GARNER TOO OLD
FOR PRESIDENCY
Otherwise He Would Be Sc
rious Contender To Sue
coed Roosevelt
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press, .COlumniSt

Washington, Sept. eff he was not
quite so old Vice President John N.
Garner undoubtedly would be some
thing more than possibility for the
next Democratic presidential nomina-
ton.
Even elderly as he is. the Texan is
suggested quite frequently.
Of course, these suggestions are not
to be taken seriously. Garner will be
70 in November, 1910. 1t is unimagin-
able that a statesman of his years
should be named as his party's White
House candidate.
All the same, I surmise that the
Lone Star veteran has ambitions IN
hat direction. Naturally he must
know that his chance is exceedingly
slim. Still, "hope springs eternal in the
human breast" Anyway, John N.
-.esn't say .'poh-pooh' when he is
Dresidentially mentioned.
Breaks Precedent.
Garner has broken one precedent.
Hc is the first vice president who ever
has had any political influence. 9th
ers 0ile Theodore Roosevelt and Cal
vim Coolidge) have attained influence
by cling accidentally boosted into the
presidency, but they were not vice
presidentially influential.
Garner is influential now.
without a senatorial vote, he re-
centlv has bossed Senate almost as
effectively as Gar Reed once bossed
the House of Representatives, or as
"IJncle Joe" Cannon bossed it before
he was overthrown. The legislation he
favors he simply gravels through II
there is objec ion he ignores or squel-
ches it, BY indirection he bosses the
representatives, too.
Indeed, he talks certain amount OF
"turkey" to President Roosevelt.
"Chilled Steel Nerve"
During the first Rooseveltian term
"Texas Jack" was quite inconsplcu-
Gus. ,
It generally was agreed that the
vice presidency had but the "husher
on him, as on his long succession OF
predecessors.
But, when an emergency arose,
"Jack" was right there.
He told President Roosevelt, 'Oh,
phooey!" and went home 20 Uvalde.
Then, a bit later, when the exact
psychological moment had arrived,
back he came and wound up tho ';o'l-

Back of today's headlines is the fact
that our government forced open ia
nan to the world, and also established
the "open door" in China.
1t became known 38 years ago to-
day that Secretary of State John Hay
had trar shifted notes to London, Ber-
lin and Petrograd, concerning "the
desire of this government that the
governments of Great Britain, Ger
many and Russia, make formal decla-
ration Of an open door policy in the
territories held by them in China"
Hay thought the danger of interna-
tic al irritation might be removed by
each power making a declaration re
specting the sphere of influence" in
China to which it laid claim. He sue
ceeded in inducing the other powers
to make such declarations.
Ever since this "open Door" has
kept Hays name in history's pages
Yet, he was not the creator of the
policy, which had deep roots in the
China trade upon which Americas
first eminence- in trade and industry
was founded. He was not even the
inventor of the phrase, "the Open
Door, equality to all"
The latter was introduced in diplo-
matte conversations by Lord Charles
Beresford, who stopped in Washing
ton on his way home to England from
China.
