ALFRED EMANUEL SMITH

Governor Smith is no political accident. His re-
markable succession Of victories in his own state
which normally is cassed republican cannot be
planned by temporary, ephemeral, adyentitious fac
4ors. He is no demagogue, spellbinder. His
eer though of the sort that is commonly thought to
be typically American is unique in some respects.
He has attained his present high pos by sheer per-
sonal force, native ability hard work. genuine lead
ership in public affars-in somewhat limited are
na--and strict Integrity. Always Tammany man. he
is not of Tamrnany morally even politically He has
made reprehensble concessions to the spos
school. He has stopped to ignoble deals for the
sake of his own or his partys aggrandizement. A
Of convictions he has stood by those conv ctions
regardless of consequences.
He has held many public posit'o and in each
has acquitted himself creditaby. His rise has been
steady and on merit He has won the confidence and
admiration of hosts of Republicans and Independents
In the egislat and in the constitutional
ton of his STATE his grasp of governmental and ad-
mnistrative problems, his sincerity and sound views,
gained the recognition of veteran statesmen and men
Of high culture and eduction.
As governor he has been progressive though
always erninently practical in his idealism He has
demanded and obtained efficiency and honesty in
State Offices He has fought for constructive reforms
and in his fights he has had the aid of distinguished
Republicans like Elihu Root and Charles E. Hughes
He has evinced genuine sympathy with the common
man. the factory toiler the child worker the tene-
ment dweller He has done much for the welfare of
the public in lis State He has had to deal with Re-
publican majorities in the legislature exclusively
but he has been ready all times to cooperate in
non-partisan spirit with political opponents. His
toos distinctvey numerous have been upheld uni
formly for intelligent members of both political
parties accept them based on sound reasons.

Convention Opens This
Saturday

Carpenters delegates to the con-
vention of the International Broth
erhood, which is to be held at Lake
land, Florida, will leave today in
order to arrive in time for the first
session which opens Saturday, it
was learned here today.
Among those who will attend from
New York City is Morris Rosen,
well known militant who ran against
the reactionary William L. Hutche-
son for president four years ago.
Rosen will attempt to present to the
convention the appeal of former Lo-
cal 376, which the Hutchinson ma
chine expelled from the organiza-
ton because of it's militant activi-
ties.
Before departing yesterday af-
ternoon, Rosen predicted that there
would be a strong opposition ma
chine at the convention owing to the
many issues which the officials
have sidetracked and the many
grievances which have never been
taken up.

Visitors Welcomed.
Not only are visitors welcomed in
the Soviet Union, but everything is
done to facilitate their travels about
the country. Especially is this true
when tourists arrive under the aus

agency, and is now accepting reser-
