•PLIGHT PUTS REED IN SHADOW OF WHITE HOUSE Leadership in Prima r y Quiz May Make Him Democratic Nominee. Times Washington Bureau. 1222 New York Avenue WASHINGTON, July 2. Smith, William McAdoo and Governor Albert G. Ritchie of Maryland, most prominent contenders just now for the Democratic presidential nomination for 1928, may have to figure with Jim Reed. Congress is adjourning with more politicians and newspaper observers talking about the Missouri Senator in connection with the Democratic nomination than about any other candidate. Senator Reed has been in the Senate picture this past session more than any of his colleagues and the session terminates with him dominating the news from Washington, because of the job he has done in exposing Pennsylvania political corruption. Reed is chairman of the Senate committee investigating 1 primaries and author of the resolution directing the probe. It was his. personality and aggressiveness which stampeded the Senate into passing the resolution. Others Campaigning While other Senators are busying themselves about re-election Reed will be pushing his investigation. Illinois will come next and other States thereafter. Even before the Pennsylvania slush probe got'under way Reed had impressed himself unmistakably upon this session of Congress. When Reed talks now. Senators pay him the high compliment of deserting the cloak rooms and the lobbies to come and listen. Correspondents flock into the press galleries. Always an orator, he has been more effective, his friends say, during the past few months than ever in his life. Recent speeches on prohibition, the world court, the Italian debt settlement, the proposition to impose cloture on the Senate, farm relief legislation and his tribute to the late Senator Lafollette, are regarded as among the best of Senate oratory. Wet Spokesman Reed gradually has become the spokesman for the le desiring modification of the Volstead Law. He nut life into the Senate prohibition investigation and now he is engaged in an investigation of the AntiSaloon League as a part of the inquiry into campaign expenditures. Because he seems to have reached the fullness of his powers and because he is so warmly championing the cause of modification, many are talking of him as a presidential posefbiliyt on A modification platform.
