CHOIGE INVOLVED :Many Factors Other Than| Financial Guarantees Will Influence Parties. RPN By the Associated Press. The highest bidding cities may fail to be selected next year as sites of | he Democratic and Republican na- - tional conventions. . New factors—economic, political, | “;climatic, accessibility and accommo- 2 dations—are being viewed by Demo- | Zcratic and Republican leaders alike as | & basis for considering 1936 sites. Although selections will not be made antil the national committees of the ‘two major parties meet, probably | next January, the possibilities have | been discussed informally by commit- teemen and party leaders. With Atlantic City and Philadelphia | already in the field for the conven- tions, other cities are expected to put 4n their bids within the iext few months. | Generally the discussions revolve about Midwestern cities. Leaders in ‘both parties concede .there is little | ‘tikelihood of holding conventions either too far East or too far West. Each party organization would like & $200,000 guarantee, at least. but other factors, both political and finan- ‘eial, must be considered. Transporta- tion costs are said to eliminate West Coast cities, just as partisan and cli- | matic factors are believed to exclude Southern cities. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

The association asked continuance of the benefit payments and the farm relief program in general and asked Secretary Wallace to announce im- mediate retention of the 12-cent loan | on cotton.

Citing an increase in Japanese im- | ports of cotton goods, which was placed at “30,000 per cent” in Janu- ary of this year over January, 1934, the resolution expressed to President Roosevelt “tremendous concern” over the situation and offered every facility at the command of the operators in order that the “full facts be made known and corrective taken with the least possible delay.” Thomas H.
