Two Political Giants Clash In Democratic Split
New York July 12 Two outstanding Democratic personalities faced defeat amid a sharp policy split. Governor Al Smith accepted his loss with sportsmanlike grace pledging to work for the Davis Bryan ticket, while William Gibbs McAdoo, crushed by disappointment, sent congratulations to John W. Davis but offered no pledge of support. His silence stems from belief the loss was misjudged and may signal future action after Europe. The McAdoo bid began six years after World War I and centered on railroad labor policy and a growing federal employee following in the Treasury and Internal Revenue bureaus.
