 Confident of smith
 Democrats were confident Gov. Smith would be nominated for president at Houston next June. With him at the head of the ticket and with Jduge Floyd Thompson of the state supreme bench as their candidate for governor, party lead CTS predicted a democratic sweep in Illinois next November.
 Pre-convention conferences among republicans settled upon Senator Deneen to head the republican delegation to Kansas City. while George Brennan of Chicago prob- ably will direct the Illinois demo- crats at Houston.

sourcefulness promises a correction of the lack of law enforcement"
 The Women's Law Enforcement league of Southern California yester- day raised its voice against Mrs. Ross campaign by deploring the stand she had taken and regretting that she had chosen to participate in the internal political affairs of California. Previously a women's democratic organization and the Los Angeles Federation of W. C. T. U. bodies had protested against her in vasion of the state.
 In her address last night Mrs. Ross declared Gov. Smith was the only democrat who has chance to beat a republican nominee.
 She dismissed Senator James A. Reed and Senator Thomas J. Walsh as presidential factors by declaring them too obscure and little thought of by the voters.

 Lowdcn Certain
 Frank o. Lowden, who was Illi- nois' war governor and who was given a complementary vote of nearly one million ballots in the primary election, appeared certain of a solid delegation to urge his presidential candidacy at the na- tional convention in June. The draft Coolidge" sentiment fostered by Mayor Thompson appeared to have lost it's following, insofar as state opposition to Lowden was concerned.
 The presidential support of Gov. Al Smith of New York was likewise certainty at the democrats con- vention. George Brennan, demo- cratic leader. said the entire dele gation to the Houston convention would vote for Gov. Smith, with the exception of one delegate who is pledged to United States Senator Reed of Missouri

Len Small and Mayor William Hale Thompson of Chicago-were among those absent from the republican convention which. if they had not been defeat- ed in the April 10 primaries, they had hoped to control. Prominently present was Fred Lundin, 'the poor Swede." who not SO long ago was crony and adviser to each. His po- litical head was axed when the Small-Thompson alliance was effect cd last fall.
 Harmony Urged
 Harmony" was the watchword among republicans, anxious to heal the wounds of a bitter primary campaign. Representatives of the defeated small-Thompson organiza- ton assured United States Senator Charles s. Deneen, leader of the primary winners. that they would cooperate in putting forward a solid republican front.
 Senator Deneen and Roy o. West, secretary of the republican national committee, sought in two confer ences last night to induce the gu bernatorial candidate. Louis l.. En- merson, to agree to law enforce

FUR BUYERS FLY
 TO KUSKOKWIM

The benefit of airplanes in Alaska has been demonstrated re gently by the trip made by Doug las Austin, fur buyer for Gold stein's Emporium and Marion Goldstein, fur buyer for an east ern firm, who flew from Anchor age to Bethel in the Kuskokwim early this month, making the trip in four and one-half hours. Tha usual route by dog team is made in about 90 days and is generally filled with the hardships of the winter trail
 The plane was piloted by Avia- tor Merrill whose headquarters are at Anchorage.
 MT. Austin and MT Goldsteip will make the remainder of the trip along the coast from Bethel to the head of the Alaska Penin- sula by dog team, and will be on the trail several weeks. They will probably return to Seward from the Peninsula on the mail boat Starr.
