Picked as one of the most popular and widely known women of Wis consin and 88 one with national prominence in her favor, Mrs. Adalin W. Macauley was indorsed as one of four delegates at large to the National Republican convention at Kansas City by the convention of Wisconsin Republicans Thursday at Milwaukee, Mrs. Macauley returned Friday morning from Milwaukee where she was called' hurriedly Wednesday to find herself pushed to the forefront as the most logical candidate for the Republican state. Zona Gale is the woman direct ly opposed to Mrs.

Macauley on the Progressive slate alone with ators La Follette and Blaine, and Theodore Kronschage. On the Re publican ticket with Mrs. Macau ley are George J. Weigle of Milwaukee, Andrew Dahl, Westby, and Andrew L. Kreutzer of Wausau.

It is undoubted that Mrs. Macauley will carry considerable weight with her because of the 1 following she has gathered in her service as department president of the Auxiliary to the American Legion and as the national president of the Auxiliary during the past vear. Through her energy and genius for organization she won the plaudits of the Europeans, as well as those of great national convention of the Auxildary at Paris. If the power of Mrs. Macauley's support can be spread out to her colleagues, it is pogsible that the hold of the Progressives on Wisconsin may be broken.

One of the telling points of the Republican convention was the adoption of a resolution calling for a referendum on the Eighteenth amendment provided for and regulated by congress to learn what the judgement of the American people is as to the repeal or modification of the amendment and also as to the modification of the Voistead law. The Republicans believe that it the referendum shows the people back of the amendment, the law will be easier to enforce, but if the vote is to the contrary congress will be in duty bound to make the changes demanded by the 1-eople. This is the first venture of Mrs. Macauley into politics, and her course will be watched with interest by her friends. Mail Today MENOMONIE, Wis, Dec.
