SENATOR WATSON.
INDIANAN. MAY BE
CODM PJBTH
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 11)23.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—Sena
tor James Watson, of Indiana, came
out of the White House today with
his hat clutched firmly in his hand
and though the photographers be
sought him to toss it into a chalked
ring they had drawn on the pave
ment, the Indian senator laughingly
held on to the emblem of his pros
pective candidacy.
“I haven’t made up my mind
yet,” the senator Isaicl. “I am just
looking the ground over. I haven't
had a chance to talk with the presi
dent and simply made an engage- .
ment today- to see him next week for
an hour or so.”;
“Are you going to discuss your
candidacy with him," the Indianan
was asked.
“Yes, I’m going to talk over the J
whole situation. Maybe he- will not
want to discuss it, but I can do the
talking anyway.”
Declines to Toss Hat
As the photographers surrounded j
Senator Watson and urged him to j
go through the motions of tossing |
his hat in the presidential ring, he ,
suggested that the motion picture j
men ought instead to take pictures
of Senator Medill McCormick, of (
Illinois, “in his cavalry pants.” The
Illinois senator had just preceded
Senator Watson in the list of White-
House callers.-
Pressed for some further informa,
tion Tibout his candidacy, Senator
Watson remarked that he was talk
ing things over with his friends and
then he added jocularly “maybe I’ll
talk things over with Hiram, too.”
The Indiana senator has denied
that if he were a candidate he would
be a stalking horse for anybody
else. He had been quoted as saying
that he would be a stalking horse
for anybody else. He had been
quoted as saying that he would try
to capture the Indiana delegation
“so as to keep it away from Hiram
Johnson.”
The suspicion is beginning to
grow that Senator Watson Is really
after the Republican nomination for
vice president and that while he may
go out for himself for president in
the campaign he will throw his
strength ultimately' to the Coolidge
boom if he is assured of support for
the vice presidential nomination.
Shrewd Ju±;e of Politics
Indiana has furnished vice
presidential nominees to both the
Republican and Democratic parties.
Os course, Mr. Watson for many
years has had the idea of becoming
president. But he is too shrewd a
judge of political matters to inter
ject his candidacy into
when the regular Republican organi
zations most everywhere are already'
committed to the nomination of
President Coolidge. He certainly is
not in disagreement with the major
policies of the Coolidge administra
tion. The stor.y is told that Mr.
Watson talked things over with
President Harding a year ago and |
Mr. Harding is reported to have
said:
“Well, Jim, you aye a candidate.
Go ahead and make the race.”
Mr. Harding let it be known that
he wasn’t trying to foreclose the
1924 contest. Mr. Watson, however,
went out after the conference and
announced his support of Mr. Har
ding for renomination. The chances
are he will ultimately be found sup
porting Mr. Coolidge, too.

Pecans Sent Through Mails
LYONS, Gu., Nov. 29. —M. M.
Coleman, Jr., living two miles west
of Lyons, brought in 1.600 pounds
of pecans to ship to the National
Pecan Growers’ association at Al
bany. Os this lot he shipped 1,200
pounds by parcel post as he said
that was cheaper than express. The
pecans were estimated to be worth
an average of 40 cents per pound
and were grown on a three-acre
grove fifteen years old, making a
total gross return of $640. This is
the oldest and at present the larg
est bearing pecan orchard in the
county though there are many
others that will be larger when they'
come into full bearing. This orchard
was set out by M. M. Coleman, Sr.,
who took an active lead in starting
new crops for this county during his
active farming life before his eyes
became weak.

Liquor Taste Passing
With This Generation,
Scientist Declares
NEW YORK, Nov. 29—With con
| tinuance of prohibition in the United
States, the next generation, brought
up in an invironment of interdiction
of alcoholic beverages Wo th for their
parents and themselves, will have
no taste for such beverages, Dr. Paul
Kammerer, Viennese chemist, who
claims to have proof that acquired
characteristics can be inherited, de
clared on his arrival on the Resolute.
Prohibition, he said, would provide
an excellent opportunity for proof
on a large scale that characteristics
acquired during the lifetimes of par
ants can be and are transmitted to
children, in whom the acquired char
acteristics, he asserted, would be
Instinctive.
“I believe,” Dr. Kammerer declar
ed, “that with continuance of the
law in the United States, the next
generation will be without any desire
I for the alcoholic beverages which
the present generation is forced to
dispense with.”
Dr. Kammerer said he would de
scribe to scientists here how he had
' grown efficient eyes in once blind
newts and how he affected the col
orations of salamanders by keeping
their parents under special environ
mental color conditions.
H e said he also would explain the
■ rejuvenation methods of Dr. Eugen
I Steinach, of Vienna, with whom he
' collaborated.

Candidacy of Ford
In Michigan Boomed
By Democratic Leader
DETROIT. Mich., Nov. 29.—Ed
ward Frensdorf, of Hudson, promi
neist in Michigan Democratic politi
cal circles, admitted today he was
behind a movement to have the
name of Henry Ford placed on the
Democratic presidential preference
ballot in 1924.
Mr. Frensdorf declared that peti
tions have been drawn up and that
the.v would be circulated at once.
“I am in favor of Mr. Ford and
believe the majority' of Michigan
Democrats want to vote for him,”
he said.
William A. Comstock, Democratic
state chairman, expressed some sur
prise over the possibility of Ford
being made a Democratic candidate.
“When Frensdorf mentioned the
Ford possibility to me a month ago
I thought he was joking,” declared
Comstock. “Perhaps he is in ear
nest.”

Here is what the collection includes:
Six Baby Apple Trees
Healthy, vigorous little “baby trees” that grow rapidly
into large, heavy-cropping trees. They are produced by
grafting a branch from a fruit tree to a healthy one-yeai
root, and tying the union with waxed twine. Though
less than a foot in length, they take root shortly after being
planted and make wonderfully rapid growth when given the
care they deserve. We will send: Two Genuine Delicious—
the handsomest Apple grown and the best. Two Jonathans
a favorite wherever apples can be grown and of deligntiui
flavor. Two Wealthys—popular and profitable; a splendid
keeper.
Two Kieffer Pear Trees
Plants come in same shape as Apple trees. This old, de
pendable variety is a favorite for every purpose, wherever
pears are grown. Os incompa flavor when fully ripe.
Four Pedigreed Grape Vines
Selected year-old Concord vines from the famous South
ern Michigan grape belt, where tbe variety has been grown
and perfected for the last half century, and where the vines
have been bred up to an average yield of a bushel of the
finest table grapes to every vine. The Concord is hardy and
w’ll thrive in locations where many other varieties cannot be
grown The vines we will send you are selected mailing
size stock; with plenty of roots to start off with vigorous
growth. They fruit the third year and reach full size in
five after which, with proper care, you can depend upon
your bushel of choicest grapes from every vine, and you can
make cuttings which will give you a vineyard of any size
you desire.
Eight Vigorous Lucretia Dewberry Vines
As the Dewberry produces a good crop the next summer
after being planted, they are ideal to plant with grapes.
While waiting for your grapes to come into bearing, the
dewberry vines will furnish Immense clusters of shining
black, melting, juicy berries. As a .source of delicious fruit
juice the Dewberry is giving the Concord grape a close race,
as the Dewberry juice Is as good as grape juice, and the
crop is cheaper to grow. Eight of our vines in your garden
will give you a good annual supply of this splendid berry,
and you will have every year from twenty to fifty new plants
to re-set or to sell to your neighbors.
