MADISON S Q U A r E
GARDEN, NEW YORK, June
28.-The New York World,
which has been conducting a
bitter campaign against Nc
Adoo in the hope of helping
along Al Smiths candidacy for
Democratic presidential nom-
ination, this morning switched
much of its heavy artillery on
Ralston.
Having at least in its own
belief, succeeded in killing off
McAdoo by advertising his oil
connections, and by over-e en-
phasizing his so-called Klan
leanings, the World is appar-
emily attempting similar tactics
against Ralston.
Eight Klan-controlled States, so
the World is reliably informed. will
begin 20 swing to United States Sen
ator Samuel NJ. Ralston of Indiana.
after five or six ballots have been
taken in the Democratic national
convention. and it appears that Will
liam Gibbs AIcAdoo cannot be nom
mated, reads the Worlds opening
paragraph.
Rises in Betting
It is significant that this Klan
propaganda comes just at the time
that Ralston has taken second place
to Smith in the Wall Street betting
odds, where Smith is now 21a to l,
Ralston 31a to l and McAdoo 5 to l.
Much to Tom Taggart's anger and
dismay there seems to be some
truth to the world story. Texas and
Georgia, the real Klan delegations,
are known to be almost as strong
for Ralston as they are for Nc
Adoo, their avowed candidate just or
unjust as the Klans estimate of
Ralstons friendly feeling toward it
may be Klan support of any can
didate at this moment is not a
matter Of strength and if mention of
the Klan can be kept out of the
platform as now appears likely,
there is little doubt that the can
didate chosen will be an anti-Klans-
man i sort Of compromise selection

had to back down on the platform

new POLICE SCANDAL MAY
Be CAUSED BY HOLDUP PROBE

Rumors floating about the city are
to the effect that new police
scandal may develop as a result of
the investigation being made into
an alleged holdup in the saloon at
SIS Smith street late last Friday
night.
Detectives Gutowski and Murray
are working on the case and an ar
rest or arrests are looked for at an
early date. Three arrests may be
made for participation in the at
tempted holdup and another arrest
may be made on a liquor transporta-
ton charge. 1t is rumored that a
police officer may be teamed up
with the disappearance of five cases
of liquor.
The proprietor of the Smith
street establishment reports that one
man visited tn mems room of his
saloon at about 10 o'clock on Fri
day night, and three quarters of an
hour later this man and second
party entered and pulled guns. Two
shots were fired an dthe report is
that holdup men obtained nothing.
A. third man had an automobile in
readiness.
1t is alleged that car was report
ed stolen on that night and this is
the automobile believed to have
been deserted by the hold-up party.
Later the same night the car was
recovered on Smith street near the
city line.
One report heard about the city
is that the men had attempted to
sell Ave cases of liduor and after
making a delivery the proposed
purchaser refused to make pay
ment. A policeman may be GEES
tioned in regard to the final DISPOSE
ton of the liquor.
