BY ROBERT T. SMALL. NEW YORK, December 16.—Tam- many Hall is getting ready to make the fourth inauguration of Alfred E. Smith as Governor of New York State the occasion for which will mark the beginning of the drive to send the chief executive of the Empire State to the White House. Tammany will not give up this drive until the last horn blows at the Dem- ocratic convention of 1928. The inauguration takes plice on | New Year day at Albany, and already d has been sent forth for the hering of the cohorts. Friends nd polit.cal admirers of the governor from all sections of the country have sent word they will be on hand, and hotel space at Albany is said to be ex- hausted. Special trains are to be run rom New York City, and, heading ie big inaugural parade, which Gov. mith will review, will be the full orce of New York's police band— omething like 150 pieces. Leaders to Perfect Plans. leaders expect to hold . Smith is ~ugural ad- general decla- He will deal expected to deliver an i iress which will be too, for, how- ever much his friends want him to come squarely out in the open as a candidate for the Democratic nomi- nation, the governor insists upon re. maining steadfastly in his role as chief executive of the State. He feels that if he has any claims upon the Wider consideration of the people it is strictly upon his record of achieve- ments as governor and he will stick to his knitting to the end. Gov. Smith has stated that person- ally he will not raise a hand to get the nomination. He will not make a speaking tour of the Nation, or any part of it, for.the purposes of polit- fcal ‘address. The nomination will have to seek him. He will not seek it. He does not intend atu nding the national convention either as a dele- Bate or a visitor. He does not care Where the convention is held. If nominated at all he would rather be nominated in some Western city than here in New York. Foresees Big Fight. The governor seems to be aware that a big fight will be made upen him by the same forces which were active in 1924, He does not want to invite the warfare anew, but at the same time he does not intend to run away from it. In the heat of the 1924 battle Gov. Smith offered to withdraw from the race if William Gibbs McAdoo would follow the same course. The McAdoo managers would not listen to the proposition. Wheth- er the governor will listen to such a proposition in 1928 remains to be seen. The chances are he will not. | He would like the issue settled this next time, once for all. Friends of Gov. Smith are entirely pleased with his purely receptive mood. They will go out and do battle for him and they feel his position will be strengthened by his apparent in- difference. ‘There unquestionably has been an amelloration of some of the old-time bitterness against the governor jn the South and West, but delegates from that section will have to be won over can be won at all. They will have no instructions to vote for Gov. Smith, The very best the Smith forces can hope for is a large proportion of un- instructed delegates. will be in the open. Change in Situation Possible. Events of the next 18 months may materially change the aspects of things in the Democratic party, but eral sentiment in the South and West in favor of uninstructed delegates. The “drys” of the party may merely be delaying their drive for instructed | delegates for Mr. McAdoo or some | other true blue advocate of prohibi- tion. ' The elements of the party ar- rayed openly against Gov. Smith in- sist_their opposition is based solely |on his wetness and wot because he |is a Catholic. The governor's friends do not believe this is true. They say the chief opposition to him is religious and that fs why they want the issue squarely raised and met in the next convention. Meantime the inaugural party at | Albany is to be a grand “Smith-for- | President” jamboree. It will be an | interesting political event.
