have waited upon no particular remedy but I have stated at all time that if there was a better method then the so-called equalization fee I would gladly accept it. 1 have urged, however, that It is the duty of the Republican party to find some way to rescue agriculture from the ruin that threatens it.

"This, In my Judgment, the committee by Its platform JU3t adopted has tailed to do. therefore, authorize the with- drawal of my name from the floor of the convention. "Though I cease to be a candidate my interest in the cause is In no way abated." Aid in Campaign Doubted It waa noted that Governor Low. den did not say that It was the Republican cause in which his Interest was "in no way abated." The in ference was left that his future in. terest, and more particularly his interest so far as the forthcoming election is concerned, centers around the agricultural "cause" rather than with the cause of his party.

In any event, it Is taken by party leader in Kansas City today that Governor Lowden is not exactly to take off his coat and work for the success of the party this year in the territory In which be admittedly is popular. The Hoover leaders today characterized Lowden'a attitude as that of a "bad loser" and as due to petulance. On the other hand, the defcatrll allies contended that the Illlnolsan had acted in the only way possible consistent with his dignity and known views in withdrawing from the contest and in the eml threat of D01tlnff' OF HOOVER CLIMAX (Continued from pas one) Hoover at his work at a desk, or in a mining office, or with the transit and chain.

Minnesota will be carried by Herbert Hoover in No. vember by a majority equal to that given Calvin Coolldge." Newton's Aid Cited The convention wound up In very good spirit, Mr. Bowen said, with most of the opposition to Hoover having disappeared.

"When the roll waa called for the; balloting on presidential nominee, five additional votes came over to Hoover in the Minnesota delegation, besides the six we had counted on," he said. "One of the leaders In the Hoover movement, and most active workers on his behalf at Kansas City, was Congressman Walter H. Newton of Minneapolis. Mr. Newton worked hand In hand with James W.

Landes Says "I was drawn from the aimost un tapped political reservoir of mature intelligent women who have raised families and are now free to serve the public." That's how Mrs. Bertha Landes, the woman who was mayor of Seattle from 1926 to '28, gave her "Who's Who" when she arrived In Minneapolis today. Mrs. Landes is here because she Is vitally interested In the proposed charter amendments Minneapolis voters will ballot upon Monday. "We middle-aged women, who have intelligently fulfilled the Job of wife and mother, are of a higher order of Intelligence than are most of the men who have been in politic all their lives," said Mrs.

Landes frankly. 'The ftancial rewards are so meager that politic can hardly hope to draw the same caliber of mascu line mind that goes into American business. The honors and the ability to hold a Job are so uncertain that politics rarely draw the masculine minds that are willing to go into a university's teaching staff. Assails Politicians "That Is why men politicians are too often either stupid or else shrewd men who are out for what can be gotten out of the game for themselves. The country has another possible source to draw the mature men and women who have made a success of one Job already, have retired from that Job, and are able to take on politics without depending on a political salary f-ra whole living.

Whether tl.e candidate has held down his last Job successfully should certainly be Investigated," went on Mrs. Landes humorously. "Now my record showed two well-raised grown children, an efficiently run household, and a satisfied husband. Was Voter Only "Up till the time vhen I went Into politics, my only political Job had been voting. I could not have held office when my son and daugh ter were ch ldren, and have made a success of them.

I am not saying that no one could. But my personal experience la that my home was an all-time Job for 24 years." Sirs.

Eschrnan. Following adjournment of the regular meeting, about B0 member remained to listen to a talk on the border dam controversy by E. Oberholzer. Neutral Attitude At a meeting of the board of director of the club last March, the board voted to adopt a neutral attitude In the controversy until after the International Joint commission had reported. This action was rati- fled by the club at it next regular session.

Accordingly, a telegram was sent to Minnesota member of con gress urging delay in any legislation until the Joint commission report was made. Several'weeks ago a group of "insurgents," at an Informal meet ing, asked the board to rescind this action and send a telegram urging support of the Shlpstesd Newton bill This the board refused to do. It was an attempt to force this action on the club that waa ruled out of order by President Eschrnan. Every single one of the want ads In The Star today has a message for one or more of our readers.

Bud established a watch, and saw a bobtailed wildcat slinking toward a chicken coop.

When It saw Bud the cat ran up a tree at Sixteenth avenue S.E.. and Elxth street. Bud shot It dow nwlth his rifle. "When it found that It wasn't to get any more chickens, that wildcat sure was wild," Bud said.

CARS TsJJSED dential candidates. Call of People Heeded And so the big show Is over, the tent Is down, and safe and sane, solid, well-poised and Intelligent the Republican convention of 1928 passes into history. It has done a most extraordinary thing. The American politicians have responded to a real call from the American people. Hoover was without machine, had no powerful political friends, was surrounded by a lot of young academicians in horn-rimmed glasses.

Yet because the times called for Hoover the Republicans instinctively turned to him. The machinery of politics controlling a great party organization slowly ground Hoover into a candidate for the presidency. What a refreshing spectacle for those who would maintain that the Republican party organization is Impervious to public sentiment. Hoover won where Roosevelt failed. Roosevelt expended vast sums of energy fighting the machine.

Hoover, passive, complacent, a nonresident Quaker, oozed Ms way through the machine like an oleaginous disembodied spirit and appeared In the hopper, a man full panoplied for the hour.
