COX IS SILENT ON
 HIS ANNOUNCEMENT
Simply Shows Letter Expressing
 Willingness to Use Name

Miami, Fla, Feb. 21.--Former gov ernor James M. Cox, of Ohio, who is in Miami, had no statement to make with respect to q dispatch from Cleveland yesterday regarding the use of his name as q candidate for the democratic noimnaton for presi- dent. He did. however, give out copies of the following correspond ence. The first letter is from James F.. Campbell. former governor of Ohio who was chairman of the Ohio delegation at San Francisco conven- tion in 1920 and will be a delegate at large at the New York convention. His letter to Governor Cox reads:
 Columbus, O., Feb. ', 1924.
 My Dear Friend:--I feel it my duty to disturb your vacation long enough to say that many influential democrats from various parts of the state have importuned me to write you. Most of them, like myself, are members Of the Old Guard who have no personal political ambition but who are exceedingly anxious to have the democratic party succeed in the
  their opinion. in which l fully concur. that you would be the most available and the most deserving presidential nominee whom the democratic party could select; and at their suggestion and in conformity with my own judgment and feelings. I write to in- sist that you shall comply with the Ohio law in regard to candidates for that office. It is the only way by which your friends can legally secure the delegation which, l assure you, will be unitedly and enthusiastically in favor of your nomination at the convention to be held in New York City on June 2i.
 T do not think it should be neces- sary that an old friend like myself should enlarge upon this subject. You know what steps are necessary. under the Ohio statutes, to make you eligi- ble for support by the democracy of the state. I therefore urge you to seriously consider this proposition; and to conform to my request if you can see your way to do so with pro- priety and with due regard to the in- terest of your family and your busi- ness affairs Awaiting your reply hopefully I am,
 Sincerely yours,
 James r.. Campbell" Governor CoX's reply follows:
 Miami. Fla. Feb. IS, 1924. My Dear Governor Campbell. T have your letter in which you request consent Of the use of my name in the democratic primaries in Ohio. "fou are well aware that I have no inclination 10 enter into any contest l for delegates anywhere. IT, however fl is the belief of the democracy of the state that the principles for which 1 I stand can be promoted by your sug- gestion then I most happily acquiesce fyery truly yours.

New York. Feb. 2t.-With tS,o0o men engaged in removing snow and ice from the city pavements, officials of the street cleaning department said today that the effects of yesterdays storm had not been so serious as they anticipated. despite the freezing tenn perature that turned several inches of siush into ice last night.

Guard Against "Flu"
 With Musterole

Influenza, Grippe and Pneumonia usually start with a cold. The moment you get those warning aches, get busy with good old Musterole.
 Musterole is counter-irritant that relieves congestion (which is what a cold dreallyis) and stimulates circulation. It has all the good qualities of the old-fashioned mustard plaster without the blister.
 Just rub 1t on with your finger-tips. First you will feel a warm jingle as the healing ointment penetrates the pores, then soothing, cooling sensation and quick relief.
 Have Musterole handy for emergency use. It may prevent serious illness. To Mothers: Musterole is now made in milder form for babies and small children. Ask for Children's Musterole.
