POLITICAL PARADE
BY GEORGE ROTHWELL BROWN

In the matter Of fair play az
essential 10 political victories,
Gov. Bricker has himself. OF
course. set a most conspicuous
example
1t now seems that he VIII reap
the benefits OF his own unself-
lshneSs.
1T WILL be recalled that four
Il years ago when he was first
prominently mentioned for the
Republican nomination for pres
ident, he stepped aside in order
that Senator Bob Taft might
have the right OF way.
Mr.. Bricker was then only A
one-term governor, but Senator
Taft was even A newer arrival
in the national arena He was
a baby senator, VINO had not
Vet made the reputation which
he has since made IN rfTe Senate.
Interestingly enough, when
the big crisis arose in the
Philadelphia convention Of 1910
the delegations Of states having
Republican senator's did not 90
over TO Taft.
Today Taft is an active
candidate for denomination and
reelection TO the Senate, and
is supporting Gov. Bricker.
While Bricker, no longer a
baby governor. is the three
Unrestricted governor of the
great state of Ohio. with IFS
formidable bloc Of electoral
votes.
Moreover. he has established
an impressive record as an able
administrator and The foe Of
waste, extravaganza. and pOliti-
cal favoritism in government.
Not the sort of man 10 push
himself out OF turn, 10 seek to
advance himself unduly ahead
Of the psychological moment.
Gov. Bricker has obviously
won the respect Of his party.
His availability as the possible
nominee of his party rests
SolidlX on character hlIltAand
geography.

CHICAGO. Jan. II Gov.
~ Broker has made his for
NAL entry INTO the 1914 precon-
vention presidential campaign
with a distinction and AN ac-
claim that has been most graft
fyng TO his friends here in the
Middle West.
There were some miSglVlngs
about the reception he would be
accorded last week in Detroit,
when he made his initial bow 10
a critical audience OF Michigan
Republicans.
These miSgiyingS which did
not last very long developed
from the fact that the organ

TO be largely Of what is known
in that state as the Willkie
