of campaign preparations, today proteased to see no weakening of
their parly lines aa a result of Iteprcsentatlva William Lemke's
union party presidential drive.
Idinilon Lompieira nprcrn
While President Roosevelt continued his sailor's vacation and his
republican opponent, Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kanaaa. completed his
acceptance address and relaxed pending Ita delivery Thursday, their
campaign leaders talked about prospects In the fall election.
Democratic Chairmen James A. Farley described as "too foolish
to be worthy of comment." a statement by Rev. Charles E. Cough
lln that the union party would elect a majority In the bouse.
Beprtsentaiiva josepn w. mar
tin, Jr., republican campaign man
ager In tha east, declared Landon
would lose few votee to Lemke.
Any union party effect In the
rast, he ssld. would be to "make
the states doubly sure for us."
(i.O.P. to Open Drive
Completion of Landon'a a, 600
word acceptance speech centered
attention for tha time being upon
Topeka and the opening of the
republican atandard bearers
drive. While there was no defi
nite word regarding the subject
matter of the address, observers
looked for emphasis on such
problems as agriculture,, relief,
employment, f 1 n a n c e, tariff,
monopoly and tha constitution.
The address will be delivered at
8 p. m. (CST) Thursday, over a
national hookup.
Smith's Aid Sought
While Laniion mane ready for
the address, Chairman lohn D. M.
Hnmilton remained !r. the east,
and the Baltimore Sun said he
conferred yostorday In Now York
with former Governor Alfred E.
Smith, foe of the new deal.
"Mr. Hnmilton begged the New
Yorker to Join actively In the
fight to defeat the reelection of
President Roosevelt," said .the
Sun'a copyright story. "The re
publican leader wants Mr. Smith
to take the stump for Governor
Landon, aa former Governor
Joseph B. Ely of Massachusetts
has agreed to do."
The Sun story expressed the
writers belief, however, that
Smith would make no speeches
under tho auspices of the repub
lican nntlonnl committee, but
might speak against Mr. Roose
velt.
In the capital last night the
president was described aa "a
great humanitarian" by Senator
