(By The Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The nominal
ton of Thomas F. Watson to sue
coed Hoke Smith, as United States
Senator from Georgia, represents
something of a blow to the Demo
cratic party" George White, chair
man of the Democratic National Com

THE fact that Watson has been
nominated in Georgia, despite his OPP
position to the League of Nations in
any form constitutes a temporary
loss to u.s." he said.
His nomination, | believe, result
ed not so much from his attitude on
any national question, however, as
from the support accorded him by a
large personal following. 1t is my
opinion that the Georgia Democrats
nominated Watson, the man, in the
primaries. / do not believe the nomi-
nation expressed the view of the
Georgia electorate on the League is
