THIRD PRESIDENTIAL I
■ QNHMTE IN STATE
PRIMARY ASSURED
S New Interest was added to the
presidential campaign in Georgia
Saturday when avowed followers of
the late Thomas E. Watson inform
ed the Democratic state executive
committee that they will support
neither William G. McAdoo nor Sen
s, ator Oscar Underwood, but will place
a third candidate in the field.
Although no announcement to
that effect has been made, it is
reported that the third entry prob
ably will be Senator James Reed, of
Missouri. The primary was set for
n March 19, with a state convention
in Atlanta April 23.
There was a sharp division in the
ranks of the state committee over
the date for holding the statewide
k/" presidential preference primary, aft-
F" er charges were made that the Me-
Adoo supporters were endeavoring
to rush the primary through before
other candidates have a chance to
make a campaign.
*• Motions to set the primary for
April 23 and April 30 were defeatel
by votes of 21 to 19 and 23 to 20.
it being necessary on the first ballot
• for Assistant Secretary Gardner to
cast his vote in order to show a
quorum voting.
* Primary Rules Adopted
The resolution fixing the date of
* the primary and convention, provid
ed that a committee of seven be
appointed to arrange details; that
v , the county executive committees
*. should meet on the day following the
1 primary and count the vote; that the
state executive committee should as
semble in Atlanta April 12 to de
ll Clare the result in each county and
• the state; that the candidate receiv
ing the plurality vote in each coun-
" ty name delegates to the state con
vention in Atlanta April 23; and that
s - the candidate receiving the largest
county unit vote name the delegates
to the national convention in New
York June 24, each county being
allowed two delegates for each rep
resentative in the legislature.
The entrance fee was fixed at SSOO
and the entries will close March 4.
James A. Hollomon. of Atlanta;
James H. Boykin, of Lincolnton, and
< J. B. Daniel, of LaGrange, led the
fight for a later primary date, sug
gesting April 23 or 30. Mr. Hollo
mon declared that the early primary
was a McAdoo movement, "spon
sored in every state to gag the dele
gations before they find out that
McAdoo ‘can’t make the grade’ in
the national convention. (
‘‘There is not the slightest chance ;
for either McAdoo or Underwood to
b receive the nomination, and they
both know it," Mr., Hollomon de
clared. "Sam Ralston, of Indiana, is
the man the national convention will
finally decide upon as the party
nominee.
Third Candidate Seen
Chairman Maddox asserted that he
did not know the presidential pref
erences or the other plans of the
subcommitteemen when they were
appointed, and had nothing to do
with the selection of March 19 as
the county primary date in his own
county. ,
, J. B. Daniel, of LaGrange, repre- !
eentative of Troup county in the leg
islature, declared that the three ele
ments that have always existed in
Georgia politics are still “on the
*■ job.”
“Although our peerless leader has
passed on, the third element is not
going to stand for either McAdoo or
Underwood as the choice of Georgia
Democrats, but we will put a man
in the field at the proper time,” Mr.
Daniel said.
W. W. Dykes, of Americus, chalr
( man of the subcommittee that for
mulated the resolution setting March
19 as the primary date, declared that
the charge of gag rule was “abso
lutely false.”
“The charge that the subcommit
tee was a McAdoo committee is ab-
I solutely untrue,” Mr. Dykes said. “I
am for Underwood myself. Fix an
other date if you want to, but cut
out the disgusting and false charges
that somebody is trying to invoke
gag rule or choke something down
somebody’s throat. That's the cheap
est sort of political buncombe.”
Mr. Hollomon replied that he did
i not mean to reflects upon the sub
committee, but meeant that a de
cision of the general committee to
hold a. primary on March 19 would
be gag rule upon the voters of Geor
gia.
The committee organized with 42
present and adopted rules that a
quorum should consist of 40 and no
proxies would be allowed to vote,
s. Chairman Maddox announced the
purpose of the call and Fermor Bar
rett, of Toccoa, immediately moved
that a presidential preference pri
mary be held on March 19.
W. W. Dykes, of Americus, offered
» substitute providing that a pres
idential primary be held, but that
a committee consisting of one mem
«■ her from each congressional district
be appointed to retire immediately
and select a date for the primary
and fix the rules.
Judge B. F. Walker, of Gibson,
offered a resolution asking counties
to hold their primaries on the same
date as the state primary, but this
resolution was ruled out of order at
the time.
J. A. Holleman, of Atlanta, de-
• *- dared that he was In favor of a pri
mary if it could be held, but felt

that some arrangement ought to be
made about paying expenses, which
would amount to $35,000, before the
call was issued.
H. H. Elders, of Reidsville, spoke
in favor of the Dykes substitute, de
claring that the date proposed by Mr.
Barrett was too early as many of the
people of Georgia were not in fa
vor of either Mr. McAdoo or Mr.
Und - • ;d, whose names are the
only ones thus far proposed. He
stated that the people should be
given time to offer other names and
guaranteed that the counties in his
section would hold the presidential
p.iiriary, although more than half of
them have already held county pri
maries.
After considerable more discus
sion, the substitute of Mr. Dykes
was adopted by a vote of 28 to 8,
and the following committee was
appointed to fix the date and rules
for a primary: W. W. Dykes, of
Americus, chairman; H. H. Elders,
Reidsville; D. H. Redfern, Albany;
J. B. Daniel, LaGrange; Mrs. Edgar

A resolution by Mr. Hollomon to
divide the national delegation equal
ly between women and men was de
feated, on the grounds that the com
mittee did not have the authority to
instruct the convention.
A resolution was passed, urging
county executive committees to set
county primaries for March 19, in
order that the expense of the presi
dential primary might be reduced
as much as possible.
Mrs. Frank P. Mclntyre, of Sa

mlttewoman from 'Georgia, and a

On BOARD THE U. S. S. SEN
ECA, OFF THE ATLANTIC
COAST, Jan. 19.—The Seneca is
steaming along the coast line just
inside the 12-mile limit, checking up :
the activities of the rum fleet.
< But it is not only with the. smug- [
gling of contraband liquor that she
concerns herself, although that, at
present, is the main thing; but it is
with the constantly growing menace
against the custom laws of the Unit
ed States as applied to other forbid
den articles.
For several generations, smug
gling as a. business had practically i
ceased. But with the advent of pro- j
; hibition there came into being or- ,
ganizations that took advantage of j
the situation to obtain for them- ■
selves enormous profits.
So comparatively easy was the i
job that these same oranizations
have now turned their eyes and
their talents to other means of prof
it in evading the law; such as smug
gling narcotics, diamonds, etc., and
the landing of undesirable aliens.
Reasons for Cinch
The two outstanding reasons for
the ease with which smuggling has '
been revived, say men in the service
who know, are:
First. Lack of proper equipment
for the coast guard service, which
forms the first line of defense
against smuggling.
Second. Lack of proper legal au
thorizations.
The New York district comprises
roughly 240 miles of coast line from
Montauk Point, Long Island, to Fen
: wick Island, off the coast of Dela-
I ware, and extends seaward in a
i southeasterly direction about 360
j miles.
To patrol this district the coast
guard service has only six sea-going
ships, the fastest of which, the
Gresham, is capable of 15 knots an
hour; while the slowest, the Man
hattan, can do only 10.
The smugglers as a rule, use fast
motorboats, most of which will
make, better than 16 knots an hour.
With the vanishing of the proses- I
sional smuggler, the service devoted
most of its energies to the aiding of ;
vessels in distress; to the destruction
of derelicts and other menaces to I
navigation; to the patroling of the ;
sea lanes to warn shipping of ice- ;
berg dangers; and to aiding the cus-i
tom officers in the boarding of in
coming vessels at New York.
This developed a type of ship
called “long-legged.” It was suit-
I able for the long cruises made neces
; sa ry by the many dufies which took
the vessels of the coast guard far
i out to sea. But to enable them to
: carry stiff.cient supplies for long
< trips, speed could not be taken into
I consideration. And the sugglers
got an edge.
Legal Loopholes
And they got another in the legal
aspect of the situation. For, law- ‘
yers say, several loopholes ex' .
through which the smugglers are '
able to escape the clutches of the '
authorities.
The law of the land provides that ;
1 the I nited States has the right to
i board and examine any American •
! vessel in any water for the purpose
i of enforcing the laws of the United
1 States.
• But—congress has never delegated
i that right to any officer of the gov
: ernment; and it is behind the fail
| ure to confer that right on Its law i
I enforcement officers that many a
| guilty smuggler captured on the
high seas, has gone free.
Another legal difficulty arises
from the fact that no uniform !n
--, ternretation of the dry law has been
i made.
’ It used to be that when one court
! decided a point in law, that ruling i
; was established as a precedent and '
j accepted in all other courts in the
' country,
I , But tejay. |n dealing with liquoj
i ’ ;,w ' v n ’~*:ons. e ach court seems to
i have become a law unto itself.
Jury and Witness
Tampering Is Charged
In Taylor County Trial
COLUMBUS. Ga., Jan. 20.—-After
arguments of the motion for a new
trial in the case of Willie Jones and
Gervis Bloodworth, Taylor coumy
youths under sentence to hang for
the murder of H. F. Underwood, near
Reynolds, on December 3, last, had
proceeded for more than two hours
here Saturday before Judge
George P. Munro, they were given
something of a sensational turn by
the introduction of three unsupported
affidavits, by Homer Beeland, of
Reynolds, leading counsel for the de
fendants. Two of the affidavits in
tended to show tampering with the
jury and one witness.
The hearing was continued until
February 1.
In one of the’ affidavits over the
signature of Jack Bloodworth, an
uncle of Gervis Bloodworth, it is al
leged that be sa- Jack Hobbs, a
brother-in-law o tlm deceased, hand
one of the jurors a note as the
twelve' men were filing out of the
courtroom just after the trial had
been finished er l the case turned
over to them.
, In another of the affidavits over
the signature of J. M. Jones, father
of Willie Jones, it was alleged that
at 0.. - time during the progress of
the trial he saw sixteen men, in
cluding the twelve jurors and SV. A.
Anglin, bailiff, huddled together in
close conversal io.i near the court
house during an intermission' pe
riod.
In an affidavit John Kirksey
claimed to have heard Jack Hobbs,
brother-in-law of the deceased, make
the statement in the witness room
“that if money would hang the de
fendants they would sure get hung,”
or woi’ms to that effect.
Old Thimble Reunites
Mother,92, and Son, 72,
At New York City Jail
NEW YORK, Jan. 19.—A silver
thimble, carried throu’gh the Revolu
i tionary, Civil and Indian wars by
three members of an old family of
I New Jersey, was exhibited Friday in
Raymond street jail by 72-year-old
George Doty to prove to 92-year-old
Margaret Lateer that he was her
long lost son.
The first soldier Doty, a member
of Marion's men, was given a thim
ble for his kit when he left his cabin
home in the Jersey wilds. He used
I it in patching his uniform and when
Ihe died he gave it to a son. That
, son's wife used it in sewing for sol
i diers in 1812 and it was passed on
! io her son, who carried it through
' the Civil war.
j It fell into the hands of George
when he went west of the Missis
sippi for the Indian wars. Twenty
five years ago he left his home in
Branchville, N. J., for a trip to
Brooklyn. His father died and. his
mother married again and George’s
whereabouts wYis unknown to her
until she read • last week that a
George Doty had been arrested for
: stealing a phonograph.
Bryan Proposal Made
For South’s Prestige,
Commoner Declares
RALEIGH. N. C., Jan. 19.—Belief
that the south should be recognized
caused William Jennings Bryan to
speak in favor of Dr. A. A. Mur
phree, president of the University’
of Florida, for. the Democratic nom
ination for president, according to
a story which appears in the News
and Observer here today. Mr. Bryan
spoke last night at Henerson, N. C.
“There are many southern Demo
crats worthy of the nomination,” as
serted the commoner in reply to a
question, “but being now a Flor
idian, I am going to nominate a
man from my own state.”
“Do you think he can be nomi
nated?” he was asked.
“I am too old a politician to
■ make predictions this far ahead,”
j was the reply.
I Mr. Bryan said the Baltimore con
vention had forever settled the
1 question of any objection to Dr.
; Murphree on the grounds that he
was a college president.
"I want to see the ban removed
from southern statesmen." he addeJ.

NEW YORK MAKING
PRELIMINARY MS
FOB BIG MENTION
NEAT YORK, Jan. 19.—Declaring
they had laid the foundation for the
most Successful Democratic na.tional
converition in history, party leaders
today turned over to the local citi
zens’ non-partisan committee the
job of completing preliminary ar
rangements for the big June ses
sion.
“It’s going to be the biggest at
traction we ever staged; the biggest
show ever pulled in Madison
Square Garden,” said Cordell Hull,
chairman of the Democratic national
committee.
Mr. Hull will depart tomorrow,
after two days spent with the party’s
subcommittee in locating headquar
ters, negotiating accommodations
for delegates, inspecting Madison
Square Garden, budgeting finances,
and linking the national organiza
tion with the local citizens’ group
of convention sponsors.
Norman E. Mack, chairman of the
subcommittee, will remain here w’ith
George F. Mara, assistant to Mr.
Hull, who next Wednesday will
open offices adjoining Tex Rickards,
in the famous garden tower where
Sanford White wa s slain by Harry
K. Thaw in 1906.
Although the WAldorf-Astoria has .
been chosen for national committee
headquarters, the national Demo
cratic club in this city will be used
for the purpose during the months
Intervening until June. This, it was
decided today, would materially lower
the preliminary convention expense
and enable the national committee
to spend just that much more on the
delegates when they arrive.
Plans Perfected
With $250,000 already pledged to
ward the expense of the convention
and the expenditure of $250,000 more
in sight, New York backers of the
session, Republican and Democratic,
today oiled up the vast machinery
assembled for the undertaking.
Acting' Mayor Murray Hulbert and
William T. Collins, president of the
board of aidermen, presented
salves before the joint national and
local committees to accept honorary
chairmanships of the reception com
mittee. They indicated that the ac
ceptance of Mayor Hylan, who has
been ill, also would be forthcoming.
Saying 1 he wanted the police de
partment to “outdo even the marvel
ous showing made at San Francisco
in 1920,” Mr. Hulbert assured the
committeemeQ, “we want our force
of 15,000 men to be more than po
lice protection for your delegates and
convention visitors; we want them
to be walking bureaus of informa
tion.”
Warning Is Issued
Stanley J. Quinn, directing vice
chairman of the local executive com
mittee, issued a warning which he
expected would effectually frighten
any would-be speculators in conven
tion seat tickets.
Hearing that scalpers already were
offering S2OO each for 6,000 tickets
the local group expected to distribute
to convention fund contributors on
the basis of one ticket for each SIOO
given, Mr. Quinn said:
“We want these tickets to go to
persons who alread.v have under
taken the bulk of the financial bur
den. We have a vigilance commit
tee to investigate the source of all
donations. We don’t want ticket
scalpers’ money. If we can’t spot
the speculators, Tex Rickard, who
ought to know them, will help us.”
Rickard himself has declined to
have anything to do with tickets, ex
cept those to which he will be en
titled as a backer of the convention
to the extent of $85,000, said Quinn.
Representatives of telegraph com
panies, news services and individual
newspapers circulated through Mad
ison Square Garden all day drawing
plans for the installation of press ac
commodations in the subterranean
passages which, before the conven
tion, will be occupied by the men
agerie of the annual circus and later
by the huge garden’s swimming pool.

age they daily overcome or prevent the
distresses due to indigestion. They sweet
en the stomach by giving It the alkaline
effect as in health, they absorb the
gases, they lift off the feeling of heavi
ness, they stop sour risings or heart
burn, they actually assist in the digestion
of food, and from all points of view are
one of the most invaluable aids to health
to be found. So, no matter what you
eat. if your stomach rebels, always re
member that a 60-cent box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will keep your stom
ach sweet and thus aid to prevent much
ot the distress that comes late in life.

Students’ Rebellion
Against Albion College
Head to Be Aired
ALBION, Mich., Jan. 20.—Until
Dr. John W. Laird, 39 years old pres
ident ot Albion college, appears be
fore the board of trustees in Detroit
Monday, the result of the student
rebellion against his regime here re
mains uncertain. Friends of Dr.
Laird, who formerly held pastorates
in New York, New Haven, Conn.,
and Baltimore, explained his
continued absence from his home
and office by statements that he is
filling a speaking engagement, but
they could not say where.
Bishop Theodore S. Henderson, of
the Michigan area, Methodist Episco
pal church and W. W. Tefft, presi
dent of the board of trustees of the
college, are reported en route from
New York to Detroit. Both are ex-’
pected to attend Monday’s meeting
at which student charges of incom
petence made against Dr. Laird are
to be heard. At the same time a re
port of a committee of two board
members who for several davs have
been investigating the college situ
ation wil Ibe read.
Some members of the board of
trustees and of the faculty expressed
the opinion that Dr. Laird would
present his resignation Monday.
