Lty SHTHTES BVEN - SETBACK INUTA State Convention Fails to Approve Instructed Delegation. ial Dispatch to The Star SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, April 14.— { Utah Democra‘s will go to the national 1 eonvention at Houston without instruc- tions, Most of those elecied to go are { fnclined to support Gov. Smith of New York, but they aré not' bound to do { this and are open to evidence as to the value of the different candidates ! which may b> presented them in the me he work of the convention was not & surprise to those who know the peo- e of Utah. but it was a distinct shock 0 e Smith forces, which have bien g without apparent did the Smith workers, aug- : ed by an organication man from Wyoming and another from Montana. fail to have the delegation instructed for their maa but several of the more { sctive Smith boosters were denied laces on the delegation. Opposition to the Smith candidacy has be’n persistently growing in this State, and it may continue to grow At present the delegation. consisting of 16 men and women with half a vote each, stands about 10 to 6 against § Smith. Changes in this line-up are { likely to result as the different candi- | % dates develop or lose their prestige » that the convention. which was held 1ast Monday. does not tell much except ¢ that the Smith forees are hot so strong as they appeared to be here six weeks ag. A threatened fight on the Demo- eratic national committeeman, James Movle, failed to materialize, but an nexpectsd opposition to Mrs. Weston Yernon. national committeewoman, de- feated her and elected in her stead Mrs. Inez Knight Allen of Provo. Moyle was reclected by acclamation Republicans have been marking time @uring the last few weeks. being kept occupied with local difficulties, espe- cially in Salt Lake County. As about one-third of the voters of the State are in this county, dissention might prove disastrous. Numerous Republicans are working for nomination for Senator or governor, worth noticing against Senator King or Gov. Dern_within the Democratic party. FRANK P. STEWART. Pocket Arc Light Shown.

SUPPORT IS SOUGHT IN WAR ON HOWARD Sheldon Faction in Mississippi Asks Backing From Movement to Re-establish Party. Special Dispatch to The Siar. JACKSON. Miss., April 14. have been made by one fa n of the Republican party in Mississipii for support from headquarters of the Mis- sissippi Republican State-wide move- ment for hte re-establishment of the Republican party in that State. An appeal is issued over the signature of prominent members of the party urging active support and co-operation in the campaign directed against the Perry Howard organization. The Sheldon faction have urged Re- publicans in the State to refrain from having anything to do with the Howard organization, and in no way to partici- pate or to support the call issued by | Appeals but there has developed no opposition | that group for their county conven- tions (Seldon. April 4) and their State convention April 18, because that fac- tion is not totally constituted under the | laws of the State of Mississippi.

P. in New York Out to Beat Gov. Smith at Polis This Fall. | Special Dispateh to The Star | ALBANY, N. Y., April 14.—Republi- cans in New York St te this. week be- gan to gird their loins in preparation for a bitter fight at the polls this Fall to carry the State, even if Gov. Smith wins the Democratic nomina- tion for President. The real battle be- gan Thursday at a meeting of the | Republioan State committee in New York City, at which the international organization of the committee was re- vised as an indication of how deter- mined the G. O. P. is to increase the normal Republican presidential ma- jority in New York this year if pos- sible, At about th» same time came an- other stir in Republican circles when the committee on national affairs of the National Republican Club adopted a resolution favoring repeal of the | cighteenth amendment and_incorpora- | tion of a plank to that effect in lht{ party’s national platform. The entire | membership wi'l be asked to vote mli the resolution next Tuesday night, and in the meantime wets and drys within | |the club are showing almost frantic activity. Beaten Only Once. It is no mean task that the com- mittee sets for itself when it under- takes to beat Smith. In a dozen cam- paigns in public Jife, Gov. Smith has been beaten only once. in 1920, when he ran for the first time in opposition to Nathan L. Miller for re-election to the governorship. In 1922 he again op- posed Miller and won. Except for that one reverse, he has been perhaps the greatest campaigner New York has ever seen. piling up high majorities. The bright spot, as far as Republi- cans are concerned. is the fact that Gov. Smith’s lone defeat came in nl presidential year, when the Republi- cans. as custemary, swept the State for their presidential candidate and car- | ried the State ticket. In order to strengthen party chinery. the committee determined upon somethin; of a reorganization. The executive committee was abolished. ma- |and in its place was substituted an advisory council, consisting of all the | county chairmen, Charles D. Hilles, na- tional committeeman and former chair- man of the executive committee; Mrs. Charles H. Sabin, Sarah Schuyler But- ler and Jacob A. Livingston. Resolution Brings Uproar. | George K. Moyris, chairman, ex- plained the change as due to the belief | party management had become | too centralized. The “wet resolution” of the com- | mittee of th. National Republican Club | certainly succeeded in raising a de- | cided uproar. It was offered at a meet- | ing of the national affairs committee | of the club and supported urgently by | Representative Fairchild. chairman of a subcommittee in which the resolu- | tion had its origin. 1 Richard W.

Mr. Howell has taken personal caarge of the contest for. dele- | gates in many of the Western States, | including Oklahoma. 1 Following the Oklahoma State con- vention this week Howell contended | that Senator Reed would have Okla- homa's 20 votes in the national con- vention “as between Smith and Reed. The Reed Western manager. in spite of newspaper reports to the contrary. claims 14 of the 20 votes as favorable to Reed against Smith.
