PLANS Shown
BY ROBINSON
Dem v. P. Nominee
Has Praise for Party
After N. Y. Meet

ST. LOUIS, July 14.-tP)-Senstor
Joseph r. Robinson Of Arkansas, en-
route 70 Hot Springs, where he will
rest and start work on ais speech of
acceptance of the democratic vice
presidential nomination, arrived here
unheralded late today, and gave a
sketchy outline of the campaign.
He greeted reporters. but %announc-
ed all questions he chose TO answe
would be answered in a dictated
statement.
First" he said. Il am gratified
at the spirit displayed in the meet
ing Of the democratic national COM
mittee and in the conference in
which l participated relating to or
ganiZation and campaign procedure
The lines Of battle Of this cam
paign are notably different in some
particulars from those which have
been formed in previous contests. II
is my expectation that in addition to
the general headquarters, regional
headquarters or bureaus will be es-
tablished and that the organization
will extend to every part of the coun-
try. 50 that he democratic cause
will be presented fairly and effect
lively to the voters of the nation.
II is not practicable for me at
this time to make a more detailed
statement. 1t is known that in all
probability the extent Of their ac-
t~ivities will be ascertained in ample
time to enable us to offset any de-
lection which may come up in that
quarter.
Il am receiving daily messages
from many parts Of the South indi-
eating the vote for the democratic
national ticket will be larger than
ever before. / can only add to this
an expression of my conviction that
every southern state will cast its
full electoral vote for the nominees
Of the democratic party"
Governor Smiths running mate ap-
peared pleased over the selection Of
John ]. Raskob for chairman Of the
democratic national committee. Cues
toned about prohibition, he said his
stand would be made clear in the ac-
ceptance speech.
