A JOB FOX THEODORE
Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., announc
es that the election in New York was
not an Al Smith victory. The voters
passed enthusiastically the eight
amendments which Al fuvored .and
they defeated by 400.000 the one
which he opposed. But Theodore Jr.,
is, nevertheless, able to figure that
it was not an Al Smith victory.
The boy grows more wonderful as
time passes. Some years ago he fig
ured that the war whose end we
celebrate today was won exclusively
Republicans, so that Armistice day
should by rights be a strictly Repub
lican holiday. That was marvelous,
but figuring that Al Smith's didn't
win is even more so.
Such talent should not be permit
ted to go unused. Give young Theo
dore a pad, a pencil and 13 minutes
and he will figure for you how the
British lost the battles of WaTerloo
md Trafalgar, how the Indian Se
poys won and the Spanish Armada
was completely successful. To such

SUCK IS FAME
A story and it's a good one, too
i s going the rounds to the effect
that a few years ago Harvey S. Fire
stone, Henry Ford, Thomas A. EJi
son and John Burroughs were tour
ing through West Virginia. A light
on their car went bad and they stop-
ped at a little crossroads store in the
Buckingham section. Mr. Ford went
into the store to ninke the purchase.
"What kind of automobile glibes
io you have?"
" A lison," replied the merchant.
"I'll take one." said Ford, "and
ycu may be interested to know that
Mr. Edison is out in my car."
"So?" said the merchant.
When the light was put in it wns
found that a new tire was needed,
so Ford went back to the store and
asked what kind of tires the mer
chant had.
"Firestone," was the reply.
"By the way, you may be interest
ed to know that Mr. Firestone is out
in my car, and that I am Mr. Ford
Henry Ford."
"So?" said the merchant, and let
drive a long squirt of tobacco against
the wall.
While the merchant was putting
on the tire, Burrough, who had white
whiskers, leaned out of the car and
said. "Good morning, sir."
The merchant looked up at him
with a grin of sarcasm, and said
"If you try to tell me that you are
Santa Claus, I'll be damned if I
don't crown you with this wrench."

At the time President Coolidge
made his announcement that he did
"not choose to run in 192S," plans
were in preparation for a revival of
the fight against a third term in the
presidency. While many were skep
tical as to the President's sincerity,
and assumed that he was merely re
sorting to a politician's trick, the
statement was generally accepted as
an hontest expression of a fixed de
termination. When Senator Fess be
gan his meanderings about the coun
try insisting that the President would
run despite his statement to the
contrary, the skeptics multiplied;
and when the President was reported
to have rebuked the Senator some of
these became believers again but
not all.
Now comes the report that with
the President out of the race there
will be a serious difficulty because
of the conflicting aspirations of
Charles Evans Hughes of New York
and Mr. Hoover of California and
Europe, and that the President must
be drafted.
Meanwhile the prospective candi
dates are manifesting a strange tim
idity about their own intentions; and
the impression is now prevalent that
the President is a candidate and will
be a candidate when the convention
mets.
If he means that he was supposed
to have said in his Black Hills state
ment he can easily put the skeptics
to rout by using such plain, blunt
speech as that of Mr. McAdoo when
he took himself out of the race for
the Democratic nomination. A few
words can do that effectively and
finally: "I am not a candidate and
will not accept the nomination if of
fered." In the absence of any such state
ment, the time has come for further
discussions of the third-term idea.
In 1S75. as near the convention of
1S76 as we are now to that of 1928,
President Grant was occupying the
same mysterious position as that of
President Coolidge today. Men then,
as now, were insisting that he should
be nominated for a third term, and,
if necessary, drafted. Many of his
movement indicated a design upon
the nomination . Other men with
ambitions were holding back await-
ii.
definite announcement from
Mr. Grar.t. This was not forthcom
ing. It was charged at the time that
the plan of the President and his sup
porters was to permit things to drift
in the hope that in this way public
sentiment would not be stirred by
discussions of the two-term tradi-

Eiain then one of the hopeful,
dodged ir.to the cloakroom to escape
the roll call; and Grant's angry com
ment that Blrine was "in no one's
wi:y" rather justified the resolution.
The time? for the public to soberly
reflect upon the significance of break
ing the tradition of Washington.
Jefferson, Madison and Jackson is
now; not afier the convention. The
resolution adopted to meet the case
of Grant should be presented pre
cisely as it was passed in 1875 for
the action of Congress in December.
If the President refuses to make his
position clear there is all the more
reason why the public should have
