WESTERNER's AIDES HOPEFUL

BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

NEW YORK, June 2o.-Like rail-
road time tableAsubject to change
without notice-is the list of claims
of the various candidates for the
Democratic nomination for the presi-
dency.' She victory will be won by
sheer strategy, skillful management
and a proper estimate of convention
psychology at the opportune moment.
But to understand what is about to
happen, to get the background of
events, so to speak, these claims of
candidates have to be checked and
counter-checked.
The writer has obtained from one
of the McAdoo managers a table
which represents the maximum
strength thus far of the former Sec
retary of the Treasury. Submitting
this estimate to one of the most pow
erful leaders in the Democratic party
certain comments were made. Having
from two opposite sources, the table
is given. not with the idea that it will
be followed in the balloting. but as
an indication of just where each side
expects to recruit its votes in the
first test, which inevitably will be be-
tween McAdoo and Smith. The thir-
ty-siX votes of the territories are
omitted because of the uncertainty on
all sides as to their eventual alloca-
ton. The first is the bedrock McAdoo
table:

Additional Votes Expected.

The second column contains many
states who will have favorite sons,
but who are expected to go to Nc
Adoo on the third or fourth ballot,
so adding 312,>and 3o2 gives a maxi
mum friendly strength of 614 for
McAdoo. Out of the third column the
McAdoo managers figure they can get
the 11S other votes needed to make
the required 73a which is the two
thirds necessary TO nominate. They
look for an additional "a votes from
. New York if a break up comes, 10
from New Jersey, 6 from Rhode Is
land, 10 from Maryland, 8 from Vir-
ginia, from Florida, II from Ala
bama, from West Virginia, from
Ohio, 20 from Indiana, 10 more from
Illinois, from Wisconsin, from
Washington, which totals 124, and, of
course, the McAdoo people expect
some of the So votes which come
from Alaska, Porto Rico, the Philip
pines, Hawaii, Canal Zone and the
District of Columbia.
The foregoing when checked over
by bitter foe of McAdoo man who
controls many votes and who saws he
never will vote for McAdoo, brought
out the following points of disagree
ment on the second and third COL
Jn1nS.
Evening star., 1924-06-20
McAdoo Claims Disputed.

subtracting hhese differences, the
totals would appear to be 304 con-
crded to McAdoo as instructed or in
dorsed and 20S friendly, or a maxi
mum of 512 votes, which leaves $50
anti McAdoo outside Of the terri
torres. This same individual gives
as his own prediction that McAdoo
will have 407 on the first ballot and
492 on the se0Ond ballot, and that
he never will have enough to pass
the majority mark. which is 54S
The McAdoo managers, on the other
hand, are confident that they will
run up In $50 in u few ballots and
then they will make a supreme eff
fort to nave the convention make
a nomination either by majority rule
or the appeal to- enough delegations
to break away to furnish the neces-
sary two-thirds. But from both sides
IL can be written down even at this
date neither McAdoo nor any one
else has a two-thirds vote assured
and the McAdoo claim of majority
is disputed.
