Smith FORCE
HAS DAY

Nomination on First
Ballot Seems Sure
Friends Say; Reed
Continuing Fight
BY BRIAN BELL
Associated Press Staff Writer

AN1O~A8&EA AtC13 &0A
HOUSTON, June 27.-RESup-
porters Of Governor Smith from his
home state liked the first day Of the
democratic convention. Under their
pacific policy of trying to get along
with everybody, the peaceful events
OF the two sessions were highly salts
factory.
The New York leaders believe their
friend and neighbor will be nominal
ed for the presidency some time to-
morrow. Earlier forecasts pointed to
the balloting Friday, but later sug-
gestions have been hat while dele
gates to the convention are not su-
perstitious, il would seem just as
well TO nominate Thursday as Fri
day.
From the first the Smith leaders
have said that they were prepared TO
let the convention take its normal
course. Confident that Smiths nom
iEation vas inevitable, they declared
nothing was being done 70 hurry it.
Now a statement has ONE from
Smith headquarters that indications
point to a first ballot nomination. II
such is the will Of the convention,
said George r. Van Nance, speaking
for his colleagues, the men most act
lively behind the campaign of the
New York governor can only ac-
quiesce gracefully in the decision.
The nomination Of Governor Smith
by Franklin ID. Roosevelt probably
will be seconded by six speakers, five
men and a woman. Mrs. Nellie Tay-
loe Ross, former governor OF Wyom-
ing, will say a word for the New
York governor. Mrs. Ross is a 'dry."
Another "dry" expected TO make a
seconding speech for Smith is Sen
ator Barley Of Kentucky.

Reed Seeking Aid
OF Smith Enemies
BY FRANCIS NJ. STEPHENSON
Associated Press Staff Writer

aI6nOAAAtEA AG0S A9A
HOUSTON. June 27.-tPl-Brush-
ing aside talk Of the vice presidency,
Senator Reed Of Missouri was rally
ing his forces about him for a fight
to the finish on the presidency today
rs his allies from the South against
Givernor Smith turned their atten-
ton TO the impending battle for a
dry plank in the platform.
The militant Missourian gave for
NAL notice again last night that he
meant business when he issued a
statement denying q story published
in an early edition of a Houston pa
per indicating that Reed and his
friends were now looking longingly
at the vice presidency.
Eve will carry on the fight in
good faith 20 the very end and hope
to win," he said. eve have not made
any trades for or considered any
other position than the presidency.
] have refused at least 100 times to
permit discussion or consideration Of
that matter"
Earlier in the night. Reed had is
sued a new blast against Herbert
Hoover and his war record as food
administrator, charging that the re-
publican nominee had fixed prices on
American farm products during the
war for the purpose Of benefitting
the British and the Allies. The state
ment was part of his drive for the
presidency and included a plea for
farm relief along any lines constitu-
tional.
But the drys from the Southland
were less inclined to think about the
presidency today as the mounting
tide Of Smith strength seemed to as
SUI his nomination on an early bal
lot and they were busily engaged in
the desperate contest TO obtain at
least a dry plank in the platform.
