MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOKD. OREO OX. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 13. 1936. PAGE THREE TALK COALITION CABINET IF NEW OEALJEFEATEO Fletcher, G. 0. P. Chairman, Reveals Rumor Demos Plan Roosevelt Delegates in Important Primaries WASHINGTON. Feb. 13. (AP) Henry P. Fletcher, Republican na tional chairman, said tcday he had "heard talk" about a coalition cabi net If the New Deal U defeated in November. He declined to discuss the subject. While political oratory In honor of Abrah-in Lincoln subsided, Fletcher met with reporters In press confer ence. Questions about cabinet plans were Induced by a. welcome extended last night by Senator Vandenberg of Michigan In New York to co operation from "Jeffersonlan Demo crats" not alone In the campaign, he said, "but In the council cham ber after next November's victory is won." In the Democratic fold, plans to enter Roosevelt delegates In Im portant primaries appeared to be ex panding. Pennsylvania, Illinois, Wis consin and New Jersey were named among the states where these tac tics will be pursued. Two-Fold Aim. The aim apparently would be two fold. Rolling up of goodly numbers behind administration delegates might be counted on to have some psycho logical effect, and at the same time preclude possible difficulties If the question of New Deal support were left out of the pre-conventlon con siderations. Charles West, undersecretary of the Interior, had already told Ohio Democrats "we Intend to sec that Roosevelt delegates" are seated II credentials contests develop at Phila delphia. Fletcher told reporters In his of fice "Jim Farley and those fellows will have to start It. If there la to be a 'dirty campaign. " "How's the money coming In?" the O.OJ. chairman was asked. "Pretty well," he replied. "The committee Intends to raise Just as big a campaign fund as we can get. No matter how large It Is. It won't be as big as the other fellows will have.' The committee has about 9200.000. and plans a "pay-as-you-go" cam paign, Fletcher explained, with ex penses no larger than contributions. Want Radio Time. He Indicated the committee would continue its attempts to obtain such radio time as It wanted. "Freedom of the air Is going to be as Important as freedom of speech," he said. Democratic sources said Senator Robinson of Arkansas might be the keynote speaker at the Philadelphia national convention June S3. With an early preview of O.O.P. sentiment promised for April show ing, with both Colonel Frank Knox and Senator Borah entered In the II In ola primary, there was evidence of further broadening of activity on the part of the veteran Idaho sen ator. His forces were girding for action in Oregon, Wisconsin and Nebraska, They previously had made definite plans to enter Ohio. Although acknowledging he aspired to the nomination. Senator Dickin son (R., Iowa) at Greensboro, N, C, told reporters he would not seek pledged delegates In the state pri , marles. Delegate contests often beget enemies, he reminded, and he wants only friends In the Cleveland con vention.

Mr. Ingalls dispelled what he term ed the myth about Ann Rutledge. It was a vicious gossip, he said, who concocted the tale that Lincoln had been so deeply In love with Ann that he never loved Mary Todd, the wom an he married after his former sweet heart had died. It was not until after Lincoln's death that the rumors were spread end It was a male gossip who Invent ed the story and profited financially from it by recording the vilification In lecture and book. Mr. Ingalls re lated. , The shock of her husband's assas sination and the ugly gossip of his lack of love for hla wife weighed heav ily upon Mrs. Lincoln's mind, the editor said. After recovering from in sanity, the widow spent a few years in France but, becoming 111, she de cided to return to America. On the ship was Sarah Bernhardt, the French actress. When the vessel docked In New York the captain ar ranged for the actress to be the first to walk down the gangplank, the pres ident's widow having to follow In her wake, Mr. Ingalls related. And as she was about to step upon her native land, the leader of a crowd at the wharf to welcome the French actress, bruskly pushed Mrs. Lincoln back so that a carriage for the stage star might draw up alonslde the gang plank. "Such." aald Mr. Ingalls, "was the reception accorded President Lincoln's widow." Lincoln was so successful In spite of the Innumerable obstacles placed In his way during the Civil war that an English observer later asserted that the president had accomplished more than Bonaparte had ever attempted, Mr. Ingalls stated. "Now," Mr. Ingalls concluded, "Lin coln belongs to the ages." BY LARGE POSSE FOR AGED (Continued from Page One.) Mr. Reed collapsed on the roadside near hla home about three weens ago, It was learned today. The sher iff's office here was notified and a deputy was sent for him, Sheriff Sid Brown said.
