The result is that the uneven com

organization of this kind. while not

To what extent state or the federal

II might pay state to educate some

WILSON BACK OF WHITE IN CALL,
 IS NEW REPORT
General Understanding Is That No Effort WM Be Made to Groom Presi-
 dential Candidates
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau, The Age Herald,
 ZOO Dayidaox, RuIIdiug


 Washington, October 12.-(Speclai.) } It Is the general understanding among democrats. in Washington that prior to calling the national demo- cratic committee together for Move n- Der l, in Chicago. Chairman George White secured promises from a ma jcrity of the members of the commit tee that no effort would be made to groom presidential candidates or to elect new chairman of the commit tee.
 A very interesting additional re- port has 1t that the meeting was called at the instance of Woodrow Wilson. former President, or by the insistence of those members who have always stood very close to the former President It is even said that the keynote of the meeting might consist of Q message from Mir. Wilson. The so-called Cox or anti Wilson faction, or rather anti-M Adoo, faction of the committee, Is sal to have agreed to the meeting, and the programme involving the Wilson contribution upon the theory that the committee and through 1t the party must get together in preparing for the congressional election next year. There will be a great deal of dis cussion. it Is intimated, regarding the ministration to live up to its cam paign pledges. There will be repeat :. ed comparisons made between the manner In which Harding does things and the manner In which Wilson performed.

Will Not Forget
 Former President
 on Armistice Day

Washington, october 12.--(Spe- cial.)-The people of the United States who gather in Washington November II to witness the inter- ment of the unknown American hero from the fields of Flanders, and to note the first formal sitting of the conference for the limitation of armament. will not permit Woodrow Wilson to be forgotten or even to go unsung.
 From what is reported today, a vast throng following the interment of the soldier. a throng of demo- crats and republicans and non-par- tisans representing every state of the union. will visit the Wilson home on S Street. It is understood that some individual. preferably Of non-partisan status. will address the former President, and remind him that the day Is the anniversary of the cessation of hostilities between the allied and central powers of the world, and that it Is essential to the proper celebration of the day that he be given his share of the honors. Much, of course. will be said of Wilson's effort to establish a league of nations, and of the republican senators who, through political req son or otherwise "broke the heart of the world"
 It is regarded as probable tha. the former President will make re- ply to the representation of his friends, The plans, however, have taken no shape as yet.
