CONWAY CHICAGO. July .20 (ifl Sen ator Alben W. Barkley, who six months aso' laid down the new deal standard in a bitter but short-lived tax quarrel with the White House, raised it high to day with a can ior renomin ation of President Roosevelt as a leader unsurpassea u ever equalled." It was another dramatic mo ment in tile relations between the president and his Dear Al ben" of other days, for the Ken tucky senator himself is a vice presidential candidate lacking a favorable nod from the man he was nominating for an unprece dented 16 years as chief executive. Barkley concluded his nomin ating spcech..to..tha..tbrong pack ed tier on tier in the lofty echo ing stadium with these words: 1 present to this assembly for' the office of president of 1 these United States the name of one who is endowed with the intellectual boldness of Thomas Jefferson, the indomitable cour age of Andrew Jackson, the faith and patience of Abraham Lin coln, the rugged integrity of Grover Cleveland and the schol arly vision of Woodrow Wilson Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Barkley conceded he had dis agreed on occasion with the president. But he added, in his prepared -address: "It is one thing to differ from a friend. It is quite another tiling to discard, or seem to dis card, a leadership unsurpassed if ever equalled in the annals of American history; or to repud iate a record of achievement in national and international af fairs so amazing and successful that his friends proclaim it and his enemies dare not threaten it with destruction."
