HYlK ARK, N. Y.. July 23. (AP) President Roosevelt assert ed today he understood the demo era l ie party recently bad Iwlted from Senator Kdwurd It. Hurke of Nebraska and that the administra tion thought the minds of Lewla W. Douglas and John W. Hanea ran more to dollars than to humanity. Questions at the president's first press conference since his accept ance of u third term nomination produced those remarks against three anti-third term democrats who have pledged their support to Wendell L. Willkle, the republican presidential nominee. James A. Kced. former democratic senator from Missouri, also was assailed by the president- Mr. Roosevelt's criticism of Iluiko was prompted by an inquiry whether he thought the word "bolt" accurately described the senator's action In urging mainten ance of the two-term tradition and throwing his support to Willkle. nurke was defeated for renoml nallon in a primary by Governor R. U, Cochran of Nebraska. Asked how he regarded "this dis sent of Jeffersoninn democrats." Mr. Roosevelt said he was thinking of another couple good, old Lew Douglas and Johnny Manes. Douglas. Mr. Roosevelt said, did not vote the democratic ticket in 10.16 and he doubted that Hanes dlil. Both were In Ihe government service, he said, and both are hon orable and amiable young men, but he thought the concensus In the government found their slant of , mind ran more to dollars than to humanity. Douglas was the New Deal's first budget director, Hanes, a former undersecretary of the treasury. Reed Again? The chief, executive wus inform ed that Reed, who has offered to organize independent democrats for Willkle, had called a meeting of "grass root, JetteiMoniun demo crats" in Chicago. With a smile belying the sur prise put into his Intonation, Mr. Roosevelt usked : Again Ho suld Reed had done much tho sumo thing in l!t;t2 and J and he thought perhaps in PJ-'f. Reed Is well qualified from experience, the president w ent on. adding that j we all remember that Hweatshop matter, of course. j A White House official who checked with Washington said the national tabor relations board had filed a formal complaint on April 27, 1!CI!, against the Donnelly (lar-i nient company of Kansas City, of which Mr. Reed Is president nnd treasurer. (They said Reed appeared before the board In oral argument, that the board held against the com pany 011 March fi. 1110, and that the i case was appealed three days later to the eighth circuit court of ap peals.! AL SMITH, RASKOB, SHOUSE MAY SWING TO WILLKIE XKW YORK. July 2:1. (API A strategy conference of three prom inent democrats, all of them anti New Deal in their sentiments, to day caused their close friends to predict that shortly they might an nounce active support of Wendell U Willkle. the republican nomi nee. The men Alfred R Smith, the '27 democratic presidential candi date; John J. Haskoh and Joiietl Shouso met for dinner last night and continued their conference un til almost midnight. Raskob Is a former chairman of tho national democrat Ic commit tee and Shouso was nt one time chairman of the executive commit tee of the national committee. Smith, although aware of a story in tho New York Herald Tribune which safil he. would soon announce his opposition to n third term for President Roosevelt, did not make himself available for comment. Raskob. in answer to the follow ing question "Have you decided yet on what stand yon will take In the campaign?" said:- "Not yet." He would not discuss the sub jects he talked over with Smith and Shouse. Smnn of Raskob's close friends, however, said they had no doubt but he would support Willkle. WASHINGTON. July 2:i.-(.P) Three democrat ic senators who have opposed the third term prin ciple Van Xiiys of Indiana. Adams of Colorado and Wheeler of Mon tana sa hi today they neverthe less would vole for President Roosevelt again in November. They disclosed their atlttude in talking w ith re(Mrters.

(A IM- Re ports that a Russian air base fs be tug developed on soviet-owned Big LHomede Inland in the Iter tne sea only a mile- from the Amcrlt-au Lit tle Dlomede island were confirm- ed by the V. 8. coast guard cutter Perseus on a visit to the far north. On 10 days ago officers of the cutter talked to the four white men and leaders of the native popula tion of Little Dlomede, learning definitely of the presence of a small detaclunent of Russian sold iers and construction of u largo airplane hangar and field on the soviet island. It wus reported. The American skimps, who for-! merly puddled across the channel separating the two Islunds to trade Ivory, now are barred from the Russian island, it was learned. The Kskimos saw several Russian sub marines ben lied along the rock shore, it was reported. Third Term Issue Seen As Perplexing to Voters PORTLAND, July 23. (AP) Two educators agreed today the third term issue will force one of the most perplexing decisions In political history upon the Ameri can voters next November. "Disregard of the third term precedent would be very danger ous for American democracy," Dr. Harwood L. Childs, associate pro fessor of politics at Princeton, told the Reed college public relations panel. "Inability lo find a substi tute for a man after eight years is a confession of weakness." "Millions of Americans will be fuced by the question 'shall I vote against a man whose policies 1 ap prove because he Is running for it third term?' That, would be a hard one to answer," said Don D. Lcsco hter, economics professor at the L'nlversity of Wisconsin. Five Children Born to Couple Within One Year KANSAS CITY.
