WILSON AND HOWELL
CHOICE OF GEORGIA
i' ———ee.
Atlanta, March 22—The time limit
of 30 days set for democratic presi
dential nominees and national commit
teemen from Georgia having expired
at midnight Monday, St. Elmo Mes
sengale, secretary of the democratic
executive committee of Georgia, yes
t-(:rday notified Secretary T. J. Pence
and Chairman William I, McCoombs
of the democratic national (~x<-(~utiw'%
committee, that Clark Howell was na-|
tional committeeman from Georgia ht»i
cause no candidate had presented lim
self for opposition during the Hxiriyj
days set by the state executive com
mittee, ‘
The fact that no other presidential
candidate from the democratic party
has been nominated in Georgia during
the thirly days also makes President
Wilson the unanimous choice of Geor
vgiu democrats. There being no oppo
sition to either President Wilson or
Mr. Howell, no state-wide primary will
be held. President Wilson will receive
the unanimous endorsement of the
state democratic convention a! V
con on May 3, and Georgia’s entire
vote of 28 delegates to the St. Louis
convention in June will be instructed
to cast the votes for him.
