! WASHINGTON, July 9.-Former
Senator EIoke Smith left Washing
ton today for New York and from the
metropolis win go to Atlanta FOR a
visit of several weeks, or possibly
the remainder of the summer. Mr..
Smith went to New York on legal
business, but his stay in Georgia
will be mainly vacation. Before
leaving Washington, he said his trip
had no political significance.
He said that he himself had no
ambition to re-enter Georgia politics
or public life, despite rumors to that
effect in Georgia, and that his hands
are full with his legal practice. Mr..
Smith has not yet determined when
he will move his office permanently
to Georgia and give up his Washing

Senator Smith was asked what he
thought of the various Democratic
presidential candidates. Without
going through the whole list, he said:
"Either Underwood, McAdoo of
Governor Cox is available timber and
would make a good candidate and
good president. Each is an able man.,
and / believe either could win"
