After a few hours conference, the delegation said there was danger of the United States being involved. New York Evening Post. The disillusionment of the English independent labor party is a further I proof of the wisdom of allowing the bolshevists to alienate their own champions abroad. Bernard Shaw used to say that socialists were the best argument against socialism: The , acuteness of that judgment is being proved today in the case or ooisne vist Russia. Once remove the glamor of isolation and outside intervention and the present Russian regime will be reviled by its foreign friends and rejected by its own people, CAR SHORTAGE IS HEAD PIECES FOR WILSON TO HELP LL BASEBALL mm New York, Aug. 18.

Raleigh, Aug.. 18.- Suffrage sup porters were unable to obtain a re consideration today of yesterday's vote tabling the Susan B.' Anthony imendmont. The upper house of the North Carolina legislature adjourned it 1 o'clock and under its rules can not be reconsidered ntil the house acts. Athough the ratification resolution now before the house committee wil1 be reported out and made a special order of business tomorrow morning, the manouver to call up the suffrage- matter there was feared by suffrage leader.

"No one has yet accused the United States senate of ejecting Senator Reed from the San Francisco convention," aid Gov. Coolidge in his speech at .he Massachusetts Republican club din ner last night. True: nobody has yet accused the United States senate of Meeting Senator Truman Newberry, who has been convicted in a federal "ourt for his part in the purchase of . senatorship and sentenced to im prisonment. Senator Newberry happens to be he Republican majority. Without his vote the Republicans could not have Drganized the senate; Lodge could not have become chairman of the com mittee on foreign relations; the com mittee could not have been packed nnd the treaty would not have been wrecked. Senator Reed was "ejected" from the democratic convention in accord ance with rules and traditions that have been in force for three-quarters of a century. Does Gov.

President Wilson is not expected to do any speeehmaking in behalf of the Dem ocratic ticket this fall, but he is not going to sit idly by during one of the most portentous campaigns of recent years and see his fellow Dem ocrats get all the excitement. And 'while Governor Cox (and IFt'anklin V. Koosevelt are jumping from one rostrum to another the White Heue Will echo to the eliet : - v me jjicsi- dents typewriter in the interest of the ticket. It is probable that the chief Wil sonian aid to the campaign will be in the form of letters, and the very weight of his position as chief ex ecutive will insure them the widest circulaton. It is probable that oven now some of his ideas have been put down in a rough draft, but noth ing leaves the president's hands un til it has been carefully re-read, and every phrase and sentence properly balanced and polished to literary per fection. Those in daily contact with affairs at the White House hardly expect the president toappear in public dur ing the campaign, except as casual glimpses of him may be caught as he goes riding or as "he reviews some parade from' the east wing of the white house. During the summer he has taken two or three short motor rides a week, but very recently has taken to riding in a victoria carriage behind a pair of handsome bays. Indications are that the president is very sensitive about his condition, and although on several occasions he has allowed newspaper photograph ers to make pictures of him as his carrifn-o or automobile was leaving the White House, the secret service men always have shoed all motion picture operators away. When his health was normal the president was a consistent patron of a iocal vaudeville theatre, and the old timers on the circuit wre accustomed to look for him in his favorite mez zanine box, but htough he gets out for rides frequently, he has not been serp i a tbonh-0 r tho last twelve months, and it does not app'Jar prob aVe that hr. will attend a playhouse for some time. The white house remains the storm center of rumors of alll kinds, most of which are so far-fetched as to be laughable.' One c-f the latest is that the president as soon as his term ex pires is joing to return lo Europe. In the early days of the summer a new story cropped un every day as f'o whei-the ipreJent . intended tn spend his vacation, in spit? of the re peated statement at the white house that he would remain in Washington. These stories stopped only when Rear Admiral Cary Grayson, his physician, left for a short vacation in the Blue Ridge mountains and Saratoga Springs, for then it was apparent thit the president was njot goinig away. It is generally thought that the president's a'orsi"!! to appearing m public since his illness last-fall is in some measure responsible for his con tinued stav in Washington, and his physicans have said repeatedly he was able to travel if he deirod to do so. Through audiences with party lead ers and meetings with cabinet every Tuesday, as well as by means of the newspapers, President Wilson keep? in close . touch with developments of the campaign, and whatever he con tributes to it. will be up to the minute His chief interest, of course, is in the issue of the league of nations and thought he may devote some atten tion to other aspects of the political batle. it is as an exnonen of the league that his best efforts will be put forth. The president's attitude toward the Polish-Russian situation will be close ly watched by his political friends and foes alike, for it wilj! have a most im portant hearing on the nation's for eign policy and cannot escape both censure and commendation in a presi dential year. This question will have an indirect bearing on the campaign, its weight depending on how seriously theadvance of the bolsheviki threaten to upset once more the Jeace of western Europe and the world at large. MACK D1IEARTED? JUST IAD THIS By the Associated Press. Wasiiingto, Aug. IS. William G. McAdoo called oi President Wilson today for the first time since the Democratic national convention. As h entered the executve offices he was halted by the photographers He didn't like the first snap. "That was too solemn," he said, "hit me while I am smiling. I don't want anybody to think I am unhappy over the outcome at San Francisco." 5 rr P. . ' ' 4
