PROSPECTS FOR
RETAINING CAMP

BY THEODORE TIL1EE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-After
withholding his signature for time,
Senator Lenroot, of Wisconsin, has
signed the report of the Spencer sub
committee on the army camp bill
which recommends that Camp Cor

definite military policy is decided
upon by congress. Senator Lenroot
was not present when the senate
subcommittee voted, Saturday, to
amend the house bill and restore
The Camp Gordon item.
All other members, Republicans
and Democrats, signed the report,
which 2aot only seeks t. preserve
Camp Gordon, but Camps Taylor
and Eustis, that were knitted a ID

For brief period, it is under

about some of the senate amerd-

eventually signed and the report
went to the full military affairs

it even more likely that the senate

NEW YORK WORLD
WANTS HOOVER
FOR PRESIDENT

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-The New
York World in it's leading editorial
today declared for Herbert C. Hoo
yer for president. The World, a
Democratic paper, has been a strong
supporter of President Wilson.
1--WE should be glad to support Mr..
Hoover for president" the editorial
said, ION a platform that represent
ed the historical principles of the
Democratic party. We should be
glad to support him as an independ-
ent candidate on platform Of pro-
gressive liberalism. We should not
hesitate to support him as the Re-
publican candidate on a platform
representing the kind Of government
which Mr.. Hoover has exemplified in
his public career"
The World declares partisan OBJ
jections to Mr.. Hoover are argu-
ments in his favor, adding: 1.-THE
American people are tired of pro-
fessiona1 politicians and disguised
with party politics. The old party
lines have been broken down ...
and in respect to principles both
parties are bankrupt"
Most of the presidential candidates
of both parties, the World says, "are
SO inadequate, in view of the issues
that the next president must meet,
that their aspirations are little short
Of ridiculous. Of all the men
whose names have been mentioned
the World believes Mr.. Hoover alone
measures up to the presidency in the
fullest sense.
For itself, the World does not care
whether Mr.. Hoover calls himself
a Democrat or a Republican or a
progressive or an independent. He
is the kind of man that ought to be
president of the United States, and
he is the man the World intends to
support for president of the United
States regardless of all the artifi-
cial barriers of debased and dis
credited partisanship"
