POSSIBILITIES
For President
IS NICE IN RUNNING
Or Is Maryland Governor Futilely Striving
FOR G O. P. NOMINATION?
This is the eighth of a series
on Republican presidential possi
bilities by Leslie Eichel, writer of
the World at a Glance column.
By LESLIE EICHEL
Governor Harry W. Nice of Mary
land cannot be < seriously considered
for the Republican nomination for
the presidency —by all the rules and
considerations of the political game.
But he tours the country hopefully
anyway.
And one never can tell. This writer
recalls that one observer, in listing
the Republican possibilities in 1930.
put down Harding’s name with the
observation that he, of course, had
no chance of nomination.
Governor Harry Nice has several
••insurmountable" factors against
him. He is unknown to approximately
90 per cent of the people of the Unit,
ed States, he has done nothing out
standing. and he is in a state off to
one side that hardly counts in the
balance of power.
The Maryland executive goes
around the country denouncing the
costs of the New Deal. That is a
good campaign cry for a Knox, a
Vandenberg or a Hoover, but, un
fortunately, Nice is governor of a
state where expenses are heavy.
Democrats have seized upon that and
assert that costs have jumped sky
high in Maryland.
The Democrats charge the same in
New Jersey, where Governor Harold
G. Hoffman, Republican, has been
having a serious time with taxes.
ANTI STATE?
Harry Nice's victory over Albert
C. Ritchie for the governorship of
Maryland in 1934 was not an anti-

Miy chance —or nott
New Deal victory. Ritchie was and
is an anti-Roosevelt man. During his
long incumbency in the governorship
of Maryland he clung to the conser
vative beliefs of the Democrats.
The Nice victory was on local is
sues. That weakens the Nice appeal
for the Republican presidential nom
ination. His victory was static.
Basically, however, Nice in a meas
ure represents the conservative ele
ments of the entire South Atlantic
group of states. For example, Sena,
tor Millard E. Tydings, Democrat* of
Marlyland, would fit in better with
Nice than with Franklin D. Roose
velt. So would Senators Glass and
Byrd of Virginia, and Senator Smith
of South Carolina.
But the Republicans never could
win the industrial midwest and the
agricultural west with Nice. It is as
far from Nice to Borah as from the
earth t 0 the moon.
And, unfortunately for Nice, he has
little physical appeal for the lean
worker and farmer. He seems a jolly,
stou% man, always attending ban'-
quets.

Bailey following their conference in
Washington yesterday with Works
Progress Administrator Hopkins, in
which conference they were joined
by Congressman Robert L. Doughton,
who is returning to his home in Al
legheny county today or tomorrow.
Governor Ehringhaus, Senator
Bailey and Congressman Doughton
wenty to Washington yesterday as a
committee named some ten days ago
to attempt to find out why North
Carolina was getting so few projects
approved and if there was any actual
discrimination against the State. Aft
er their conference with Administra
tor Hfcpkins yesterday, They issued a
joint statement in which they agreed
there was no discrimination and in
which they said Hopkins had given
assurance that North Carolina would
get at least $10,000,000 more in either
PW(A or WPA projects, depending up
on the President’s decision, expected
now within the next few days.
It was further learned in Wash
ington yesterday that Secretary Ickes
had been called to Hyde Park today
for a conference with the President
and that Hapkins would probably be
called there again within a few days,
evidently for a final show-down on
thed ivision of authority between the
PWA headed by Ickes, and the WPA
headed by Hopkins. The opinion in
Washington was very strong to the
effect that the outcome of these con
ferences would be ad ecision on the
part of the President to centralizei
all control of both agencies under
Hopkins.
It was also made clear to the com
mittee by Hapkins that while very
few projects for North Carolina had
keen approved by either the PWA
cr WPA. that this did not Tnean that
any had had been finally rejected
but that they were merely being held
in abeyance pending final decision by
the President as to how they shall be
handled.
Surface indications in Washington
yesterday were that more of the pend
ing WPA projects are likely to be ap_
proved than of PWA projects, for the
reason that the primary object of all
projects approved from now is to put
as many people to work as possible,
and that the WPA projects ear de
signed to provide work for a larger
number of persons than is provided
for by the PWA projects. This will
undoubtedly prove a disappointment
to those who have b#en wanting lar
ger projects involving large expen
ditures for materials than can be ap
proved by the WPA. But the total
amount of federal money to be ex
pended in North Carolina will remain
the same, Hopkins assured the com
mittee, even though the number of
PWA projects may be fewer than had

selectors last year
been hoped.
It is very clear to those who were
in Washington yesterday, including
PWA and WPA projects so far here
for North Carolina has been the in
creasingly evident departmental rival
ry between PWA Administrator Ickes
and WPA Administrator Hopkins
pending a final decision by the Presi
dent as to which shall administrtor

Dr. McDonald has declared for the
New He went so far as to offer
his withdrawal from the contest if
Farmer Bob Doughton, champion New
Dealer of the country, would make
the race. True it is, Republicans had
welcomed the late Huey Long as an
ally, but it’s different with Dr. Mc-
Donald. Such Republicanism as now
abides in North Carolina is concern
ed chiefly with putting down Pres
ident Roosevelt and all his work.
Mr. McDonald as the conspicuous
New Dealer would be the worst sort
of affront.
There is a community of interests.
The Republicans dislike the sales
Tax, but Dr. McDonald’s liberal at
tidude on the liquor question is an
other objection to him. One of the
excuses for Gilliam Grissom’s can
didacy for governor on the Republi
ran ticket is to lead the country as
far away from Roosevelt and McDon
ald as the North Carolina part of it
can be carried. It is conceivable
that the Republicans would be induc
ed to join hands with Hoey or Gra
ham to make certain the destruction
of the New Deal candidate McDonald.
But hooking up with him to make it a
dominant North Carolina policy is un
thinkable. *
Still, it is recalled here that the Re
publicans once fused with the Popu
lists, their anthithesis in every ma
jor political policy, to beat the Demo
crats of North Carolina. And that
may be the present enterprise. In
1894 the issue was “down with ma
chine government.’’ The Democratic
organization was charged with all
sorts of election frauds and with gov
ernment by big business, of which
there was iittle in those days. Some
such fraternization might be possible
now, but it is exceedingly unlikely.

SUPERFICIAL COMMOTION
Ruso.American relations inevitably
will continue to boil and bubble.
Moscow obviously simply cannot
control the activities of American
“reds” here in their native land. Yet
the administration has its reason for
persisting in blaming the Soviet out
fit for them; it is the best method of
proving that it is not itself, com
nunistic.
The danger of another World War,
however, is no mere bugaloo; that is
genuine.
Moreover, it is the consensus that
President Roosevelt must evolve a
startling program of new policies for
ihe 1936 campaign. An outline of
them is looked for on his coming
transcontinental speaking tour.
The Supreme Court shortly will be

IN MEMO RIAN- .
Thirty-seven years ago Emily Har.
ris, wife of E. C. Farris, was born in
Chatham County, North Carolina,
On September 3, 1935 jt was the will
of God to take her from us, after
long suffering, into eternal rest and
peace and that everlasting love of
Christ Jesus.
She was a member of the M. E.
Church of Henderson and we wish to
pay loving tribute to her by the fol
lowing resolutions:
First: That by her death, our
Church, The Lucy Closs Parker Mis
sionary Society, and the Women’s
Auxiliary have lost a faithful, loyal
member, the community organizations
an active co-worker, her neighbors a
kind friend, and her family a devoted
wife and an affectionate Mother.
Second: That we bow in humble
submission to the will of Him who
knoweth best.
Third: That we extend to the be
reaved family our deepest sympathy
and commend them to the One who
alone can comfort them in their deep
sorrow.
