Costello, Democratic national committeeman for the District of Columbia, the Women's Democratic Educational Council has protested to John J. Raskob, national Democratic chairman, against the “un- democratic, unsatisfactory and unfair” | method of selecting national commit- teemen for this jurisdiction. | Mrs. Clara Wright Smith, president of the council, states in a formal state- | ment today that Costello “has indicated | his purpose to dictate that the dele- gation to the National Democratic Con- | vention to be elected at the District of Columbia primary shall be pledged | to Gov. Roosevelt.” Objects to Dictation. Objecting to any “dictation to the | District of Columbia primary,” Mrs, | Wright said the council is not unfriend- |1y to Roosevelt, but has no candidate of its own and is “non-partisan in respect to the issue involved in the primary election.” Mrs. Wright sald the petition to Raskob urged “prompt and effective action to insure Democrats of the Dis- wrict of Columbia a free, fair and full opportunity and guaranty for their par- ticipation in the selection of members of the local Democratic National Com- mittee and of delegates to the Demo- cratic National Convention.” Jouett Shouse, executive secretary of the Na- |l10nl1 Committee, acknowledged receipt of the petition and promised considera- | tion, she stated. | Rights of Voters. In her statement Mrs. Wright said the | council “stands for the rights of the qualified voters in the District of Co- | lumbia primary to frame their own | declaration of principles, and if a | pledged delegation is sent to Chicago to select their own candidate.” It ob- | jects to selection of a slate by the Cen- | ral Committee “as expressing the will of the primary, regardless of the pri- mary vote.” ‘The council, she declared, would “de- fend the primary against the possibility of manipulation of the ballots by a se- cret_disposal of the ballot boxes,” and would “demand that a ballot box be set up in every one of the 22 districts into which the District of Columbia is at present divided for the purposes of the Democratic primary, and that the count of the votes shall be conducted under conditions that will make cer- tain that the will of the primary is re- corded.” | "Mr. Costello is recovering at Ward- man Park Hotel from a severe iliness and could not be reached today for comment on Mrs. Wright's statement.
