"Doesn't he read the papers? Doesn't he listen to the radio? Don't they tell him what his own leaders are saying? Mitchell made biting references m uov. inomas E. Dewey of New York; Leonard W. Hall, Republi can national, chairman: and Secre tary of Commerce Weeks, and said tney all had taken part in a cam paign to try to discredit the Dem ocrats' loyalty. He called it "a ballvhoo cam. Pa'Sn of an extraordinarily ruthless I and sinister nature a campaign to arm into the public mind a sus picion that the Democratic party is somenow the party of commit nism." In part the tactic is to divert attention from adverse economic reports, Mitchell said, adding that the Republicans would have to ac- cept responsibility both for eco nomic conditions and for use of what he said were "unworthy" tactics. "The secretary of commerce is Pollyana optimism, all the com placency that the Republicans ex uded last time when 'prosperity was just around the corner.' Bally hoo is no substitute for leadership," Mitchell said. Stout Confederate Veteran Gives Battle AUSTIN, Tex.

Young as a director and chairman of the board of the New York Central Railroad threatened today to touch off a wide-open battle for control of the vast rail system. Young, who controls the rail road's largest individual stork holding, denounced the present Board of Directors after its action yesterday. In a statement from his Palm Beach, Fla., home, he declared: "The real issue - is whether the owners of the properties are going to be made to continue to submit to a Morgan nonownership board with countless conflicting interests or whether they are to enjoy what every "honest business under our American system must have if shareholders and the public are to be served Instead of be damned.

Salem, Oregon" MISSION COMPLETED with a strong ownership In Us chair. The New York Central owners, I am sure, on May 26 will give the right answer." The railroad's annual meeting, at which all shares can be voted in an election for a new Board of Directors, is scheduled for May 26 in Albany, N.Y. Young had requested that bolh he and his associate, Allan P. Kirby, be named to the board. After a five-hour secret meeting, the directors announced: "The board unanimously decid ed that it would be inimical to the best interest of the company to grant Mr. Young's request." 'Uie board said it rejected not only the request that Young and Kirby be made directors but also Mr Youngs insistence that he must become its chairman and chief executive officer." Young denied he sought to take over the post of William White, president of the Central. "This Morgan board," Young said, "now seeks to confuse the issue by as serting that I, the largest known individual stockholcr. desire to substitute myself for Mr. White as chief operating executive. Nothing is further from the fact.
