September 8.— Three of Gov. Smith's close friends, on whom he depends for.political counsel. @re at the executive mansion for.the weck end, and another was expected to- /night, to aid in the mapping out of campalign strategy - prior to the de- parture of the Democratic presidential nominee a week hence on his first stumping tour. The group is made up of Joseph M Proskauer, former justice of the New York State Supreme Court; Mrs. Belle Moskowitz, in charge of Democrati campaign publicity; her husband, Dr. Henry M. Moskowitz, a biographer of the governor, and Herbert H. Lehman. the Democratic campaign director df} finance. who' sent ‘word today that he Would be in Albany tonight. | | Important Decisians Expected. | Decisions of importance are cxpected | to be rcached at the series of lnl‘m'mull conferences which ‘were to get under | ¢ in earnest with Lehman's arrival. ¥» managed one of the presidential | Tominee’s subefnatorial campaigns. Although he planned to devote con- | siderable time over the week end to aping up of his fight for the. ncy. Gov. Smith was in the mood alss for scme rest and relaxation. When he met newspaper men at-the tive mansion at noon today for press conference he was in golf togs, prepared to gct out in the supshine @uring the afternoon for x| Yound or two of exercise. : At the outset of the press interview the governor made public an exchange of letters between Clarence A.

Asks Information. In reply Gov. Smith called on Barnes to-come to Albany and point out the| pool’s headquarters to him or give him information leading to his ‘statement that it operates in the shadow of the capitol. During the press conference, the nominee declined to comment on the | statement of Herbert Hoover that the | signing, during the Harding and Cool- { idze administrations, of the Washington arms treaties, the Dawes reparation plan and the Kellogg renunciation of war pacts constituied the greatest.con- tribution toward world . peace of any nation . since the .signing of . the Ver- gailles treaty. An inquiry. prompted by a press dis- patch that Mayor Walker of New York was seeking to arrange a meeting be- tween the governor and Senator .Narris of Nebraska, the Republican Independ- en', who has not declared. himself as between Hoover .and .Smith, brought -om the Democratic - standard bear‘: statement that he knew of.no su! move. Talks on Wildebrandt Attack. The Democtatic nominee said he had not _read press accounts of the attack made on him in an address to Method- is* Episcopal ministers and laymen in Ohio by Mrs. Mabel Walker Wildes brandt, an assistant attorney general, who nas been active .in the Hoover campa'gn. “What did she say?” he inquired. “Siw said you were Tammany reared | and a nullifier.” he was told. “T've heard that before.” “And she urged the ministers to speak against you from their pulpits,” another | Teporter advised him. “That's the first time I knew they| needed an invitation,” the governor | came back, as he dropped the subject. !

JOHN ROBINSON HONORED Tablet Unveiled in Leyden Father of Pilgrim’ Movement. LEYDEN. Holland, September 8 (@), —The memory of John Robinson, called the “father” of the pilgrim movement to America, and pastor of the English Church at Leyden between 1609-25, was honored here today in the unveiling of a bronze tablet in the baptistry of the Petershirk. The tablet is inscribed: “His broad tolerant mind guided and developed the religious life of the pilgrims of the Mayflower.” It was given by the General Socie to | doin off the Bay Islands and the | nominated. | governor. | crats insist this was a tactical error | classmate of the explorer at Bowdoin | College.

Boat whis autemobile ~ horns shrieked while crowd lined the wharf to cheer the party when it landed. After a welcome at the wharf the| members were escorted to the center of | the town by a band.

Comdr. MacMillan said the expedi- tion had bsen a success from every angle and announced that he intended to return to Labrador next year to con- tinue the work. He said the party began the work of surveying and chart- ing bays and harbors of northern | Labrador, a task which would take i | least 10 yeats to be completed. | | Hails Accomplishments. “We suffered no hardship and accom: plished more than we had hoped.” h2 said. “Our quarters at Bowdoin Harbor had all the modern conveniences.

Langford of Chicago, who traveled more than 2,000 miles by dog team at- tending to the medical needs of the Es- kimos. He pulled more than 2000 toeth for the natives and performed kin grafting operation under trying quarters An Eskimo whose arm had been torn by a shotgun wound was ctherized on a kitchen table and while other members of the MacMillan party acted as 2t- tendants, Dr. Langford grafted skin from the Eskimo’s side to his arm. Sharot Roy of Chicago, biologist. brought back a large collection of fos- sils from Silliman's fossil mound at | Frobisher Bay. Arthur C. Rueckert of Chicago, ar- tist and taxidermist, captured many | fish and he had them in captivit; while he painted pictures of them as they changed their colors during the casons. Strange Tribe Studied. The Nascopie Indians, a little known tribe of the interior of Northern Labra- dor, were studied by Duncan Strong, anthropologist, who spent six wecks liv- ing with them in their lodges and fraveling with them. He said they were one of the most primitive races in the world with a language resembling a Greek dialect. Hg said he became so friendly with many of them that they moved their quarters near to the ex- pedition’s quarters, where he talked, with them through an interpreter and | learned much of their history and| customs. The members of the expedition will | leave for their homes after arrangin? | their affairs here. MacMillan will visit with his sister at Freeport and t 20 to his home at Provincetown, Mas | G. 0. P. EXPECTING ORGANIZATION TO | WIN CONNECTICUT| _(Continued from Fi balloting that Lonergan was not to be stopped. 4 Both Republican and - Democratic conventions have ‘left their sore spots. | ‘The rejection of the organization can- didate, Butler, by thHe Democrats has not tended to cement an organization already torn with internal dissention. Many delegates, however, claim that Lonergan will make a stronger race for the Senate than Butler, had he been Pallotti Left Out. | The Republicans left off their ticket | this year Francis A.

The Republicans in their State plat- form declare for “law enforcement,” al though their keynote speaker at th State convention, Representative Schuy- ler Merritt, boldly announced he re- gretted the stand taken by Mr. Hoover in opposition to the repeal of the | eighteenth amendment. | The Democrats put_through a really wet plank in their platform, although they declared, too, for enforcement of the laws. The State platform measures up to the ideas of Gov. Smith on ‘the liquor question. See Fighting Chance. | Some Demotratic leaders here for the State convention, which completed its Jabors today, frankly admit that they have little better than a fighting | Cchance to carry the State; that the odds today are really against them. But they are taking their fighting chance in both hands and are moving to make the best of it, relying on the enthusi- asm for Gov. Smith to offset what they lack in the matter of organization. Most impartial observers here take the view that the Republicans, with | their more perfect organization and the appeal which they will make to the voters on the tariff issue, have the best of the race. They say that the Republican majority will be consider- ably reduced this year, and that it will not run higher than 25.000. Some of{ them put it as low at 10,000. But in the main, they see a Republican victory for_various reasons. ! Connecticut has been in the Repub- | lican column in national elections for | years. President Coolidge had a lead over his Democratic opponent, John W. | Davis, in 1924, of approximately 136,000 votes, and over the combined Davis and | Lafolette vote of 94,000 votes., Presi-| dent Harding four years earlier ran up | a lead of 109,000 votes over Cox, Demo- cratic nominee. Charles Evans Hughes carried the State against President | ‘Wilsen in 1916 despite the “he kept us out of war” slogan of the Democrats, by 7.000 votes. Wilson won the State in 1912, but by a much less vote than | the combined vote of Taft and Roose- velt, the leaders of the Republican fac- tions that year. Grover Cleveland in | 1892 was the last Democrat to carry the | State in a presidential election, and Mr. | Cleveland carried Connecticut in 1888 | and in 1884 by very narrow margins. Since Cleveland's day, the tariff issue of the Republicans has become increas- ingly more potent in Connecticut elec- | tions, for Connecticut, with its many manufacturing interests. has been es- | Mountains, Germany, there are some- | times as many as 4.000 motor cyclists ‘who ride up for & week end trip. lature has only a handful of Democrats | in both houscs, and the entire dclega- tion in the House of Reprecsentatives at Washington is Republican. Has Strong Friends. Mr. Hoover has his strong friends in Connecticut as he has in other States. But he is not as widely known to the voters as is Gov. Smith. Indeed, it is no secret that Republican leaders of | Connecticut, with a few exceptions, were strong for the renomination of President_Coolidge or for the nomina- tion of Charles Evans Hughes, believ-| ing that either one of them would make a stronger run against Gov. Smith than Mr. Hoover. Under the leadership of National Committeeman Roraback, the Connecticut delegation at Kansas City stood out till the end for the renomi- nation of President Coolidge. But there is no doubt now but what the State organization and Mr. Roraback are firmly behind Mr. Hoover and will give ;‘l’lleh' best efforts to garry the State for m. If noise and enthusiasm could elect Gov. Smtih, he is as sure of carrying Connecticut over his Republican oppo- nent as anything in this world could be, judged “y the spectacles presented in'the Republican and Democratic State conventions. The Republicans met in the Hyperion Theater, across the street from the Yale campus. It was a digni- fied, busines ““:e affair, wtih polite handclapping, and a few, a very few, cheers. It ran off according to form and specifictaions, without a real hitch, If there was any sorencss, it was un- der the surface, and the organization had at all times perfect control. The keynote speaker, Representative Mer- ritt, delivered a well constructed ad- dress, with jibes here and there at Gov. Smith, vhom he characterized as a “good_spender,” pointing out that un- | der Gov. Smtih’s administration the public debt of New York State has trebled and reached hundreds of mil- lions of dollars, while the Republican State _administrtaion of Connecticut had wiped out the State debt, although | going ahead with many public improve- | ments, His references to Mr. Hoover and to President Coolidge bought applause, but nothing tumultuous in the widest lati- tude of expression. Mr. Merritt made no attempt at oratory. He got right down to brass tacks to convince the voters of the State that if they wanted | business to continue -they gust have | a Republican administrtaion of national | and State affairs. But what a time these Democrats did | have. ‘They took their convention, like good fighting Democrats, to the arena, where the prize fights and boxing matches are staged regularly. They had | a band parade beforehand and’ then they listened to a keynote speech by Kenneth Wynne, a New Haven attor- ney with a gift for oratory. How they | howled when he pitched into the Re-| publicans and praised Gov. Smith. The keynote specch was an Al Smith speech. | Mr. Wynne rang the changes again and again on the Smith p rsonality “In this election,” he said, “the soul of America is in the balance. Elect Hoover and the deadening influences of | smugness and reaction will dull that soul as by a powerful narcotic. Elect Smith and the forces of light and trutia and sympathy for the humblest citizen in the Republic will make that soul radiant in the glory of a better day.” Mr. Wynne insisted that Gov. Smith, in his speech accepting the presidential nomination, had laid down a perfectly feasible and readily understood plan for amending the dry laws. | “First of all,” said the keynoter, “he would have the Volstead act amended 50 as more reasonably and scientifically to define an intoxicating beverage. He | would also hrve the eighteenth amend- ment amended so as to permit the States to control manufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors_within their owa borders, after the Canadian example, and with the saloon remaining forever defunct. Here is a plan at once explicit and constructive. It could be worked out within the law aud the Constitu- tion. The governor’s program is the most clear cut and positive that has come from either side in this presi- dential election.” | | was such a wonderful note I wish she | |sa i 1 of the country, are from correspondents |a gang of Detroit racketeers, who im- | prisoned him in a small room of a New {friends to learn the identity | tion will hold its meeting Monday eve- tion foel T just ought to answer them.

The letters, which come from all parts in all stations of life, range from advice about how to conduct her husband's presidential campaign to queries about the health of the monkeys in the zoo hat is housed in the back yard of the mansion.

Lyons, president of the| Newark Building Trades Council, today | denied reports he had been betrayed to York apartment house, seared his body | with hot irons and otherwise tortured him, seeking $100,000 ransom. The stories, which had their origin among friends of Lyons, were cir- culated when he was not seen around his usual places, and after John Bell, bartender and former friend of Lyons, had been attacked and severely beaten. “These reports are absolute false~ hoods,” Lyons said. “I have been over- worked and needed a re and went to a secluded spot to get it.” Lyons, according to reports given by his friends to local newspapers, had been whisked away from an apartment house here and faken to New York, | where he was ordered to obtain the ransom money. When his reported predicament was | discovered, it was said, $10,000 was raised and accepted by the kidnapers. Bell, who was found lying unconscious in a sccluded street Thursday, be-| lieved Lyons was wealthy, the reports had it. and it was believed he had been abducted by the labor Icader's of .those holding Lyons captive.
