CAMPAIGNOUTLOOK PLEASING 70 SMITH Satisfied With Results of Western Tour—Is Taking Rest at Albany. Br the Assoclated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., October 3.—Satisfied with the resuits of his first campaign speaking tour and the State ticket se- Jected yesterday at Rochester, Gov. Smith was back home today loaking for a golf partrier. His first big task of the presidential drive to line up votes for the Smith- Robinson slate had been completed, and he was anxious for a rest—a visit among his numerous pets in the zoo back of the executive mansion and a round or two of his favorite pastime on the near- by Country Club links. When the Democratic presidential nominee will start out again on the stump will be decided some time this week. Many cities in the South, the Middle West and border States have been mentioned for speeches on the second trip, but only in a tentative way. A | definite schedule probably will not be forthcoming for several days or until the week end. Heartily Greeted on Return. Both at the railroad station and at the executive mansion, crowds turned out last night to welcome the nominee and his party home. Bearing torches and banners, reading: “Welcome Home, You Have Won the West, the East Is Yours.” a large gathering sent up a whoop when he alighted from his spe- cial train at the Union Station and fol- lowed his automobile on foot to his home, a mile away. Here anotiier crowd, holding red lights and torches aloft, sent up & big cheer when the touring car, with top down and the Gov. and Mrs. Smith in plam view. swept into the executive mansion driveway. Praises State Ticket. Coming from Rochester after at- tending the Democratic State con- vention, Gov. Smith said he could not have hoped for a better ticket, with Franklin D. Roosevelt, the man who nominated him for the presidency at Houston and four years ago at Madi- son Square Garden, heading the slate as_gubernatorial nominee. Relating_how he urged the former Assistant Secretary of the Navy to change his mind not to rum, the gov- ernor * sgid: “The - convention nominated Mr. Roosevelt with full assurance that he would take the post of State leader- ship I simply told him that the con- vention was unznimous for him, that the Democratic party needed him, and that I didn't see how he could refuse. Roosevelt “Good as Ever.” “Frank Roosevelt today mentally is as good as he ever was. Physically he 1s as good as he ever was. His whole trouble is in his lack of muscular con- trol of his lower limbs. But the answer is that a governor doesn’t have to be an acrobat. We do not elect him for his ability to do a double back- flip or a handspring.” The governor said he believed Roose- velt, who was Democratic vice presi- dential nominee in 1920, would conduct an active campaign, even though this, in his opinion, was unnecessary. “As I look 4t the two tickets,” he declared, “the people of the State will be able to make their decislon without much campaigning, but they will get it anyway.” —————— Democrats to Mieet. | ‘The Georgetown Smith-Robinson Club will meet in the Potomac Bank Build- | ing hall at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening.

D. C. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3. 1928 G.0.P.Women Cross} New Mexico Desert | For Registration By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 3.—A story of men and women who travel three days across country in horse-drawn in an election, sounds like the tale of ploneer days, but it is the story of this year's campaign in New Mexico as told today by Mrs. W. C. Reid of Albuquerque, Republican national committeewoman. Mrs. Reid, on her way to Wash- ington for a conference with part leaders, stopped for a short visit at ‘Western headquarters of the Repub- lican national committee. “We have just completed our State- wide registration,” she said. “It is one of the heaviest in the history of the State. More women registered than ever before, many traveling across the desert as far as as 70 miles to their nearest registration place.
