NJ ADOO IS ENTERED
INN CAROLINA RACE;
UNDERWOOD To RUN
Former Secretary Of Treas
uy Opens Texas Campaign
With Denunciation of Re-
publican Party at Amarillo

RALEIGH, N. c.. April 1O.-Wil-
liam 6. McAdoo. candidate for the
Democratic nomination for president,
today entered the presidential prl-
mary to be held in North Carolina
on June Z by filing notice of his
candidacy with the state board Of
elections.
Formal entrance of Mr.. McAdoo
In the North Carolina primary
makes it certain that he will
be opposed in this state by Senator
Oscar w. Underwood, according to
statements from the latter's cam
paign manager in Raleigh.
Announcement that the former
teasury secretary's filing already was
inathe mails, was preceded by state
mentment here by Walter Murphy,
in charge of Senator Underwood :
candidacy in North Carolina, that
the senator Immediately would file
for the nomination should his rival
do so.
Underwood Forced to Run
Murphy. however, had expressed
the hope that McAdoo would not en-
ter the campaign, declaring that I'm
derwood would not enter unless he
was forced" into it and that the
Alabama solon had voiced a wish
that North Cardinals delegation
might go to the national convention
in New York with instructions to
vote for the nomination of JOSephus
Daniels, former secretary of the
navy.
Under the North Carolina laws,
the state convention can instruct it's
delegation or send it uninStructed,
provided there are no entrants in
the primary; but in the latter event
the delegation is bound to the candi-
date receiving the popular vote.
In entering Mr.. McAdoo's name
In the North Carolina primaries"
said statement issued by Judge
Walter E. Brock, his campaign man
ager, lit was felt by those support
ing him that the voters in the party
should have the same privilege in
selecting the nominee for president
that they have in selecting the nomi-
nee for any other office"
All Classes for Him
IAN classes are for him" stated
Judge Brock. 1.-The farmers know
that during Mr.. McAdoo's term as
secretary of the treasury in Presi-
dent Wilson'S cabinet the time came
when help was necessary or the
farmers were destroyed, for the rea-
son that the local banks did not have
sufficient funds to finance the crops.
That help came, and from whom?
From this same man, McAdoo. Then
that great body of our citizenship
known as the laboring man knows
80 Ill MO i
for MANY years McAdoo has been
one Of their best friends. He demands
for them justice and equity. They
will be at the polls On June and
support him.
"And, finally, there cannot be
found anywhere in the world a more
liberal and patriotic set of business
men than is found in North Carolina,
and they appreciate the fact that
McAdoo is fair and just. They do not
want anything but justice. And they
will be at the polls on June I ana
support the one man who can leau
the party to victory in November.
