(AP) President Roosevelt pledged his per sonal effort "to try to keep" the Democratic party "liberal" In an ad drew Monday, p ruining the legisla tive record of tho new dent's sena torial candid a ta tn Mnryland, Repre sentative David J. Lewis. By name, Mr. Roosevelt mentioned In hi prepared address neither Lewis nor Senator Millard Tydings whom the White House has marked for de feat In the Democratic primary. But the president's praise of Lewis was unmistakable, while many hear-; era, recalling that Mr. Roosevelt once j aid that Tydings "wants to run with the Roosevelt prestige and the money of hi conservative Republican friends both on his side," Interpreted these words a directed at the senator: lrr tern-Ion Rnpped "Any man any political parry haa a right to be honestly one or ' the other (conservative or liberal) But the nation cannot stand for the confusion of having him pretend to be one and act like the other." The president spoke to eastern shoro farmers, gathered with their families In county-fair atmosphere on and about the court-house lawn. They had brought picnic lunches, drank soda pop and had snapshots taken by Itinerant photographers while they wnlted for the president and Lewis, to drive up this Chesa peake bay peninsula. Mr. Roosevelt's Labor day speech was delivered after an automobile drive under a bright sun from Crls fleld. where he landed from an over night cruise on his yacht Potomac. Ho drove through towns whose pro dominant occupation were fishing and farming and paused at Salisbury to say the eastern shore 'had given him a "wonderful reception " Visit Defended The president Indirectly noted the contention In some campaign adver tisement by Tydings supporters his visit constituted an "Invasion" of the state. In this connection he re marked "for two reasons" he had accepted the Invitation of Rep. T. Alan aoldsborough, eastern shore congressman, to make the visit. "The first reason." he said. "! to give you and me a chance to reestab lish a fact which we thought long n;o was thoroughly established by (ho constitution . . . that In the freo atat of Maryland happily I part of the union the flag, the con- stltutlon and the president are still as welcome as In all the other forty-seven states of the union." . . . "The second, and the original, reason for my coming here Is also related to the unity of this nation Unthinking people may believe that the first Monday In September Labor day la set aside In special honor of those who work at a trade tn mills and factories and railroads and mines. That Is a nnrrow Inter pretation, for this day belongs Just aa much to those who work with head and hands on farms. , , .

Today above all else that minority Is trying to drive a wedge between the farm era on the one hand and their rela tives and their logical partners In the cities on the other. , . ." "That Is why I have wanted to come here on Labor Day and preach a sermon. If you will, on the ancient text, 'Wa are all memhers one of an other.' "Economic leason number one of the past 30 years Is that men and women on farm, men and women in cities, are partners. America cannot prosper unless both group prosper "Thiit Is the keystone In the arch of thr economic and social policy of your administration l Washing ton."

Later, he continued, "a young con gressman got a parcel post law on the statute books of the United States." Many years Inter, said the president, the snme Mnryland repre sentative took the lrad tn passing the federal social security law. "He symbollres for the farm and city alike." Mr. Roosevelt n1d. "Hie inherent Immunity of the mn who rise from humble ctrcumMnnrr and the Inherent ability to grow In vision and effertivenehs in the fertile anil ol American opportunity and Amrtrsn tradition of equality." Mr. Roosevelt, who said last week he would not object to the election of a Republican, If he were a "lib eral" at heart, gnve as his definition of a "composite" conservative "Mr. A." He aatd "Mr. A." not only de clined to take any lend In coopera tion with the government In solving problems faced In 1933, "but found fault with or opposed, openly or secretly, almost every auKo-Mlon put forward by thOM who belonged to the liberal school of thought." The 'composite" liberal, "Mr. B." ha said, "gave active study and active support to working out methods, in cooperation with government, for the solving the problems and the filling of the needs.
