GREAT DEMAND
IS SHOWN FOR
HIS SPEECHES
NORTH Carolima's Chief
Adds Laurels To His
Fame In SPeecb-M Making
Tour.
=. BY LEGETTE T

Some time ago it was forecast by
friends of Governor o. Max Gardner
that he was rapidly reaching a politi-
cal level that would assure his being
given consideration for the vice presi-
Dental nomination on the 1882 DEM
ocratic ticket.
The national recognition accorded
him through publication of his article
in The Saturday Evening Post on
North Cardinals recent rather unique
legislative reforms, called Zone State
Cleans House." was pointed to as a
probable boost for the North Caro-
lima governor.
But within the last month or So,
the governors friends are beginning
to point out, Mr.. Gardner has been
adding laurels to his political crown
in many widely scattered areas of the
country. He was the recent honor
guest and principal speaker at 4 meet
ing of actors in New York city and
the metropolitan press gave him flat
tering attention in its report of his
visit and his speech.
The other day he addressed the gen.
eral assembly of Virginia, was sceiv-
ed with enthusiasm and made a great
impression, apparently, upon North
Cardinals sister to the north. A few
days later MI. Gardner was speaking
before the Kentucky legislature, where
he was made a Kentucky colonel"
on the staff Of Governor Ruby Laf-
foon.
Governor Gardner was the honor
guest of the Miami, Fla, Committee
of One Hundred, a civic organization
of the Florida metropolis. He again
made a very favorable impression, ac-
cording o the press accounts.
Governor Gardner is a great orator
and can give a fine account of HIM
self before any audience. He invariably
imPresses any4asserabIy before which
he appears. Perhaps, say his friends, he
may get a chance at Chicago--and
great orators have been known to
stampede national conventions; Viii
liam Jennings Bryan, for instance.
The greatest handicap he faces,
however, is his geographic location. He
is from the south and the south-the
southeast, at least-will hardly be Civ
en- one of the two places on the ma
tional ticket. If this section of the
south is honored with the vice presi-
dental candidates being chosen from
it, however, North Carolina is the ideal
state, since it is nationally regarded as
the outstanding state of the south in
many respects.
If Roosevelt is the presidential NOM
inee, the vice presidential choice will
likely be from the west. If it is Baker,
the same situation will obtain. And
so with Richie or Al Smith. If it is
Garner from Texas, then the vice pres
idential choice will be from somewhere
up east, very likely, despite the fact
that Garner and Gardner" would
make a euphonious team. If it is Bill
Murray-which it won't be-the east
will get the vice presidential candi-
date. If former Governor Harry Flood
Byrd of Virginia is the nominee, GER
tainly his next door neighbor won't
be the vice presidential selection. Byrd,
it might be added, is himself in ex-
%cellent standing for the vice presiden-

PRESIDENT HOOVER
VETOES DEMOCRAT
TARIFF ENACTMENT
Measure Was Passed Primarily
to Mark Differences Be.
tween Parties

Washington, May ll.-(R}-Presi-
dent Hoover Wednesday vetoed the
Democratic tariff bill, which would
have altered the flexible provision by
removing from the chief executive to
the congress the power to change i'm
port duty rates.
The president announced his rejec-
ton of the measure in a long mes
sage to the Democratic house, which
originated the bill. The veto had
been predicted even during debate
prior to the bills final passage.
The Democratic leaders sponsoring
it considered the measure would
serve as an indication OF the party
attitude on the tariff and would be
a quasi-promise of what would be
done If Democrats seize the national
administration in the November elec-
tions. In this light the veto could
only improve its availability as cam
paign material. The Republican reg
ulars are perfectly satisfied also to
join the issue on this basis.
There have been no signs so far of
any serious effort to try overriding
the presidential disapproval.

Governor George White of Ohio

solid backing of his state, while Gov

On the Republican side, President

ing the expected results in Tuesdays
primaries without upset. The presi-
dent also picked up Tennessee and

the movement was expected to be
completed within a month.
From then on, the spokesman said,
Japan expects the U. S. and other
powers interested in Shanghai to see
to it that the terms of the recently
signed truce agreement are observed
by China.
The troops, once returned, would
be held in readiness to return should

Washington, May 1l.-(R-Pros-
poets for higher wheat prices became
brighter Wednesday with the agricul.
ture departments second report on
winter wheat production, placing 1t at
44C, 78l 900 bushels against 7s7, 1865 900
for last year.
Continued unfavorable growing
conditions brought the indicated har-
vest down 100000 bushels from the
April ! forecast of 458,000,O 900. The
May l condition was ISL per cent of
normal.
The prospective total 1892 crop.
both winter and spring, now is be-
tween 65o,0oo,000 and 100000. 900 BUSH
els. Based on average yields. the
spring crop has been estimated at
about 100000 900. but the figure is not
expected to be borne out as farmers
have not followed their intentions to
plant.
Such a reduction from the 1881
harvest of 1900 900 bushels is re-
garded as one Of the brightest spots
in the world wheat situation at the
present time. 1t should tend to re-
duce existing SURPRISES and remove
terminal congestion at marketing
time.
The condition Of winter wheat was
reported by the department Tuesday
as being below average in nearly all
sections except in the area extending
from Illinois east and northeast The
ISL condition compares with 90.3 on
May 1. 1881, and a ten-year average
condition on that date Of 839. The de-
cline in prospects since April 1 was
largely due to unfavorable conditions
in the great plains region.
