PRICE THREE CENTS AFTER A PROLONGED STRUGGLE Nominee of Democrats, on Wfh Ballot 44TH BALLOT Jovernor of Ohio Chosen to Carry Standard of Democratic Party in Fight for Presidency with Senator Harding, Also of Ohio— Conven tion Ends Early in Morning, Tu mult Attending Breaking of Dra matic Deadlock ^ • ■— . ~ San Francisco, July o.— James M. Cox, ihree times governor of lliio, was nominated for the presidency early this morning by the lemocratic national convention in the break up o f one of the most rolonged deadlocks in the history of national political parties. It took 44 ballots to make a choice, and it was not until the 8th, when Attorney General Palmer withdrew from the race, that the jng succession of roll calls showed any definite trend. In the turnover of the Palmer delegates Cox gained the advant- ge over William G. McAdoo, his rival for first place since early :n lie balloting, and that advantage never was lost. With its choice made, the convention adjourned to noon today o na.'ne a candidate for the vice presidency. Roosevelt Favorite for Second Place. Should it be decided to give second place on the ticket to the ist, Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York, assistant secretary of the avy, seemed to be a favorite but if the nomination goes to the West ere are several possibilities talked about by the leaders. Supporters of Governor Cox won a way to the nomination by rsistent battering at the McAdoo and Palmer forces in many states iroughout a long series o f shiftings and rallies which left now one l»nd then the other of the candidates in the lead.

Washington, July 6 .— West- er” ^ork; showers tonight , Wednesday; moderate to fresh south winds. WAS BORN ON FARM IN 1870 gates who a t first had swung to McAdoo drifted over into the Cox cnrapJn in creasing numbers and he began to take a commanding place in the ballot ing. Once he had more than a m ajori ty the fight was easy. A t the end of another day o f furious struggle, the convention stampeded to Cox, flung aside its rules and made his nomination unanimous w ith a roaring shout. Terrific Uproar A terrific uproar followed. The whole mass o f delegates threw themselves into a final w ild demonstration, greater than any o f the orgies of noise that had preceded. In the m idst o f the dim, Chairman Robinson succeeded in restoring a sem blance o f order to get the adjournment until noon so that Governor Cox's wishes as to his team-mate could be learned. E. I-I. M oore o f Youngstown, Ohio, national committeeman from the state and leader o f the tireless and uphill fight that w o n the nomination for the Ohio governor, said it had been made without promises. The struggle was exceeded in votin g duration in Demo cratic annals anl.v by the fight at B a l timore in 1912 which gave the president his first nomination on the 40 ballot Fresh from the over-Sunday study of the 22 ballots taken last week, the con vention w e n t to work Monday seeming ly hopelessly tied up in a triangular deadlock between Cox, McAdoo and Palmer Leaders had no predictions to make although they then thought Cox with a lead of some 60 votes over McAdoo and more than 200 over Palmer on the 22nd roll call, which events proved to he just the h a lf w a y point, had a decided advantage. Ambassador Davis Congratulates Cox (B y the Associated Press.) James Middleton Cox was three times governor o f O h io— an honor en joyed by only one other Ohioan, Rutherford B. Hayes. Born on a farm , educated in the public schools, a p r in ter’s devil, a school teacher, a newspaper reporter, a private secretary to a congressman, owner, manager and proprietor of two newspapers, m em b e r o f Congress fo r three years and three times gov ernor of his state is Ills record to date. Business success paralleled hia political aehievemente and through his own efforts Cox has amassed a for tune. Mr. Cox became the leader of the Democratic P a r t y in Ohio in 1012 when he was nom inated fo r governor. As one who had brought rabicu.l changes in the state constitution, he took the field lu its behalf. His first term as governor w a s devoted chiefly to forwarding the enactm ent of laws to put the new state constitution into effect. But Ohio evidently w a s not prepared to assimilate all the new laws for Cox was defeated fo r re-election. But his party renominated him in 1016 and he was re-elected fo r a third term in 1018 being the only Democrat to win lu Ohio. Legislation fo r w h ich Governor Cox is best known includes a model W o rk men’s Compensation L a w and a Child Labor Law which h a v e been exten sively copied by other states. Educar tors of the country say the Ohio school code, enacted under Governor Cox’s direction, w ill live as a monument to his achievements Mr. Cox was born in Butler County, Ohio, in 1870. H e attended district school and held his first position as a teacher of the school in which he took his first lessons. H e spent even ings and holidays in a printing office. In a few years he received his first assignment on the reportorial staff of the Cincinnati Enquirer. After 10 years w ith the Enquirer, he went to Washington as a private sec retary to Congressman I’ aul Sore of Ohio. At the close o f this service, he purchased the D a y ton Daily News, iiorrowlng most o f the money to pay for it. Later he purchaser the Spring field Daily News. H e was first elected to Congress in lfiOK.

Ohio, July 6.— Governor James M Cox, who was nominated for the presidency by tho Dem ocratic na tional convention early today declined to make a statement regarding his vic tory until ofter he had received notifi cation from the convention. Tho governor received the news of his nomination in his newspaper office, the Dayton News, surrounded by fe l low newspaper workers and a few rel atives and intim ate friends. When The Associated Press wires flashed the news of his nomnation, his first act was to cross the room and kiss his wife. H e then left the building, walked a fe w blocks to the home o f his closest personal friend, John A. Mc Mahon, aged 87, dean o f Dayton Law yers, to whom ho wished personally to give the news. 'Mrs. Cox was highly elated over the nomination o f her husband, and imme diately sent a telegram to her father, Thomas P. Blair, of Chicago. Governor Cox planned to visit the grave o f his m other this m orning Ills mother. Mrs. Gilbert Cox, died at the age of S5 several years ago. She lived to see him inaugurated governor for a first term. Most Daytonlans were in bed when the flash came announcing that Gov ernor Cox had been nominated. They did not know that their fe llo w towns man had received tho highest honor the Democratic Party can give until they read their newspapers at their breakfast tables and on their way to work Hundreds o f telegrams o f con gratulation were received fo r tho governor M any o f them were from his workers and delegates at San Fran cisco. Soon after tho news o f his nomina tion was received. Governor and Mrs. Cox. who had remained up all night receiving returns, left for th e ir home, “ T rail's End.” near Dayton. The gov ernor expected to take a b r ief rest and then return to his newspaper office. During the morning meetings were held by officials of the D a y ton Cham ber o f Commerce, who are planning a huge jullification m eeting late today or tonight— probably tonight. When the governor arrived, at his newspaper office he was presented with resolutions o f congratulations from the union printers working on the paper. The resolutions pledged united support and continued • “ W e recognize the fa c t that you have come from the ranks of tho workers, and therefore, are In every way able to understand, the needs and requirements o f the man who toils ’’ Other employes o f the News ex tended form a l congratulations through an editorial appearing in today’s issue. B e fore leaving for homo after tho convention adjourned early this morn ing the governor shook hands with enfih employe about the newspaper. slsted on casting one more vote for Palmer as a final tribute to him. Thu delegation chairman's statement went unheeded fo r tho most purl and the great block of votes went down for Palm er amid a surprised hush. The announcement o f the whole bal led by Cox adherents. I t showed lie led by Cox adherents, t l showed he had outstripped M cAdoo In the race for Palm er delegates and again reached tho lead. Cox Foracs Sccnt Victory. The Cox forces scented victory right there. Again time was required to get quiet enough to start a new roll call. When Pennsylvania was reached the delegation asked fo r a poll. One by one a big M cAdoo m a jority in the Penusylvnuia ranks wns disclosed and Cox supporters looked a little dis turbed. The d r ift to the Ohio stand- art was on, however, and even the more than two score Palm er men who joined from tho Pennsylvania forces could not push M cAdoo back into the lead. McAdoo Men Want to Adjourn. A flght to adjourn fo r the night was started by M cAdoo supporters against shouts of “ no, no,'-’ all over the floor. The motion went do\vn on a decisive vote, and the 41st ballot was started. I t showed new drifts to Cox. Tho great galleries above the delegntes wore by then almost vacant. Great blocks of empty seats showed where worn out spectators had given It up by midnight and gone home expecting another day. Georgia Flops to Cox. When Georgia was reached tho dele gation chairman leaped to his chair and shouted that his state formerly in Mcdoo ranks, would join hands to Ohla “ to name the next president.” He cast the solid Georgia vote for Cox and the shout that follow e d seemed to rock the building. \McAdoo follow e rs were still holding grimly. Again the Texas block of -10 votes went in for him. The western states stuck hard and even the fact that Cox had swept beyond the first m a jority vote recorded fo r any candi date did not shake them loose Cox Drift Gainls Momentum. The 43rd roll call began in a riot of noise. L ittle by littlo the drift to the Cox column continued gaining momen tum as it ran. “ Get into the wagon” roared a man In the gallery and tho Cox rooters took it up. Votes fo r other candidates than Cox or McAdoo brought yells to “ come out of it” and “ wake up.” In the Now Tork delegation a chal lenge f o r a poll sent a dozen men scur rying to argue with the challenger, lie was the center o f a flro of argument and abjuration he could not resist. Finally, after a now move by McAdoo supporters to adjourn in a last desper ate effort to stave off defeat had been roard down, the last ballot, the 4-lth began The result was forcast1 w ith tho first vote. Alabama swung solid to Cox. State by state, delegations who had stuck opt f o r M cAdoo with divided del egations, followed suit. The slide had sot In and there was no stopping it. Tho convention had its mind set to nomi nate on that ballot. Up and up mounted the Ohioan's total o f votes. As It passed the 700 mark w ith tho necessary two-thirds just ahead, tho tumult in creased until the last votes were heard only vaguely on the platform . Penn sylvania went over and the Colorado chairman leaped to Ills chair to change the vote of his state to Cox. H a lf a dozen other chairmen were waving for recognition to make sim ilar announce ments. Made Unanimous Through n continous dm Amidon moved that the rules be suspended and the nomination bo made unanimous A ll over tho great hall men clime I up on chairs to wave arms for silence Banging his gavel m a final thump. Chairman Rnblnsin put the question t.> and the anstver rim red back at him with all the volume of a thousand voices in shout ins the tremendous “ a y e \ that made Governor ( ox the Democratir nominee. The -14 ballot never was completed In the ehorous of affirmation it wes swept away as unni'oc'^sary Many of the changes which would have been made had the vote been carried through were never recorded and on the face of that ballot. Governor Cox re ceived officially 702 1-2 votes but tlu-j were never totalled for be was nomin afed by tho uimminons voce of the convention Neighbor’s in Ohio The nomination o f Governor <-ox means that tho two great parties not only have gone into the same state for their candidates, but have picked men who for years have been Associated more or less closely in the some profes sion. Like Senator IlardinR, fiovenior Cox is a newspaper man and tlieir home towns in Ohio are not far npart. Neither Palmer nor McAdoo sup porters were daunted, however, and the S.'ird poll, first o f the 22 more tho convention was to go through during tho day and, night to follow, sliowed their forces relatively ns strongly entrenched as ever. N o noon recess w a s taken. The convention drove ahead through two new surges, one tow a rd Palmer and tho other toward M cAdoo, neither of which produced any d,ecided results. A ll three of tho leaders were going strongly when a dinner recess pave opportunity for the final setting of lines on which the battlo would be carried to a finish. Galleries again w e r e jammed aud delegates wfirc keyed up to n point where shouts anil, cheers greeted changes of single votes. A slight con tinued gain for M c A d o o on the first night ballot sent his partisans off into a roaring, gesticulating parade about tho hall in which western and southern state standards were promi nent but which no am ount of shouting could induce N ew Y o r k or Pennsyl vania to join. N e w Y o r k had reached a division of 20 for M cAdoo nnd 70 for Cox on • which it stuck throughout while Pennsylvania ns steadily had voted 73 of Its 76 delegates for P a l mer. Palmer Men Released W ith the 37tli b a llot however, r a i nier strength took another drop. Am idst wild jubilation by McAdoo sup porters. Chairman Robinson fought fo r ord.er and led form e r Representative Carlin of Virginia, ,Palmer's manager, up to the speaker’s stand. Tlio crowd hushed. It recognized Carlin and knew that his appearances forecast only one thing; the release of the Palm er delegates aud a break-up in the long deadlock. A n olectrlc feel ing o f expectancy w a s in the nlr, Carlin briefly stnted, that Attorney General Palmer wns not willing longer to delay a nomination and au thorized the com p lete and uncon ditional release o f his delegates. A shout went up only to ho <]tiickly stilled, while Chairm a n Robinson an nounced a 20 m inute recess so th a t delegations might be polled for n e w alignments before another vote w a s taken. Hum and W h irl on Floor. W hile tho recess -was on the galler ies sat tense staring down Into th e great pit below where delegates scrambled and tumbled through th e aisles conferring to appraise th e situation before determining th e ir course. McAd,oo and Cox workers worked up to the maximum effort to tako advantage o f the break. T h e floor hummed aryl whirled like th e stock exchange on a panicky day.
