. “Who Ever Heard b of Ice in July?” ' That was the old farmer’s ex- clamation to a party of tourists "who stopped for “milk all *round,” and asked for ice. Cer- tain it is that even in Wash- ington nothing like so much ice would be heard of in July except for American’s five lants that make and store ice in winter to meet July’s heavy demands. And yougnot only hear of but HEAR pure. sphrking American ice every- where—tinkling in the fragrant glass of iced tea; in the refreshing lemon- ade; and in the chocolate-flavored wiilk shakes the youngsters so much enjoy.

Robinson of Arkansas—de- serve to be mentioned in any discus- sion of presidential candidacies on the democratic ticket, not because any one of them appears to have a chance in 1924, but as favorite sons they will command certain delega- tions that must be reckoned with be- fore a final selection is made. There are two reasons why the three seflators, able men though they be, would hardly be chosen. One, of course, i8 the political habit of the democratic leaders in seeking a can- didate, not from the certain demo- cratic sections, but from the uncer- tain or doubtful territory. Similarly, the republicans rarely pick a man from Pennsylvania, because it is as solidly republican as Virginia is dem- ocratic. Are Liberal Conservative: The other reason, so controlling, but' it will have an important influence—all three men are liberal conservatives. It will not be enough to be “progressive” in 1924, for if the democrats care anything about the west they must actually name a “radical.”” The Ford movement }is symptomatic of the radical wave. This would be an ideal occasion for Willlam Jennings Bryan. Were he able today to make the kind of cam- paigns he made in 1896 and 1900 he the imagination of the ricultural west. Politically speak- ing, he reached the climax of his career too soon. For they are thinking, talking and preaching Bryanism out west toda: There is an even more radical co plexion to the electorate of the west than Bryan ever attempted to bring about in his palmlest days. Even President Harding has caught the western waves and has begun to get more and more in tune with them as he sofourns in the west. Senator Oscar Underwood is one of the ablest men the democratic party ever produced. He is a “wet.” He has the confidence of business men. He is especially adroit as a leader in politics and knows how to handle | the House and Senate. Had he ema- nated from New York state there would today be little question about the probability of his selection. The politicians have not forgotten the strength Mr. Underwood developed in the Baltimore convention of 1912, Carter Glass’ Record. Senator Carter Glass of Virginia has contributed to public service one of the outstanding pieces of legisla- tion of this generation—the present federal reserve act. As Secretary of the Treasury he made a splendid rec- ord. He has always been identified with the “progressive” school of democracy. The barriers to his nom- ination for the presidency are not alone his southern residence, but his lack of especial appeal to the radical elements of the west. Of course, if the democratic party strives for an eastern and southern combination of however, is not radicalism of either Mr. Underwood or Mr. Glass would not be a factor. Then both would probably be elim- inated because the northern demo- cratic organization leaders have usually been able to convince thdir outhern brethren that the only chance to win the northern vote in the doubtful states lies in the selec- Practical politics rather than logic makes such a course cus- tomary and it is unforunate that men Iike Senators Underwood and Glass suffer that handicap. But it exists and no political analyst can ignore it. Chance for Robinwon, As for Senator Robinson of Arkansas, he will have a chance to get in the limelight in the coming session of Congress. As leaderof the democrats in the Senate in succession to Senator Underwood, Mr. Robinson will be the master strategist. It was just after Mr. Underwood served his party as| the leader of the House in 1912 that | he developed his greatest strength in the democratic national convention at Baltimore. Arkansas is sufficiently western to ‘appeal to some of the agriculturalists of the wheat and corn belt, but here, too, if the sec- tional argument doesn’t eliminate Senator Robinson from the race, his opportunity “will turn entirely on what kind of a radical he is. Will | he be able to strike the Ford note, ! the Bryan or La Folleite key to the west? In the hands of Mr. Robinson lie to a large extent the fate of his party, even though he may not win first place on the ticket himself. If he does not make his party more radical than the Harding leadership of the republicans indicates that the In- cumbent party will be, he cannot hope for the western vote, The latter will either remain republican—concen- trating on state elections—or throw the welght of its influence to a third party movement. The west is in the mood for change. It is groping for a. Bryan or a Follette. That's the secret of the Ford strength. Any real radical can absorb that strength over night.

The first week of Commissioner Oyster's public appeal for funds with which to open more school play- grounds has netted $1,246 and the services of two volunteer playground workers. One of the most encouraging de- velopments of the week was the let- ter written by Dr. L. 8. Rowe, di- rector general of the Pan-American Union, accompanied by a check for $10. Crandall Give $500. The largest contribution of the week was $900 from Harry Crandall, motion picture theater owner, to be used in paying the splary of an ad- ditional play leader on each of the playgrounds nearest his five theaters. These grounds are: Wallach-Towers School, 8th street and Pennsylvania | avenue southeast; Park View play- ground, Warder and Otis streets; Johnson-.Powell, Park road and Hyatt nlace; Haves, Gth and K streets northeast, and the Jefferson, 6th and D streets southwest. ke Jullus 1.
