Finally, at. 20 minutes to 12, Chairman Walsh began whacking for order. The sergeants-at-arms, aided by the police, went through the aisles requiring delegates and alternate!) to bo Heated and thoso having no business there to msve on or out.

H. Moore, Youngstown the Cox manager of four years Jigo, stopped the movement. Finally there was a near rumpus fcbout the standard going into parade. Apparently there was Borne agreement about it because when one man seized It several others held it down and had a heated argument which resulted in the Standard remaining where it was. As there was no attempt to stop the noise and get back to work the 'demonstration for Coz continued.

It was a spontaneous demonstration. Chairman Walsh calmyly sat down fend had a conversation with some associates and let the band go ahead and the Cox people continue their "demonstration.

He gave It up and retired smilingly while the convention roared. Everybody said it was tho best speech so far delivered. Chairman Walsh announced to the convention that Mr. Maloney had taken the platform to second Governor Smiths nomination and then introduced S. V.
