200 Organizations Have AL

Democratic Campaign Fund
BY HARRY B. HUNT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Dom-
ocratic believers in signs, portents

Davis election as president of the
United States was preordained-a5
least as far back as the date OF
his departure from England after
surrenGering his post Of ambassa-
dor.
For, when Davis left England,
Lord Of the British admiralty sent
out to sea with the vessel which
brought him home an escort of 81
destroyers.
And as a salute of 21 GUNS is the
presidential" salute in the Ameri-
can navy, an escort of u destroy
ers is rulers escort" under
British custom.
Thus it was that the British
! scooped" us by a matter Of years
on one of our (perhaps) futurs
presidents.
Whether Davis is elected or not,
the Democrats are going to make
history this year.
For the party has, even now, a
list of campaign contributors
greater than any ever filed at the
capital. Pasted end to end, the
sheets cotaining this is t would
reach the full length Of Pennsyl-
vania avenue, from the treasury
to Peace Monument; more than a
mile. The financial workers Of the
party, however, are confident this
will be more than doubled by the
contributors who will now chip in
their dimes and dollars as mem
bers Of Davis Bryan Victory Clubs.
These Victory Clubs" more
than 200 of which already have
been organized, contributed the
money which enabled Cordell Hull
to turn over the reins Of the parry
to Glenn Shaver with all bills paid
and money in the bank.

Instead of teaching 8th to It'll

it would fill a want from which oh,
