When you know the cause of dis

SMITHS LOVE FOR
 HITCHCOCK SURPRISING

Washington, January 1e-(Special. l- since last Thursday when the democrats attempted to elect a leader to guide them Tn the senate, and since Senator Smith or Georgia explained his inability Co vote for either Senator Underwood or Senator Hitchcock because of his love Tor each, the wonder has grown as to Why Senator Smith of Georgia is so fond of the Nebraska Senator
 For it is true that in his capacity as leader of the minority in the treaty fight, Senator Hitchcock treated Sen ator Smith of Georgia with a lack of consideration which was tantamount to contempt.
 When the struggle was at fever heat there was great dissatisfaction on the part of administration senators that Sen ator Smith of Georgia had taken stand in favor of reservations to the league of nations-a stand directly opposed to ths stand of the President Possibly with that dissatisfaction paramount, Senator Hitchcock in calling for a democratic caucus, purposely omitted Senator Smith of Georgia In furnishing list of deni- ccratic senators, to the sergeant-at- arms who was expected to do the rn- viting, Senator Hitchcock drew a pencil mark through the name of Senator Smith of Georgia
 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska by that act, practically read Senator Smith of Georgia out of the democratic party. For that reason. it is difficult for Wash ington observers to understand the love which Senator Smith of Georgia enter tains for Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska

 The 'big army men of congress bring pressure to bear on the Southerners, but it apparently avails nothing An unof. ficial canvass of the House membership reveals the South standing as its repre- sentatives on the military committee, in a ratio of to 1, against universal train ing. It's attitude is due to fear of a ninitaristic regime in the United States. repugnance to what is termed conscrip- tion in times of peace, and to a hesi. tancy regarding the wisdom of educating the negro in the use of military weapons

both Fundamentally, as result of the eXigencies of birth, he is republican. But the reactionary tendencies of the re- publican party are repugnant to Hoover. For that reason, "advanced" demo- crats have considered him a democrat.
 It is true that the republicans fear Hoover as possible candidate of the dem ocratic party. They know that as the candidate of the party, he would carry the south irrespective of his stand on any particular question, or his previous political environment. With the scVah behind him, Hoover would be formidable because of his uplifting" theories which appeal to non-partisans to progress sives" of the republican party, and to the women of the country. There Is no question but that Hoover is strong with the female contingent of the voting population.
 MT. Wilson is said to favor Hoover be- cause of the foregoing facts which rep resent him very strong man. Mir Wit- son, it is learned from indisputable sources, is very anxious to be succeeded 6y democrat He seeks vindication, and as he will not be candidate, he must pin his hope to the man he thinks can most certainly carry the day. He is fearful that McAdoo cannot win He thinks that the people of the United States are against the rule of primogeni- ture under which Tn England the eldest son succeeds his father as ruler And Mir. Wilson knows. too, that all the people who oppose the present admins tration will oppose McAdoo.
 But the practical element of the demo cratic party does not favor Hoover, and differs from the President in his belief that McAdoo cannot win. As a matter of fact. it is believed as result of ir- terviewing practically all the democratic senators, that both Palmer and McAdoo are stronger than Hoover. Hoover is handicapped in the fact that he is politically capable of living both in the republican and democratic camps. In ada oition, he rendered highly important service, but in the role of czar He was effective when he could rule with or without law, when he could go to the extent of telling the people what they could and could not have on their breaa- fast table. The people, it is indicated, are tired of czarism. For that reason, they fear Hoover. There are signs. prac- tieai politicians admit, that the people want to return to the good old" days when party man, whether republican or democrat. will occupy the White House.

But more to the point, is the report that Alabama cor porations, with outside headquarters hau ulscoNefed new features not an ticiupated.

BRYAN URGED DEMOCRATS
 TO SURRENDER AND LEAVE

Washington, January 19.-tSpecial9-- Bryan really said it.
 Since the publication of the original story, this bureau has received inquir- ies from Alabama, Georgia, Flor:Sa, Mississippi and Tennessee as to whether or not William Jennings Bryan really, unn11stakably, unequivocally said That whenever the republicans pos-- sessed a majority vote of the senate in favor of sof any set of reservations to the league of nations covenant, the dem ocrats, by deliberately absenting thefn- selves, should transform that republican ma jority into two-thirds majority.
 The, answer is in the affirmative He said it. He repeatedly said it. He meant it.
 He advocated surrender of the Presi- dents forces without striking blow in defense of itself or the contentious of the President He thought it wise for the democrats to be too proud to fight.

Many strong influences are fighting him all the time. but these. in comparison to the whole body of citizens, do not strike me as powerful enough to en- compass his defeat.
 There are to my mind two reasons for this first. a large and effective per sonal following. and second, marked ability both as man and leader. Many who do not approve his course admire his independence, and will stand by him because they believe he will follow to the end any course his 1udg- ment dictates. It's a unique complt- ment to strong. personal and political personality.
