showing made by the local Republican
organization In the last gubeCnatorial

by a vote so Overwhelmingly Democratic
below the Bronx that the governor
could not help but think there was party
tTeachery.
From that moment he determined that
the organization in Greater New York
should be changed. Many Of the district
leaders We're Platt men, and when Gov
ernor OdeIl announced that he wanted
a change, there arose differences be-
tween him and the senior Senator.
More differences arose. and there were
private accusations made by each side
that the other was seeking the over
throw of Roosevelt.

ernor Odeu was summoned TO the

Platt at the White House last night,

So far it is. not said that Smoot has
more than one wife but it is alleged
that he was compelled to take an oath
as an apostle OF the church of the Lat
