BY FREDERIC W “Mr. X" s at this strongest democratic presidential probability for 1924. The unknown quantity has the inside track and s likely to have It when the national convention begins balloting for a nominee. That is the judgment of one of the shrewdest observers in| the democratic party—Homer S. Cum- mings of Connecticut, “keynoter” and temporary chairman of the 1920 con- vention at San Francisco. Cummings, a favorite son, is himself a (mn(‘elv-l M WILE. writing the able “Mr. X The former democratic national chairman has just passed through | Washington en route to a golfing | holiday at Pinehurst.

Ad- mitting the undoubted strength, at the start at least, of aspirants like McAdoo, Tuderwood, Smith, Ralston and Davis—to name only those most Cummings, “was mentioned nowadays—I cannot figure out how any of them is going to capture the votes—two-thirds— ne: ry to nominate in our conven- tion. IfT were required to bet on the identity of the nominee today, 1 wouldn't back anybody but Mr. X. He | looks to me at the moment the only | ‘sure thing’ in our stable. The man we choose may be sitting in the con- vention among the delegates. He may be a politician whose nume is hardly known or thought of at this time. He may be a senator or a governor des- tined to make a national reputation etween now and June, 1924. Hé may be an even humbler democrat who will electrify the convention at a psychological moment with a great | speech, Never were the possibilitles more incalculable.” Says Ford Hooverizes. Mr. Cummings was asked if Henry Ford doesn’t measure up to “Mr. X" dimensions. “The trouble with Ford,” he replied “is that he {5 ‘Hooverizing.' By thu® I mean he is no more out in the open as to his party alignment than Her- bert Hoover was in the winter of 1919-1920. Nobody knows definitely whether Ford is a real democrat or a real republican. You hear talk of his entering the primaries of both par- ties. Out where the west begins, men and women are ‘talking Ford,’ no matter what kind of a ticket he runs on. Democrats aren't accustomed to give presidential nominations to non- descripts.” Ryan Backs Underwood. This crrespondent s Informed in well posted democratic quarters that "|Senator Oscar W.
