Taft and Rooserelt in 1918.


In 1918 there was a change in presi-
dency accompanying change of party.
The circumstances, however, were Pc
culiar. Democratic Candidate Wilson
had beaten, really, two Republicans.
The Republican party had split. Taft
as the Republican President immedi-
ately preceding had run for e-electlon
on the regular Republican ticket. An
other Republican ex-Pres.dent, Theo-
dore Roosevelt, also had run as the
candidate of the Progressive party.
When Wilson won, the country, there
fore. had two living ex-Presidents, both
opposed to the President in ofice.
One condition Of the situation follow
ing 1918 was that, as a practical matter,
neither Taft nor Roosevelt could hope
ever to be President again. They had,
in a political sense, killed each other
of. Both Taft and Roosevelt were, IN
the courses they took. free from any
practicable motive of personal ambition.
They were free to be unmoved by any
desire on the part Of their political fol-

In the Taft Administration.

In the Taft Administration.
From 1909 until 1918 there was the
same condition as recently, an analogy
to Mr.. Hoover and Mr.. Coolidge. There
was in Office a Republican President,
Taft, and in private life a Republican
ex-President, Theodore Roosevelt. The
relation between them was exceptional
in that Roosevelt had, literally, made
Taft President. That 1909-1913 situa-
ton turned out to be one of the most
sensational in American history.
For three years Roosevelt refrained
from publicly criticizing Taft, although
privately he felt he had good reason
to find fault with Taft in the White
House. Then. as Taft approached the
close Of his term, and as the matter
Of the next Republican presidential
nomination came near, Roosevelt turned
upon Taft violently. A little later
Roosevelt announced that he would
himself try for the nomination to which
Taft was by custom entitled. Roosevelt
tried and lost. There ensued the split
in the Republican party, the organiza-
ton of the Progressive party-and, of
course, Democratic victory.
Case of Grover Cleveland
To find a true analogy to Mr.
Hoover,s situation we must go back to
the l880s and 1905. Mr.. Hoover's
situation Is that of President belong
ing TO one party who has served one
term, has run for reelection and has
lost to. the other party. That was
duplicated twice In the 1905.
Grover Cleveland was elected Demo-
cratic President in 1884, served one
term, ran for reelection and was
defeated by Republican Benjamin
Harrison. Cleveland from 1889 until
1893 was in the situation in which Mr..
Hoover will now be- In that case,
Cleveland at the end Of the four-year
interval was renor1inated by his party,
was reelected and served from 1893
to 1897.
The identical situation, with the
parties reversed, occurred about the
same time Benjamin Harrison, Re-
publican, was elected in 1888, served
one term, ran for reelection at the
end of 1t, and was defeated by Cleve-
land After four years, although
Harrison was still alive, he was not
renominated by the Republicans.

 They had procured some detec- tive books before leaving to induce sleep on the train. In the same drawing room, Akerson occupied the upper berth and the Chief the lower. Far into the night they read as the train rambled on. Presently Akerson heard a tap ping below.
 'How many murders have you got up there, Son?" asked Hoo- yer.
 "Folr up to now, Chief" replied Akersoll.

MINING SHOWS MORE ACTIVITY
 AT MOOSE PASS
Williams, Back from Road Inspection, Reports
 Growth In Industry

The Moose Pass district adja- cent to Seward and tributary to the Alaska Railroad and s.Soose Pass Highway is notable for aug mented mining activity, according to M. D. Williams, District En- gineer, United States Bureau of Public Roads, who returned home this morning on the steamer Aleu- tian after several weeks absence. He inspected reconstruction in pro- gress on Moose Pass Highway and maintenance work in that district and at Cordova.
 Roadwork is moving ahead at a normal pace although in scope it is much below the average, due to the curtailment of allotments from the Forest Road Fund by Con- gress last Spring. By the end of this month reconstruction of the first section of Moose Pass High way will have been completed, MT. Williams said.
 There is more mining activity in the areas served by the high way than for great many years, MT Williams said He estimated that there is double the number of men there now than have been engaged in mining since the road was first constructed.
 New placer ground is being ex- plored and developed. Old and proven placer property has recently changed hands and both groups are showing excellent results.
 The Hirshey mine, a quartz prop erty on Palmer Creek, one of the oldest properties in that section of Alaska, has recently passed into new ownership and plans call for steady development and operation.

GEO. EMERSON IN POLITICAL
 SCENE AGAIN
Son Will Handle Eastern Publicity for Presi-
 dent Hoover
By HERBERT HUMMER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Return of that burly and now gray-haired chap, George Akerson, to the poli- tical scene-as Eastern publicity director for the Hoover campaign, somehow seems to be just one of those things that were bound to happen. &
 Moss Washington newsmen and political observers never quite be- came accustomed to his absence in and around the White House. His relationship with Hoover had it's beginning when the President made up his mind definitely to seek the Republican nomination.
 At least that's what everybody thought when George quit news paper work back in 1925 to become a member of Hoover's personal of- flee staff in the Department of Commerce.
 He was regarded from the start essentially as a political press representative.

HE'S "SONn' TO HOOVER

But there are other reasons, perhaps more personal, why Ak erson has forsaken his desk as a motion picture executive to do pub lieity again for President Hoover. There has been an unusual ilti- mate side to the relationship through the years of these two men.
 It was AkerSon, as much as any one, who made the Chief" known to che world. He always talked of the Chief" wherever he went. Everybody knows the President s dislike for those little human stor- ies of his sayings and doings so valuable for publicity purposes.
 But he did much to make Hoo- yer understood in the days that he was with him as his secretary.
 To the President, he was never "Geot ge," or "Akerson," Always it was Son" And when he left the White House he went with the assurance of both the President and Mrs. Hoover that they would ever regard him as ''Son"-a mem Der Of the family.
 Perhaps this, more than any other one thing, prompted him to return to the firing line to battle for the Chief once more.

The fact that he has n o evidence to support these wild statements, and
that Chairman Summers knows that Wdl has none, does not deter Wol
from demanding that Congress take steps at once to give the Department
of Justice power to watch the radicals and deal vigorously" with them.
Recent rapid gain in sentiment in Congress favorable to recognition of the
Soviet Union, and hence to destruction of the Red Menace racket which
enables VOL and Easley to continually obshuct the enactment of progress
slve legislation, has apparently led to this outburst.
VOLTS methods in Washington have long been a matter of embarrass-
ment to genuine spokesman of the labor movement-n and out of Con-
gress. His friends are such antilabor men Is Bingham, Watson, Reed,
Moses and Smoot. They quote him, in tariff debates, as demanding this
or that tariff grab, "n the name Of the American Federation of Labor"
Not long ago Reed was asked whether he knew the A. F. of L. position OF
a certain bill. When he said he did not, he advised to get in touch
with the legislative representative of the Federation, Edward F. McGrady
The Pittsburgh senator answered that he had never heard of McGrady,
but that he knew that the real spokesman for the Federation, whom he al
ways consulted as to its policy was Mike Flynn. He knew Flynn through
Won As a matter of fact, Flynn remains a man of mystery to Federation
headquarters, although he is VOLTS tariff and beer lobbyist at the capitol
He has been for many years a listener at labor conventions.
Vol and Flynn ire bitterly hostile to ell of the progressives in the
Senate and House, and ire cronies of the men who plot the defeat OF pro-
labor lei such as Blaine, Brookhart and Nye, in the coming primaries
Occasionally they whtewash a hardened foe of labor, such as Hatfield of
West Virginia, and the country listens to a eulogy of Mother Jones, oer
the radio, by the former West Virginia governor whose sympathy" with
the United Mine Workers a evidenced in starvation camps of strikers
on many rough hllsdes of that State. Hatfield voted mo o. the hunger
relief bill, after making a long speech against it. What Mother Jones
would ave SAID Of Hatfield, could she have risen from her grave at Mt.
Carmel and spoken, would not have pleased his sponsors.
Congress, fortunately, will not listen to the WonL Easley plea for W.
fascism against classconscous workers in this hunger year in the United
States. Mitchell Palmer and Harry Daugherty with their blackjack brig
AIDES and terrorHahon have made way true, for Secretary Doaks deporta-
tons. But lawmakers will wonder, and ask, why Vol can sign himself

THE WASHINGTON SCENE
(By LAURENCE TODD.)

VOL and Ralph Eaaey of the Nation
a CIVIC Federation are out in another appeal to Congress to set up a
dGectvefasclst regime in this country to stamp out radicalsm, under
pdense that the Communists are a public menace. They have sent a
to Chairman Summers of the House Judiciary Committee, urging him
to hasten the enactment of the bills proposed by the late Fish Committee,
which would create in the Department of Justice a lavshly financed force
to spy upon suspected working class radicals. In view Of the manner in
which coal miners affiliated with the American Federation of Labor are
treated as dangerous radicals in such backward industrial communities as
Harlan county, Kentucky, and western Pennsylvania, the possibilities of
discovery of millions of alleged Communists among the unemployed are
easily to be seen.
WON charges that, according to a report made by Investigators for the
Civic Federation, of which he is acting president, hundreds of millions of
dollars of losses have been incurred through forest and oil well fires,
bombngs, destruction of buildings, lootng of banks" and other crimes
have occurred in the past four months, and which he connects with
Communist agitation. He says that a study of Communist literature
"leads to the conviction that a definite plan of destructive action is being
conducted in this and all other civilized countries"
