| : 2 = = PARTY LEADERS: BELITTLE THREAT OF LEMKE UNION TICKET Farley Calls Coughlin Forecast | of House. Majority ‘Too Foolish’ Washington, July 21.—(#)—Major party leaders, in the midst of cam- paign preparations, Tuesday professed to see no weakening of their party lines as a result of Rep. William Lemke’s Union party presidential rive. = While President Roosevelt continued his sailor's vacation and his Republi- can opponent, Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas, completed his acceptance ad- dress and relaxed pending its delivery Thursday, their campaign leaders talked about prospects in the fall election. Democratic Chairman James A. Far- ley described as “too foolish to be worthy of comment,” a statement by Rev. Charles E. Coughlin that the) Union party would elect a majority in_the house. Rep. Joseph W. Martin, Jr. Re- publican campaign manager in the/ east, declared Landon would lose few | votes to Lemke. Any Union party ef- fect iri the east, he said, would be to “make the states doubly sure for us.”! Attention On Landon Completion of Landon’s 3,500-word ‘acceptance speech centered attention for the time being upon Topeka and the opening of the Republican stand- ard bearer’s drive. While there was no definite word regarding the sub- ject matter of the address, observers looked for emphasis on such problems as agriculture, relief, employment, finance, tariff, monopoly and the con- stitution. The address will be deliver- ed at 8 p. m. (CST) Thursday, over a national hookup. While Landon made ready for the address, Chairman John D. M. Ham- ilton remained in the east, and the Baltimore Sun said he conferred Mon- day in New York with former Gov. Alired E. Smith, foe of the New Deal. “Mr. Hamilton begged the New Yorker to join actively in the fight to defeat the re-election of President Roosevelt,” said the Sun’s copyright story. “The Republican leader wants Mr. Smith to take the stump for Governor Landon, as former Gov. Joseph B. Ely of Massachusetts has/ agreed to do.” i May Talk Against FDR The Sun story expressed the writer's belief, however, that Smith would make no speeches under the auspices of the Republican national committee, but might speak against Mr. Roose- velt. In the capital Monday night the president was described as “a great humanitarian” by Senator Radcliffe (Dem. Md.). Addressing the Democratic National Women’s council, Radcliffe declared: “Roosevelt stopped the depression and started the nation back to pros- perity.” In the camp of the Townsendites, post-convention activities continued. Says Smith Will Quit Dr. F. E. Townsend, co-founder of the pension scheme, declared in Cleve- land that Gomer Smith, who assailed | Father Coughlin for criticizing Mr.|Sanish. clear Roosevelt, would soon resign as vice president of the movement. Smith, in New York, declared he would con- tinue “as I always have, on behalf of the Democratic party.” ‘With national political events mov- ing apace, a state primary held Mon- tana’s attention Tuesday. Senator Murray, Democrat seeking re-election, has three opponents in Tuesday's vote. They are Represen- tative Monaghan, Chief Justice Sands of. the state supreme court and As- sociate Justice Stewart. Those setk- ing the Republican nomination are State Senator Carroll, State Repre- sentative Egan, State Senator Larson ae Jesse N.
