Alfred E. Smith, the vanquished “happy warrior,” returning last night to the State capital after his two-month political battle, recelved an ovation from Albany residents which brought tears to his eyes. A crowd jammed Union Station as his train pulled in at 7:31 o'clock and hundreds swarmed about the station’s doors to get a glimpse of him. As the governor stepped to the plat- | form from William F. Kenny's private car, the St. Nicholas, now sharing fame with the derby itself, a National Guard band struck up the battle song, “Side- walks of New York.” Makes Brief Talk. After a triumphal procession through the main wstreets, the governor, stand- ing on the veranda of the executive mansion, Mrs. Smith by his side, told the throng which milled over the spacious front lawn that, though he had had wonderful receptions all over the country, this welcome home to his adopted city was the warmest of them all. Full an hour before the upState special bearing the governor's car ar- rived crowds gathered about the station and at 7:30 the building was literally packed to the roof. As the governor and Mrs. Smith, their elder daughter, Mrs. John Warner, and Maj. Warner, superintendent of New York State police, stepped from the train they were greeted officially by Mayor John Boyd Thacher of Albany, who was accompanied by Mrs. Thacher. ‘Through a scene which approached pandemonium the governor's party, escorted by State and city police, strug- gled through the mob in the station, with familiar cries. of “Hello, Al!" “Your're all right, Al!” throated e the din. Waves New Derby. Outside all vehicular traffic was held up in Broadway, a blaze of red fire, as the crowds filled the street. Then with Mayor Thacher and Judge John J. Brady, newly elected to the Chil- dren’s Court, on each arm, the gov- ernor started on foot to the executive mansion. Mrs. Smith and Mrs. War- ner followed in a closed car. As the governor first saw the throng outside his eyes filled with tears. At the executive mansion Gov. Smith, in response to cries of “speech” from the crowd, spoke briefly, after Mayor Thacher expressed the gratitude of the people of Albany for the “distinguished manner in which Gov. Smith has con- ducted his campaign.” ‘The governor, waving a new brown derby, then said: % “It is with a deep sense of gratitude that I receive this reception. I have met with some splendid ovations in my travels over the country from East to ‘West during the past month. I re: ceived a greeting in New York City such as might be expected in my native town, but right here in Albany, my adopted city, I have found the warmest and most cordial reception of all “I will never forget Albany, and you may be sure that I will come back here as often as I get the opportunity. The band then struck up “The Star Spangled Banner,” and Gov. Smith held high the brown derby in gesturs of farewell.

DALLAS, Tex, November 9.— Politics cooled from a boil to a simmer in Texas today, though the warring factions of the Republican and Demo- cratic parties were as far from agree- ment as ever. Passing of the election robbed themyof their field of battle, how- ever, and there was little they could do about their differences beyond issuance of statements. Regular leaders, who championed Gov. Al Smith, scoffed at the demands from | the bolters that they resign their posts. The anti-Smith leaders continued to call for reorganization of the party, but the only way they can force such action is to defeat the present leaders in the next State convention, two years away. Regular leaders declared that the revolutionists would be unable to ac- complish_this. They pointed out that Herbert Hoover won in the State by ¢ few thousand votes and that his support came from 150,000 Republicans, plus the bolting Democrats. When the Repub- lican strength is subtracted from this total, ‘they said, the bolters' number would fall far bélow the total vote for Smith, which was made up of regula: Democratic ballots. Last available figures make Hoover's total 342956 and Smith's 327,671. One ! times. county has not been heard from, and in 103 the count is incomplete. ‘Waurzbach’s Lead Slim. Harry M.
