WANT'ED-ENTRANT
WITH RADIO VOICE
Both Parties Expect to Appeal to Millions of Fans
Davis Qualified in This Respect,

he has grown so strong in the last
two days that both the McAdoo and
Smith camps are out TO eliminate
him. Davis says he is not running
and is9going to work at his law Of
flee, downtown, every morning, just
as though there was no convention
on, and just as though he were not
being mentioned. AS a matter of
fact, his friends are not mentioning
him-they're yelling him. They have
overplayed their hands.
Davis was to be trotted as a dark
horse, but he has faded under the
spotlight of publicity during the last
two days into the third place candi-
date. Davis, a lawyer, springs of a
family that has run public affairs
in West Virginia for generations. He
served with Congress when very
young, and during the Wilson Ad-
ministration was solicitor general,
ambassador to London, and handled
various jobs. Fearing him as a rival
Of Al Smith, New York papers have
been broadcasting his connection
with Morgan & Co., he Standard
Oil, and other big financial con.
Germs.
Davis makes no apology for his
clients. He refused to desert them
for political reasons. His politics
are a curious mixture of conserv-
alive and liberal ideas. Davis is
scholar, an orator and a man of
pleasing personality. But they have
placed the Wall Street trade mark
upon him. And that is why many
Democrats say he won't do.
Speaking of folks hereabouts, let's
not overlook old Jim (DemocraN Lit
tie, white-haired. 70-year-old negro,
mascot of the Georgia delegation,
whooping it up for McAdoo. When
McAdoo was born sixty years ago
and began whooping it up on his
own. it was Old Jim who ran nine
miles for the doctor. Old Jim says
when he first heard McAdoo's baby
cry, he told himself that youngster
had a chance to be President of the
United States some day.

Indiana liquor law enforcement
has received a severe jolt that v.r'
tually is a knock out.
Indiana liquor laws are as strong
as ever.
These two widely divergent opin-
ions were expressed by a number
of lawyers on one hand and by
State officials on the other today
in discussing the effect of a decision
Of the Indiana Supreme Court
Tuesday in which it was stated that
1T is not an offense against the
laws of Indiana to keep intoxicat-
ing liquor with intent to sell the
same or to keep in possession in1ox-
icating liqu ors."
Lesh Sees no Change
According to Z. S. Lesh, attorney
general of Indiana, there is nothing
new in the decision.

NEW YORK, June 25.-One hears
a good deal of talk about 1.-The need
Of a Democratic candidate with
radio voice. 1t isn't quite certain
vet what constitutes a good radio
voice. It is certain, however, that
some folks have them and some
don't. They don't grow on the same
vine rs the spcllbinder' voice For
instance, President Coolidge, who
isn't much as a face to face orator,
has a good radio voice. He speaks
slowly without gestures, uses simple
words, and is easily understood by
the radio audience. On the other
hand. Senator Pat Harrison. who
made the keynote speech yesterday,
and who is voted an oratorical
wonder by folks who hear him in an
auditorium, is reckoned a poor radio
speaker. 1t may be because his
voice has too many infections, or
because he relies too much upon his
facial stunts or upon gymnastics, to
get his idea across.
Acrobatics and making faces are
lOSl over IdI4Os AL TINS CIlAAEA II
over a candidate with a radio voice
comes about because both parties
intend to bid for the votes of the ten
million, more or less, radio fans in
the United States. Radio is an en-
tIrely new factor for the politicians
in the 1924 campaign. 1t never cut
a figure as a publicity medium be-
fore. 1t may be the deciding factor
this year. The Republican chief
tans have already decided to make
Coolidge's campaign a radio propo-
sition largely Not few Democrats
think their party should follow suit,
and to that end they are looking for
a candidate who is a plain, clear
thinker, who knows where he is
going when he starts to speak, and
who talks without vocal gyrations,
straight through to the point.
One such man might be John W.
Davis of West Virginia, except that

AT ODDS
ON DRY LAW NOW
Some Say Decision Virtually Knocks Out Statute
Others Say No.

Mere possession of liquor was held
not illegal by the Supreme Court
a long time ago, Lesh said today,
after reading the decision.
in the case in question, sale was
not charged, only possession. The
decision does not affect the theory
of many prosecutions that while pos
session is not illegal in itself it car
ries with it presumption of sale
New Decision Predicted
A number of Indianapolis lawyers
on the other hand insist the decision
kills the idea of presumption.
All OF which would indicate that
another Supreme Court decision may
be necessary to clear up the ques-
ton.
William H Remy was in confer
ence with Lesh today. Lesh ad.
mitted the liquor law situation was

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,
New York, June 25.-"With Cleve-
land and Wilson gone, there is rome
other to equal this American in the
fight to restore to the people the
confidence in their Government" de
clared Fordney Johnston, of Birm-
ingham, Ala, in nominating Senator
Underwood this afternoon.
The candidate we propose is as
spotless in character as was Wash
ington and with the same com.
polling ana self evident nobility,'s
Johnston continued. The search
light of a political campaign would
make you proud of him as the days
pass"
Thirty Years Service
Recalling Senator Underwoois
thirty years in Congress as leader of
both House and Senate, Johnston de-
clared that his public service has
been unequaled by any man now
living.
I'VE believe him to be the chief
living defender of the sanctity of
the Constitution and of government
by law" Johnston continued. Your
platform may we'll rest on those
foundations.
No candidate before the conven-
ton, Johnston said, will have
clearer conception of the economic
basis and the effect of this nations
international relations. The speak
er praised the Underwood tariff
law and blamed the present sched-
ules 'for the agricultural stress
that exists today"
I'VE Alabamians." Johnston said,
challenge in friendly spirit our
Democratic colleagues to suggest
any man who has reflected more
clearly in his record the mountain
peaks and landmarks of our party
with absolute courage and abso-
Lutte candor. On all doctrines he has
stood by his party's principles"
Khan Chief Issue
Turning TO Senator Underwood's
anti-Klan fight. which he has made
the chief issue Of his campaign for
the presidency, Johnston recalled the
Democratic platform Of 1886. which
embraced a plank against the
''Know-nothIug party" which I'm
derwood has Hkened to the Ku-Klux
Khan of today.
Our candidate has not one word
TO say against the right of any man
to join an order. secret or otherwise,
organized for a lawful purpose. but
he does condemn the participation in
politics by any secret organization.
He believes that such action intimi-
dates public officials and encourages
political or oath-bound pledges con-
trary to public policy.

general support of active participa-
ton by our Government in any eff
fort that may be made through the
League or any other channel to be
ing about a restoration of normal
industrial activity in Europe.
The honor of our country, the
prosperity of our people demand that
we return TO the ideals of Woodrow
Wilson, that we resume the place
he won for us-the moral leadership
of the world"

ord from its beginning, Walsh said
that back 10 normally meant back

Aldrich legislated. when the Senate

ment"
Furthermore the slogan, every
