SVITH TALK FAILS 10 STIR HIS PARTY Valedictory to “Formulate‘:' and Adopt” Program Viewed | i as Almost Impossible. ‘ BY FREDERIC WILL'AM WILE. Gov. Smith's valedictory recommenda- tion that the Democratic party proceed to “formulate and adopt” an organiza- tion program for submission to Con- gress signally fails to arouse the en- thusiasm of responsible Democratic leaders. Their opinion, as summarized by one of the most promlnrnt of them, is that Smith Pmposes ‘something nsy 1o say, but almost impossible to do.” What the leader in question means 15 that the Democratic party at the pres- | ent moment—and not particularly as a | result of the 1928 election—is a house o0 divided against itself that anything in the nature of a “program” such as Gov. Smith urges is not within the rcalm of practical politics. On the four or five public questions now before or about to be brought be- fore Congress, Democrats are almost | hopelessly at odds. If the party wanted to revert to the tariff as a paramount i and essayed to get anywhere with islatively, things have to originate = House of Representatives. a minority group, the Democrats der the rules can do nothing except indulge in a plous caucus gesture. The Senate Democrats might re-pass the McMaster resolution in favor of tariff reduction, but it could only be re- adopted, as in the first instance, with Repubiican Progressive votes. That would not be an essentially “Democratic | program.” | Boulder Dam Issue. | Boulder Dam is now the unfinished business of the Senate. The basic ques- tion at stake in that connection is| whether the Colorado River project | hall be carried out as public works, or | by a private corporation with wers under the water power act. The Demo- crats are far from being a unit on either side of the controversy there in- volved. No party “program” could be | put forth with any show of unanimity. There is equal difference of Democntlc* op nion on the subject of the Great| -St. Lawrence waterway. The! P e Democrats from the farm- ing West are heart and soul for the Eastern | Democrats like Senator Copeland of | New York, for example, are opposed to ! it. It would take a conjurer to divise & Democratic “program” on that issue. On the eternal matter of farm relief | the Democrats are just as split among themsclves as the Republicans are. Whenever farm relief is enacted into| law, either during the waning weeks of the Coolidge administration or during | the Hoover administration, it will be| fashioned and voted by Democrats plus Republicans, or vice versa. Nothlnq the shape of & Demornuc pmgrlm on agriculture is held to be feasible. Farm relief has friends on both sides of the aisles in House and Senate, and | would have to be legislated by a_ bi- pariisan fusion. MecNary-Haugen hflls passed by that| St. Lawrence scheme, but have all had to be method. The Kellogg anti-war pact is soon to l become the dominant issue in the Sen- | ate. Most Democratic leaders are for | ratification, and would hesitate to see tha treaty rejected simply for the pur- pose of winning a victory for a Demo- cratic “party” m. There does not seem to leading members of the mi- nority at this moment any foreign issue around which the entire Democratic party could be suscessfully rallied. Deplore Constructive Trend. While on the whole his brother Dem- | gcrats think that Gov. Smith made an “inspiring” farewell address to the party and doubtless fired some imistic souls with hope, there seems a tendency to denlure the “construetive” note on harped. Smith said the party t not be content to be an “obstrucs tive opposition,” but must work out and_ work for some definite purposes. Leaders are very much afraid this may give a handle to critics who always have elleged that in showing up the oil scan- ¢a's, the Daugherty affair and other happenings during the contemporary Republican regime the Democrats were merely playing “politics.” Smith's language, it is pointed out, is open to the smpuuuon that he means to rebuke the Democratic leaders who have been 80 ccnspicuously to the fore in recent Senzte history, like Senators Walsh (Montana) and Wheeler. The gover- nor may have had no such intent in his | mind. But there is, it is thought, the distinct sugeestion of a reprimand in the way he put matters. No other view is encountered, among leading Democrats returning to House end Senate offices from the late war, than that Alfred E. Smith is finished es national standard-bearer of the party. They are confident he realizes that as clearly as mf y. No suc- cessor to him is in sight at the mo- ment. Were Franklin Roosevelt steadily on his feet, he, as gubernatorial win- ner in New York State in the teeth of a Hoover victory there, would be looked upon as logical heir to the crown knocked from Smith's head. Many think he is, despite his physical lizability. i Y (copyrisnt, 1038) e AMERICAN INDUSTRIES ADVISED TO ORGANIZE Ev the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, November 15.— The need for industries to get together and rid themselves of harmful and wasteful practices is more urgent today than ever before, Dr. Hugh P. Baker, Washington, manager of the trade as- sociation department of the United States Chnmg:l‘ of Commerce, declared yesterday before the convention of the | National Coal Association. Dr. Baker recommended trade asso- clations as the medium for industries getting acquainted with each other and establishing confidence among those in the same line of business S. A. Taylor, Pittsburgh, former pres- ident of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, gave the convention delegates statistical information showing how the use of oil, gas and the improved as well as economical use of coal had reduced the consumption of coal around 415,- 000,000 tons for 1‘925, Smith Admirers Pay Fare to Get Past Station Gates While thousands stood patiently against the concourse fence at Union Station yesterday after- noon to get a glimpse of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, when he stopped over here on his way to Biloxi, Miss., more resourceful hundreds buught 30-cent tickets to Alex- andria and went through the gates to become part of the crowd which nearly mobbed the Demo- cratic standard-bearer when he alighted from his special car. Long before the train pulled into the station the crowd, two or three deep, lined the concourse fence, and many tried to get past the gate guards and special police stationed along the fence. Then one woman conceived the idea of buying a ticket to Alexan- dria to get inside the gate. She told a friend. The friend told an- other friend, and soon there were long lines in front of the ticket windows, with Alexandria as their destination. 6 dinner plltel, cups, 6 saucers, 6 bread and butter plates, 6 fruit saucers, 1 meat dish and 1 vege- table dish.
