Candidate Defeated in 1920
Will Have Voice in Selec.
ton of Next Demo.
cratic Nominee.
Ohio Leaders Divided
By MARK SULLIVAN.
Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee.

Washington, May 3-The position
OF Ex-Governor james NJ. Cox with re-
lation to the democratic situation
next year, has emerged to a point
where it is possible to speak Of it
with some definiteness. The first ele-
ment in that situation is that Cox IS
not going to be what, for example,
Parker was after his disastrous de-
feat by Roosevelt in 1904. Cox is
certainly going to be an active figure
next year, and under certain situa-
tions may be one OF the leading fig
ures.
1t would be far too much to say
that he is now one of the more seri-
Gus possibilities for the actual NOM
nation. But it would be too much
also to say that even in this respect
he is absolutely and definitely
eclipsed. Omitting the actual nom
nation. in the field of determining
who else the nominee shall be and in
determining the party's policies, Cox
is clearly disposed to be much to the
front and probably will succeed in
being to the front.
Handicapped by 1920 Defeat
Coxs chief handicap is. of course,
the obvious one of his severe defeat
in 1920. Next to that his principal
handicap is his changed relation to
his own state Of Ohio. In 1920 Cox
was in the governors chair and was
without competition as Ohio's favor
ite son in the democratic conNen-
ton. But due TO events which have
occurred since 1920. Cox's hold on the
Ohio democratic organization has be-
come much less firm. Some of the
Ohio leaders, who were Cox's princi-
pal friends in 1920 and who were
most responsible for getting the NOM
ination for him, do not now occupy
the same relation to him.
Some of them are out of politics
voluntarily. some Of them are out in
voluntarily and some have transferred
their loyalty to others.
Nevertheless, the probability is
that Cox will attempt to secure the
Ohio delegation Of 4S members TO
the next democratic convention. He
may not secure them in the sense
Of 4 devoted and persistent following,
as he had them in 1920. at the same
time, he may be able to secure the
delegation. certainly in compliment
tary sense and possible In the sense
that he may be able. in some degree
at least. to direct this big state dele
sation with relation 10 the choice OF
the nominee and to the making OF
TIE party platform.
Advocates League OF Nations.
In one respect Cox is unique among
the democratic leaders. Next to Will
son. he is the most courageous and
fhe most outstanding advocate Of the
league Of nations. II he were free
to speak his heart, he would probably
not say that he is necessarily for the
league in the exact form that Wilson
wrote IL. But he is in favor OF
Americas cooperation with the other
nations for the preserving OF peace
in the spirit of the league OF nations
TO a greater degree than any other
democratic leader Of his rank. The
place that Cox will have In the next
democratic national convention VIII
depend "A good deal on what kind OF
platform the convention wants to
adopt with reference TO foreign rela
tons.
