committee opens and canvasses
the returns o fthe second primary,
and prepares the delegate list for
the convention. The convention
wilt be held Sept. 10. It will de-
clare the nominee for office.and
adopt a party platform. A new
state executive committee and
chairman will be chosen.
There is a conflict in the law
apparently placing the state con
vention on Sept 3, six days ahead
of the canvass by the state com-
mittee. Since such a date iwoulu
make it impossible for the con-
vention to perform its main duty
certifying the party nominees,
the section of the law creating
the conflict has been ignored by
the party leaders in the past, and,
will be disregarded this year.

But with destruction, suffering
and thousands of wounded added
each day to the frightful toll of war
as new nations became involved,
the American Red Cross appealed
to the nation for at least a ten mil
