Analysis
By I.' Himilil Oliver'
CHICAGO. July 3 (M Written' from tho colfl figures of Uie four
grueMliift presidential ballots, th'e story of the 1932 Democratic national
convention reveals tho staying qualities of the closely-knit Roosevelt dele
gations and tho devotion of Al"8mltls eastern strength In tho face of
certain defeat. i . , ' ' . .
Throughout tho quartet of long and weary roll calls, Pranklln D. Roose
velt not only won unwavering support, but kept up a steady pull until
his margin wns so big that It forced capitalization of the Qamer and most
of tho favorite son delegations. : - ,
Smith, second In running throughout, received the solid support of
Massachusetts. New Jersey, Connecticut and Rhode Island on all four
ballots, and lost only 11 "4 votes' net between the first and last roll call.
On the other hand. RoosevelM who polled 666 on the first. gained
11(4 on Uo second ballot, S 2-5' more on the third and 262 21-100 more on
the lost. .
Of the 55 states and territories, only 15 changed their votes after the
first ballot, 0 of these coming on the last when California started the
Roosevelt nomination rush. !

"Cactus Jack " of Texas to his many
friends had beon chosen for vice
president by the leaders hours before
tho convention Itself ratified the
selection with a great shout.
Texas and California hod voted for
him for the presidency, and It was
their turn to Roosevelt last night
which broke the back of the opposi
tion, heaping up at the feet of the
New Yorker nine tenths of the
strength of the convention.
The only real threat of opposition
to Garner came from he defeated
partisans of Alfred E. Smith, but it
never materialized.
8inlth Leaves Before Vote
Smith, refusing to say whether he
would support the ticket, left Chi
cago before tho vice presidential vot
ing began. A group of his supporters
from New York, New Jersey, Massa
chusetts, Rhode Island and Connecti

sey's congresswoman, Mary Norton,
for second place, but decided against
It, and seconded Garner.
Iowo presented Gen. Matt Tlnley.

SPENCER TRACY (STAR OF
WILLIAM (STAGE) BOYD
CHICAGO, July 2 m Democratic
women came through tho climax or
the convention's nomination m
Franklin D. Roosevelt with Bplriu
buoyant, howling and squealing and
throwing kisses and mingling die
hard Jeers with the cheers.
Nellie Tayloe Ross, their top ser
geant, proclolmed their port in
reuohlng harmony "the greatest work
for humanity which women have per
formed recently. '
"The next thing to do," she added,
"Is to abolish the two-thirds rule so
that one-third of the party cannot
enforce Its will over the majority.
Among the most enthusiastic cheer
era was Mrs. Elizabeth Bass, of Illi
nois. Bbe said:
"This has proved again what we
rtomnnHtrntnd in 1Q1S that W0 can
nominate without tho east if need)
oo: wo can eiecu a uemocrauu picoi
dent without it."
"The Dawn Has Come"
Mrs. Isabella Ctreenway, of Arizona,
perhaps the closest friend of tho
Roosevelt family In the stadium,
sighed and said, "The dawn has
come. Mr. McAdoo touched the heart
of the situation when he sold we
didn't come here to deadlock the
convention."
But Mrs. Borden (Daisy) Harrl
man. outstanding committeewoman
of Washington, D. 0., didn't approve
of the wind-up and said so.
"I'd like to have seen them: fight
it out." she asserted. "I never liked
a deal."
While William O. McAdoo was still
talking she "turned to Miss Mary W.
Dewson. Roosevelt women's leader
who was standing Just behind. Some
body heard Daisy say "I'll bet you,"
while Miss Dewson shook her head as
if accepting the wager.
Somebody asked Mrs. Josephus Dan
iels how about all the booing from
the gallery, she dismissed lfc: "It's
Republican." ; .
' Mrs. Molvln Traylor, who yesterday
declared allegiance to Newton Baker,
emphasized' her second word In "I
hope he (Roosevelt) can win."'
Mrs. Norton Bitter
Repersentatlve Marty T. Norton,
who offered the vote of her state for
the vice presidential nomination was
perhaps the bitterest of the New Jer
sey Smithltes. She semed to be bit
ing her lips as she said she'd better
not talk, then burst out:
"I said all I wanted to say last
night and I'll say It the rest of my
life." ,
She referred to her speech for "Al"
In which she spoke out on religious
intolerance. i
But the vast majority seemed to
like the finale. They howled and
waved and shouted.
