THE MORNING OITEGOXIAN, SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1920 - MID mm s GIVES GLASS LEAD Senator's Chance for Nomi nation Held Good. BOOM WELL UNDER WAY Hx-Secretry's Refusal to Enter Race Proves Keen Disappoint ment to His Friends. WASHINGTON, Jure 18. (By the Associated Press.) The refusal of "William G. McAdoo to allow his name to be presented to the democratic national convention apparently did not come as a very great surprise in Inner administration circles. To other democratic leaders in Washington, however. It seemed to be wholly un expected and to his friends it came as a keen disappointment. Some party leaders tonight said Mr. McAdoo's self-elimination left the situation more or less "in flux." They regarded the former secretary of the treasury as one of the foremost can didates. While Mr. McAdoo had in sisted from the first that he was not a. candidate and that the delegates should go to San Francisco unln etructcd, it is known that a number of them were favorable to his candidacy. In fact, the McAdoo boom had reached such proportions that the senate committee which investigated pre-conventin campaign expenditures made repeated efforts to discover whether there was a national organi zation behind it. B. M. Baruch of New York and a number of others were questioned, but they insisted that there was no organization and that no funds on behalf of Mr. McAdoo had been spent. Glau Boom 1m Started. Dr. Burris Jenkins of Kansas City, Mo., had planned to place Mr. Mc Adoo's name before the convention. He was invited to do so at a meeting of McAdoo supporters here last month which was attended by Jouett Shou.se assistant secretary of the treasury; D. C. Roper, former commissioner of in ternal revenue; Frank R. Wilson, for mer director of liberty loan publicity and others. Coincident with Mr. McAdoo's an nouncement that he would not permit his name to go before the convention Mr. Shou.se issired a statement saying that an "active fight" would be waged for the nomination of Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, who has been looked upon as the certain choice to head the resolutions committee at San Fran cisco. Mr. Shouse declared that the move ment for the nomination of Senator Glass "has already reached formidable proportions' and that "a number o the most loyal McAdoo men" had de clared that they "would exert them selves to the limit on behalf of Sena tor Glass." will have with a committee appointed at Chicago and composed of Chairman Hays, National Committeeman A. a. Hert, Kentucky; Jacob L.- Hamon, Oklahoma; C. D. Hilles, New York; Ralph E. Williams, Oregon, and for mer Senator John W. Weeks of Mas sachusetts. Herbet Hoover, whose name was voted on to the last at the republi can convention, had breakfaBt today with Senator Harding at the senator's invitation. George Clark of Canton, O., chair man of the Ohio state republican ad visory committee, called on Senator Harding today to lay before him plans for the Ohio campaign. Republi cans in that state, he declared, were ready to go ahead as -soon as the republican nominee had Indorsed the plans. Senator Harding, in his daily talk with newspaper men. referred briefly to his conference with Mr. Hoover. "We discussed the political situa tion extensively and I think with a great degree of satisfaction," he said. Senator Harding has begun the pre liminary work on his speech of ac ceptance. Among those who saw the senator today were Senator McNary, republican of Oregon, who was asked for information regarding reclama tion and irrigation subjects. STOCK LX BREWERY CHARGED Ownership of Block by Harding Alleged by Hlnsuaw. CHICAGO, June 18. Senator War ren G. Harding, republican presiden tial nominee, formerly owned stock in a brewery, according to a state ment issued by Virgin Hinshaw at prohibition national headquarters here today. According to Hinshaw, Harding ad mitted at a dinner given by Thomas B. Felder at the New Willard hotel in Washington two years and a half ago "that he had owned brewery stock in Ohio." The dinner, Hinshaw said, wa given in honor of Nat Harris, -the dry" governor of Georgia. The statement adds that Hardin later voted for the federal prohlbl tion amendment and voted for the Volstead act over the president' veto. "It was difficult to tell from Mr. Harding's speeches just where he stood or in which direction his sym pathiea lay," Hinshaw added. m OF CONVENTION AT Si FRANCISCO irst Democrats From East Arrive in Special Train. .

Mr. Glass was one of the admin istration leaders in the house of rep resentatives until he resigned to be come secretary of the treasury, when Mr. McAdoo retired. While in the the house he fathered the federal re serve and farm loan acts and since his apponitment to the senate by Governor Martin of Virginia, ho has supported the president in the treaty fight.

Definite action on a number of sub jects is expected to be taken Monday at a conference which the nominee Mohammedan Uprising Against British Rule Would Have Aid of Bolshevik Forces WASHINGTON, June 18. (By the Associated Press.) Details of the much-heralded uprisings in the Mo hammedan world against British rule and in favor of the Turkish national ities and bolsheviki were received yesterday in official advices. The reports confirm advices as to Moscow and "Munich conferences re ceived some time ago by the state de partmenti Enver Pasha, Djemal Pasha and Talaat Pasha, Turkish na tionalist leaders, were reported to have conferred with spartacists and bolsheviki at Munich, while represen tatives from India, Egypt. Afghanis tan, Persia, Azerbaijan and Georgia met Turkish nationalists and Lenine, the bolshevik leader, at Moscow. Plans for uprisings in the Mohammedan world coincident with a bolshevik thrust at Persia and India are said to have been laid at these meetings. A force of 150,000 troops commanded by General Kuropatkin was promised the Mohammedan world by Lenine at Moscow, it has been reported. Following the two conferences, training school was established at Moscow for representatives of the Turkish nationalists, according to the official dispatches received today. From this school, after a rigorous course of instruction in the plans and objects of the conspiracy, groups of from 10 to 20 and 60 of the "Young Turks, it is said, were sent to prop aganda headojarters in Persia, Af ghanistan, India, Egypt, Georgia Azerbaijan and Bulgaria to promote the intrigue and make ready for the march southeastward of the bolshevik army through Persia to India and southwestward toward Egypt.

Preston and William Donaldson, superintendents of the senate and house press gal leries, respectively, and SO working newspaper men. The first formal meeting of the sub-committee on arrangements was held today. Homer S. Cummings, chairman of the democratic national committee, presiding. After the meeting of the sub committee of arrangements the fol lowing appointments were announced subject to the approval of the na tional committee, which is to meet on June 25: Cummlnga Temporary Chairman Temporary chairman.

The committee announced tnere were still a number of assistant sec retaries and assistant reading clerks to be named and that these would likely be women. Announcement by W illiam G. .Mc Adoo that he could not permit his name to be put before the demo cratic convention divided interest here with the arrival of leaders of the Governor Cox faction and the suffrage declaration of Mrs. Abbey Scott Baker, political chairman of the national woman's party. Ratification to Be Asked. 'Our party will demand that the democrats give us the 36th state," Mrs. Baker said. "In other words, that they use all their influence to add the one ratification by a state legislature of the national suffrage amendment to the constitution neces sary to make suffrage a national law. We have 35 states already. A resolution in the platform will help, but instruction by the powers that be in the democratic party to those lower down is what will count most of all." Mrs. Baker, who is one of the wom en who directed the picketing of the White House, charged the republican convention with having dolged the suffrage issue. In Vermont and Con necticut there were republican ma jorities in the legislatures, which would ratify the amendment on in structions from the party leaders, she said. McAdoo's Action Feared. Mrs. Antoinette Funk of Washing ton, D. C, one of the personal friends of McAdoo, who have been working in his behalf, said that his announce ment was something that had been feared for a long time. We who are friends of Mr. McAdoo and most anxious to bring about his nomination have known for months that he would be apt to make a state ment of this nature," she said. As a matter of fact, he prepared a similar statement before this and his friends induced him to hold It up. "He has never given anyone per mission to place him in nomination and. although some of us have taken steps to that end, it has been with the understanding it would be necessary to get his accepts ncVe. "However, I have heard him say many times that if the people through their delegates carled upon him to take the nomination it would be his patriotic duty to accept." McAdoo Backers Alter Plans. Announcement that Bernard Baruch and Thomas L. Chadbourne, who were to maintain headquarters here to pro mote the candidacy of William G. Mc Adoo, had cancelled their hotel reser vations and would not come to the convention, was made by party lead ers. Daniel C. Ucper, former com missioner of internal revenue, was said to be on his way to San Fran cisco. E. H. Moore, national committee man from Ohio and manager of the campaign for Governor James M. Cox of that state, arrived today with Nor man E. Mack, national committeeman from New York. ''Announcement of Wayne B. Wheel er, general counsel of the Anti-Saloon league, that the prohibition forces are going to ask the convention to present a solid front against Governor Cox does not frighten us," Moore said. "Wheeler, who is a republican, tried to beat Governor Cox in 1314 and failed to do so. Delegation Yet Undecided. "Up to the time I left the east the New York delegation had not decided whom it was going to support, but The Joy Spot of Next Week Will Be YE OREGON GRILL Broadway at Stark Where the discriminating public which enjoys Good Meals Good Service . Good Music and Good Dancing will gather. . One of the outstanding incidents of the Republican Convention at Chicago was Hiram Johnson's victory in forcing the adoption of the League of Nations plank in the platform. According to the N. Y. Times, "the net result is that the Republican party has met the. issue squarely and has made the League of Nations a paramount issue of the Presidential campaign. It is a clean-cut fight from now on between President Wilson's principles of the settlement of National disputes through a society of nations and the principle accepted by the Republican convention that the United States should hold itself aloof from participation in the affairs of the world." For all the important news, with special attention given to reporting the Republican Con vention, you should read this week's LITERARY DIGEST, dated June 19th. Articles of particular interest in this number are:- We suggest you make your table reservations early. A "Strictly Business" Peace With Russia Irritation in France Over Britain's Negotiations to Resume Trade With Soviet Russia we hope to swing it over to Governor Cox." The New York delegation favors modification of the Volstead act so that each state may decide whether it wants wines and beer. Mack said. "The poor as well as the rich are entitled to their beer and wine," he I said. "They should be permitted to settle the question for themselves." Some sort of a plank on the Irish question also was favored by the delegation, he said. LABOR PARTY DISTINCT IDENTITY NOT TO BE LOST IX THIRD PARTY MOVE. Convention In Chicago July 10 Is I Expected to Be Attended by About 4000 Delegates. NEW YOKK, June 18. The Amer ican labor party, it was announced fro mheadquarters In this city last night, will remain a distinct lal or party and will not sacrifice its lden- ity in a third party movement. ' The convention to be held in Chi cago on July 10, it was stated, will be attended by almost 4000 delegates representing more than 2,000,000 or irani zed workers. "We are rotated in the trade union movement, which is grow'ng in might throughout the world," said William Kohn, Greater New York chairman. "and will be, perhaps, the greatest economic and political influence of the future. We shall hold fast to our mission, which is to serve as the po lltlcal instrument of the martual workers and the awakened brain workers." Kohn explained this attitude did not mean the party would not work with "political groups which have common srround with us." It is likely. he said, that liberal, labor and farmer groups may nominate tne same can didate. DesDite the reported hostility oi Samuel Gompers, Kohn said, the labor party would have the support of the state federation of labor in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Michigan In the forthcoming; election.
