KUY SUPPORT LD TO RODSEVELT Letter From Defeated Smith Backer Cites Correspond- ence—Charge Ignored. By the Associated Press York Times said today that John M. Callahan, member of the Democratic National Committee from Wisconsin, has sent to all delegates to the Demo- cratic National Convention copies of let- ters intended to show that the move- ment for Pranklin D. Roosevelt in the %:lh received aid from the Ku Klux n. The letters purport to be corre- spondence between Roosevelt. his pre- A. Farley, and organizers of the Roose- velt Southern Clubs. Callanan obtained B. Summers and C. W. Jones, of At- lanta, who are now suing the Gover- in his behaif. Callahan, running unpledged as a supporter of Alfred E. Smith in the Wisconsin primaries, was defeated by Roosevelt delegates. In an “open let- ter” accompanying the copies, he said “with such damaging information in circulation it will be impossible to win the election in November unless an- other candidate is selected at the con- vention in Chicago.” The attitude of the Roosevelt camp has been that neither Summers nor Jones has been connected with the Roosevelt movement for several months and that any implication that the Gov- ernor was aware of their alleged deal- ings with the Ku Klux Klan are too ridiculous to be dignified by a denial. Among the copies is one of a letter | purportedly from Roosevelt to Sum- mers, dated April 10, 1931, declaring that while the Governor appreciated the spirit in which Summers was acting, he would prefer to have Summers talk over the movement, with National Com- ) mitteeman John 8.

All discussion of the controversial prohibition plank centered about this idea as the first of the senatorial dele- gation departed for the National con- vention in Chicago.

N | By the Acsociated Press. ¥ PITTSBURGH, June 21.— James Francis Burke, general counsel for the | Republican National Committee, last night defended the prohibition plank adopted by the national convention in Chicago. The plank is “fair to both wets and | drys,” Burke asserted, ‘“because the major principles of the prohibitionists are preserved: the major demands of the anti-prohibiticnists are met.” Burke, who participated in the dra- matic debate which preceded adoption of the plank, said that upon his arrival from Chicago yesterday he found hun- dreds of letters on his desk, asking for interpretation of the plank. ~ “And I was prompted to answer im- mediately by Dr. Nicholas Murray But- criticism of the plank.” ired lawyer added with a Makes Violent Extremists. “One of the greatest evils in American politics is the tendency of partisans on'! public issues to jump at conclusions,” Burke said. “One of my reasons for opposing pro- hbition is the fact that it converts so many of its friends and its enemies alike into violent extremists “The deplorable animosities which mark the average discussion of this sub- ject render sane conclusions almost im- passible. “The sincerity of both sides is ad- mitted “I. personally. never believed th: cighteenth amendment belonged in the Constitution. I believed it to be a police power specifically reserved to the States | and never intended to be surrendered to the Federal Government “I believed it too rigid and far-reach* ing in its consequences to be lodged in the organic law from which. if the peo- ple changed their minds. it could not be disiodged without the greatest diffi- culty and the lapse of a long period of time. “Nevertheless it was placed there by Democrats and Republicans alike. ap- proved by 47 States of the Union an subsequently ratified by the United States Supreme Court Sceking Substitute. “We are now desling with the ques- tion of getting it out of the Constitution and insorting in its place the best sub- stitute “hat can be devised to deal with the p: blem which is vexing millions of Americans. who wish it sensibl JUNE 21, 1932. lican platform, let us face the facts squarely. “What have they been demanding the past six years? “First—That they be given a chance to determine by their votes whether the eighteenth amendment shall continue in force, or whether it shall be repealed alr:,n forever taken out of the Constitu- tion. “Second—that they shall be permit- ted to express their wishes through State constitutional conventions and not through State Legislatures. They have felt that as Legislatures are elected on a multiplicity of issues throughout the country, the prohibition question might be confused with or subordinated to other questions, and thus a clear- cut_verdict prevented. “Furthermore, they have felt that if the matter were to be submitted to State conventions, with no other ques- tions before them, the answer must be definite one way or the other. “This seemed to be a fair demand. although many prohibitionists op- posed it. Both Demands Are Met. “The platform granis both these de- mands in the plainest English. Conse- quently, if we triumph in November the people are assured of an oppor- tunity to vote on the repeal of the eighteenth amendment through the medium of State conventions free from all other issues. “The third question was whether, in the event of repeal. there should be some reasonable substitute to take the place of the present rigid prohibition amendment, or whether we should left, groping in the dark through blind controversy for a number of years to come, “Let us be practical. We must pro- ceed under the Constituticn. Nothing can be done without the consent of three-fourths of the States of the Union. “Since 13 States can prevent repeal of any character, it is absolutely nec- essary to offer some substitute to which 36 States are likely to agree if we are {to make any progress toward solution | In other words. the repealists must win victories in 36 States in order to change conditions, while all the prohibitionists | nced to do is to center all their efforts | in 13 States and induce them to stand i pat 1n order to prolong present deplor- able conditions indefinitely. | “No one wants that. | “Now we come to the question as to | how much authority Congress should | have in the matter of repeal, since this | unquestionably is a matter of national | scope and character. | “Ardent prohibitionists striggled at for | d | solvec as soon as possible in order that | it may be removed from the atmosphere of intemperate discussion “Now, since many so-called ‘wets’ | seem to be dissatisfied with the Repub- Hot-Water Heat Regular Price, $325 Special Offer, No Money Down!
