LEADERS CERTAIN
THAT COX WILL
111 PRESIDE
By David Lawrence
Copyright 1&0.) "
' Columbus, Ohio. July 21. This is
a miniature convention ' nnd - 'not
merely a meeting of the Demecratlo
national .committee, for there are
105 member of the commit! in
stead of S3, the women holding-, equal
rank as the representatives of .their
respective states, and the atmos
phere Is one not unlike a national
convention. .
In the first place there has been a
contest over the selection of a national
chairman -which has tended to bring to
the surface some of the argument for
and against the Wilson regime which
circulated on. the convention floor and In
the lobbies in San Francisco, and there
is moreover, a militancy and a deter
mined air which may surprise Repub
licans when they encounter It, for un
questionably the majority of the Demo
cratic leaders are honestly convinced
that they are going to win with Cox.
LEADERS ARE CONFIDENT
The Democratic nominee gave a splen
did and opportune exhibition of loyalty
to political friends when he issued a
statement saying his personat choice
. for national chairman was Edward
Moore of Youngstown, Ohio, Vho man
aged the pre-conventlon campaign for
the winner at San Francisco. But he
did not issue that statement until after
conferring with Homer Cummings, na
tions! chairman, and the inference is
that Cummings explained that he, too,
- was not seeMng reelection as chair
man. Indeed, Moore earlier In the day had
been quoted by intimate friends as( de
clining the position. So Governor Cox
will have really cleared his first hurdle
by avoiding the Impression of ingrati-
tude to his friend Kd Moore.
Admittedly the leaders here ' think
their chances have Improved In the last
three months from an almost hopeless
outlook to a good chance. The nomina
tion of Harding at Chicago and Cox at
San Francisco are the sole reasons for
the change from despair to hopefulness.
FIND MICH MATERIAL
The Democratic leaders say the coun
try is for a change' from the Wilson ad
ministration and the Democrats are
satisfying the country by proposing a
maT who would give the country a new
deal. But mostly the Democrats . who
are going out to wage the campaign in
48 states point to the Republican nomi
nee as one of their chief assets. It was
somewhat amusing to see the commit
teemen from far away states looking up
Harding', record. This visit to Ohio
gave therrt a chance to verify rumors
which they" had heard concerning Sena
for Harding's stand on public institu
tions., - -. J .,, I ' "
For instance. Sam Amfdon, national
committeeman from Kansas, a state
which has had a grievance against the
Wilson administration for fixing the
price of wheat and not fixing the price
of cotton, -discovered amid great glee
that Warren Harding had made a speech
in the senate, when he voted for the
"food control act,, declaring in effect
that a dollar was enough for a bushel
of wheat.
SENATE RECORD POOH
This speech was printed and sent
broadcast by Republican -opponents of
Senator Harding in the presidential
primary campaign this year in which
Harding ran behind Wood;, Lowden and
Johnson. i -
The Democrats collected ammunition
eagerly. Another committeeman discov
ered that there had been a divorce in
the Harding family, which would offset
In his judgment any hesitancy on the
part of women voters to cast their bal
lots for Governor Cox. whose divorce
suit hsd been discussed from political
, viewpoints at San Francisco and had
been mentioned as a possible weapon by
the Republican party workers in the
precincts where word of mouth argu
ment Is supreme. i
Another committeeman had a copy of
Senator Harding's record i in the senate
which tended to show that the Ohio
senator was' absent a good deal. Of
course much of the value of this argu
ment ' may be questioned, for a great
many people who don't think the talk
feats are worth attending anyway may
argue that the ' Ohio senator showed
rare judgment by staying away.
REPUBLICANS TO GATHER
Before the week Is over the Repub
lican executive committee and the Re
publican hosts will come here en route
to Marion, 30 miles away, where the
notification of Senator Harding will be
held on Thursday. The Republicans will
dig into Governor CdVs record and
make use of their presence in Ohio to
fllow out the rear facta about the gov
ernor's attitude on the liquor question,
which has been such a vital factor in
Democratic strength in ! the populous
Eastern states. Already one of the
senator's suggestions is that the gov
ernor shifted considerably on the liquor
issue and, of. course, if i his record Is
vulnerable, the county will hear about
it through the Republican ammunition
gatherers.
Ohio Is certainty the political center
of the country full of politicians, com
mitteemen and committee women, office
seekers, would-be seekers, correspondents
and the usual caravan which follows in
the wake of presidential nominees.
Pennsylvania Meeting
Former Pennsylvanlans will gather at
the Oaks park for a basket picnic Friday
. afternoon and evening. The picnickers
have been requested by those in 'charge
to bring more than enough lunch for
themselves to assure a full supply of
good things to eat. Coffee and cream
will be furnishd.

New York. July 21. After all. the
public and private criticism of Cap
tain Barton must have brought , on
some heart-to-heart talks In Sir Lip
ton's cabinet. The Shamrock Tues
day "did not look like the same boat
at all. It was a shamrock from
the first gun to the last. - She led
over the starting- line, she turned
both outer marks and crossed the
finishing- line first; beat the Reso
lute in actual sailing on every leg,
and her three leg gains added to
gether were enough to offset all time
allowances by more than two min
utes not much, but sufficient
Oa the previous days the Resolute
had been having a fine time playing tag
with the Shamrock around the starting
line. Tuesday the Shamrock acted as
if she were going to have something to
say about the start, and not alone at
the start, but all along the road.
She crossed the line first, and that
lead worked to her advantage later when
the wind hauled, as it did half a dozen
times before the race "was over.
It looked, just after the yachts crossed
the Starting line, as If the British crew
was still -suffering from the sluggish
ness of last week. They broke out a big
jib topsail and Instead of falling fluff ily
down to the forward rail, it fell foul of
the jib stay and there hung half way
down for five minutes before they even
seemed to be getting ready to overhaul
It
However, they cleared It and went on
their way southeasterly to sea. Ten
miles they were to go on that first leg.
BESOLTTE 8TABT8 WILL ,
The Resolute had started nearly a
mile a minute after the Shamrock and
most of us who had been watching the
series thought it would be the usual
game, the Resolute eating Into the Sham-
reck s wind, anv by au.d oy. when the
time came k right, going on about her
business of defending the cup right out
in front of the green one. And for a
while U did look that way. But changes
of wind came, changes of wind before
tne Kesoiute couia get to it, ana au
the changes came the Shamrock's way.
In their first race it was remarkable
how the wind broke in our favor. There
Is stjll no doubt in the minds of most
of us that our boat can beat the chal
lenger decisively going to windward irt
light air, bUt she did not do it. The per
plexing winds I It was bewildering, too,
and almost discouraging to watch the
wind play with the eus'a fate on that
first leg and again on the second leg.
On the third, the run home, favors were
even.
BET OJT EXCEEDING TIMS
' But to get back to that first leg. , The
Shamrock would be going along finei but
look toward the Resolute and there she
would be, with her canvas doing a sort
of a shimmy, but getting hernowhere.
There were times, five, ten minutes at a i
time, when both boats would be hung up,
the ; air flapping them in and out. and
with it a sea of glass and that sort, of
nase whieh never comes except on a
warm and lifeless day at sea.
' We took to betting then as to whether
they would fialsh within the time limit.
Towards the end of the race Resolute
boosters had this for their only hope
that possibility of the time limit being,
exceeded. With but two miles of the
second leg left, and 10 miles after that
to the end of the race ts go. and about
two hours to do It in. it was not a
bad bet at all that they would not make
it which was discouraging to the Sham
rock people, who were seeing a victory
fade away.
f HOWS CLEAIT REELS J '
But It waa along there that a fine
little breese came up front the south.
The Shamrock, of course, had the bene-
fitof it first and be -sure she made the;
moat ai ii. one wa iiymg ner inree
forward headsalls all the time, and with
them and her great mainsail, not to
speak of that ungodly topsail of hers, she
tethered in the wind and away she went.
It was the finest hit of sailing we
have yet seen in the series. She rolled
down, showing her under body to below
the' white wreak she carries there, and
shoving those shoulders of hers through
all white water. When she gets a breese
of wind anywhere on her beam she does
make a fuss. ? .
The Resolute caught It too. but for
10 minutes or so she had to look on
and watch her rival run away before
aha took it But when she got it she
came belting too, and made a prettier
picture than even the other did, because
She is a handsomer boat to look . at
aettinsr mill n mnvin
, The : Shamrock carried that breesei
around the second mark, which, by the
way. she sailed wide. But the Resolute
did not turn it wide. They must have
been doing soma thinking aboard her, for
hero waa a race slipping gone, if some
good gain was not made soon. Around
she' came, turning the stakes as a trolley
turns a corner, and in with her small
headsalls and out with her big balloon
almost as she turned.
XIAO MAINTAINED
I The Shamrock ran on for four miles
before she broke out her big headsail.
and then it was hardly up before a big
rent was seen In the lower in-board cor
ner ot It. ....
The Shamrock was leading by about
nine minutes when she squared away for
home. She had to allow the Resolute
eight minutes or so for her own earlier
start and larger measurements. The in
terest lay then in whether the Resolute
could pull tip on the green one running
home. It would have been interesting
If It had turned out to be a spinnaker
run all the way then, because the two
have hot yet fought it out with the wind
held aft. But the shifty wind changed
again and in came spinnakers and up
went the big headsalls again. ,:
The Resoulte could not make It. She
came within two minutes and 27 seconds
of doing it with her time allowance. The
finish was very pretty. The wind had
gone flat and both boats were slipping
easily along. The Shamrock had a mile
or so to go when she caught a- fresh
hreese and laid over to It, and was lay
ing over to it with a beautiful white lee
from her bow to well astern of her when
she crossed.
RECEITEB WITH ECLAT
As she crossed she got a great recep
tion. No whistles tried Ks save any.
steam on her. They cut loose. Back at
the two turning marks the whistles "had
been mostly for Resolute. It was as If

Lawnmower Race Suggested
By Blsg W. Lardser
New Tork. July 21. -Capt. Burton or
whatever his name is was officially
canned off the good ship Shamrock be
fore yesterday's race
started, but when I
. started Capt. Burton
was at the helm hard
port. v. In the two
days races the ex
perts had criticized
Capt. Burton severe
ly for, not taking ad
vantage of his op
ponents and he was
supplanted according
to the newspapers by
one Capt Turner so
when it come time
for the race . CaDt.
Burton was still the skipper of the Sham
rock and if he was made a monkey out
of in . the first races why. somebody 'was
made a monkey out of yesterday.
But the boys say it isn't ethical - to
use the words the Shamrock and the
Resolute. In order to be perfectly nau
tical the definite article must be left
out. .
So here and after-we will try to do
that some so leave us give us a chrono
logical account of the race.

The two sloops was supposed to start
at 12 noon, but neither them nor" the

quarter of an hour and a way they went
like a mole crawling across the yard.

hoisting her cello a string; discords fol

stir up a little breeze, but nothing hap
pened. At l':51 Shamrock hauled down
her jib topsail and substituted a gob

over, the challenger had won. Everything
was turned loose for the winner. Mean
time, the Resolute) almost two miles
astern Bhe looked was waiting for that
fine young breeze to come her way. And
when It came she started. Everybody
who carried a watch had it out and
was doing his own timing as She came
on. Would she make It in time?
Well, she did iot make not quite. But
she . came on gallantly, never slacking
until she had finished. And they might
have been saying thanks to themselves
aboard her. because she was hardly
across when she hoisted 'a signal, which
meant that they were ready to race the
next day. There was a day of grace
which was theirs to rest up - and over
haul if they cared to. claim it.
GOOP RACE WEDNESDAY
But they did not care to claim . it.
There was something .In the: way they
snapped up tht signal, which .said, "We
want to get at that boat - agajg), . and
the ' sooner the better." '- . .
; B& -Wednesday's race ought to be a good
one. " If there Is any kind of a breeze,
it will be 'a great one, for if the Sham

FEDERAL RESERVE
T
Inability of Northwestern packers
to obtain sufficient capital from fed
eral reserve banks to finance annual
fruit purchases will force some- can
ners to close their plants and grow
ers consequently will lose heavily
on the 1920 crop, according to state
ments of, representatives of smaller
canners, assembled In Portland Tues
day afternoon to discuss the situa
tion. That the fruit Industry - of Oregon
and . Washington is facing ; a crisis
which will ; have Its Climax this week
unless the banks are prevailed upon to
relent in their attitude toward the can
nery men, ia the .belief expressed by
both growers and buyers. -.
, Despite the' fact' that ' canning com
panies have a large number of orders
for fall delivery and that ''every Indi
cation points to bare store shelves next
season, : the. federal reserve banks
under the plea of desiring not to take
available funds - from "essential Indus
tries" have refused 'the "short term
loans that would tide the canners over
the next two months, ; carinerymen de
clare - . - ' ... .- -
DISCRIMINATION DEXIEB
, Discrimination is not being shown to
ward the canning Industry according to
a statement made Wednesday by Fred
erick Greenwood, manager of the Port
land branch of . the federal reserve. r
"Inability of canners to obtain suf
ficient capital from member banks Is
due to a general tightening of credit
everywhere. Firms that formerly needed
$100,000 now find they must get along on
B0 per cent of that amount.
r "The cannerymen did 'hot make ar
rangements for the capital early enough
with the result that the credit percent
age of member banks is already taken.
We are taking bankers' acceptances for
the required credit, just as we 'did for
the, wool men and probably will have to
do for wheat growers.
"We believe that the canning indus
try is essential and much as we would
like to help them, our rulings will not
permit the granting of loans over a cer
tain percentage." - r
Country bankers and -the -Portland
banks are willing to support the can
nerymen for the - $60,000,000 estimated
as necessary to swing the 1920 fruit
industry of the Northwest. :- But the
small bankers do not have the capital
unless . the ; banks which are federal
reserve members will come to their
assistance. -
TIME IS SHORT '
The necessary capital must be obtained
this week to keep the growers from los

time the fruit is purchased until It Is
shipped. -
Raspberry and loganberry crops must
be accepted this week, say the cannery
men and if the capital is not provided
this will be impossible. These crops will
be followed closely by the plum, prune,
blackberry and pear crops.
The Oregon fruit crop this year will be
worth between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000,
and much will be lost to the state Unless
capital is provided almost Immediately. ,
SMALL CANNERIES CLOSING
Some of the smaller canneries are al
ready closing their doors, owners said.
This year above all others would bring
a very heavy loss as fruit shipments Are
not "getting to the East as in former
years because . of . ralL congest ions, , car
shortages and as the housewife ts not
buying the fruit like she did in former
years because of the price of sugar.
Several millions of dollars' worth Of
orders for fruit have already been re
ceived by Oregon cannerymen. it is esti
mated. : This Is the proof offered by the
canners that' there will be no slump in
tha market which would endanger the
loans.
MONEY NEEDED e-DATS.
Beginning this week, the period during
which the capital win be needed is about
CO days, say . the cannerymen. ' The
products will then be delivered and the
money may be returned. '-
W. G, P. Harding, governor of the
federal reserve board, recently sent a
letter to member banks, part of which
reads as follows; ;
"The federal reserve board has never
undertaken to say to member- banks
what paper they should discount sftd
what paper they should refuse. While
the board has pointed out the necessity
for the exercise of good judgment on the
part of member banks it Is left for local
banks the necessity, for wis discrimina
tion on their parts between the essential,
less essential and non-essential paper.
"If any seasonal industry such as the
canning industry, should come Into the
msrket for very -large loans next No
vember or December, it would be Incum
bent upon the borrowers to justify their
position in applying for loans . at that
time, and certain extraordinary condi
tion such - as inability to secure trans
portation facilities would have to be set
up in justification of their applications;
but this Is the season when the small
crops which are the basis of the can
ning industry are coming into the mar

Bethke's Skull May
Have Been Fractured
Otto Bethke, injured Sunday near Elk
rock on the Oswego road, when the au
tomobile in which he and two compan
ions were riding ran off the road and
rolled down a high embankment, is suf
fering intense pain at his Oswego home,
according to reports Wednesday from
attending physicians. Bethke suffered
five broken ribs, his doctor declares, and
there Is a possibility that his skull was
fractured In the accident that virtually
wrecked his automobile-. The two com
panions in the car with him escaped
without serious Injury.
