Presi lent -jf'to the N. C. Federation of Women's! 'Clubs, at the third district meeting. at the O'Hemy hotel in Greensboro) Thursday, Nov, 2nd. Mrs. Jerman stressed the necessity of co-operation among the women in club work. She said they should not think in terms of an individual, but in the terms of the State, the Nation and the World. The club that looks no further than its own local inter ests is short lived. Two state prob lems which the club women can help to solve are the prison system and the child labor question. Mrs. Jerman urged that each local club have one especial piece of work on which to concentrate for the year. The remedy for low spirits in an organization is to get together and start something. As to the concrete work which the Federation is doing, Mrs. Jerman spoke of the 11 girls who are at tending N. C. College this year pro vided for by the Sallie Southall Cot ton loan fund, making a total of 60 who have been so supported. Ihe membership of the Federation has been increased by the complete amalgamation of the home bureau clubs, making a total membership of bd.OOO federated club women in N. C. Mrs. W. W. Martin, state Presi dent of the Missouri Federation of women's ciuos gave a thoroughly en- teresting address. She spoke of the duties of a club woman, saying that to be a club woman was no easv af- fair but one of infinite duties and re- sponsibilities. What binds us to- gether is love and womanly fellow- ship. Mrs. Martin appealed for a better knowledge of the state con- struction, for a better citizenship and for an active federation, ready and Obesrved Clean-up-Week.

Washington, November 7. The . presence of W. G. McAdoo in Wash ington at this time, while without any avowed political purpose, has stirred both the McAdoo and the anti-McAdoo forces to activity. Mc Adoo's lieutenants are trying to , smooth out the rough places and get I'd', friend.; solidified and ready to make a sharp drive for delegates to be launched immediately. The fact that the former secretary of the treasury, who has brought his family with him and who has been a visitor at the S. Street home of his father-in-law, Woodrow Wilson, haa tended to allay the fear among some of his friends that Mr. Wilson might oppose his candidacy. McAdoo haa told some of his intimates that the ex-President has never discussed his candidacy during his visits here. Be tween them the subject has always been taboo. He has left the impres sion that Mr. Wilson is neither for nor against him and will not become involved in the pre-convention con test. For one thing the visit of the ex secretary has put new life into the activities of the forecasters whe are trying to assess his chances for the nomination. The McAdoo and the anti-McAdoo people are as far apart as the poles in their estimate of the McAdoo strength. The McAdoo par tisans are extremely optimistic in their estimates of his strength. In fact if they are not blinded by their own enthusiasm to the chances of the opposing candidates, the ex-ec-retary of the treasury has not much farther to go in order to "sew up" the Democratic nomination. The McAdoo people claim that they are assured of the votes of the following states in the convention; and these States are practically con ceded by his opponents, though they do not admit that every vote of these States will be cast for him. He is conceded a decisive majority in each of these States: Arizona, 6 votes; Arkansas, 11; California, 26; Colora do, 12; Florida, 12; Georgia, 88; Ida ho, 8; Iowa, 26; Kansas, 20; Michi gan, 30; Minnesota, 24: Mississippi, 20; Missouri, 8ft; .Montana. . ti'Ue- ' braska, 16; Nwada,'67'NewvMexicoi 6; North Carolina, 24; Oklahoma, Z0; Oregon, 10; South Carolina, 18; South Dakota, 10; Tenessee, 24; Tex as, 40; Utah, 8; Washington, 14; West Virginia, 16; Wyoming, 6; Alas ka, 6; Hawaii, 6; Phillipines, 6; Canal Zone, 2; Porto Rico, 6; Total 518. Even of the ex secretary gets all f.,fhe voute th"8 represented, he will still be short of a majority and far short of a two-thirds majority re quired to nominate. The opposition centends that there is rough sledding ahead of him to win the nomination. States where opposition to Mc Adoo's nomination will be stiffest are as follows: Maine, 1Z votes, now 1 both by McAdoo and his opponents. I Other disputed territory' is Iowa, Ken- tucky and Wisconsin, The hnw f the oniviKitinri m t prevent McAdoo from receiving the 1 required two-thirds majority of the I convention. But his managers are ! contending that if he gets a majority i he will be entitled to the nomination, If the opposition does not concede the nomination to him on the basis of a majority, the two thirds rule wiB be abolixhed by the convention. , The McAdoo people admit that sh0u!d Henry Ford declnre himself a bornocrut and enter the Democratic primaries lor the nomination, he ! n-nnld fwvnmp MrAdoo's mmt ilinmr- whichiOUH rival for the nomination. But they profess little fear that the au tomobile manufacturer will make such n move. One McAdoo lieuten ant said Ford would take several States from McAdoo in the West bat the loss would be more than counter balanced In the East and the Fore j candidacy as Democrat would itip Underwood In the 8outh.
