DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1927.
THINKS MG AOOO DID WISE THING Col. Charles A. Greathouse, Indiana Democratic Committeeman, Gives View Indianapolis. Sept. 19 (UP)- William Gihbs McAdoo did the wisest posslide thing in withdrawing from the 1928 race for the Democratic presidential nomination, according to the opinion of Col. Charles, A. Greathouse, Democratic National committeeman from Indiana. In an Interview with the United Press today Greathouse declared that he was very pleased to hear that McAdo had withdrawn. “It will make him a much bigger figure in Democratic politics,” Greathouse pointed out, ‘‘And will give the Democratic party a magnificent opportunity to send its candidate to the White House next year. ‘ With McAdoo.and Al Smith struggling for supremacy as they did in the last convention,'’ he continued, ‘‘All hopes of the Democrats to carry the election would probably have been ruined. Probably neither would have been strong enough to win the nomination, but would merely have caused another disastrous deadlock such as mined our chances lu 1924. “With McAdoo definitely out of the race, we shall probably be able to nominate a strong candidate in five days or less. If we cap do that, I have little doubt that we can carry the election. Great house paid tribute to McAdoo's unselfishness in withdrawing from the race. ‘‘He has shown he is a true Democrat with the interests of his party at heart,” the National committeeman declared.” McAdoo, Meredith In East New York, Sept. 19—(UP)—William G.
