IN To Doints souin Doints_ s TH'S TRANSFER & STORAU! ¥ | for President, TEXAS IS PLACED N DOUBTFUL LIST Two Groups Seek to Wrest Control of Democracy in State.’ BY BYRON PRICE, Assoclated Press Staff Writer. FORT WORTH, Tex., September 24. —Rocked by dissension of surpassing bitterness, the dry Democratic South is passing through a season of political trial and torment not easily understood | by other sections and involving possi- bilities extremely difficult to assess. Although wholly unable to visualize a complete obliteration of the overwhelm- g Democratic majorities of other | years, party leaders no longer regard the Southern bolt as the whim of a few agitators. They recognize it as a vital force, having its fountain head in issues of the most explosive character. Protestant ministers and women make up an important element in its militant leadership, imparting much of the fervor of a crusnde, 2nd its ranks in- clude also politicians of consequence, who contribute the practical knowledge of their years of political schooling. Church Made Issue. ‘The issue of prohibition and Tam- many furnish the visible motive power behind this Southern thrust at Smith. ‘Whether its real mainspring is religion is a much-argued subject. The Demo- cratic regulars do not hesitate to say it is, despite repeated denials. It 1si certain that the nominee’s Catholicism is widely talked about among the vot- ers, that anti-Catholic literature is cir- culated, and that some campaign speakers openly attack Smith because he is a Catholic. Against this attack the Smith leaders raise the rallying cries of tolerance, white supremacy and a party loyalty in all kinds of weather. In Texas, largest of the Southern States and rated the banner Democratic State of the Union, these considera- tions and uncertainties are intensified by the State's vast geographical and political dimensions. It is difficult for the best informed to make predictions. The leaders for and against Smith have given the Associated Press their re- spective estimates, and the sum total of them all is a candid agreement that for the first lime in a generation Texas is a political battleground. To understand the immensity of the possibilities here involved, it is neces- sary to consider that Texas has 254 counties of an average area about equal to that of the State of Rhode Island; that all forms of organization are ac- cordingly handicaped; that the voters include "alike the flower of the old Southern aristocracy and a considerable group of Mexican emigrants; that ma- terial interests are represented by such diverse symbols as the cotton field, the ranch, the oil well and the factory, and that the present campaign has inherited at least a half dozen old political feuds, like that over the Fergusons and that over the Klan. Three Organizations. Over this vast expanse three con- stitutionally weak organizations are at- tempting to spread their influence, and incidentally to ascertain, with indif- ferent success, what really is likely to happen on November 6. One is the anti - Smith _organization, - militant enough, but showing the lack of co- ordination inherent in such pioneer ventures. Another is the Republican State organization, so hopelessly in the minority as to amount at times to little mort than a party emblem. Finally, there is the Democratic organization, which for many years has faced no need for a serious compaign, and now, in its hour of necessity, is handicap- ped by material defections. Apparently none of these organizations has the machinery just now to gauge accurately how the voters of 254 counties are likely to perform on election day. At the head of the anti-Smith Demo- crats is Alvin S. Moody, a politician of some experience, who says his organ- ization now has representation in 150 counties, and will be in all of them within another week. Another leader of this group is State Senator Thomas B. Love, a former national committee- man and an erstwhile leader of the McAdoo-for-President movement. A third is former Gov. O. B. Colquitt, who, strangely enough, has in past times opposed both prohibition and the Klan. It is asserted by the anti-Smith lead- ers that the Methodist and Baptist ministers of the State are virtually unanimous for Hoover, and that nearly half of -the weekly and small daily papers are out against Smith. Large defections are claimed in the cities, and these leaders predict Hoover will carry every important city in Texas. DEMOCRAT FOR HOOVZR. “Regular” Will G. 0. P. Candidate. DALLAS, September 24 (&) —Benton McMillin of Zavilla, Tex., member of the “regular” Democratic State execu< tive committee for the third senatorial district, will support Herbert Hoover the Texas anti-Smith headquarters here has announced. McMillin was the only member of the committee who refused to pledge support of Smith at the recent meeting of the committee here prior to the State convention. At that time he said he would not vote for Smith, but was not ready to say he would be for Hoo- ver. It was found the committee had no power to oust him. . THREE QUAKES FELT.

THE TFEVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. €., MONDAY. SEPTEMBER | Against Hoover | CHURCH IN POLITICS Sccres Statement by Presbyterian Moderator Favoring Hoover. By the Associated Press. Dr. Henry Van Dyke yesterday issued a statement in which he said in part: “The folly and danger of dragging the church into politics has just received a new illustration. Rev. Dr. Walker, mod- erator of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, has just issued a pronounciamento in the official organ of that church in which, writing in his official capacity, he declares it is ‘the plain duty of every churchman to work and pray and vote for the election of Herbert Hoover.” “This is an astounding attitude. May a humble Presbyterian, who has himself held the honorable office of moderator in that church be permitted to ask po- litelv by what right or authority Dr. Walker assumes this ‘temvoral domin- jon’ in the United States?” Will Rogers Says: NEW YORK.—In Omaha Al re- lieved the farmers; in Oklahoma (near Claremore) he bawled out the Baptists, but in Denver he reached his peak when he told about the power trusts. It's no novelty to hear th: farm- ers verbally re- lieved, and to reprimand a Prot- estant is nothing new, for they do that to each other, bu% when you hop on the power trusts you are standing on the very arches of privilege. I had a joke about the power lobby in the papers and I got so many letters from power mag- nates saying “there was no power lobby” that it almost made me lose faith in rich men.

BOSCOBEL, Wis., September 24.— One of Wisconsin's two progressive Re- publican United States Senators will not { yote for or support Herbert Hoover for President. Casting aside his_reticence on the national campaign, John G. Blaine, in a statement issued at his home here, | defended his decision with the assertion that “no Republican owes any political allegiance to Mr. Hoover as presidential nominee.” Senator Blaine, in the first statement issued by a Wisconsin United States Senator on the coming national elec- tion, recounted Mr. Hoover's associa- tion with the Wilson administration, when he was food administrator. Tells of Democratic Inclination, “Mr. Hoover in 1920 sought and was willing to accept the nomination for President on the Democratic ticket,” his statement read. ‘“After he was con- vinced that he would not receive the Democratic nomination, he declared ‘I must vote for the party that stands for the League of Nations.” “Eight years ago, when he assumed President Wilson's policies were popular, 1e was willing to capitalize those policies if h:w Democratic party would nominate “The only diTerence between Gov. Smith and Mr. Hoover is a period of eigint years. Gov Smith has been con- sistently a Democrat; Mr. Hoover has been willing to embrace either party for the presidential nomination. Declared Candidate by Adoption. “Under these circumstances no one's Republicanism can be questioned if he fails to vote for Mr. Hoover. From the party view the Republicans have no candidate excepting a candidate by adoption. “Mr. Hoover is opposed to practically all of the policies of the great mass of Progressive Republicans and inde- pendent forward-thinking people of America. Hence, Mr. Hoover does not stand for the things for which I stand. I will not support him nor vote for him.” COOLIDGE IS INTERESTED IN ILLINOIS CAMPAIGN Glenn, G. 0. P. Senatorial Candi- date, Confers With President and Hoover. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, September 24.—President Coolidge is intensely interested in the senatorial race in Illinois, Otis F. Glenn, Republican candidate for the Senate, said last night on his return from Washing! where he conferred with the President and Herbert Hoover. “The President was particularly in- terested in the senatorial campaign here,” said Glenn, “because of the very close balance of party lines in the Sen- ate at present. “David E. Shanahan, -Louis L. Em- merson and I outlined the progress of the campaign in Illinois while in Washington. The President expressed his satisfaction with the manner in which it is being conducted and Mr. Hoover was particularly enthusiastic over the very comprehensive program we have developed for covering the State during the next few weeks. “He Is confident that the Republican ?llfiy "wfll carry Illinois by a big ma- FLAT TIRE ?

CALIFORNIA DEMOCRAT WOMAN OUT FOR HOOVER Former Member of State Central Committee Will Vote Repub- lican Ticket. By the Associated Press. GLENDALE, Calif., September 24— Mrs. Elizabeth Flourney Smith of Glen- dale, until recently a member of the Democratic State central committee, has announced her intention to vote for Herbert Hoover for President. In her letter of resignation to H. H. McPike, chairman of the State com- mittee, Mrs. Smith declared her oppo- sition to what she termed the directing of the Democratic campaign by Tam- many Hall. She also declared that the eighteenth ‘amendment would be ‘“‘en- dangered” should Gov. Alfred E. Smith, the Democratic nominee, be elected. Mrs. Smith was not named in the re- organized State central committee formed last week.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark., September 24. —Somewhere in the Ozark Mountains near here, Senator J. T. Robinson, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, was a recluse today. If he succeeds in carrying out his desires, he will be lost for three days to the political world as the mythical Rip Van Winkle was lost once to the world of progress. “I want to rest, I want to fish, I want to prepare for some speeches,” was the substance of the language used by the Senator in announcing his intention of Ltvolunt.nry retirement from the political | stage. _ He got the jump on press representa- tives at the very outset. “Now, I'm go- ing to ——,” he told them, “but don't say anything about it.” ‘While that statement shut up and shut off the press, it did not have any apparent effect on many other persons. Hardly had the Senator arrived from Little Rock yesterday afternoon before half a dozen persons knew whegre he was going and none of them seemed to regard the fact as confidential. Retreat Secret Fails. The Arlington Hotel here, where he usually stops, was beseiged with rc- quests as to his whereabouts, and al- though no information was forthcom- ing from that source, any cne who could not find out where he had gon= | was a poor detective. He was accompanied into the “land of nowhere” by one of his long stand- | ing friends and fishing companions, Willilam Sheppard, Little Rock. Other members of his party included Grady Miller, his brother-in-law, and Carey Martin, his secretary. It is expected that he will be joined today by W. H. Martin, Hot Springs. also an old friend, and tomorrow by Vincent, M. Miles, Fort Smith, Demo- cratic ‘national committeeman from Arkansas. To Work on Speeches. Before departing for the mountain retreat, which in reality is a comfort- ably furnished Summer home of a friend located by the side of a little lake that is full of fish, the Senator said he hopad to complete half a dozen speeches to be used on the Western campaign trip. This trip will be begun September 27 with a speech at Springfield, Mo.. and will be continued until October 23, when he will conclude with an ad- dress in Fargo, N. Dak. The tour will carry the vice presidential nominee to the Pacific Coast and back and will call for more than a score of speeches in 15 States. s szt I Presidential Apt 16th and L Sts. N.W.
