Democratic Chairman Cum
mings Foresees Third Candi
dacy if Covepant Is Rejected .
CALLS G, 0. P. REACTIONARY
By the Associated Press
Chicago. May -S. President Wil
son's candidacy for a third term will
be determined largely by the fate of
the league of nations, in the opinion of
Homer S. Cummings, chairman of the
Democratic nationnl committee, who
came to Chit-ago today to preside at a
two-days session of that body.
"While I have no information le
garding President Wilson's intentions
about becoming a candidato for n third
term, 1 believe that tlje question largely
rests on the fate of the league of na
tions." said Chairman Cummings "If
the league of nationR should bj nuy
chance be defeated, nnd this to my mind
is unthinkable, the pressure brought to
bear on the President to rutf ngain
would be Aery great and I feel certain
that he would be re-elected if the
league of nations is successful I do not
think the pressure would be nearly as
great."
in the absence of definite word from
President Wilson on the subject there
was little gossip of candidates among
the party leaders. The names most fre
quently mentioned were William G. Mc
Adoo, former secretary of the treasury.
and A. Mitchell Palmer, United States
attorney general, who will address the
committee tomorrow night.
Every state was represented by either
n committeeman or a proxy when
Chairman Cummings called the body to
order in a session which formally
marks the opening of the presidential
I campaign of 1020.
Reactionaries Leading Republicans
Chairmnn Cummings praised the rec
ord of progressive achievements of the
nninni(l tit nntlnn.! .U!I.L. tl 1
Dernocratic national administration and
declared that the Republican party
again is falling under reactionary
leadership as indicated by the recent
organization of Congress.
He urged a closer co-operation be
tween the different departments of the
party organization in preparing for the
next national campaign nnd referred to
the important part women will take in
future political activities.
He said he expected to visit every
state in the union before returning to
.civ ions in Augusr. i-nrty beailquar
tcrs, he added, would remain in Wash
ington until the opening of the IfilM
campaign, when they would be removed
to Xew York. It was probable that a
sub-headquarters would je opened iu
i,nicago onu peruaps other cities Inter.
In a few days .Mr. Cummings will an-
polnt a number of committees to take
up active work for the next presidential
campaign. . .

dampen the enthusiasm of those who
had planned to attend the Dou Horse

ing particularly well in white linen

an antique store, cafeteria and a mar
velous rummage sale.

WIFE OF LIEUTENANT
REPORTED KIDNAPPED
Mrs. Anne Forbush, Married at
Swarthmore, Missing From
Home irv Wisconsin
Mrs. Anne Ilamsey Korbush, wife of
Lieutenant Dascomb Hdmund Forbush,
of Swarthmore, insterioiisly tlis'
appeared on Sunday from her home in
Port AVnshinBt,on, 'Wisconsin, accjutj
inE to information which has been re
ceded in this city. A rumor spread'
that shn had been klduaped nnd was
beiiiR held for ransom.'
"We hope there is nothing in the
kidnaping rumor," said Dr. Byron For
bush. of Swarthmore. the father of
Lieutenant Forbush. "When last heard
of our daughter-in-law was doing well
and we expected to hate her with us for
n visit shortly. She had not been well
during the winter nnd the lieutenant
wrote us that ie was working near Port
Washington in order to be with her
as much as posible," T)r. Forbush
nnd his wifo were both greatly shocked
at the 'news.
livery agency near Port AVashington
has been called in to assist in the search
being made for Mrs. Forbush. Blood
hounds from the Illinois stnte. prison
at .Toliet are being used. Her father.
William II. Forbush, president of the
First National Bank at Port Washing
ton, can give no reason for his daugh
ter's disappearance.
The missing woman was married in
Swarthmore last jear. She and her
husband were graduates of Oberlin Col
lege, and before her marriage Mrs.
Forbush was an instructor of athletics
at the Oberlin T. W. C. A.' Lieuten
ant Forbush was discharged in March.
He had been n member of the Thirty -seventh
Division. At 'the time of liis
enlistmeut he was preparing for the
ministry nt the I'nion Theological Sem
inary, New York.

All tonns between this city and Bal

thieves who jesterday shot" and killed
Abner Braun, thirty-five jears old, u
motorcycle patrolman of Trenton, on
the Bensalem pike nt Busllcton as he
was abptit to arrest them.
flyers were sent out yesterday, by
the Trenton nnd Philadelphia police,1
ful so far po clue has been obtained ns
to the whereabouts of the machine.
The Baltimore police have rstnbtiscd
the fact that the license numbers oA the
car were held by Abrabnm Mendels, of
thnt city, but that they were stolen from
his innchiuc, which is in rt garage nt
Baltimore. The "murder car" was
of n different make from Mcndels's ma
chine. Seven children nre fatherless nnd n
little womnn nf lf.27 Clinton street,.
Trenton, is n widow, ns a result of the
tragedy. Braun's death is the second
violent death in the family in scleral
years. His brother Henry died from
injuries receitcd in n boxing bout in
Trenton some jears ngo. Matched
against Jack Smith, known ob the
"Terrible Blacksmith," Henry Braun
was so badly beaten in n contest in
the old Hiding Academy that be never
recovered consciousness. j
Braun, who was one of the best liked!
patrolmen in Trenton, had a hobby for
farming nnd chicken-raising and had
gone into it extensively on his one-acre
lof nt Clinton nnd Slenton streets. He
nlsn occasionally drove n jitney between
Trenton and Camp Dix.
Braun had followed the thieves, who
were riding In n (stolen enr nt a terrific
speed, from Trenton. Xenr tHe avia
tion field, on the Bensalem pike at
Bustleton, he taught up with the inn
chine. He swenrd his motorcycle to the
side of the hht car nnd called upon the
two men to stop. One of the occupants
leaned over the sidn of the car nnd
pointing an nutomatic at the policeman
fired.
Fno shots hit the policeman and his
motorcycle toppled to the side of the
road where he was found dead a few
moments later.
The thieves sped down the pike.
through Bustleton. South of the town
they turned into Castor road and were
In't seen going in the direction of the
Northeast Boulciard, headed for this
city.
Congress Backward

Continued rrom rase One
actually incapable of that sort of crit
icism. Sherman's unbridled rhetoric,
Johnson's flights of imagination, no
where touched the fundamental virtues
or defects of the league of nations
plan. They were for the Congressional
Ilecord nud for the folks nt home.
Members of the House naval affairs
committee smiled knowingly when Sec
retary Daniels told them that the most'
powerful navy in the world would be
required by the United States if the
league of untions failed to become u
reality.
It is the acquired habit of congqess
men nnd senators now in Washington
to smile in the presence 'of any word

Yet 'the House military affairs com
mittee nnd the senators who constantly
bnlt the; secretary of the navy need not!
hnve token tho word of Mr. Daniels
as final In relation (to the details of
future armaments. They might have
referred to the report Issued not long
ago by men as informed and disinter
ested as Lord Bryce, I.ord Morley nnd
Lord Robert Cecil, who, ns members of
the commission formed to study the fu
ture' development of militarism, did not
stop with the sort of calculations which
Mr. Daniels is accustomed to present nt
cohgresslonnl hearings.
The House naval committee might
have gone even beyond the British com
mission. They might have interviewed
the geniuses who were feverishly com
pleting pew chemical and electrical hor
rors and new surprises in tanks, nir
planes nnd battleships, just ns the .war
closed.
Vnless scientific warmakers nnd the
commissions familiar with their later
work nre talking arrant nonsense, the
largest navy in the world would not be
adequate to the protection of an iso
lated America in the future.
Preparedness in the future will have
navies and armies as mere details in tho
background. At the Navy Department
in Washington! they are, already plan
ning airplanes twice bb large as those
in which tho transatlantic flight was
completed, machines powerful enough to
ride out any gale, ana to alight in
heavy seas and fly again, to carry fuel
enough for a strnlght line flight around
the world.
Even this is a beginning. Prepar
edness in the future will be for war jn
., .1. -.vnr with tanks. chemfcnls nnd
electricity nhd it will imolve burdens of
taxation ns appalling as those previous
Iv involved in war itself. It is. like
Congress to ignore this aspect fT the
matter because it is ,in the future autl
it requires imagination.
The attitude of the House naval com
mlftee at the current hearing, its cjni
clsm nnd its suspicion, its alertness for
party issues is adequate to Unspire pro
fanity or despair, or both, in any ra
tional beholder.
Momentarily at least the Democrats
in the Senate achieved the morally
superior vantage ground today when, at
the committee elections, they maneu
vered successfully to put the Republi
cans on record as a solid and reunited
faction under-thc Penrose-Lodge dic
tatorship. Objections made to the He-
publican committees were entered
chiefly to be printed in the Record nnd
in the press of the country.
No sorrier failure is jecordrd in
Washington than that of the. Borah
movement toward progressivism in the
party. Borah was lugubrious. He may
go back to Idaho, or even before the
country, nfter this session cuds, with
the responsibility for having defeated
the aspiring elements in his own 'party
ns well as President Wilson's plan for
peace.
