WHITE HOUSE BID !
ON EVE OF TALK
DECLINED BY AL
i
Mrs. Roosevelt Sends lnvi-j
tation to Be Guest While!
In Washington to Makej
Anti-New Deal Attack j
Borah Strength Gains. !
NEW YORK. Dec. 38. P The
pth of two political associates and
friend of other years, President
Roosevelt and Alfred E. Smith, were
farther apart today -with the disckw--ire
the former governor will decline
an Invitation to be a White House
guest when he goes to Washington to
address the American liberty league
linner Jan. 25.
The Invitation was sent by Mrs.
Roosevelt more than a week ago. The
1928 democratic presidential candi
date has not yet rcptled, but he said
today he would be unable to accept
Inasmuch as he would be accompan
ied on the trip to Washington by a
large party of friends and would re
main with them.
Smith's party will atay at a Penn
sylvania avenue hotel two blocle away
from the White House and one of the
former governor's guest. It was ex
pected, will be John J. Raskob, for
mer chairman of the democratic na
tional committee.
mte Smtth, Raskob Is a charter
member of the league.
In View OE irtmtns Known ekjouu-
to the new deal, the Invitation oc
casioned some surprise among asso
ciates of the former governor, both
In New York end In Washington.
They pointed out that the liberty
league address without doubt will
contain an attack on the administra
tion and ald published reports to
this effect, some daya ago, hardly
could have escaped the attention of
the White House.
The Invitation incident Is not with
out its political Implications.. The
liberty league will find many antt
ew deal democrats together at Its
Washington dinner and they will
probably look to the former governor
for a keynote of opposition.
In his abort career as editor of the
new Outlook, Smith was a frequent
, administration critic.
Storm glgna'j Vp
WASHINGTON, Dec. 38. (iP)
Storm signals multiply for both ma
jor parties aa 1935 gives way to cope
with differences In their ranks.
Whether the Impending struggles will
threaten the traditional political set
ups presents a potentially-historic
question.
Week-end developments illustrated
the disordered situation in part.
With Alfred E. Smith planning to re
sume attacks on the new deal at the
American liberty league dinner here
January 35, the president and Mrs.
Roosevelt a week o Invited him to
be their guests during his stay In the
city.
He said today In New York he
would be unable to accept.
Although Smith has refused to
sanction attempts to elect delegates
pledged to him for the June conven
tion, some moves to that end persist.
The speech may Indicate the extent
to which he is ready to carry his op
position to administration policies.
Borah Fretl O. O. P.
Standing to profit from that pros
pect, the republican leadership was
given cause for thought itself today
by word that Senator Borah of Idano
will undertake eastern apeechmaking
In New York January 28.
This arrangement followed closely
upon announcement that, delegate
slates for him would be entered In
the Wisconsin and TUInoia primaries
In the spring Three different fac
tions already have signified sn In
tention to gain the 90 New York dele
gates for the Idahoan also, in de
fiance of the state party organiza
tion. The Smith and Borah upcechM may
serve to point up the f.irty divisions
more along conservative and liberal
lines. President Roosevelt will have
had hi say in the opening message to
congress and the 1939-37 budget.
Quarters close to the White House
believe that, while no extraordinary
new departures are now contemplated
by Mr. Roosevelt, neither will there
be any turning back on new deal
fundamental.
While Borah is outspoken against
the new deal, his immediate objective
has more to do with overthrow of
the old guard in his own party. In
seeking this. It was said on his oe
half this week, he will stand on the
monetsry v'ews which bulk so large
In eastern opposition to him.
"I have rarer advocated anythinx

HIGH WIND WITH
SAIN ROARS OVER
VALLEY AND CITY
Like southern California Medford
had some "unusual" weather yester
day. There was a dense fog early in
the morning to bpgln with; then fo;
iowed a clearing, & heavy wind, ruin
and snow in the foothills around the
city.
The most unusual part of the
weather was the wind. It reached a
maximum velocity of 45 miles an
hour in midsfternoon, according to
the meteorological bureau's Instru
ments, and 50 miics, according t-n
United Air Lines instruments. For a
five-minute period it averaged 35
miles an hour.
That was an exceptionally strong
blow for the Bogue valley, meteorolo
gists said, the wind reaching auch
velocity oniy three or four times a
year. The stiff wind continued well
into the night, though no damage
was reported by either state or city
police.
The wind came first from the
soui beast and then shifted to the
south. It was due to the proximity
of a low pressure area centered 450
miles off the Pacific coast west af
Medford and a high pressure area
centtxai over Idaho. When two pres
sing areas sre so close, government
meteorologists explained, the air from
the high rushes toward the low. the
latter forming a sort of decJine. Air.
tii scientists said, travels downward
like wster, the steeper the decline the
stronger the blow.
From 8 to 8:40 p.m. exactly 5S of an
inch of rain was registered. The fote
cast was for rain today and unsettled
conditions tomorrow with occasional
precipitation. Normal temper a turcj
were predicted.
The mercury late last night stood
at 45 degrees as against 38 at lite
same hour iha previous night. The
maximum temperature yesterday was
SI, the same as for Friday- The low
yesterday was 30 as compared with 38
Friday morning the difference being
due mainly to a dense fog that roiied
in yesterday at 4 a.m. and did not
clear entirely until 8:30 a.m.
The weather bureau last night re
ceived reports of snow falling on the
Siskiyou and Sexton summits. Late
In the afternoon bureau observers
noted snow squaiis In the foothills
around Medford.

A MYSTERY PLAN
WAITS AS LINDY
Possibility Seen Family May
Fly to Unnamed Point
Due to Land Wednesday
By Stephen Williamson
(Copyright 2933, by tee Associated
BELFAST, Northern Ireland, Dec,
28. sVPs A hlp bearing the Charles
A. Lindberghs away from their na
tive America, approached the British
isles today and an airplane waited
under sealed orders near here.
The possibility arose that Colonel
Lindbergh Mrs, Lindbergh and their
son Jos might leave their ship here
snd complete the Journey to England
by airplane.
The family are the only passengers
t board the s, S. American importer,
having & rmtgh passage across thv
North Atlantic. They s&Ucd secretly
last Sunday, apparently to escape kid
nap threats against t&ree-ji.'sr-old
Jon.
Where the Lindberghs will disem
bark was uncertain. The Importer
usually calls t Seifast only on its
west-bound voyage, but it was point
ed out that the route may have been
changed for th Lindberghs.
Officials at the Aldezgrov Royal
Mr Fire alrdome admitted a plane
is waiting there under scaled orders
but said they did not know for what
purposes.
Should Colonel Lindbergh wish ta
stop at Belfast a Seeder would be
neceaaary to bring him In and It was
learned ih this far no tender has
been engaged.
The Importer usually stops at
Coon, Ireland, on lis eastward voy
age but reports from London said It
might not do thla but proceed di
rectly to some Bngitsh port, probab
ly Liverpool
They are expected to land about
Wednesday with, the time of their
arrival uncertain because of the heavy
winter seas.
The Lindbergh spent a, lone Christ
mas at sea. They are expected to take
up residence In Sngland which nss
never had aa attempted kidnaping
for ransom.
