Race Food Chief Says
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

SpeC1Qt OtSputCb TO Ihe Tft0une
ATLANTA, Feb. 25. Herbert c.
Hoover said in a message to-day to
Secretary Hiram Gardner, of the
Georgia Democratic executive commit
tee, that he did not intend to file his
name in the State Democratic Presi-
dental primary. Mr.. Hoover had been
asked if he desired to qualify as q
Democratic candidate.
Announcement was made that a peti-
ton carrying more than the necessary
number Of names support Robert Lam
sing for the Presidential nomination
had been filed. Mr.. Lansing's name was
accordingly placed on the list.
Commenting upon Mr. Hoover's re-
fusal, Chairman B. J. Flint said that
the answer was what he expected. He
said that under the circumstances Mr.
Hoover could not be considered Dem
ocratlc candidate
Mr.. Hoover's reply follows:
Il feel confident that it is not neces-
sary to dwell at length upon my graft
tude to you for the honor implied in
your letter of February 22.
81 especially appreciate it, since |
was not identified with the Democratic
party before the war, and my official
connection with the government has
been solely war service and conse-
quently rot of partisan character.
Il have not been able to persuade
myself that any real public service will
be performed by injecting myself into
the race for the nomination to the
greatest honor at the disposal of the
American people.
therefore, aside from any other rea-
son, do not intend to file my name"

Palmer Says He
Is Not Candidate
For Presidency
Campaign to Reduce Living
Cost Has Prevented Addi-
tional Price Increases,
He Assures Kentuckians
Special Dispatch to Tho Tribune

LEXINGTON, KY, Feb. 25.-Attorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer said here
tonight that ne is not candidate for
President. He was in Lexington, on his
way to Washington from Frankfort,
where this afternoon he addressed a
JOINT session of the Kentucky Legis-
lature, and was entertained by Gov
ernor Edwin P. Morrow and state Of
ficials, all Republicans. Continuing.
Mr.. Palmer said:
"i have not announced my candidacy
for any office nor have | done anything
in furtherance of any candidate"
Mr.. Palmer said tonight, when asked
what actual results had been accom-
plished looking toward reduction in the
high cost of living:
prices have not materially in
creased since last summer. There have
This winter the percentage of increase
over last summer is less than for any
year in the past nine years. This
is chiefly attributable to the cam
paign against the high cost of living
conducted by the Department of JUS
tice, with the assistance of state fair
price commissions More than 1000
persons have been prosecuted for prof
iteering and enormous stores of food
stuffs have been released. Agreements
as to rates of profit on clothing have
been made with manufacturers.
"The fundamental causes of high
prices are economic and world wide
What we have been able to do has had
considerable effect in holding price S
down. One important phase of the
campaign has been restoration of com
petitive conditions in dealing with
necessities of life.
con Tuesday a compelled consent
decree will be filed preventing the FIVE
great Chicago packing companies from
carrying on any except meat busi-
ness"
In reference to the so-called "whis-
ky rebellion" in Michigan, Mr.. Palmer
said it had come up since he left Wash
ington, and that he had sent the De
partment of Justice a telegram author

aaopted--and 1t was charged by many
OF the women that only such as were
approved by the high command were
read-the convention was turned into
a testimonial meeting for the leader of
Tammany Hall.
Express Admiration for Murphy
1t started when Miss Matthews, the
associate leader of the 10th Assembly
District of New York City, said:
we women Of New York CITY go to
church as regularly and keep the Ten
commandments as we'll as the upstate
women"
This was received with applause only
shghtly less in volume than was ac-
corded Mrs. Robert A. Ncol, of Elmira,
chairman of the woman's division of
the Chemung County Democratic Com
mlttee, when she proclaimed in ring
ing tones:
I'm a Tammany woman upstate"
Which caused Mrs. Morse, of Buff
falo, to exclaim:
I'VE all love Mr.. Murphy upstate"
eve in New York City love Mr..
Murphy because of his goodness"
The Tammany delegation cheered.
The convention unanimously adopted
rule providing that the yearly dues
OF the committee of 1000, made up en-
tirely of women, should be 81. Then
Mrs. Crosby asked that this be made
committee of 10000, "as it would
require that many dollars to organize
the Democratic women of the state"
1t was the sense of the convention that
this should be done.
Many Districts Unorganized
Mrs. Morse, chairman of a sub-com-
mlttee of the committee Of 1000, said
that there were many communities In
the state where there was not woman
Dem ocratic voter.
This does not mean that there are
not Democratic women in these COM
munities," said Mrs. Morse, "but that
the men Democrats have not been zeal
Gus in having their women folks vote.
This must be remedied, as the Republi-
can women are we'll organized every
where"
Mrs. Morse said that the committee
OF 1000, or the committee of 10000,
would visit every hamlet before next
September, so that there would be
militant organization Of Democratic
women in each community.

Reports l have are that the local

Che wine manufactured illicitly." said
Mr.. Palmer. THAT is a matter which
should be easily adjusted"
Mr.. Palmer hinted in an address at
public reception tonight that further
deportations of radicals would be con-
Quoted and said the only way to kill
radicalism was to send its chief. ex-
ponents to the countries they came
from.
Former President Roosevelt had done
more to bring about clearer under
standing between capital and labor on
matters directly affecting them than
any other one man up to his time, Mr..
Palmer said.

Wood Files Petition
In Ohio as Primary
Rival of Harding
General to Seek Preferential
Choice as Well as States
Quota of 48 Delegates
to Chicago Convention

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 25.-Ohio, a
pivotal state in Presidential elections.
and which promises to be one Of the
chief battle-ground next Novembtr, is
to be also one of the chief storm
centers in tho selection Of delegates
to the Republican National Convention
This was made certain to-day when
Major General Leonard Wood formally
entered the state to contest with
Harding the preferential choice of
Ohio's voters for President, and also
for the. states forty-eight delegates
to the Chicago convention. The Ohio
primary will be held April 81.
General Woods declaration of can
ddacy was filed late to-day with the
Secretary of State by John H. Price
his Ohio campaign manager.
Simultaneous with the filing OF
Woods petition, james R. Garfield, OF
Cleveland, Secretary of the interior
under Roosevelt, also filed as candi-
date for President. His candidacy
however, it was explained at General
Woods headquarters, is solely for the
purpose Of giving Wood candidates fo1
delegate a second choice preference, as
required by the Ohio primary law.
1nasmuch, however, as his filing as q
Presidential candidate will place his
name on the preferential primary bal.
lot along with the names of Senator
Harding and General Wood, the gen
erals managers are trying to figure
out some way in which his name may
be kept off the preferential ballot.
Senator Harding's headquarters has
not announced full list of Harding
delegates, and it is expected that nc
such announcement will be made prior
to their filing nominating petitions. A
number of Harding delegates already
have filed petitions. Candidates for
delegate must have their nominating
petitions on file by Friday midnight.

Defends Ohio Referendum
Brief Filed in Appeals ON Pro-
hibition and Suffrage

WASHINGTON, Feb 25.-Validity of
the referendum amendment to the Ohio
constitution was defended in a brief
filed to-day in the Supreme Court by
Attorney General Price of that state
IN connection with appeals from state
court DEGREES refusing to enjoin the
referendum submission of the Federal
prohibition and woman suffrage amend
ments.
'.The Constitution of the United
states have power to abolish their
shall have any particular form of leg
islature," said the brief in arguing for
the referendum. "The people of the
states have power to abolihs their
general assemblies and take into their
own hands all matters of legislation.
Such authority as the legislatures have
to ratify amendments to the Federal
Constitution is not mandatory but per-
missive."

Ripe Olive Peril Removed by
Change in Preserving Method

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Ripe olives,
which have caused many deaths recent
ly from poisoning, may be eater with
impunity within few months as q
result Of changes being made in pre-
serving methods, DR.. Carl Alsberg
chief of the bureau of chemistry of
the Department of Agriculture, stated
to-day.
One of the principal packing changes,
DR.. Alsberg said, is abandoning glass
containers, which prevent proper ster-
lization. All cases Of ripe olive poison
ing have originated from olives packed
in glass, headed, and none have re-
suited from olives packed in tin cans
or from picked green olives"

Harding Sees Ne,u Era
For Capital and Labor
Larger Wnge viii Abide, He
Says, but viii Be Backward
Step Without added e ficie1,cy

PROVIDENCE, Feb. 25.-The time
has come for the government to relin-
qulsh control of industry, United
States Senator Harding, of Ohio, de-
clared in an address at the annual
dinner of the Providence Chamber of
Commerce tonight.
"We shackled. regulated restrained,
rerroved and advised during the war,
and it was accepted as war neces-
slty, but now we are at peace-actual
peace, if not formal peace-and it is
tune to unshackle.' he said. 1--WE need
vastly more freedom than we do reg
ulation and we need the restored free
dom Of business and men.
"There will be no return to pre-war
conditions in industry or commerce.
Capital and workmen are facing a new
order. The large wage will abide-it
has been the legacy of war since our
Republic began. Without the added
efficiency, it will prove a backward
step.
II believe in the collective bargain
ing or workmen so long as it does not
deny any American the fullness of his
freedom. But the bargain must be
binding on all parties to the contract"
Production is the call of the world
to-day, Senator Harding said.
