WASHINGTON TO
ASK AL SMITH
FOR ADDRESS
Governor May Speak to
VoteIeSS Thousands in
Capital.
BY PAUL FREDRIX
United Press stan Correspondent


WASHINGTON, July 10.-Gov-
ernor Smith of New York, Demo-
cratic presidential nominee, will be
asked to make campaign speech
beneath Washington's monument
here before a crowd, only one in
ten of whom can vote.
John F. Costello. and Mrs. ]. Bor-
den Hartman, Democratic national
committee members from the Dis
trict of Columbia, will leave for AL
bany tonight to make the request.
They said today that a Smith
address to "votelesS Washington"
would be good campaign strategy,
for while no citizens can cast bal
lots here, some $4,000 Washing
tonians are entitled to cast "absen-
tee" ballots in outside States, and
the Governors message would be
repeated by his hearers to their
friends in every section Of the coun-
try.
May Use Monument Site
No hall here is big enough to hold
the audience that might want tn
hear Smith. Costello, therefore
said the monument grounds, form
ing a natural amphitheater, might
be used.
1.-THE Republicans, because o!
Herbert Hoover's residence here
have placed their publicity in news
papers everywhere through hun
dreds of Washington correspondent:
trained in political writing" Cos
tello said. "a Smith speech here
would do much to reduce this Re-
publican advantage"
Costello has not abandoned hope
that Smiths national campaign
headquarters will be established
here, although the Governor him.
self will stay close to Albany.
When Costello and Mrs. Harrl-
man return from visiting Smith
they will establish District OF Co.
lumbia headquarters for him, help
ing absentee" voters prepare their
ballots for mailing, and arranging
speaking tours in nearby States.
One hundred prominent Demo
cratic residents, including many
former members of Congress, are
expected to map local campaign
plans.
Organize Smith Clubs
How Washington Democrats
spread their activities to neighbor-
ing States is shown by Mrs. Lester
j. Pollock, a vice president of the
local Al Smith Club, who left last
night to organize women's Demo
cratic club at Potter, Pa.
Mrs. G. G. Calhoun, a persona.
friend of Smith, has invited him tC
use her beautiful home in Graemel
Forest, Md, should he come here.
Meantime, Washington's vote
less" have opportunity, through 6
newspapers straw poll" to regis
ter their sentiment. OF the first
1900 ballots tabulated, the news
paper said, nearly 1000 were foi
Smith as against Hoover.
Republicans, as we'll as Democrats
and independents, helped to swell
Smiths majority. The women's vote
also went to Smith.
