T here the dem ocrats, hoping to a v e rt a repeti tion of the strife th a t split th e ir ranks four years ago a t M adison Square g ar den, are beginning to assem ble to se lect presidential and vice-presidential nom inees and d ra ft a p arty platform . A t H ouston, th e big question to be settled is w h eth er G overnor Sm ith of New York is to be th e presidential nom inee. T h at issue overshadow s all o thers, including the prohibition ques tion, w hich is intertw ined w ith his candidacy, and farm relief. In 1924 Sm ith and McAdoo fought each o th er to a stan d still in the New York convention, both losing out In th e end. T his y ear McAdoo is not a ! candidate.

In addition they have th eir eyes on 38 additional delegate votes w hich they predict will sw ing to Sm ith quickly. T his would give him w ithin a dozen votes of the num ber he would need to go over.
