Larau DULLAL Democrats Look to Primaries to Sort Out List of Pres (Continued From Pirst Page.) Franklin D. Roosevelt, if he wishes, from filing his name in the Ohio pri- mary and that of Illinois if he or his friends wish to do so. But there has been a kind of unwritten law among candidates to keep out of States where “favorite sons" are running. been the practice first because difficult to defeat a favorite son candi- date in his own bailiwick and seccnd, because it 1s good policy to have these favorite sons wi'ling lo?n business with A strong candidate when the conven- ddent Hoover cast aside when he went into the Ohlo primary. to_run inst the late Senatér Frank B. Willla. died in the midet of the primary cam. paign, but his friends kept up the fight which ended with Mr. Hoover having the big majority of the Ohio delega- tion. At that time there was a kind of league among the senatorial aspirants for the Republican presidential nom- ination to head off Mr. Hoover by lining up & lot of favorite-son delegations who could bs handled in the convention against Hoover. The Hoover supporters deuxamlned to smash the plan if they could. Smith Demonstrates Strength. In the 1028 pre-convention campaign, former Gov. Alfred E. Smith of I‘i‘e’: York, went into a lot of the prefer- ential primaries and won in nearly all hat he entered, if not all, demonstrating his great strength as a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. The Democrat who repeats Gov. Smith'’s performance in these primaries next year will be a hard man to, defeat in the national convention. In the first place, a winner in a majority of the preferential primaries will have d>m- onstrated his strength with the voters themeelves. The Democrats nevt year are more intent upon picking a win- ning candidate than they are in plaving A game for any particular man's per- | sonal ambitions. They want to elect | a President. They are likely to throw | aside all other considerations at the | convention and pick the man who has shown the most strength. This makes the preferential primaries all the more important in the race for the Demo- cratic nomination next year. It becomes increasingly important also that candidates for the nomination get into the race early for State dele- | gations. Nothing succeeds like success. | this rule . Willis If Roosevelt, for example, or Ritchie, We or Baker could clean up in State| preferential primaries early next year | his stock would mount amazingly.” It is generally expected that, Gov. Roose- velt will put the matter to the test in the primaries and that Ritchie may do likewise in a number of the States. Certainly if the rest of the candidates hang back and leave the field in these primary States to one man it will not | get them very far. Sitting around and theorizing while another man is getting the votes and the publicity in these pri- maries it not likelv to be a reel help to any of the candidates. It just hap- pens that the States fn which primaries are held have few favorite son eandi- dates. which makes such a game as was plaved in 1928 against the Hoover nomination by the Republican Senators practicaly an impossibility. | Democratic List Elastic. The list of presidential possibilities in the Democratic party is elastic. may grow at any time. Here, however, | is at least a tentative list: Roosevelt of New York, former Gov. Smith and Owen D. Young, also of New York; Newton D. Baker, Gov. George White, Senator | Bulkley and former Gov. Cox, all of Ohio: former Senator “Jim" Reed of Missour, Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkanras, Gov. Ritchie of Maryland, Senator Lewis of Illinois, former Gov. Harry Flood Byrd and Senator Carter | Glass of Virginia. Senator Hull of Ten- nessee, Senator George of Georgia and Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi. | There are fifteen. There may be others and probably wiil be unless the swing | is decidedly to one candidate some | time before the convention opens | The name of former Gov. Smith has been repeatedly used in connection with the Democratic nomination next year. Gov. Smith, & wise man, is saying noth- ing at this time. It will be interesting to see what attitude he will take when the time rolls round for the first of the presidential preferential primaries If he himself enters his name in any of these primaries, or if he permits others to enter him. he will be immedi- | ately hailed as a full-fledged candidate. | Many of the Democratic leaders insist | that Gov. Smith has not the slightest intention of permitting his name to go before the voters or before the next Democratic National Convention. He is saying nothing, however, they insist because it is obvious that if he took | himself aboslutely out of the race he | would merely lose a very great influence | which he is likely to wield in the na- | tional convention. | Of the 16 prominent Democrats listed | as presidential possibilities some of them are obviously favorite son candi- dates of the most local kind. Take for | PADLOCKED MINDS BY BRUCE E were discussing Rus- sia_at the dinner table of a banker. None of us knew anything about the subject, but that did not prevent a long and animated conversa- tion. The general opinion, forcibly expressed, was that Stalin and his associates represent the great menace to the present- day world. It was even urged that all the capitalistic powers ought to combine to overthrow the bolshevik regime. Finally I made a timid sug- gestion, I said that it seemed to me probable than the Russian ex- perimerit will have to be very much modified or it will fail. It appears to run contrary to too many deep-seated human instincts. Man is moved by the ambi- tion to acquire opportunity and security for his children. The bolsheviks deny him the right of acquisition. Man is “incurably religious”; the bol- sheviks have attempted to abolish God. Sooner or later, man has always revolted against unbridled autocracy under whatever guise or name. “But,” I continued, waxing a little bolder, “any one who looks over the capitalistic countries today must admit that our economic organiza- tion leaves a lot to be desired.

Nominate By Two-thirds. ‘The Democratic National Conventions nominate for President and Vice Presi- dent by a two-thirds vote. Periodically there is a movement to change to the majority plan of nominating, but it | never comes to anything. It is to be! presumed, therefore, that the nomina- tions will be made in 1932 by a two- thirds vote of the delegates attending the national convention. The two- thirds rule may at times, and has, brought. about serious deadlocks. For | example, such was the case in 1912 | when Champ Clark of Missouri was an outstanding candidate, but lost to| ‘oodrow Wilson finally, and in 1024 | when William Gibbs McAdoo led the | field for about a hundred ballots only to lose in the end to John W. Davis. | But in 1928, despite -the talk of oppo- sition to Al Smith, he was nominated on the first ballot The South today, despite its favorite son candidates, is well sold to the Roosevelt candidacy, and the solid South has almost a third of all the delega‘es. If Roosevelt can win in a considerable number of the primary ly one of which is located in the South—he will have just so many more delegates to count on. Unless present indications are at fault he will have the big New York delegation be- hind him. and a number of the dele- | _ gations from Western States where no | primaries are held. The primary | States hav total of 478 votes in the | convention. but the non-primary States, | plus the District of Columbia, the Ter- | ¢ | ritories and possessions, have a total of | 622 delegates, making a total of 1,098 delegates unless the number iz changed | under the call sent out by the Demo- cratic National Committee next Winter. | SelBuali o .

What a frightful thing it is for factories to be shut down for lack of orders while a large percentage of the hu- man race still lacks adequate clothing and shelter. “Instead of condemning the Russians out of hand, wouldn’t whether they discover any- thing, no matter how small, that we could apply to make our own decrépit economic machine a little better?” Recently I read an article b¥] Prof. Harold J. Laski, in which he pointed out how every new idea that ever came into the world has been op- posed by the “experts.” “Not even 50 great a surgeon as Stmpson could see merit in Lister’s discovery of antiseptic treatment. The opposition to Pasteur was so vehement that he declared regretfully that he did not know he had so many enemies.” Napoleon scoffed at the steamship. Wellington was never persuaded that the breech-loading rifle was any good. Vanderbilt refused to entertain the crazy notion that Westinghouse @ould stop his trains by “jamming air against the wheels.” . If we keep our minds open to new ideas we are bound to be misled often, and some- times to be ridiculous. But the surest way of all to be wrong is to assume that God has completed His process of revelation and that the world tomorrow will be exact- 1y like the world today.
