News of the World By Associated Press ESTABLISHED 1870 RASKOB IS CHOSEN AS HEAD OF DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE BY CHIEF OFFICIALS TODAY Switch to General Mo- tors’ Head Due to Need of Widely Known Business Man at Helm of Party. Nominee Has Pleasant Talk With Senator Reed Who Says He Will Keep on Working for the Democrats. New York, July 11 (P)—Al- though John J. Ra lob, who was chosen today as the new chairman of the demoecratic committee, served qn President Wilson's industria!’ conference n 1919, he is listed as a repub- = sketch of his life ‘Who's Who in America.” New Yerk, July 11 (P—John J. Raskob, chairman of the finance committee of Genera! Motors, today was named chairman of the demo- cratic national committee. Raskob was nominated by Josiah Marvel of Delaware and the nomina- tion was seconded by Norman E. Mack of Buffalo. Immediately after his appoint- mer vhich he said t he was not a politician and had never been af- filiated with any political party. “I should like to pledge every speaker and worker for our cause,” the statement read, “to constructive policies. Mud slinging, so-called, al- ways makes more enemies than friends. In our usiness life today we succeeded by constructive work and by having better goods to sell than our competitors. “There is every reason why the democratic party should follow this eostructive business policy in this campaign. The country is in need of leadership—real and fearless. “And if we impart to the people of other states the knowledge that the r-~ple of the s*ate of New Yerk have of Alfred Smith and the peo- ple of Arkansas have of Joseph Robinson, then their election in No- vember will be assured.” Prior to a meeting here of the democratic national committee, set for this afternoon, the presidential nominee declined to discuss reports that Raskob would be named chair- man and in this capacity would manage the campaign. Intimates of the governor declared he had de- cided on Raskob and that his pref- erence would be disclosed to the| committee Mrs. Ross Linkea With Mr. Raskob’s expected ap- pointment was linked the name of Mrs. lie Tayloe Ross, former gov- ernor of Wyoming, for the now va- cant post of vice chairman of the national committee. The slate also included Colonel Herbert H. Leh- man: New York banker, as campaign director of finance. Lehman man- aged the last of Smith's gubernator- 1al campaigns, Belief in certain quarters was that Senator Peter Goelet Gerry of Rhode Island was Smith's prefercnce for committee chairman’and his report- ed switch to Raskob was interpret- ed as a concession on Smith’s part to the advice of political friends that 1t would be best to have 2 man wide- 1y known in the business world at the campaign helm Sees Robinson The governor who came to the, eity last night by motor from Al-i bany, had a general talk on the poli- | tical situation after his arrival with| Senator Robinson and Franklin D. | Roosevelt who placed him in nomg-| ination at Houston. This morning he had as his breakfast guest Sen- ator James A. Reed of Missour! whom he had invited here to dis- cuss the political outlook. Both Smith and Reed declared later that their talk had been gen- eral and that nothing definite was| discussed as to the part the Missouri senator will play in the campaign. Pleasant Talk Reed saild his talk vith the nomi- nee had been pleasant and had nog§| touched on any particular subject. | Reed added that it was unnecessary for the governor or anyone else to ash him whether he would work for the party’s success in the campaign, as he plainly had shown a willing- ness to do his utmost. “I've heen working for the demo- cratic party since T was 18 years 014" remarked the white-haired Missourian, “and I intend to go aa working for it.” Attack Hoover Reed launched into an attack on Herbert Hoover, declaring he did not believe the American people were ready to name as their president =o “shifty” a man who he added, had been converted to a republican over- night “so that he could get into a republican cabinet and when he lit there. was running for president.” As fime for the meeting of the national committee drew near the corridor gossip began to crystallize with the name of Jhon J.

(Special to the Herald) Plainville, July 1l—Another ver- sion of the drowning accident at Thompson's brook Monday afternoon was given out today by Constable Clesson H. Saunders, who has made a thorough investigation of the cir- cumstances surrounding the death of Mario Morante, 14 years old. Credit for rescuing those who were saved in what almost became a quadruple drowning 1s given by this later ver- sion to Harold Thompson, 26, and Miss Mildred Orvis, 20, but the fact that young Morante gave his life in attempting to save a friend is un- questioned. Mike Jerolomy got beyond depth, according to Constable Saun ders, and Mario went to his rescue. Mike had completely lost his senses in his peril and seized Mario, carry- ing him under. Then Mario's olde brother, William Morante, dove in for the pair and also went down in Jerolomy's clutch. A third attempt- ing rescuer, Earl Orvis, 16, suffered a like fate. Then Mildred Orvis plunged in and succeeded in breaking brother loose from the tangled mass of bodies in the water, dragging him to shore, Harold Thompson, fol- lowing her, grabbed Jerolomy by the head and pulled him to the bank.

Their discovery on an ice floe about 20 miles from the Krassin, which has been battering its way toward the stranded Nobile group, was reported today by the Russian aviator, Chukhnovsky, attached to this ship, who circled over them five times, but was unable to land near them. ‘While two of the party energeti- cally waved flags at the Russian filer, the third lay motionless on the ice, suggesting the possibility that he was dead.

They had been tramping their weary way over the ice from near Foyn Island, for forty-three days. A Russian airman, Chukhnevsky, who took off from the ice breaker Krassin this morning, sighted the wayfarers from afar. About the same time the castaways saw the plane and two of them waved fran- tically with tattered flags. The third was lying down. One lging Down. Chukhnovsky ecircled over them five times, seeking a landing, but was forced to return to the Krassin. He returned to the marooned men this afternoon. They are located at | 80.42 north latitude, 25.45 east lon- gitude, a distance of about 20 miles from where the Krassin is held up by the heavy ice. The Russian airman’s efforta will be devoted to finding a landing spot or picking some route whereby addi-" tional ald may be speedily cent to Dr. Maimgren and his companions. It is possible that other planes have flown over the men, as they appear- ed as little specks against the glist- ening ice flelds. Atmospheric con- ditions today, however, were more suitable for recennaissance. Thrills Rescuers. The discovery of the castaways has sent a thrill through the hearts of those aboard the Krassin which for one month has been steadily smasing through the ice floes in & determined effort to reach the Ne- bile group of five men off Foyn Is- land, at the eame time searching for the others who had disappeared.
