DENCGRATS LAD NEW DEAL POLE Representative Woodrum Is Cheered in Predicting Roosevelt Win. By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Va. September 14.— Cheering vociferously Representative Clifton A. Woodrum'’s prediction of & Virginia delegation instructed for Roosevelt and his nomination and re-election in 1936, Young Democrats of Virginia tonight ended their an- nual convention with the naming of Fred B. Greear of Wise and Mrs. George C. Walker of Lynchburg as their members of the National Com- mittee of Young Democrats. Alexandria was recommended to the Executive Committee as the next con- vention city. Congressman Woodrum, New Deal leader in the Virginia delegation, de- | parted from his prepared text and left the microphone and walked to the front of the stage as he warmed to his subject in praising the New Deal and the President. Asserting the people of America had seen the | dawning of a new day, he said: “There is one thing definite and eertain about the whole movement. They will never turn back to the leaders of the old order who betrayed them.” G. 0. P. “Misrule” Condemned. ‘The Young Democrats frequently. interrupted the Roanoke Representa- tive with applause, and after his ad- dress, passed resolutions condemn- ing “Republican misrule,” expressing “boundless admiration” for President Roosevelt and congratulating the Vir- ginia Senators and Representatives for “fidelity to duty” and for the manner in which they represented the State. Congressman Woodrum asserted the program termed the New Deal was greater than any man or any party| and said “success is as inevitable in this battle for economic freedom and | equality of opportunity as it was in | 1776.” | In predicting a Roosevelt-instructed delegation from Virginia next year, he departed from his text to add his | belief that the convention would act | in great peace and harmony and with unanimity. The convention adopted a resulu-! tion presented by the Committee on | State and Legislative Affairs requir- | ing trial justices to be attorneys ex- | cept in case of reappointment, but | tabled a resolution which would have permitted persons to vote after the payment of the poll tax last assess- able, instead of for three years. Nominations Not Recommended. The Nominating Committee de- | elined to make recommendations and urged that they be submitted from | the floor. Greear, who is Common- | wealth's attorney of Wise County, | was elected national committeeman | over John D. Neff of Staunton by & vote of 382 to 284. Mrs. Walker had no opposition for national com- mitteewoman. They succeed John Galleher of Leesburg, who is the State president for another year, and Mrs. Galleher, recently named vice presi- dent of the national organization. Mrs. Galleher addressed the con- vention and presented Mrs. James H. ‘Wolff of Utah, director of the wom- an’s division of the Democratic Na- tional Committee. Mrs. Wolff, urging the young women to aid in interest- ing the older women in politics, said, “If the home is to be safeguarded from the perils of economic depres- sion and war” women must live up to the responsibilities and obligations of citizenship. She said Roosevelt was a “true disciple of the Jeffer- sonian principle of equal justice to all and special privilege to none.” Tonight there was a reception in honor of national officers and a *grand final ball.” CUBA TO GIV.E MEDALS TO VETERANS OF 1898 Men Now Out of Service May Apply—Congressional Approval Necessary for Others.

I personally asked | his majesty to place me in an in-y fantry command instead of aviation, where I was a mere servant of a French flying chief. “After the Emperor became satis- fied with my ability he made me a commander of 5,000 men at Ambo. I was never demoted. “They wanted to send me to Wal- lega to train recruits but I refused. 1t is a prodigious lie that the Emperor told me Ethiopia hadn’t enough air- planes for me to crash. I am favored by his majesty, respected by high of- ficials and loved by the people.” Julian is & native of the West Indies. | \CHILDREN OFFERED i FREE VACCINATIONS !

By a Staff Correspondent of The Star, HYATTSVILLE, Md., September 14. —A colored man was sought by Prince Georges County police tonight as the slayer of Harry Hudson, 27, of 7 Sib- ley avenue, whose skull-crushed body was found in a ravine in East Hyatts- ville yesterday. Meanwhile another colored man, arrested this afternoon, was being questioned but officers said he had no connection with the crime and would be released. Police learned two men, one of them colored, were seen fighting near the spot where Hudson's body was found. Sergt. Ralph Brown and Policemen Howard Slater and Warren E. Peake, who are investigating, said they were “reasonably sure” of the identity of the slayer. They are not certain what caused the fight but are working on the theory that Hudson was fatally in- jured by a club improvised from the branch of a tree. The officers say the fight occurred between 4 and 5 o'clock Thursday. The ravine in which Hudson's body was found is near a spur line of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, and is not far from his home. Hudson was single and unemployed. An autopsy disclosed he died of a fractured skull. An inquest will be held Tuesday night. Funeral services will be held in the Gasch undertaking establishment, | Hyattsville, at 2 o'clock Monday after. | noon. Burial will be in Fort Lincoln | Cemetery.
