politicians nay that a smoothly oiled
plan OF campaign to make william
g. McAdoo tho democratic prcsidan'
tial nominee In 1924 10 already under
way.
The eamrnlgn In favor OF the for.
NOR secretary Of the treasury and
son.Inlaw af Ex.ProsIdent Wilson
really began some months ago. but
now that the elections are over new
and moro extensive plans are boing
drafted and the McAdoo boom "a
being put undor way IN earnest.
From nov on the activities Of Nc
Adoo's political supporters VIII be
evident IN all sections OF the coun'
try. For one thing McAdoo himself,
who has bcvn living the quiet life
out IN California ainco the last dem.
ocratlc national convention. will step
out more into the limeiight. llc will
make more speeches. wrlto moro let
tera for publication and will general
ly conduct himself moro like q pres.
ldential candidate. However as
part OF the game he likely will 70
on denying that he has any prcsi.
Dental aspirations.
Tho McAdoo hackers In the demo.
cratic party are more confident than
ever since the elections. They be.
Hove that the defeat OF Senator
pomcrene In Ohio put McAdoo's
atrongest potential opponent for the
democratic nomination cffcctuaiiy out
Of the running.
They feel. too. that the reelection
OF Representative Fitzgerald. repub.
llcan. In James VI. Coxis home dis
trlct In Ohio has madc materially
easier the sidetracking OF Cox. They
we're more afraid Of Pomereno than
Cox, anyway.
Want to Get the Jump.
Believing they have the inside
track now. the McAdoo supporters
are out TO keep the Jump on the
other factions within the democratic
party. Plans are being carefully
laid TO push the McAdoo movement
into all the states at once. In the
hopes Of lining up the party orga-
nizatlon In plenty OF time to insure
McAdoo control of the national con-
vention two years hence.
The McAdoo men claim they have
no fear of Al Smith OF New York,
who looms MS the Tammany Hall
presidential candidate in 1924. And
In this connection McAdoo leaders
say omphntically that they viii not
seek to bargain with Tammany for
support.
His split with Tammany Hall dur.
ing the Wilson administration was
believed to be one of the chief rea-
sonss McAdoo moved last year from
New York to new political quarters
in California.
Some of the McAdoo leaders, II Is
understood, feel that Woodrow VIII
son can be induced to throw his
support to his son-in-law In the
next democratic national convention.
II will not be surprise IL Bernard
Baruch, Josephus Daniels, Daniel G.
Roper, Huston Thompson. Robert
Woolley or some other McAdoo ennis
sary makes a call at the former
presidents home on s street shortly
to get Mr.~7Wilson's attitude.
