GARNER TO LEAD
DEMOCRATS IN
new CONGRESS-
If Party Should Get Majority
He Probably Will Be
Speaker.
BY HERBERT LITTLE

United Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Jack
Garner of Texas, who shoots from
the hip in his congressional battles
of words and wits, is to be the new
Democratic leader in the house OF
representatives.
The present house minority lead
err. Finis j. Garrett of Tennessee
has announced his candidacy fol
the Senate seat now held by Ken
meth Mcclellan, and John Nance
Garner, Democratic taZ expert and
veteran of twelve consecutive terms
is in line for CARROTS job.
Little discussion is heard among
Democrats of any other possible
candidate, and Garner probably will
be elected when the SEVENTEEN
Congress convenes early in De-
cember.
May Become Speaker
Garrett will serve through the
next session, which will adjourn be-
fore the 1923 elections when his
political fate will be decided, but
his campaign work back home
probably will prevent his seeking
the leadership this winter.
Gamers leadership has been
built on his tax maneuvers, and
even If he should not become
minority leader this winter, he
would in fact lead the Democrats
in their greater prediction battle,
seeking to take the glory of the
next tax reduction from the Re-
publicans.
And If the. Democrats gain a
majority of the house in the 1928
elections, the peppery Texan would
be one of the first to be considered
for speaker.
Popular in Congress
Garner is known to many as the
most popular Democrat in Congress,
among both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. The Republicans like him
personally and admire him as a
hard, quick witted fighter, but not
an obstructionist when his cause
is lost.
Garner carries easily his years,
which will number fifty-nine by the
time he starts his thirteenth term
this winter. His white hair and
f1orid face, over a medium short
figure, mark him well at his COM
mittee appearances and his less
frequent speeches on the floor.
Speaker Nicholas Longworth
has paid Garner tribute as zone of
the ablest, shrewdest and most
rcsourceful of men,"

If the voluntary reduction is al
