5. Mr.. McAdoo went East n
week ago and when the writer
saw him in Chicago he looked
well, but said he was bound for
a quiet summer on Long Island.
He took a deep interest in the
Republican National Convention
and gave the impression that he
would welcome. a chance to get
into the campaign and fight.
8. Less than q week later Mr..
McAdoo announced his irrevo-
cable decision not to allow his
name to be presented to the
Democratic National Convention.
That ends the catalogue OF fact
and circumstances, but something hap

TWO REASONS FOR THE WITH
DRAWAL OF MeADOO.


plausible. Therefore, either Mr.. Nc
Adoo consulted his physician, who
absolutely forbade his entering a
Campaign or else Mr.. McAdoo found
a personal note sent directly or in
directly by President Woodrow Will
son telling him the most obvious
thing in the world-namely, that in
view of their relationship it would
be embarrassing to have Mr.. McAdoo
permit his name or his candidacy to
be presented to the Democratic Ma
tional convention.
On the same day, Mr.. Wilson re-
terated in the public prints what he
told Mr.. Cummings three weeks be-
fore-that he would not dictate to
the Democratic Party on the choice
Of a nominee. Woodrow Wilson Is a
shrewder politician than most people
credit him with being. He knows that
the Republicans would say he OBJ
tanned the nomination for his son-in-
law, or that the latter won the nom
ination through the influence of the
! Wilson Administration, and he real
lied that the only thing to do was
| to keep hands off. Then, If the
Democrats saw fit to nominate Nc
Adoo, 1t would be the free and UNI
trnmmelled choice of the convention.

the MoAdoo situation, q telegram
came back promptly from Mr.. Roper
saying that he feared his coming to
San Francisco might be construed as
a reflection upon the sincerity Of Mr..
McAdOo's public statement declining
to be n candidate.
SO the McAdoo forces here are liter
ally up in the air. Many delegates
and leaders declare they are going
through with the plan to draft Nc
Adoo for the nomination. They will
find it difficult TO do 50, as already the
McAdoo strength Is disintegrating be-
cause of his public statement and the
absence of his recognized spokesman.
Something happened in the last week,
for It was fully expected that Roper
and his lieutenants would be on the
Job. That something was either the
advice Of a physician or member OF
the McAdoo family or both.
Meanwhile Gov, Cox gains ground
and Attorney General Palmer wins
some original McAdoo men. Blu
Palmer is the Lowden OF the con
Nention. He is popular with thu

the unfairness of the Judgments OF

Now after the lapse of nine
teen centuries avarice and greed.
malice and envy still rankle in
human hearts. Priests and cid

tortion and usury. Those who
hold public trusts still sacrifice

We believe that If the various groups men

to three months requirements. beginning the
winter with this supply on hand, the result
will be decided sterilization of the coal in
dustry. considerable measure of relief to the
carriers, and general economic saving to the
public and the nation, and, further that the
practice would result in the minimizing OF the
Communicating and confscation of coal on the
theory of priority. We feel, too, that unless
some plan of this kind is adopted we are
bound to have recurring conditions of coal
shortage in the winter MONTHS as in the past
three years, and that no need for such stu
