DESPITE OPPOSITION OF PARTY BOSSES, McADOO SEEMS LIKELY TO BE PRE SIDENTIAL NOMINEE. (Continued from Pago One. .stepped out upon I he stage and made his toil Low.

Cox won the Democratic nomination, hut was defeated in Hie election by Warren O, Harding. Hie Hcpubliran nominee The Ohio leader set Hie slage rarcfully. for his presentation of McAdoo. He spent several months in canvassing the send ment of parly leaders in various Slates. Then he arranged for a delegation of prominent Demo crats lo wait upon McAdoo and urge him to announce his can didacy for Hie nominal ion. Mr- Adoo demanded time lo satisfy himself that his services were really required by his parly. While he was presumably slrutt-gliug with this jtroblem, Hock-well came out with his "one great figure" statement, claim- in? he had assurance of Demo cratic support for McAdoo in more than forty Slates. Likely Candidate llockwell managed the pre liminaries adroitly.

It all depend upon the srengtlli of the forces that Tammany am its allies can mobilize, and that in all probability will' not be known unlil Ihe delegate gather fur the national convention. In this bat He the zero hour wil! be whin the balloting begins. The Host's of the Democrat ii- party organization!- in New Jer- ey. Illinois. and Indiana are the chief alllie of Tammany in Ihe warfare again! McAdoo. I'heir hostile altitude is due largely lo McAdoo' relation lo Wilson, who. when lie was President, did not defer in the matter of patronage a much a they thought a Democratic pre sident ought lo do. They dis like McAdoo for his father-in-law' sake; also thry dislike him on his own account, for when he was Secretary of the Treasury he shared Wilson's attitude o. ward Tammany. It w.s during McAdoo incumbency that Ihe Federal Reserve system and Ihe Farm Loan system were started and the income lax machinery installed. This meant that he had an immense number lof appointments to icake. There I were inaiiy Job nice juicy job , that should have gone lo the j faithful, but they went to the eflicicnl inleni. In selecting hi personnel MeAdoo is said to jbave paid but little heed to the I recommendations oi me mani-'pulalors.of the party machine. .Thus he incurred tlo-ir enmity. In the Democratic convention a lwo-lhinls vole of the dele- gale is neressary In win the Presidential nominal ion. There will be l.oiM delegate lo Ihe lid I convention, wlii.-h mean that McAdoo will ned 730 to win. Conversely, Tu'iM'iany and its allies wilt wed 305 lo pre vent him from winning. Whether they can secure Ihi preventive hlo- and hold it solid at Ihe iConvetilioit I a mailer of no , little speculation at !!ie present ilime. Following a meeting which the leader of Ihe opposition fart ion held recently at French I. irk, an Indiana health resort Hie lletroc-nlie bosses always seem lo meet ct a healll) resort when I hey plan lo make tilings politically unhealthy for some one- H was reported that McAdoo' opponents expeel him to line up nearly too delegate who will vole against him lo the end. The political wriler of some of Ihe leading Democratic papers, however, declare that (hi expectation will never be realized. . . Factor in His Favor There " arc two big factor' si in .Mc.viioo ravor: lie has a fine record of public service, and he ha a personality that will make a strong appeal lo the rank uitd file, lie I modest and unassuming a man of action rattier than words. He I an astute politician, but there l nothing spectacular ) flam- buoyant in 'his methods. He is an indefatiifiiiihle worker, spar ing neither ; himself nor his as sociales and If he is chosen a the Democratic standard-hearer he will undoubted conduct ft strenuous though dignified cam paigu. He Is probably Ihe nut standing man of the Democratic parly both In point of merit and ability. , His record is dot led with brilliant achievements, .McAdoo' was born In Ceorgia In 1H63. He is a lawyer by pro fession, but for a manager of a 1 ' Icompauy in Knnxville, Tenn. and (for ten years was. president of Hie Hudson and Manhattan Hall-Jway Company of New York. He look no active purl in politics until he joined the Wilson forces in IUI I. In the pre-convention cam paign of IllJO, .McAdoo was regarded n one of the "possibilities for the Democratic nomination, hut he wa subjected to a hiltcr aault on account of hi relationship to Wil-on. He wa dubbed "the Crown Prince" and wa made the target for innumerable shafts of acrid wit regarding the "right of succession to the Presidency. Jul before the convention opened he wired several of the parly leaders that he did not want the nomination. Nevertheless heen-ered Hie convention u big favorite and .')rilcd so in all of the ' arly ballot. He hail SCO vole on the firsl ballot and ror by various stages lo tfln on the forty-first, hi hlghe-t point. Delegate controlled by Tammy and Company oppocd Mm throughout the voting, and lii defeat was generally attributed to this opposition. Can the Hosses lal him in 1 021 Thi is Ihe question up on wtilcli Hie liuerem oi ine press and public of the Demo crat party I focussed at the present time. GREAT EXPANSION alreet-rtiihvjyi '"""l.
