Neither McAdoo s friends nor the Ford agents will allow themselves more than vaguely admit that there 4s such a understanding between -William a McAdoo and Hen. ry Ford, but it is an established fact that oi all the candidates except Ford himself who are new in the field no one comes as near his ideal for the of fice as McAdoo. The two men har monise completely on the subject of labor and next to Woodrow Wilson, no one had more persistently urged Hen ry Ford to enter the race in Michigan in Htm for senator than jucAdoo. What the McAdoo people are trying to do, and in many places they are reported to have succeeded, is to make McAdos the second choice of the Ford delegates in the convention. It is now very evident that the De troit man will have a large number 'of delegates in the Middle and 'North Western States. Bet the tact that tthe Ford men are not (fiemanding that the McAdoo delegates make FordSheir second choice is pretty good proof that they do not expect Ford to be the final choice of the convention.
