NADOO HEADQUARTERS
OPENED IN NEW YORK


/ NEW YORK. June 11.-Campaign
headquarters for William G. Nc.
Adoo Monday were formally trans
ferred from Chicago to New York.
! David Ladd Rockwell national di-
rector of the campaign, took over
the McAdod organization at the
Vanderbilt hotel, whence he will
marshal his forces in preparation
for the arrival of Mr. McAdoo on
/ June II to assume personal com
mand
Mr. Rockwells first statement
from the new camp was declara-
| ton that Governor Smiths letter of
yesterday advocating revision of the
! Nolstead act definitely labelled the
governor wet" and assured the
nomination of McAdoo, an out and
| ic convention.
Governor Smith has at last made
| liquor a cIear-cut issue" said Mr.
Rockwell I'VE are glad he has com.
mitted himself 1T remains for the
convention TO decide whether it will
nominate a wet candidate or a NOR
al candidate.
Mr.. McAdoo always has been a
, dry, in compliance with the long
standing moral convictions of the
Democratic party. Seventy per
cent of the Democratic states would
go dry if a referendum were taken
today. Governor Smiths open es-
pousal of the wet cause means votes
for Mr. McAdoo''
Mr.. Rockwell asserted that Gov
ernor Smith and Mr. McAdoo had
taken identical positions toward the
<u Klux Khan. since each. without
having gone on record as for or
/ against the Khan. had 'reaffirmed
! the perpetual Democratic platform
plank guaranteeing to all the right
TO organize and fraternize, and TO
freedom of speech as we'll as of as
sembly."
Mr. Rockwell predicted that the
convention would adopt a similar
attitude toward the khan for, he said,
this organiza ION should not be
an issue in the national campaign.
any more than should any secret So
ciety or fraternity which people
might choose To criticize"
Although the tariff question prob
ably would not figure in the Demo-
crtaic convention. said Mr.. Rock
well, it would be a bigger issue than
ever between the two major parties
| this year. after candidates are cho-
sen and partisan campaigning gets
in full swing. He expressed a con-
viction that all the ills of the mid-
western farmer were directly due to
the prevailing tariff system
Mr.. Rockwell will make a flying
visit to Cleveland on Wednesday.

lican convention.

age" the paper says. "It is a mani
festation of a. racial struggle, which,
unless carefully handled, may re-
plunge the world into bloodshed."
The Daily Mail expresses salts
faction that the relations of the two
countries have not yet been strained
beyond the point where the trouble
can be mended.
The Daily Express thinks it would
be the srossest folly to minimize the
possibility of a sudden and malig-
nant expansion of such demonstra-
tons as that in Toxic. 1t urges the
United States to attempt to bridge
the differences by frank discussion
with Japan, and advises Japan to
condemn the demonstration and take
every step to prevent its recurrence.
The diplomatic correspondent of
the Daily Telegraph says the Incl
dent in Toxic has added to the gen
eral and increasing anxiety in diplo-
matte circles, and expresses lear
over the outcome.
KATO ACCEPTS MANDATE
TO FORM NEW MINISTRY
TOXIC, June 9-(By the Associat-
ed Press. (-Viscount Taxa Akira
kato tonight accepted the command
of Prince Regent Hirohito to form
a new cabinet, asking, however,
that he might be given d few days.
His ministry will succeed that of
former Premier Kiego kiyouara,
and will be q coalition affair. accord
ing to the vernacular newspapers.
The tentative lineup OF depart
mental ministers, as forecast by the
press, includes two members of the
Sieyukai party which is considered
an absolute master of the diet, one
member of the kakushin reform)
club, and other ministers drawn
from the Kenseikai party, of which
Premier kato is the leader except in
the foreign office and the war and
navy departments.
1t is. considered probableE that
Minister of War Ugaki will be the
only follower from the Kiyoura
cabinet.
Viscount Korekiyo Takahashi and
Ri Inukai have been offered port
folios, it is understood.
Baron K. ShideEara, former am
bassador to the United States, and
Viscount Kikujiro Ishii, former min
lister to Paris and special envoy to
the United States in 1917 when the
famous IshiiLansing agreement was
signed, are considered the likeliest
candidates for the foreign office
portfolio Tt is believed in some
quarters, however, that Baron kei-
shire Matsui, who held the post I'M
der Premier Kiyoura. may retain
his position.
1t is understood that if Shidehara
does not take the foreign office, he
will return to Washington as the
Japanese ambassador. Close fam
lily connections between the new pre-
mier and Baron Shidehara, who
married sisters, may cause the lat
ter to decide not to enter the cabi-
net for fear he might enabarrass the
premier.
The new cabinet leader is a dis
tinguished member of the Japanese
nobility. He has had a. long and
successful career in governmental
fairs

out, are exercising all of their skill
and ingenuity to keep alive favorite
son fires as long as possible, hop
ing in this way to hold McAdoo' s
real strength to the minimum. They
know full we'll that McAdoo is the
second and real choice of most state
Arkansas, Virginia, Kansas, Wyo-
ming and Nebraska are among the
states that have favorite sons in
the race, but which are at heart for
McAdoo. That is one of the reasons
why one hears so much talk in
New York about the popularity of
Senators Robinson and Glass and
kendrick and Governors Davis, of
Kansas, and Bryan, of Nebra Jka.
The anti-McAdoo forces are enga sed
in encouraging the candidates. of
these men, not in the expectation
or hope that any of them can or will
be nominated, but in the desire of
keeping their votes out of the Nc
Adoo column.
Notwithstanding the gossip bout
faVorite sons and the strong nti-
McAdoo propaganda one encounters
in the hotel Hobbies, the biggest NOR
sci of gossip in New York today is
the row in the Smith camp Lead
ers in the governors headquarters
are at dageers' points over the pro-
hibtion question, and it is said that
Franklin Roosevelt is on the verge of
retiring as chairman of the Smith
campaign committee.
After McAdoo's Florida victory
Roosevelt gave out statement de-
claring that Governor Smith would
not insist on amendment to the Vol
stead prohibition act. He said. in
effect, that Governor Smiths dele
.@ates would make no fight for any
platform plank favoring a modera-
tion of the Nolstead law, but would
accept the inevitable and seek to
nominate the governor on dry"
platform
OF course Tammany Hall let out a
squaWk, and since then there has
been much backing and filling about
the prohibition issue. Tammany
leaders protested that the governor
lis committed to the amendment of
the Volstead act, and that he cannot
expect to make any Roadway as a
presidential candidate unless he
stands pat in his opposition to the
Nolstead act
And on top of all these protests,
rumblines have come from Wiscon~
sin, Minnesota, Illinois and Michigan
against any trimming by the gov
ernor on prohibition. AS a result

The individuals or organizations
that proposed the naming OF the ten
greatest Negroes and included in tha'
number, those, who are living along
with those, who are dead were certain
" stirring up trouble for themselves
md all of those connected with the
proposition. Our personal opinion Is
that it would Iequire list OF not less
than one thousand names to include
the prospective candidates for this
honor.
The Negro may be said to be poverty
stricken in some particulars, but ID
the matter of leadership, he is one OF
the wealthiest races of people on the
face of the globe. Any person.
who disputes this is not well
acquainted with either the Ne
gro or his actual history. When these

leader of leaders, then we shall know

1t is indeed unfortunate that fight
should now be waged against President
]. Stanley Durkee, President OF How
ard University, when united efforts are
needed to keep this great institution
going forward upon the high plane il
has always occupied. We are publish
ing this week letter from the pen OF
Mr.. Neval III. Thomas, which contains
statements, which are wellnigh unbe
lievable. We cannot understand how a
gentleman of the high standing and
character of the head Of this institu
tion could have lost his self-control to
the extent as is set forth in this com
munication.
The only charitable view to take OF
the matter is that he has been and is
now suffering from a. nervous break
down and that temporary or perman'
ent vacation is needed to restore him
to his former vigor and usefulness. Mr..
Thomas charges him with race preJu
dice. This is as serious charge as Is
the unfortunate happening, which is al
legged to have taken place within the
confines of the presidential Office. We
are of the opinion however that the
public forum is hardly the place to
parade these unfortunate conditions
and that formal charge should be made
before the Board of Trustees, who no
doubt has the power to either make
or unmake Presidents.
