AL Smiths Chances

AL Smiths Chances
At present writing II seems that
AL Smith has the Democratic nomi-
nation almost sewed up in the sack.
The 143 delegates from the ex-
IRENE Ku Klux states have no can
didate around whom to crystalize
their opposition to him. McAdoo
will probably emerge to emit one
last despairing shrek and then sink
into political oblivion. ColoFed
folks everywhere are talking Smith.
II seems that the shadow of the
Ku KluX Khan rests upon every
white man who is not Irish. Catho-
lie or Jewish. Many think to make
certain that no Kluxer gets into
the white house by voting for no
Republican whatever for this office
since the great Indiana exposure of
Republicans and Ku Kluxers. But
the New Yorker is no special friend
to the colored people. Neither is
he any special enemy. Like the
majority of people of foreign des-
cent he is neutral as to us, and must
De Wooed and won. Merely voting
for AL Smith will not bring about
the millennium.
