SITH TURNS T0 STATES AFFAIRS “"i N. Y, ‘Sept.’ 4—(AP)— With official announcement -of ernor Smith's dates and places for his first dash in the presidential race only a few days off, the démocratic nominee turned to his today for the first time since his notification to catch up on state affairs. i i All Albany is asking when and where its adopted son expects to start his spe campaign, but the answer, his iates say, will not 1ordu:ommu‘(nr at least two more s. Meanwhile, the Governor will attend to State business while relying on the national committee of the party 0 keep him informed of the national situation and on local leaders to ad- vise him as to the shaping up of the State organization. Organization Forming Latest reports to the presidenti-ll mominee from his advisers in New York headquarters show that organi- zation on a pational scale, with rep- gesentatives in each State working among various eclements of the elec- torate, is rapidly taking form. Sep- arate departments have been set up to take charge of missionary work among the farmers, first voters, women and naturalized citizens. ‘The farm department will send rep- sesentatives only into States where the agricltural problem is of major importance, but every State is ex- pected to be reached by a national agent who will work with the State’s first voters, women, naturalized citi- zens, lawyers and college leaders and Smith clubs, As for the State campaign organi- zation, in which the Governor is keenly interested, headquarters were to be officially opened in New York City today by M. William Bray of Utica, the new State chairman, and work immediately begun looking to an intensive fight for victory for the State ticket. Mr. Bray, it is under- stood, will remain in charge at New York until up-state offices at Albany and Syracusc are opened when he will take over control of the latter and leave James A. Farley, sccretary of the State committee, the director in the metropolis. Urges Speed Only last week, Governor Smith addressed the State comiittcemen at Syracuse, urging them to waste no time in geiting their campaign organ- ization under way. Hc said it was highly essential that the democrats remain in control of the executive branch of the State government and warned against permitting the State drive to become tied up with that to place him in the White House. The Governor is not only aiming for the Presidency, but he is anxious that his policies as Chief Executive of the State be kept in democratic hands and he expects to lend all the assist- ance at his command to bring that #bout. He is arranging his itinerary 20 that he will be in the East Octo- ber 1 and 2 for the State convention ¥t Rochester, when a State ticket will ?e‘nlected and a platfo?m adopted. 't is generally accepted that he will be consulted as to both, particularly s to the gubernatorial nomination. Among more than ‘half a dozen names mentioned to make the race are Senator Wagner, friend of the Governor and Tammany leader; George R. Lunn, of Schenectady, for- mer Lieutenant Governor and at pres- ent a State public service commis- sioner; Peter G. Ten Eyck, of Albany, former member of Congress, an Franklin D. Roosevelt, the demo- cratic candidate for vice-presidency eight years ago. SPEAK FOR AL SMITH Alderman Frank Zapatka, Coun- ellman Lawrence S8amorajczyk and Paulin Nurczyk were speakers at a meeting of the Polish-American Political club at Deep River yester- day, where they spoke of the com- ing national elections and of the democratic candidate for president, Alfred E.

J., probably the latter part of next week. This will be the first appearance of the republican presidential candidate in the East, upon which section some of his advisors believe he should con- centrate during the next month with addresses -in New York, home of his democratic opponent, Boston, and other cities. No Commitments However, Hoover has made no com- mitments beyond his Newark speech which will be given in the center of the great northern New ITersey indus- trial district and will deal largely with labor. The nominee touched on this subject briefly in his acceptance ad- dress and is expected to elaborate particularly upon the gquestion of the use of injunctions in laMbr disputes. This subject has received the carn- est attention of officials of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor for several | years. They presented their case before the Scnate Judiciary Com- mittee at the last session of Congress, supporting the Shipstead resolution, dcc{aring against the usc of injunc- tions in_controversies between work- men and their employers. To Discuss Tariff In his address at Stanford univer- sity on August 11, Hoover said the Republican Party stood for “the cur- tailment of the excessive use of the injunction in labor disputes.” He rufdc(l that the republican platform also indorsed the principle of collec- tive bargaining and frcedom in labor negotiations. The republican standard bearer is expected to deal more fully with the tariff question in his Newark speech. The edifice was filled to capacity at the tjme of the mass which pre- ceded fhe blessing of the corner- stone, many out-of-town people at- tending the cermonies. The eervices were conducted by Rev. John Romazy pastor of the church and he was assisted by a number of clergy from Meriden, Hartford and Bridge- port. The new edifice is fastly nearing completion, the walls having already been completed by H. J. Battistoni, the builder, The building when finished will be one of the best ex- the large tower of the church being sumounted with a mosque. It is estimated that the cost will exceed $125,000.

Within a_day or two, Hoover will complete his plans for a fishing trip on Chesapeake Bay the latter part of this week.
