AL SMITH may
STEP OUT SOON
ON TALK TOUR
Hundreds of Invitations
Pour Into Albany Urging
His Appearance.
BY RAY TUCKER


NEW YORK, March ga ma
tion-Wide audience may soon see
Al Smith displaying the stuff that
has made him a four time Governor
of New York.
From advisers in all parts of the
country the Governor has received
suggestions that he make a formal
bow to the people West of the Hud-
son River and below the Mason and
Dixon line. Hundreds of invitations
have poured into Albany daily
from the most amazing variety of
conventions, associations and ma
tional bodies. They have come from
business and professional men, civic
groups, political organizations and
even sunshine societies.
Turns Down All Invitations
So far he has turend down all in
vitations, keeping the promise made
in his 1927 inaugural address, which
was to stick to his knitting as Gov
ernor. Both he and his friends
argue that good record at Albany
will be his strongest asset when he
is placed in nomination at Houston
in June.
He will not wage what is known
as an aggressive campaign, and will
make no obvious bid for publicity.
He will not even let his name be
used in the California primary.
But a new note of warning has
been sounded by close advisers re-
turning from the South and West.
These assert Smith is now thought
of only in terms of wet and dry.
Catholic and anti-Catholic, Tam
many and anti-Tammany. In many
sections of the country, Smith has
been told, mention Of his candidacy
precipitates nothing but discussions
revolving around these subjects.
May Speak in May
1t has been suggested that an ad-
dress by Smith on subject of ma
tional or general interest might help
to set people thinking Of him as a
national figure for other and better
reasons.
1t is understood Smith is giving
serious thought to this argument.
He will be occupied at Albany until
the middle of April with considera-
ton of measures passed before ad-
journment Of the legislature. Then
he may be willing to step out of
New York.
He has tentatively declined an in
Vitation to address a convention of
$500 social welfare workers at Mem
phis on May 5, but in view of his
emphasis on the social side of gov
eminent, some Of his advisers feel
this meeting would furnish an ideal
opportunity for letting the people
see and hear him.

Is Unknown.

Py United Press
WASHINGTON, March 22.-More
than twenty-four hours after being
declared dead, an unidentified
woman about 80 years old was alive,
but still unconscious, at Casualty
Hospital here today.
Physicians at l a. m. discharged
police and fire rescue squads who
had worked in relays with pull
motor to restore her breathing ever
since a tWitching neck muscle be-
trayed life in the woman at 8:45
a. m. Wednesday,
Condition Still Grave
The doctors at intervals injected
adrenalin and strychnine to- hasten
recovery of normal pulse and respi-
ration. They reported she was still
in a "precarious condition"
The victim, known to them only
as 1.-THE White Carnation woman"
was found unconscious in her
pullman berth on train from New
York.
A physician at the Union Station
said she had been dead four hours.
Nearly three hours later, as she lay
on slab at the city m.orgue, Of
ficials noted the twitching muscle.
Fireman Gives Blood
The pu1notor was brought. At
p. m. as warmth again seemed
corsing through the stiffened body

PeTenniaLS Are Best
Source for Cut FZ070ers

, to insure the lest results. Place five
or six inches of we'll rotted COW
manure in the bottom and cover
with four or five inches of soil to
prevent direct contact with the
roots.
Peonies are best planted. in Sep
TENDER and October, but spring
planting is oftentimes done and if
so place divisions in the ground in
early spring. Plant two or three
feet apart and about three inches
under the surface.
Peonies are extremely hardy and
do not require much protection
after the first year. After the plants
are established, cultivate each spring
to a depth of one or two inches,
working into the soil some we'll
rotted manure and bone meal, being
sure that the fertilizer does not
come in contact with the crown of
the plant.
Peonies throw out a lot of moiS-
ture, and after the buds have
formed, an application of liquid
manure will produce larger and
more brilliant blooms. To get the
largest flowers, pick off all the lat
eral buds and permit only the top
ones to develop.
ANIMALS Most Economical
Every one who has had a garden
has grown some of the many va
rieties Of ANIMALS, such as zennias.
asters and sweet peas said Morgan.
"Annuals supply the most eco
nomical source Of cut flowers. The
fact that they die down every fall
makes it necessary that they be
planted each spring. 1t is desirable
that the beds be renewed each fall
by cultivating thoroughly and work
ing in a liberal quantity of we'll
rotted manure.
I'm the spring cultivate the soil
and level, removing all heavy clods
and any foreign material present.
Plant seeds after danger of frost
has passed. Sow fine seeds on top
of soil and sprinkle lightly with
dirt and firm gently.
Larger seeds should be covered
on an average to a depth equal to
the width of the seed.
Sweet peas are planted about one
and one-half inches deep and zen
MAS about one-half inch deep.
ITO insure : extremely early
flowers. seeds may be started in
doors and transplanted to the open
as soon as the danger of frost is
passed. When plants are two or
three inches high, thin out to pro-
vide growing space for those that
remain. Keep plants we'll watered
throughout season and keep beds
free from weeds.
