Charles w. Morse Among Flnan-
clers Who Support "Crown
Princes" Boom.
By ,. Il. WATSON.

SAN FRANCISCO. July 2.-AntiIMc-
Adoo forces. led by New York, To-Day
charged Charles w. Morse. shipping
magnate and Wall Street operator
with being one OF the money ring
behind the candidacy OF William gibbs
McAdoo.
Both the Cox and the Palmer booms
have suffered from gas and gossip
booms thrown into the convention by
McAdoo hackers.
SEE WALL STREET BACKING.
Cox and Palmer boomers met these
gossipers with the statement that the
McAdoo forces are backed by bank
ing interests Identical with those
which dictated the nomination OF
Warren q. Harding. Stuart Glib
honey, OF New York and Washington
was pointed out as the active director
for the Presidents son-in-law on the
convention floor.
Anti-McAdoo forces say that GID
bony acted as attorney for Morse
prior to and during the late investl'
cation of Morse's AFFAIRS.
Thomas l.. Chadbourne and Bernard
Baruch are also lined up as being
active in forwarding the McAdoo can
didacy.
The situation. as 1t develops to
day, follows:
The president has been allowed
practically a free hand In debating
the Democratic party policies as
means OF vindication and party IN
dorsement for his Administration
BARUCH KEEPS IN TOUCH.
But his plan to nominate McAdot
as his successor is meeting with sucf
stubborn opposition that II Is in dan
ger OF defeat.
The third factor in the nomination
contest is Wall Street. which has
not yet 'openly showed its hand
Agents Of Baruch and Chadbourn'
are in hourly touch by wire with th'
convention hall and McAdoo hool
leaders. Auti-McAdoo forces have
been canvassed and their opposition
found adamant.
New York leaders state that nna
canvass OF the McAdoo forces was
being made last night in preparation
for a showdown today. The tally, II
IL predicted, will be slightly below the
necessary two-thirds majority. Charles
+. Murphy predicted that something
would develop either last night
or today" He said this before ne
went into conference with leaders OF
the New Jersey, Illinois, and Massa'
chusetts delegations at the conven'
ton hall yesterday.

And suppose nc called II "day-ay'
and let his voice down on day" ana
make II soar up In a funny squeak
on "yay.".
You'd reach up and pull the patrol
box frst, and then while you waited
for the police you'd talk TO him

But IL you were sitting in con-
vention. and should see the same

wouldn't be frightened or Jared In

dency and not trying to butt INTO the

You couldn't explain why man

that you didn't know what on earth

that in and around convention no

T0DEMOCRATS
Militant Sutfragists May Yet
Lay Siege to San Fran
cisco Convention.
BY DAVID NJ. CHURCH.,
Intern atiOnal News Service.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2.-The
Democratic national convention may
yet undergo a siege of militant suf-
fragettes.
Suffragists were called into session
today by Mrs. Abby Scott Baker TO
consider what steps should be takcn
with regard to forcing the conven-
ton to bring its weight to bear upon
executives If Democratic States in
order that the suffrage ameroment
may be ratified in time to permit
women to vote in the primaries which
will be held in eight States in Au-
gust
Something mas to be done, and it
looks as though the Democrats would
have to do it," said Mrs. Baker. The
mere insertion of a suffrage plank in
! their platform won't satisfy us-that
would be merely saving the neck Of
the Democratic party. We want the
Democrats to do something about
Tennessee, and North Carolina. If
those two States can be forced to
ratify within the next few weeks, it
seems possible that the American
women may begin to exercise theA
right of franchise this summer. There
are eight States whore the women are
anxious to vote in primaries.
PLAN NOT DECIDED.
"I don't know what we will do, but
rather imagine we will agree on
some method of bringing this ques-
ton squarely before the Tennessee
and North Carolina delegations and
making them responsible for the final
effort to secure ratification in July in
those two States"
Secretary of the Navy Josephus

! fragists in their fight fore early ratifi-
cation, and, according to Mrs. Baker,
he has promised to use his influence
to secure a call for special session
of the North Carolina legislature to
ratify the suffrage amendment.
| While the suffragettes are planning
their stage, the women Of the Demo-
cratic convention are engaged in a
little internal fuss as to the best
methods to follow to secure the fran
chise for their sex early this summer.
OPINIONS ARE DIVIDED.
The women of the Tennessee dele
cation are divided as to whether IL
would be a wise move to urge Gov
ernor Roberts to advance the date of
the special session OF the Tennessee
legislature, in order that ratification
may be complete in time for the
August primaries
Some of the women believe that Il
would not benefit their cause to at
tempt to force the hand of Governor
Roberts. others believe that pres
sure should be brought upon the gov
ernor to call the legislature together
early in July.
with the vote almost within their
grasp. Democratic women are facing
a perplexing problem.
I'VE can't make any false step
now" said Miss Williams today. Not
alone our interests are at stake, but
the interests of all American women.
We must proceed with caution"
The Washington times., 1920-07-02

everybody expects and it's a shame
to have so many people disappointed.
And you'd know, II you had been TO
more than one OF these double cross
tests, that when a nominator said
things about his candidate that
weren't true and couldn't possibly be
true, everybody just laughed inside
himself and said, Wonderful" and
had a good time
BOTH KNEW HE WAS LYING.
And when a man came up to you
In the crowded, smoke-hazy lobby of
the hotel, and pulled you aside In a
solemn manner, and crossed. his heart
and swore to you that his candidate
had 795 votes cinched. yes, said alb
solutely cinched, and would be NOM
mated on the first ballot. when he
knew his candidate couldn't scare up
100 votes with a hay rake, that man
wasn't lying. He knew that you knew
II wasn't so. and you knew that he
knew II wasn't. and so there was no
lie about IT, It's just the great every
four years convention gum. and, OF
course, that's different. And the big
ger the guff the more the man has Ia
teter up and down and waggle his
head and sing-song his voice and pre-
tend to be very much excited. because
that's the game.
II he meant what he said, he would
Just stand up and speak his little
piece, man to man fashion, and sit
down. It's a fascinating game and
pleasant recreation from the harrass-
ing cares of real life, where you are
expected TO say what you mean. There
was once a political convention that
was on the level. but it was held a
great many years ago in country a
long way from this; / think II was
called Skandihooyia, or something
like that, and the people were all saw
ages.

HARDING has been taking va
II cation, indicating that he thinks
he IL President already. Thats
confidence carried right up into the
fourth dumbmension. In order 10
trim a gent like that the Democrats
must pick a bird out OF the con-
yention aviary who measures up to
the BertilIon system of tabulatlng
prominent guys. And just little
bit more.
IIE must be man who is born
II A congenial Democrat, lives a
Democrat and passes away plcklng
democratically at the covers game
to the last He must be all Things
TO all men and never two things 10
the same man.
Ills record must be cleaner than
a wish-bone the day after
THANKSGIVING. and there can be no
alcoholic skeleton in his family
bufret. He must be able to hobble
with the hobnobs, prowl with the
prowletariat, carry water on ooth
shoulders and nothing on his nip,
capitalize his friendships and kiss
babies who amt old enough to night
back.
LIE must be able to take a shower
bath without removing his high
hat. be a diplomutt with the diplo-
NUTS. scratch matches on MS
Adams apple with the roughnecks,
and suffer from lucid moments at
stated intervals.
THE man who is indicated to
carry the Democratic party on
to victory and other emoluments of
office must be a man among men
and a lady among women. He must
be prepared to clip his own lux
uriant scalp and to wear party
toupee. At no time can he be seen
picking his teeth in public. There
must be sacrifices for the good of
the party.
LIE must withstand the shock Of
IL having the next crop OF infants
and Pomeranians labelled in his
honor, and also be master of that
weakest form of speech, the anec-
dote.
LIE must wear socks, holiday or
no holiday. He must veto all
congressional bills first, and read
'em afterward. Gosh! Whatta man!
Whstte man!
THE man who is to win for the
Democrats. II they are to win,
must be able to shake more hands
than Bryan has accepted nomins-

princes by the hand, enemies
by the foot and office-seekers by
the yard. He must be little

No man can be President who
