OBSERVERS INSIST W
WADOO WILL NOT
5 ."MAKE THE GRADE"
Capital, Howeuer, Aston
ished BY Vitality of Ex-
81 treasurers Boom. IN

Washington, d. c., April 1.-THE
vitality displayed by the McAdoo boom
has astonished Washington and while
seasoned observers here still insist he
will be unable ito make the grade"
so far as winning the nomination for
himself is concerned, they are now
fairly well convinced that, if he can
hold his forces together, he can exer-
else a veto against any other candi-
date.
Results of recent primaries indi-
cate, that the Californian will enter
the Democratic convention with more
delegates pledged to him than any
other one candidate. The belief is
current here, however, that his power
to make gains has been seriously i'm
paired and that after the first three
or four ballots he stands to lose rather
than win delegates.
There is considerable speculation as
to which other candidate the McAdoo
leaders would be inclined to favor,
should they become convinced their
own man cannot win. 1t is generally
held that Governor Smith could not
win this support, first because he is
considered "wet," whereas most of
the McAdoo delegates will be "dry."
and then many Of the MeAdoo men are
expected to be tinged with the Ku
Klux Khan, who would oppose Smith
on religious grounds, Underwood
might pick up some McAdoo delegates
but there is little in common between
the IDEAS for which McAdoo and I'm
derw0od stand.
However. there is nothing to pre-
vent McAdoo forces from going to Cox
or Ralston, or even John W. Davis.
should either of them develop winning
possibilities. Cox is not expected to
loom very large in the early voting
and is not pressing his claims any
where outside of Ohio. Ralston will
have Indiana and the backing of
Boss" Taggert, who might in the end,
win over Bosses" Murphy and Bren-
nan as well. The age of the Indiana
man is against him. however. in the
opinion of Democrats in Washington
Davis has gained considerably in the
last few weeks, judging by expressions
of sentiment about the capitol. He
doesn't make much of hit with the
progressive wing. but the conservatives
are discussing him, seriously, feeling
that Underwood has lost ground. They
point to the fact that Davis is not as
vulnerable as Underwood on the pro-
hibition, woman suffrage and child
labor issues. The principal objections
to him is that since re-entering the
practice of law he has been retained by
the Morgan interests. His friends,
however, do not view this seriously,
pointing out that the present House
of Morgan is not in bad repute. and
that this connection would be helpful
in winning the confidence of Business
men, whose support in some measure
is necessary II the Democrats are to
win.

that he a ways manages to remain

on the Republican side of the Senate
and has eylnced strong desire to
ride in the Coolidge band wagon.
Informal inquiry has develoDed that
the senator from Idaho would appre-

that he doesn't expect to be chosen.

perhaps having someone else in mind.
Senator Lodge is the one on whom
the Old Guard element is said to have
centered and he is reported to be
willing victim. The venerable sena-
tor from Massachusetts was tenn
porary chairman four years ago and
look what happened President Hard
ing was elected by 100000 majority.
Perhaps the fact that Senator Lodge
was temporary chairman had little to
do with that majority but friends OF
the Back Bay senator have convinced
him that history will repeat itself.

A cryptanalyst, as disclosed by the
only useful bit of information so far
uncovered by the Teapot Dome inquiry,
is man who reads things thar are
unfathomable to mankind in general.
He has the job Of supplying common
sense where somebody else didn't have
time to place it or where it is inten-
ticnally avoided.
On Drug Store Payrolls.
Naturally, every drug store is COM
PEELED to keep one cryptanalyst on its
payroll. Doctors are not paid in ac-
,cordance with the legibility of their
Handwriting. If they were, they would
have small use for bank accounts. So,
as everybody knows, prescriptions
written by doctors do not have the
appearance of being meant for any
body to read. Consequently, a sick
man has to rely on the infallible crypt
analyst.
Code messages often appear simple
compared to some of the prescriptions
that are sent to San Antonio drug
stores by some local doctors. The
casual observer or one uninitiated in
the terms and symbols of the pharma-
eist can see little if any meaning in
them.
tits common knowledge that doc
tors writing is as bad as the medicine
he prescribes, but. long acquaintance
with hiero!!yphic writing enables the
prescription filler to analyze correctly
what the doctor intended to write.
