Cox Still Believ ed Possibility for U. S. Presidency McAdon Mso Likely tn B<’ Contender for Democratic Nomination—Ford Di« turbinp Element. (Continued from I'ag* One.) r>|/o till! lop f irm up to maK-nal wealth and political power, if he were the sort of mail >vho gives up w.tli the first defeat. Even if hi* former backers should not now lie interested hi him. Vox is better able to initiate and further his own fortune* by hi* own efforts than lie was three years ago. As regards Ohio, even if soni" of Cox’s old friends among the lead •r» are row cold toward him. it must he remembered that in Ohio Cox is a *ood deal Of a leader in himself. Ohio !S hue of the dlreet primary states md if Cox wants the Ohio delegation for himself in the democratic conven tion next vear there is nothing to pre vent hla going after it- The posses slon of the Ohio delegation—if he should go after it and get it—would at least give to Cox a leverage in the convention out of whieli a resourceful man might lie able to make much. He's Out. leaders Assume. When this hos been said it Is about ail that can lie said for Cox's chances. The undeniable fart necessary to be included in any statement of the sit nation as it exists today is that most of the party leaders take it fur grant ed that Cox is out of it. There is one respect, however, in j which 1 here is just a poselbtltty that cox may fool them all. When Cox . adopted the Wilson issue lie did not do it merely a» a matter of expediency - as a mere matter of comparing two paths and choosing the one that seemed to him more promising for the purpose of the campaign. Cox's adop-I tion of the Wilson policy of Interna i.onal cooperation was no such thing n< this. It was a genuine conversion, lie look on an almost evangelistic fer „ t, r i'ox really became tnoceulated with the fundamental idea, that we , .innot have a happy and p rose pro u a world until we have International en operation and until the United states does Its part in it. Having tills depth of conviction. Cox was not disturbed in it by the disastrous effect it had on his own political fortunes. Ho clung to it and during the intervening time his devotion to it has become steadily stronger. Regardless of how his per sonal political fortunes may he af fected by Ills relation to this issue, l ox regards international co-operation as a sacred cause. Willing to He SpokfiiillH Because of his absorption in it he. is , probably a little more able and a little more willing to be the spokes man and leader of this issue than al most any one uf the other men men tinned in connection with the demo cratic nomination. Cox can talk In ternational co-operation with more enthusiasm and lead a crusade in that interest with more energy than al most anybody else except Wilson him self when he was In good health. If it should happen that International cooperation should be the leading is sue in 1934 it might turn out that Cox's inner fire on this subject would he such ns to make him available for iY\f' nomination. So much for Cnx Friend William O McAdoo of I.os Angeles was In our town for several days last week, it "as Ids first a ‘"it to bis old friends and associate* hero since he made his migration from New York tn the more salubrious i lirnate of Los Angeles (More salubri ous. in his case, not only in Hie sense of being more kindly to his bronchial pa-.sages, but more salubrious, al.”". political!' for while Mr. McAdoo ns a cltixen of New York could not get the solid delegation of his stale in a democratic national convention. h> . an and will ha\e a solid and most enthusiastic delegation from Califor run. Health and High Spirits. , Th" health ana hign spirits of Mr. McAdoo were really.so striking as to be a matter of general comment to a town that had observed him grow pretty tired under the strain of run ning the United States treasury din ing Hie war. The Los Angeles chum bee of Commerce could well afford to finance a presidential campaign tour of the country for Mr. McAdoo, just a* an ad\ertisement of th - southern California air. Ills long legs step out ill a way that suggests his complete confidence In his capacity to take hold of a rather madly muddled world and make it go. lie gave the Impression of buoyant and confidently eager activity, as his long strides took him about our local streets—barring a witticism that be came current about MeArJoo showing a curious apprehensive nervousness about being run down by a Ford, lie seemed to justify once more the de scription. written by Unde Henry, “Collier's'' humorist, of McAdoo when lie was first appointed secretary of the treasury in 1913. and "came tear In' into Washington, pants flappin’ and ears akimbo . . . For inces sant movement Mac has got every thing beat except a-centipede with St. Vitus’ dance. . . . With him ns president we would get along with out any cabinets, boards, commis sions an’ bureau heuds; and after he got his stride there's a chance he could do the window cleanin, and floor scrubbin'." Kemocratic Stimulus. Mr. McAdoo’s presence here pave unmistakably energetic mid pleasur able stimulus to the local democrats. There were democratic dinners at the homes of democratic senators and democratic conferences in the offices of democratic congressmen. The air became electric with it. To bo sure, Arthur Brisbane re ports Mr. MoAtJoo as having told him that—the words are Mr. Brisbane's— "he is not a candidate amt would not consent to be nominated unless persu aded that it was absolutely his du'y to take the job." Those words have a familiar sound. One may justly suppose that it name easy to Mr. Brisbane to write them. Any experienced political journalist could write them In his sleep. As a journalist recording the actions, mo tives and intentions of politicians for several decades. Mr. Brisbane must have written those same words a good many times before. He has known more candidates than tlie present writer, who 1ms been familiar with QMn« 10 men who got the ttumin^Uon f one or another of the parties, and ' fully 10 tunes 10 who come within! one degree or another of closeness to suiting It; and those words would I have described tho state of mind of any one of them under the same cir j cumstanees. Formidably fo Front. The fact is that -Mr. M-Adoo in rattier more formidably to the front c ns a possibility for the democratic nomination next year than is realized j by even many of those among the j politicians who are distant from Washington and not fully aware of what is going on. MoAdoo is hi an incomparably t stronger position with respect to the next national convention than he was I to the 1921) one. In 1920 he was under several handicaps, sortie of which do not now exist, and some others of which he can reidaly prevent from ex tiding if he cares to. In 1920 MoAdoo kept refusing to authorize his friends to do anything In liis behalf, and maintained this Attitude right up to ; the deciding ballot of the convention. If MoAdoo had felt free to add the j weight of even a faint personal effort on his own part; or if some of his powerful friends had felt justified in throwing their strength into the strug gle without his assent, tho addition of three elements to tho rather remark able number of delegates who voted for MoAdoo anyhow might readily have given him the nomination. At the time it was commonly un derstood that MoAdoo's meticulous re fraining front even tho shadow of a motion in his own behalf was due to concern about the fact that his fath er in law was then president. The ma licious chose to say that M-Ailoo was holding himself because lie feared that Mr. Wilson might have hopes of getting the nomination himself, and lie did not want to be in the position j of being an impediment to ills own father in law. But the more detached preferred to sec more obvious reasons for Mr. McAdoo’fl restraint. Wilson Neutral. Hr knew, as many of us knew—in. spite of Hie wild charges of the re publican?—that Wilson regarded as an imperative propriety of his posi lion in tlie White House that lie should not so much as lift a finger to affec t the choice of hie successor in tlie nomination; and, of course, it could not have been possible for a member of his family to take part tn ihe rare at all without by that act | depriving Mr. Wilson of some of the dignity and good faith of the position he took. This reason for Mr. McAdoo's self restraint and for the restraint which lie imposed upon some of his most powerful friends in ifO does not now exist. Ho far as he might come to want the nomination, or so far as his friends might want it for him, Jhey will not lie deterred by the mere fact that he Is Wilson's son ill law. True, they will lie obliged to anticipate that .f Mr. McAdoo should get the nomina tion the republicans will probably re- j new the jibes of “dynasty" a*nl “crown prince" which they used to fling at Mr McAdoo even during his merely passive candidacy of 1920. Hut 1 these Jihes ill 1924 will have no such relevancy ns the republicans believed they had in 1920. And with Wilson j out of the White House, no one will be able to charge, as the republicans expected to charge if McAdoo had been nominated in 1920, that the \ president of the United Htates had used the power of his office to nomi nate liia own son In law for the suc cession. Comes Now llenry Ford. The present article does not pretend j to tie an adequate survey of the demo- ! eratic situation as it exists today. It j does not purport to lie more than a touching of two or three high spots, I Hut >ou can’t pretend to touch even | one high spot of the democratic situa tion without alluding to Henry Ford, j Tlie democratic leaders lioldvthe most serious, and in some cases the most somber, conviction, that Mr. Ford will cut a large, even though probably er ratic. figure in the situation. (The more erratic It is, the larger it may be.) I Aside from what the papers print, about Mr. Ford and the activities of his advocates, the politicians hear, through the grapevine and graveyard communications of the fraternity, that Mr. Ford or Mr. Ford's friends have utterly impious notions of doing most irregular tilings. They hear he may go into the primaries of both the parties. And however innoeent. even commend able, it may seem to some of the voters for a man to be a nonpartisan or bipartisan candidate for the prosi- ! dency, to the.politicians it is the last J word in heretic horror. They hear j that the plan of Ford's friends is to go first Into the republican primaries and convention. The idea is not that Ford could get (lie republican nomina tion. That would be quite impossible. Might Annex Adherents. Tlie idea is that Ford, by entering the republican primaries and conven tion, could, by a familiar law' of human nature, attach to liimseif a number of adherents whose loyalty would lie such that it would follow him into the democratic party, or even into a third party. Thereafter, the politicians hear, it is the hope of Ford's friends to go into the democratic primaries with the intention of bringing about a stam pede and compelling the democratic leaders to face the dilemma of ai • cepting him under the threat that otherwise there will he a third party. Whether or not Ford’s friends have any such program as this, or what-j ever Ford s course may turn out to bp, the judgment of the politicians is that there is very great latent senti- j moot for Ford, if Ford's advocates should have the good judgment to manage things well, and the good lurk I to avoid tiie mistakes to which ama teurs in polities are liable, Ford might readily turn up in the democratic con vention with fully as many dele i gates as any one of th* more or thodox candidates.
