The Republicans say he will weaken

Although his boom is booming again
after an adjournment of several
months following the death of Presi-
dent Harding, it does not appear that
Mr.. Ford has ghost of n chance of
capturing either the Democratic or
Republican nomination.
There is a very good chance. how
ever. that he may have some pledged
delegates in both conventions if his
managers go ahead with their plans
for placing him in the primaries of

Democratic leaders have sent out

On the one side, he said. were the
occidental nations, most of the Slays

And on the other the central en-
pires and another part of Asia.
The Slavs, he considers. have al
ways been receptive of western ideas,
and now are definitely attached TO
western culture.
The victory of the western powers,
he believes, marks the end of the long
republican revolutionary period begun
over n hundred years ago with the
United States Declaration of indie
pendence and the French revolution.
This victory. he thinks. has consc-
Grated the final triumph OF democracy

TO run on an independent ticket, which
now seems probable.
Henry Ford is known as dry OF
the true believer type and it is GER
tain his candidacy would be gratifying
to large proportion Of the dry Gle
ment of the country.
1t is perfectly apparent that the Re
publican party is going TO make a
great bid for the dry vote. no matter
whom its candidate NAV be.
Mr.. Coolidge already has undertaken
to carry out the Harding policy for
better enforcement as evidenced by
his conference in Washington TODAY
with the governors of nearly two
thirds of the states Of the Union.
Want Liberal" Treatment.
With Mr.. Ford and the Republican
candidates splitting the dry vote. the
wet democrats will make a strong
fight in their convention for what they
term Liberal" treatment OF the pro-
hibition question.
Whether they can gain any real
ground along that line is questionable.
1t is true that a platform declara-
ton requires only a majority vote in
the Democratic convention whereas
the nominee of the party must be
named by two-thirds vote.
Therefore it would be easier TO de-
clare for modification than it would
be TO nominate modificationist.
Even in Democratic ranks the sen
timent for prohibition still is strong
in the South and West and although
some of the big Eastern states will
have powerful delegations to fight for
modification plank. they will find
the most militant of opposition head
ed as usual by the never-say-die Will
liam Jennings Bryan.

New York, Oct. 20.-New York''
"wet" Democrats have been watching
the nationwide struggle of some aspir'
ants for the presidency to clint
aboard the water wagon the past week
with q feeling akin to elation.
The vets figure it out that the wild
scramble 10 grab the prohibition vote
may scatter that very same vote and
give modificationist' 8 chance al
the polls.
The death Of President Harding,
who had espoused the cause of prohi-
bition during the last few months OF
his life. seems 10 have left the field
open for all who seek dry and dusty
road TO the White House.
Mr.. Harding had virtually been as
sured the support of the organized
"drys" and was counting heavily upon
that vote as means of reelection.
Now there is general rush to get
into linen busters.
As a result of the weeks maneuver-
ing. it is shown that:
!, Mr.. Ford is out for the dry vote.
4 Mr.. Pinchot is out for the dry vote.
Mr.. McAdoo is out of the dry
vote.
And Mr.. Coolidge does not see why
any one sltuld be casting wet eyes
at him.
Campaign Is Startede
The recrudescence of the Ford
boom and the precipitation of the wet
and dry issue into the campaign. ali
within the space of a few days. have
given politics such an impulse that
many persons are inclined TO date the
beginning of the 1924 presidential
race from these ides of October.
The querulous position taken b,
Governor Pnchot toward the national
administration on the prohibition en-
forcement issue has been regarded as
political trouble enough for one week.
but when this incident was followed
up by Ford activities throughout the
country. eliminating in an announce
ment from the chairman of the prohi-
bition party's national committee. that
Mr.. Ford could have the prohibition
list nomination for President il he
cared for it. the politicians began TO
sit up and take notice in earnest.
Naturally Mr.. Ford would not be
content with the prohibitionist nom.
ination alone.
As a separate and distinct party.
the prohibitionists have been unable
TO make any Roadway in the past.
In the 1920 election out of nearly
2I.000,000. votes cast. the prohibition
candidate got a grand total of $780,
40S.
Prohibition in politics began to be
effective only when the anti-saloon
league began boring from within the
two old parties. just as labor had
been some years before.

Now your grocer has Quaker
Oats in two styles. One the kind
you have always known-the other
is Quick Quaker.
Quick Quaker cooks In from 5 to
S minutes. And it cooks to perfec-
tion. So it is almost like a ready
cooked dish.
No other oat flakes on the market
cook anywhere near so quickly.
The styles are identical in
quality and favor. Both are faxed
from The finest grains only-just the
rich, plump, flavory oats. A bushel
of choice oats yields but ten pounds
OF these delicious flakes.
But in Quick Quaker the oats arc
cut before taking. They are rolled
very thin and partly cooked. So the
fakes are smaller and thinner-that
is all. And those small, thin fakes
cook quickly.
Ask for Quick Quaker If you want
this style. Your grocer has both.
But always get Quaker Oats for
their delightful flavor.
