The German government is alarmed

History records, however, that
George Washington was one chief ex-
ecutive who did get away with it. 1t
is told of the first President that even
ut the formal receptions rendered to
Congress and the small diplomatic
corps Of the. time he never shook hands
with the visitors. The President who
considered himself more in the"ruler"

democracy an experiment. stood stiffly
with his hands behind his back and

colonial days as the guests filed by.

cratic politics continues to grow in
interest. Most of the editors and pub
fishers assembled at New York this
week, for instance. were asking each
other TO guess the next Democratic
presidential nominee. Naturally. with
the Republican race closed to Presi-
dent Coolidsp. there is an inevitable
interest in the Democratic contest.
One found many persons from differ
ent parts of the country ready to adj
nit that Mr.. McAdoo could not be
nominated because of the one-third
block against him..
Expect Long Convention.
Undoubtedly the editors with whom
this correspondent talked felt that
the first fight would be on McAdoo,
that he would either develop greater
strength on the first few ballots or be
eliminated quickly. There seems to
be no idea that anyone else in the race
will bear the brunt Of the initial bal
loting.
Next to McAdoo the talk is of Sem
ator Ralston OF Indiana. While many
insist that he cannot be nominated
because of his advanced age. there arc
other who think Governor AL Smiths
wet views will disqunlify him. Yet
the champions of both Ralston and
Smith are cock-sure there will be a
stampede in the direction of their
favorite.
John w. Davis is mentioned more
frequently than anyone else with the
possible exception of Senator Carter
Glass of Virginia, as a possible COM
promise candidate. though many of
the Democratic editors interviewed in
New York feel sure Senator Under

party went South of the Mason and
Dixon line for a candidate. Mr.. I'm
derwood is held in high esteem and If
he hailed from northern state. his
nomination would be foregone con-
clusion.
Sentiment in favor of any one man
has not crystallized so far as the opin-
ions of editors from many parts of
the country would seem to indicate.
But all seem to expect long drawn
out convention of the Democrats with
plenty of balloting. and excitement
that characterized the sessions in 1912
at Baltimore, and in 1920, at San
Francisco.

NEW BRITAIN AND WATERBuRY

Waterbury citizens from time to time complain that their widely known city suffers in possibilities for ad- vancement and is subject to incon- venicnce because 1t is not on the main line" of the New Haven rail- road. When the recent change in train schedules was effected by rail- road officials 1t was sadly pointed out that Waterbury got the same consld- eraion as any other town on brancll line and not much more.
 Waterbury is in the same situation as New Britain, and both are on the same minor line of the New Haven system, known as "Willimantc to Danbury" in the time table. Both cities suffer from the same ailment.
 From a practical standpoint, how over, it makes no difference. Being on the main line of a railroad does not of itself guarantee prosperity, which depends upon cities themselves rather than upon the railroad that happens 10 be serving them.
 Individual enterprise is more i'm portant than railroad lines. New Britain and Waterbury may have done as well if situated on the main line of the New Haven, but the fact that they lacked this advantage has not held in check their destiny as virile and energetic manufacturing centers
 There are poor towns sprawled along the main lines of all railroads. They pride themselves on being on the main line" but most of the trains don't stop.
 New Britain and Waterbury have forged ahead steadily despite the al- leged handicap of not being located where the going to and coming from is made easy. Both cities show healthy tendency to increase the im- portance of the line serving them.
 New Britain of course, has slight advantage over Waterbury by being closely linked Up with the Springfield New Haven line of the New Haven railroad. Travel via Berlin gives this city better supplemental service than Waterbury: but essentially the two cities are alike--they have grown to importance and prosperity despite their location,
 Emerson is credited with having said that if a person builds better than anyone else the world will beat a pathway to his door. New Britain and Waterbury have achieved this; both cities have attained dis tlnction in certain lines of manufac- ture and the main line can go hang.
