IR T AT SYRAGUSE FAR Does Not Tntend fo Make Politi- cal Speech Syracuse, N. Y., Aug. 30 (#—After his second speech since he was noti- fied of his selection as democratic presidential candidate, Gov. Smith today was the central figure of a gathering of state politicians here to name a new party chairman and also the daily throng that is turning out for the New York state fair. A meeting of the democratic state committee was called for early in the day formally to ratify the selec- tion of M. William Bray, of Utica. as chairman to succeed Lieutenant | Governor Edwin Corning, resigned Gov. Smith had expected to attend, but had declared he would have nothing to say on state politics at this stage of the game. Behind th. scenes there had been some 4 t an entire state ticket would be cussed, but this could not be con- firmea An appearance at the state fair later in the day, with a brief non- political speech depending on the weather, was all that confronted the governor before his return to Al- ban to spend the rest of the of state. His presidential campaign plans still are indefinite and he in- s b= will have nothing to reveal about his speech-making tour until ee distinet routes mapped is finally chosen. ¢ several hundreds of- v York state f: or- ntry club, Gov- to his promise talk of hale hour to costs of local gover: t and an appeal for a reorganization of town and county control groups t2 bring about a reduction of taxes The affair was the dinner” given by Jerome D.

Introduced by Dr. Albert R. Mann dean of the College of Agriculture of Cornell university, both as governor | ond as “the nominee of his party for the presidency.” the governor was greeted with a round of ap- plause as he arose and began by one of his favorlte stories about his consultation with a throat night at the Onon- |t when it came to preserving the voice. Then he took up in detail the cost of local government and how he thought it could be curtailed. Much of the speech along this line had been said before. The governor recalled having told a group of farm leaders several years ago that he knew “what is the matter with agriculture as well as everybody else around the table,” but that he did not know “how to cure it.” He was talking of state conditions at the time and he also recalled having said he was open to suggestions, was “willing to sit down with anybody who does know how to cure it and help work it out,” and if it required legislation, recom- mendations of a committee would assist matters. This thought in a measure was |similar to that expressed by Gover- nor Smith in his acceptance speech, but he did not elaborate upon it last night Besides recommending an over- auling of local administrative ma- record at Albany as to appropria- tions, attacked those who fought his program in the legisla- {the evil at its root—the local government.” He blamed no partieular be remedied, but asserted patronage. causes of it,” he saMd. “You wil appropriation bill.” this was scason of bun his contentions. he referred to a ho ature having reduced hi | cent hasized as the “‘great step required to be taken’ New York in order to prevent th “ever-mounting n cost e localities, by the counties, by an over hav | tions and duplicati | time, money and ergy."” READ HERALD CLASSIFTED AD FOR BEST RESULTS | Driveit right out of new discovery FEVER :iucciss | Simost Tnste neutralizes pollen poisoni: vhen he was told that William J. v a class by hi Tone Quality, Selectivit Tanny syes and nose, sneeri | FnnY Y moet white you wait. - No nareo- e o drugs.
