The deadlock finally was broken. The dreary round of balloting has ceased and the almighty voice from Alabama has returned home to repair his worn vocal chords. The hitter struggle between the and Smith forces made this a convention. For prolonged balloting and noisy demonstration, it Is In a class by itself. the long monotonous Throughout grind of roll calls frequent attempts were made by earnest Democrats to find some solution of the difficulty facing the convention, any solution that would leave the party in harmonious unity. Ralston, Cox, and one or two others who had been receiving votes withdrew their names in the hope that such action would start the some candidate upon tide toward whom the delegates could unite. Rut the only effect was to bring out new candidates. Tuesday evening, after the 03rd ballot, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Smith Wnnnger, announced that he was authorized by Governor Smith to withdraw the governor's name If McAdou o would do likewise. Rut until Mr. would withdraw, said Mr. Roosevelt, the supporters of Smith would continue to vote for the governor. DEADLOCK IS JARRED Just before the 100th ballot the deadlock was jarred by the reading of a letter from McAdoo releasing his delegates. The Smith followers did not take this ns a bona fide withdrawal, so they continued to vote for the govenor.

His enunciation of the basic principles upon which the party should make its campaign also were wildly acclaimed. START NOMINATING SPEECHES While the platform was being fought over by the committee it was Redded to devote the time to getting rid of some of the nominating oratory. Forney Johnston of Alabama made the speech nominating Senator Oscar Underwood of Alabama. He rend a resolution he had presented to the committee on resolutions condemning the Ku Klux Klan. It started something. A Ail?"1 wild uproar ensued, several fights were started, but quickly stopped. With nothing else to take up tha immediate attention the delegates de1 voted themselves whole heartedly to the man who" stuff. Former Senator Phelan of California presented the name of William G. McAdoo. The demonstration which followed lasted for nearly an hour. Counter demonstrations were started by tbe followers of Governor Smith. When Chair& man Walsh thought it had gone far ..xV, iMs-- g enough he restored order long enough to entertain a motion to adjourn and pronounce it carrieij. When the convention met Thursday morning the speech making was resumed with frequent repetitions of the scenes of the day before. Franklin D. Roosevelt, former assistant secretary of the navy, was brought to the platform In an invalid rhair to make the speech nominating Gov. A1 Smith of New York. Mr. Roosevelt Is paralyzed In the limbs as a result of an attack of Infantile paralysis. He made a remarkable speech and when the he concluded by pronouncing JOHN W. DAVIS name of the New York governor a He suggested the deadlock. the demonstration broke loose that lasted names of eight Democrats from among for considerably over an hour.

TWO BIG QUESTIONS ' Not since 1896 when the big fight on the free coinage of silver was waged, has there been such a fight over the platform In any political convention. The two big questions at issue were the stand to he taken on the Ku Klux Klan and the League of Nations. All week the committee labored, day and night, in an effort to come to an agreement that would pre- t p 'pr ill vent the bringing questions on the tion. The earnestness of the members of the committee In their desire for harmony was dramatically illustrated just before the committee took a recess at six oclock Saturday morning after an session, when William Jennings Rryan offered up a fervent prayer for Divine guidance. The Klan plank was bitterly fought on the floor. As It was finally adopted, mention of the Klan by name is omitted and the plank makes a plea for religious freedom and tolerance. This was the plank offered hv the majority of the committee and it won out by n hare margin of four votes. The other disputed plank was that referring to the League of Nations. Former Secretary of War Newton D. Raker offered a minority report flatly favoring a declaration for the Wilson league. The plank submitted by the wood, 41 6.

McAdoo lost out by a large majority. And Friday was no different from the days that had gone before. More oratory and demonstrations, but they finally got to the end of the roll call, and all the favorite sons were presented for the consideration of tl; delegates. That woman has become an active factor in political life was apparent in this convention. They participated in the proceedings on tbe floor of the convention and in committee work.
