CHAIRMAN ADAMS
HIS "POiSON GAS" ATTACK ON
ALLIES RESENTED
WILL HAYS MAY SUCCEED
Harding, Ansered by lntemperate Out
burst Against Americas Allies,
Plans General House Clean
ing in Republican Party.

Washington.-Presid Harding IL
believed to have definitely deter
mined to put his campaign for a re
nomination in the hands ef Will s
Hays and to insist upon his resumine
the chairmanship of tile republican,
national committee If he wins in the
convention.
This information was obtained
among political leaders as result OF
Hays conference at the White House
last week. It was strengthened by
news of the break between the presi'
dent and Secretary of State Hughes
with the national committee over the
latters statement attacking European
powers as "bilking" America and en-
gaging in crooked deals
AS the situation now stands, there
is open hostility between the admin
istration heads and the three govern
ing committees of the party over the
presidents world court issue. 1t
would not surprise politicians here
il the administration should make
formal demands for reorganization
not only of the national committee
with the substitution of Hays Lhe
present chairman, John T. Adams, but
of the senatorial and congressional
committees as we'll.
The senatorial committee is headed
by Senator George H. Moses, one pi
the irreconcilable group in the Leagte
of Nations fight, and opposed to the
world court The congressional com.
mittee is headed by Representative
William R. Wood of Indiana, Uho
Joined Senator Watson of that state
in warning" the president that sup
port of the world court would split
the party.
Chairman Adams is "irreconcilable"
on the League of Nations issue. andvis
also opposed to the world court.
| For these reasons. it is believed
President Harding will make some de-
mand for restitution Of the governing
committees with a view to bringing
them more into harmony with his
own views. While he has no power
to compel the senators and represen-
tatives to select chairmen OF his own
choosing, it is regarded as certain that
he will endeavor, through party lead
ers in the two houses, to effect some
sort of reorganization which will re-
move the hostility now existing.
Chairman Adams declined to make
any comment on the demand made by
Secretary Hughes for retraction OF the
committee statement which was de-
clared to be so offensive to the allies.
He said The committee has always
tried to work in harmony with the
heads OF the administrator.

BALDWIN NAMED
PRIME MINISTER
TORIES RETAIN POWER, BUT
FACE TRYING PERIOD.
LORD CURZ0N LOSES PLACE
with laborites on Warpath, King
Declines to Establish a Peer
In Downing Street-New
Premier Is Only Sc.

London. - Hon. Stanley Baldwin
was named as premier this afternoon
by King George. Sir Robert Horne
who was chancellor of the exchequer
in the Lloyd George Cabinet, has
agreed to accept that post again, it
being made vacant by the elevation
OF Baldwin to the premiership. Thus
in his first official act the new pre-
mier holds out the olive branch to the
coalition Unionists who held office
under Lloyd George.
1t is declared on high authority that
in harmony with this bid for Tory
unity, Austen Chamberlain will be Of
'ered the post of lord of the privy
seal, and that it is only question
Of time when Lord Birkenhead will
be invited to again join the govern
ment.
The first official utterance OF the
new premier was
"Tell the people that I will heed
their prayers, rather than their con-
gratulations.'
Lord Curzon regarded as the most
likely man to succeed Bonar Law,
was not beaten until the last moment.
When as a result of the bitter nos
tility of the Labor party, coupled with
revolt in the Tory ranks against the
naming of peer as premier, the most
powerful leaders of the Conservatives
united on Baldwin.
Col F. Jackson, official leader of
the party before King George, who
dispatched his secretary Lord Stam-
forham, to see Lord Curzon. After a
40-minute conference Lord Curzon
agreed to retain the post of foreign
minister under the new premier. The
king at once sent for Baldwin, who,
riding to Buckingham Palace in an
ordinary taxicab, accompanied by
Mrs. Baldwin, kissed his sovereign's
hands and accepted the task of for
ming new government.
The king and Baldwin held con-
ference, which lasted for an hour, at
the end of which the new premier re-
turned to No. 10 Downing Street, and
took up the tremendous responsible
ties, which proved too much for Bonar
Law.
While the anti-Curzonites within
his own party undoubtedly exercised
great influence on King George in
the naming of Baldwin, the savage at
tacks of the Labor party on Lord
Curzon's warlike diplomacy, combined
with the fact that the Labor party
is now the official opposition and
therefore entitled to have the prime
minister in the House of commons
to answer questions Of policy, was
really the determining factor in the
selection of the chancellor of the ex-
cheuuer for the higher place.

MEMPHIS WINS IN

MISSOURI PACIFIC ORDERED TO
GRANT TRANSIT.

City Also Victor in Rate Complaint
Case Against Frisco System-Rep-
aration Denied Railroad on
Shipments Moved.

Memphis.-rhe Memphis Freight
Bureau has been successful in secur-
ing an order from the Interstate Com
merce Commission requiring the Mis-
souri, Pacific Railway to grant transit
at Memphis on cotton brought in to
Memphis from stations on the Mis-
souri, Pacific in Arkansas, for COM
preston, sale and reshipment, on the
same basis that is in effect at Ark
ansas transit points.
The order will become effective
Aug. 20. 1928
In its ruling, the commission re-
fused request for transportation on
shipments that already have been
moved.
The territory from which the tran
sit was granted, includes Knobel and
stations on the Missouri Pacific ex-
tending south from that point, to and
including the first station north OF
Forrest City. stations between, but
not including Little Rock and New
port; stations between Bald Knob
and Memphis; and stations on the
line extending from West Memphis
to, but not including Mariana.
Reshipment is not authorized by
the commission to points to which
the Missouri Pacific does not receive
on outbound haul from Memphis.
The commission also ruled that the
rates charged by the Frisco Railway
into Memphis on cotton for concen
tration, were unduly prejudicial to
Memphis and unduly preferential to
Arkansas concentrating points, in that
the rates on the movements into
Memphis were higher relatively than
into Arkansas concentrating points
such as Jonesboro and Blytheville
This discrimination was ordered re
moved
The fact that Memphis is entitled
to concentration privileges in connec
ton with the Rock Island and Cotton
Belt railways was denied by the com
mission.
The complaint was filed in April
1921, by the Memphis Freight Bureau
and was heard in October of the
same year at Memphis
The substance Of the complaint is
that Arkansas cotton originating on
the Missouri Pacific, the Rock Island
and the Cotton Belt railways, cOncen-
trated and compressed at Arkansas
congresses reached ultimate destina-
tions at lower transportation charges
than would apply to the same cotton
concentrated and compressed at Mem
phis, due principally to the existence
of transit arrangements at the Ark
ansas congresses and not at Mem
phis.

M'AD00 CAMPAIGN
STARTS IN CAPITAL
NOW FULL-FLEDGED CANDIDATE
FOR PRESIDENCY.
BELIEVES NOMINATION SURE
Strict Prohibition Enforcement ant
Cooperation With Allied Nations
In RehabiIitatinq the World
Would Be Platform.

Washington.-William Gibbs Nc
Adoo, former secretary Of the treas
ury and son-in-law of Woodrow viii
son, came to Washington to attend
the unveiling of the Alexander Ham
ilton statue and remained long
enough to become full-fledged can
didate for the presidency.
Conferences held here have con
vinced McAdoo that he has a good
chance to win the democratic nomi
nation Notwithstanding the fact thai
a two-th1rds vote in the convention
will be required.
The uncertainty as to whether OF
not he would cast his hat into the
1924 ring has been dissipated by the
fact that McAdoo himself, in confer
ence with various state leaders, has
solicited the support of their respec.
tive delegations in the convention and
has made open overtures for the
nomination.
Formal announcement Of his candi
dacy and the selection of a campaign
manager and headquarters for the
campaign are expected to be made
within a few days. Daniel G. Roper
who was internal revenue commits
sioner under McAdoo, probably viii
he picked to manage the campaign.
He was very active In behalf of Nc
Adoo at the San Francisco conven-
ton.
| An important meeting Of the Nc.
Adoo supporters was held at down.
| town hotel. At this conference re.
ports were received from EEAdoo
emissaries in a number of states who
had been sent out to sound the SEN
timent of democratic leaders. The
reports are said to have been ex.
tremely satisfactory and to have been
the deciding factor in the determine.
/ ton of .McAdoo to become candi.
| date.
Senator King, of Utah, supporting
McAdoo, said he believed McAdoo's
nomination is certain. He announced
himself in favor of platform call
ing for the formation of an "associa
| ton of nations" and plank demand
ing enforcement of the law, including
all prohibition measures. He express
ed the opinion that McAdoo, on such
a platform, would win the support OF
the farmers, labor and the middle
classes, but would have the opposi'
ton of Wall Street.
at is generally believed that Presi.
dent Harding represents the reaction
ary element in politics and the capi.
taEstic interests" Senator King said
whereas, McAdoo is more inclined
to be progressive. He stands well
with the farmers. because he gave
them the federal reserve law and the
farm loan bank system. His foreign
policy would be to cultivate relations
abroad through the medium of an as
sociation of nations, which would ere
ate foreign markets for American
products"
