Rankin Retains
Goodrich Account

". o. Rutherford Second Vice-Presi-
dent Of The B. F. Goodrich Rubber
Company, Akron, Ohio, announces that
the B. F. Goodrich advertising will be
handled by their present agency, the
VIM. H. Rankin Company of New York
and Chicago, for 1920.
This is the seventh consecutive year
the VIM. H. Rankin Company has
handled the B. F. Goodrich Company
business
'Newspaperdom" recently made the
following complimentary notice con-
corning the Goodrich newspaper adver-
Using:
The B. F. Goodrich Company is to
be congratulated upon the excellency
Of its recent tire advertising first, be-
cause it gets absolutely away from
time-honored ideas in this class of pub
Hcity; second, because of the origi-
nality shown in the design and plan of
using space. and third, because OF the
tact that the advertising renders a
very beneficial cooperative service to
dealers handling the product. While
we have commented favorably upon
the improvement being constantly
made in auto advertising, we feel that
the latest effort by the Goodrich people
peared so far in the dailies."
Mr.. VIM. II. Rankin has steadily and
consistently advocated the use OF
newspapers both as d national as we'll
as local advertising medium, since lie
started in the agency business in
1908. In an interview recently he
stated: Much of the success that has
come to our organizations both in New
York and Chicago, has been due to
the fact that years ago We recognized
the value of daily newspapers for ma
tiOnal advertising. In 1914 our daily
newspaper volume was less than five
hundred thousand dollars and this
year it will exceed two million and q
half, or more than our entire volume
of business for 1916-our greatest pre-
war year.

No attempt will be made to con-
slider candidates.. The aim OF the
conference will be to develop issues,
not men. But, on the other hand, any
candidate who tries to side-step the is
sues made will have hard time of it
with the liberals. They are pretty
well in command of Republican poll
tics in the west.
Standpats Control East
In the east the liberals are in a la
mentable minority. recent letter to
New York Republicans urging them
to register contained the names of
Elihu Root, Henry w. Taft, two or
| three others of that school of econo-
mics, and only young Theodore Roose-
welt to give the list liberal tint.
! In Massachusetts Winthrop Muir
ray Crane has registered a mighty
VOW that no one shall rise out of the
Republican convention of 1920 who
had anything to do with the bolt OF
1912. And Murray Crane is still
alive. Anyone who thinks that Muir
ray Crane is dead has another guess
coming. The coffin in which he was
supposed to have been buried in 1914
was full of bricks.
He turned up at the Massachusetts
convention d lS" "CChs
ago and put through the resolution
favoring adopting the League Of Ma
tions without the Lodge amendments
This doesn't mean that Mr.. Crane
was particularly keen about the I'm
reserved covenant. But it does mean
that he was giving due and formal
notice to all corners that his cottlr
contained a dummy, and that he is
ready to do business at the old stand
The liberals will have to reckon
with him, and his kind, and Murray
Crane will lead his kind. Penrose
doesn't care much. Any one can get
along with Penrose who let's hin
alone in Pennsylvania. At the mo
ment he is reforming the state in {
Philadelphia election. After that
he will consider what turns up.
Taft will not fight. Reed Smoo
has his own troubles. Archie Steven

den has his own boom, and the res

reservations, and a meeting in Chi
cago to sound the tocsin of Reput-
lican liberalism will be fairly good
news if it comes early in the week.
The men behind the movement in
the main are the men who went to the
Chicago convention with Roosevelt.
That means not the last ditchers; not
the 1916 Bull Moosers-though they
also will be there, but it means men
of the cast Of mind of Borah and
Kenyon and Hadley, as we'll as John
son and Pinchot and Garfield.
johnson Won't Be There.
OF course Hiram Johnson will not
be at the January meeting. His pres
ence would be too obvious. OF sud-
Gen he has become presidential timber

that he can talk to the public. He

California in 1916 They are for him
now; they like his fighting qualities
end-he cam hold them; for they know
he is a winner. He has their con-
( fidence.
So if he would turn up at the Libe1-
al Conference in January 1t might
look too much like a frame-up. But
men who believe as he believed 2
years ago and years ago and 5
years ago will be there. The demands
of the Bull Moose platform of 1912 are
of course ancient history. The more
important of these demands are nov
legalized. So the stakes will have to
be set forward again. And this con-
ference will try to find a place where
it may drive in the stakes of Repub-
iican progress which shall not be too
far forward, yet far enough forward
TO attract people who are actually
moving.
A world of letters have been pass
ing between liberal Republicans durin:;
the last three months. And it is evl
dent from the clearing house of these
! letters in Chicago that the liberal
Republicans expect to move distinctly
ahead.
They will recognize that new condl-
tons face the world; that new prob
lens must be solved; that while
human nature does indeed remain the
same its methods of expressions
change and move forward in better
laws and broader institutions.

will stand for certain things like &

legislation like the Cummins bill:
they will ask for trade restrictions
such as are embodied in the Kenyon
Hendricks bill; they will stand for the
eight hour day in labor and the recog
milton of trades unions. They viii

This is mild enough; but if it is lai5

will have weight.

So it may be assumed that the lib

merrily down to Chicago, next winter,
realize that they will have a fight.

man, would like to see them win their

that we can not get anywhere abusing

later in the year; but they like it

A meeting of the Liberal Repub-

January to outline a plan for the com

Chairman Hays knows about the
meeting. If he has not given it his
blessing, he has at least turned his
back while it was growing, and now it
is beyond his control.
The meeting was to have been called
in November. But the men who desire
the meeting feared that the aftermath
of the League of Nations fight might
be too visible, and that the meeting
might end in a fight, rather than in 4

ant will have been adopted. The real
