Barkley Calls for
Renomination of
'Unsurpassed1 FDR
Br WILLIAM J. 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."

Split Provoked
A source in London said the
critical question of reserves for
the German armies on three
fronts had provoked a split be
tween Rommel and Field Mar

commander of the force, in Nor

incident might have resulted
from a general division of the
uerman staff, resulting in
brawl.
The incident followed hv
few days the dismissal of Field
marsnai Gen. Karl Gerd von
Rundstedt from his command in

shift which was interpreted
abroad as a slap at the German
military caste and a favor to
