THE BICHMOND PALLADIUM AND StIN-TELEGRAM. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 7, 19Z0.

LOCAL REPUBLICANS IVATCH DEVELOPMENTS IN STATE CLOSELY Wayne county Republican have "been watching with keen interest the snores made on the political board, by candidates for the gubernatorial nom

ination and the skirmishps between

Governor Goodrich and Senator Wat

eon, for control of the statie organization. - . ' The "harmony meeting called by

Chairman Will Hays, was the culmi

nation of a series of antecedent causes

partly contributed by friedls of Senator Watson in Wayne ooumty.

When they planned to ha-fe the sen

ator announce his candidacy lor tne

nomination for ' president In connection with a speech delivered in Richmond some time ago, Governor Goodrich's friends succeeded In staving off

the movement temporarily. But this did not deter Senator Wat

son's friends from persisUratly advo

cating his nomination, desprflte the gov

ernor's political aBDlratloaiB in tne

same direction. v

While Senator Watson ostensibly was not seeking the nomination,-his

friends were quietly building up an organization in the state. !Their activ

ity aroused the ire of the Goodrich contingent, and conditions presently Reached such an acute .point that (Chairman Hays, to restore harmony,

called the Indianapolis meeting. Extends to Governor's. Place.

In - the meantime, the contest be

tween the governor and tjhe senator,

had extended to the gubernatorial

t lghti It was charged tliat the McCray candidacy had the support of

Senator Watson and that Edward C

Toner was backed by the Goodrich

Jmen." ' - -

Indianapolis politicians1 -saw in the

announcement of J. W. Feeler of that icit, that he would seek th nomination for governor, an indication that Toner

sad been sidetracked for Fesler.

The "harmony meeting. it is re

ported, succeeded in obtaining a prom

ise rrom tne rnenas or ootn Governor Goodrich and Senator Watson, that they would not interfere with the races which the gubernatorial candidates were making. Senator Watson, it will be recalled, openly withdrew from the race for the presidential nomination at the Indianapolis meeting, after, so it is reported, . Governor Goodrich's friends threatened to oppose not only his ambitions in that direction but also his efforts for re-nomination as senator. Although the' Indianapolis meeting restored harmony, it is said by some political observers that friends of Senator Watson have not relinquished their effort to land " the presidential nomination for him and that they are still trying to build up an organization that will put him in a strategic position when the opportune moment arrives. ;

territorial possessions, as, through the medium of the national reading circle of the Bureau of Education, thousands of Americans have enrolled their names, pledged to complete one or

more of the reading courses outlined; by the Home Education division of the United States Bureau of Education.

The national reading circle was

formed to answer the needs of old and young, who have long wished for some guide In their reading and who have needed some inspiration to continue a course after having commenced it.

Such inspiration is provided in the

awarding of a certificate bearing the

seal of the United States Bureau or

Education, signed by the Commission

er of Education, which is given to each person who offers satisfactory evidence of havlne read all the books in

the list of any one of the courses sub

mitted.

The courses arranged for the nation

al reading circle include: The World's Great Literary Bibles

and Modern. Reading Course for Parents. Miscellaneous Course for BoysMiscellaneous Course for Girls. Thirty Books of Great Fiction. Thirty World Heroes. . American Literature. Thirty American Heroes. ' American History. . .1 France and Her History. i "After War" Reading Courses.

1ects are now being prepared with the

cooperation and advice of experts ana

librarians. Among them are courses

on machine-shop work, shipbuilding,

seamanship, and Iron and steel.

Thousands Enrolled.

Even a casual glance at the thou

sands of names included in the roster of those enrolled In the national read

ing circle names that represent every

State and Include readers in Hawaii, Canal Zone, China, Philippine Islands, and Canada reveals that "From East to West the circling word

has passed;

From North to South the tested chain

holds fast." Included in the roster are: A farmer

in Missouri, a bank clerk in Arkansas,

a sheet-iron worker in New Jersey, a

mother in California, a telephone operator in Minnesota, a printing contractor in Illinois, a college president

West Indies, a draftsman in Connecticut, a "housewife and homemaker" in

Hawaii, a shirt cutter in Louisiana, a

manager of a credit department in Minnesota, an office boy in New York,

is a course for the mother and home maker, for the boy and girl, for the professional ' man, for the girl who

and women who desiro to. follow a definite course of study in the leisure of the winter days.

Suggestions From Commissioner. Books listed In the various reading

courses may be purchased from publishers or borrowed from libraries. The Bureau of "Education does not furnish or .lend books. In referring to the courses of the home reading circle, the Commissioner of Education

says: "Read first for pleasure, look

up necessary ,-. references, ana majce

brief notes sufficient to be able to make a summery later. v

"You will find it helpful to form a

reading, circle, . by asking others in your community to tako the course.

Members of the circle may tnen tam the books over together." "Readers may take ono or moro

courses. They are required to read Course I twice during the three years succeeding enrollment. Any other courses are to be read but once. No reading done previous to the date of

enrollment will bo considered adequate. A certificate will be given for

the roughest voyages in its history

laTouraine, French line steamer was in port today with several life boats

missing and the port side of her deck

smashed. She had 659 passengers

On board were Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Penrose, of Denver, Colo., who. returned from a visit to their daughter in Belgium. Mr. Penrose is a brother of Senator Boise Penrose of Pennsylvania. Among the passengers held by the immigration authorities were five young French women on their way to California, one to marry a former sergeant in the American army and the others to go to relatives. On pooling their money it was found there was ' not sufficient to pay all the railroad fares and leave a proper margin for expenses.

We had absolutely nothing to read in the way of history and general literature, and I was always halfstarved for something to read. But I rejoice that the young folks of today are so highly favored."
