WOMEN ADVISED
TO STICK TO PARTY
Gov. Miller Congratulates New
National Republican

The importance Of holding the recent
~ enfranchised citizens within the party
organization was emphasized by Gov.
Miller in telegram read at the house,
warming yesterday Of the Woman's
National Republican Club. 3S West Thir-
ty-ninth street. Speakers and others
who sent greetings also advised strict
adherence to the organization.
The Governors telegram, which was
received with applause. congratulated
the officers on the formation Of their
club and commended it's purposes. He
declared that no heartily approved of II
and he reiterated that these purposes
were such as he had commended in his
recent address before the New York
State League OF Women Voters. "Al-
low me to praise the wisdom which leads
you to avoid tho semblance Of nom
partisanship" the message said. land
to ally yourselves openly with one OF the
two great political ORGANIZATIONS. BY
associating yourselves with great po-
litical party you put away the sugges-
ton Of forming woman's party"
Herbert Hoover IN q snort speech also
praised the women for their party align
ment.
The club, which Ia the first Of its kind
to be organised by women voters. owes
much of It's decorative charm to Mrs.
Charles II. Sabin and Mrs. Arthur T..
Lott. together with the assistance Of a
score Of ardent Republican sisters who
are responsible for this woman's politi-
cal meeting place.
Already the club has a membership
OF 800. including residents and non-resi-
dents, q number far in excess of that
which can be accommodated in the two
lofts Of the building. But the address
Is temporary. for the club hopes soon
to have its own commodious house.
Guests at the opening tea IN the after
noon filled the two big lounging rooms
and the reception rooms. and at night
an even bigger crowd packed the two
floors to hear the speakers greet tho

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-AIempers of

speeches or whether we darce?"
Speaking IS a representative CT the
National Community Centre Organiza-
tion. Miss Wilson declared more could
be accomplished toward true self-gov-
ernnient and necessary social reforms
by the organization OF local groups into
cooperative. thinking bodies than throug
the workings of party organizations. On
this ground she advised immediat te dis
bandment OF the National Woman's
Party. which, she said, was not in a
broad sense "non-partisan." but "ex-
elusive" and orga nizcd for the purpose
of building up a woman's machine
which would not be ''nore honest OF
effective than a mans Machine
Prior to Miss Wilson'S address, how.

tional Woman's Party had placed be-

that the organization be continued

In compliment TO Mr.. White, not to Of

it had been regarded by some as often

Sharp talk developed soon after the
session opened, when Mr.. Love, ex-
planning why he Believed meeting OF
the full committee was desirable, sa id
the chairman did not have authority to
name the executive committee. He said
he had gone over the records and could

Hostility Is Denied.
The arguments for an early meeting
OF the committee were made by Mr..
Love, Mr.. Woolley, Samuel Is. Amidon OF
Kansas, Miss Mary Archer OF Pennsyl-
vania, Isidor Dockweiler Of California
James d. Moyie Of Utah and Miss Charl
Williams OF Tennessee. In general they
took the position that meeting was
desirable in order to put the Democrat tic
machinery In proper working order, but
they all specifically denied their pur-
pose was TO depose Chairman White or
to boost anv individual as a Preeiden.
tial candidate. They regretted, they
said. that The movement had been in
terpreted as being in the interest of MIR
McAdoo.
Chairman White led the arguments
against calling the full committee. talk
ing the stand that the executive COM
ni;tee was entirely capable of dealing
with the present situation that q meet
ing would merely tend TO further party
discord and that IL would be well TO
walt for time before starting any
heavy political activity. at least until
the Republicans got into Office and had
an opportunity Of creating few issues
which the Democrats could fight. In
this he was upheld by number OF men,
bers OF the committee. but il remained
for Homer 8. Cummings Of Connecticut,
one time chairman of the committee, to
swing the tide to Mr.. White.
Mr.. Cummings declared II would be
inexpedient to have a meeting OF the
committee at this time. particularly in
view OF the fact that the purpose had

STATE DEMOCRATIC
REVOLT UNDER WAY
Reform Leaders Organize at
Luncheon Given by Osborn
and Gerard.
M'ADOO GROUP PROMINENT
Resignation Of Chairman Far
ley Likely to Be all Object
to Be Sought.

Reorganization of the Democratic
State machine is the avowed object OF
a movement started yesterday at a
luncheon In the Downtown Association.
William Church Osborn. at one time
chairman of the State Committee, who
has taken part in a number OF rebellions
against the State leadership of Charles
f. Murphy. and James W. Gerard, for
mer Ambassador to Germany, were the
hosts for about twenty men, most OF
them OF the reform or independent stripe
The presence OF former Gov. Alfred E..
Smith. whose allegiance to Tamnany is
unquestioned. was unexplained except
by the statement OF one OF the hosts
that II was sought TO have all elements
OF the party represented Mr. Smith
refused to discuss the affair, except to
say he had been invited and had ac-
cepted. 1t was suggested that possibly
his reputed interest In the United States
Senate nonina tion in 1922 might be In
volved.
The fact that Bernard Baruch. Stuart
G. Gibboney and other close friends OF
William G. McAdoo were picked as mem
bers OF the group was responsible for
an inference drawn by some politicians
that the move might be in the interest OF
the son-in-law of President Wilson.
However. II was said by politicians
that Mr.. McAdoo was not on good terms
with Mr.. Murphy and the present con-
troll of the New York State organization.
and IL he had any ambitions to be the
Presidential nominee in 1924 il would
be an important factor to have the back
ing Of his home State.
II was explained that Mr. BAruch
could not attend the luncheon because
of absence from town. The GROUP in
cludes William II. Edwards, Collector OF
Internal Revenue, who had been sud
denly called to Washington. and Martin
Vogel. former head OF the Sub-Treasury
IN this city. Both served under Mr.. Nc
Adoo when he was Secretary of the
Treasury. Mr.. Gibboney's firm has been
counsel for the Federal Reserve Bank
in this district.

Hert Pays rimeiy visit.

There are intensive drives under way
for Representative J. Bsscom slemp OF
Virginia, former United States Senator
Newell Saunders OF Tennessee. T. III.
Houston Of Chattanooga and one or two
others. But coincidence sometimes plays
an important part In the solution of
just such political problems and the
arrival to-day OF A. Tobias Hert of
Kentucky may be another instance. Mr..
Hert was on his way home from Cali
fornia by way OF New Orleans and
stopped over for a call upon Mr. Har-
ding. His arrival. practically on the
heels OF Mr.. Lowden's message of dec
lfnation. led to speculation as to whether
he might be asked to take the navy
portfolio.
Mr.. Hert is national committeeman
from Kentucky and had been mentioned
as a possible Secretary OF War He
has extensive business interests in
Louisville and his appointment would
be regarded as a recognition of the de-
nland for Southern representation In the
Cabinet. There has been some effort
also 10 connection with the navy portfolio
to arouse sentiment for Senator Miles
Poirdcxter OF Washington on the ground
that he would represent the Pacific
coaHt but this has not progressed be-
yopd the point Of his informing Mr..
Herding that Senator Poindexter was IN,
receptive mood.

Hands on City Campaign.

Mr.. Osborn said he and his friends had
not the slightest intention OF dabbling
In the municipal situation this fall or
OF taking any part in the reorganization
of the national committee.
I'VE discussed a number OF plans .
he added, Ito bring about more effec-
tive Democratic organizat ton in New
York State. The discussion was entirely
cheerful and friendly. We have no axes
to grind. no tomahawks to brandish."
Bylaws were adopted and these Of
ficers chosen: Mr.. Osborn, president;
Mr.. Agar, vice-chairman MIR. Kent.
treasurer, and former Representative
Brown, secretary. Mr.. Gerard. Mr.. Polk
and Mr.. Roosevelt were named as an
executive committee, with power to add
to their number.
Mr.. Osborn said that Mr.. McAdoo had
not been invited to participate.
When someone suggested to Mr.. Os-
born that the presence Of former Gov
Smith might be taken TO mean either
that he had broken with Charles r. MUIR
ply or that he had been taken In to
form connecting link between the re-
formers and Tammany Hall. the reply
was: II scarcely think either inference
would be Justified
IL Is understood one of the first things
the group would like to accomplish Is
the resignation Of w. w. Farley. present
chairman OF the State Committee, who
has always played in closely with Tam
many Hall and Is held responsible for
the disruption Of the organization up

Sr. AUGUSTINE, Feb. 17.-Former
Gov. Frank o. Lowden Of Illinois to-
day was definitely eliminated as a
Cabinet possibility. President-elect
Harding himself made the announce
ment- with an accompanying express
sion of keen regret Mr.. Harding had
made no specific offer Of a place to
Mr.. Lowden. but it was well known
that he would have appointed him
Secretary of the Navy II the Illinois
man had been In a position to accept.
"Mr. Lowden informs me-" Mr..
Harding said, "that because Of his
personal affairs he finds it impossible
10 enter the public service at this time.
You may say that I am sorry"
In reply TO question whether Mr..
Lowden might be expected to accept a
diplomatic post. which has been sug-
gested, Mr.. Harding repeated: II said
that Mr.. Lowden had found it impossi-
BILE to enter the public service"
Mr.. Harding was then asked II Mr.
Lowden's definite declinauon would
necessitate a shift Of the Cabinet ap-
pointees already decided upon or other
wise retard the work OF completing his
slate. His reply was: "Oh. no; IL is only
matter of personal disappointment to
me. I should have liked to have Mr..
Mr.. Lowden become part Of the ad-
ministration."
One immediate effect OF Mr.. Lowden's
elimination. however, Is that It has ma
terially strengthened the chances Of .
Southerner being brought into the Cab

have been endeavorins to impress Mr.
Harding with the desirability OF doing
