OF TAKING ILLINOIS
Hears Favorable Reports on
Trip to ChiCago-ReturnS
to Albany.
BY the Associated Press

By The Associated Press
ALBANY, N. Y, August II AT an
hour this morning when ordinarily he
still would have been sound asleep, Gov.
Smith got back to Albany from Chi
cago, where he attended the funeral
of George E. Brennan, Illinois Demo-
cratic leader
Confronted with the task Of whipping
his acceptance speech into final form,
the Democratic presidential nominee
went from the train to the executive
mansion, where he planned during the
day and over the week end to apply
himself to that job The governor also
was expected, with members of his fam
lily, to listen in there this evening to
the address of his rival, Herbert Hoover,
at the Republican nominees notification
in California,
Optimistic Over Illinois.
Although he went to Chicago on a
nonpolitical mission, Smith received
fragmentary reports during chats there
with various party leaders as to the OUT
look in the Middle West. particularly
in Illinois. Floyd Z. Thompson, Demo-
cratic nominee for governor, was among
those most optimistic about the chances
of carrying Illinois in November.
AS he passed through northern lndi~
ana and Ohio late yesterday and last
night, Gov. Smith, in accordance with
his wishes, was met by no political lead
ers. At the few stations at which ms
train stopped, however, he was greeted
by crowds of varying sizes, ana as a
rule stepped from the train to shake
hands and exchange pleasantries, minus
his coat and vest and wearing bedroom
slippers.
Although there was tendency to
keep politics 10 the background during
the trip, the Democratic nominee was
able during his journey to discuss
strategy and plans with two men active
" identified with his campaign~-Mayor
Frank Hague Of Jersey City, who Is
vice chairman of the Democratic ma
tional committee and an lntimatet
friend Of the governor, and James j.
Hoey of New York, one OF the members
of his campaign executive committee
Roth were travel companions OF the
nominee. along with William +, Kenny,
who is a New York millionaire, and IN
whose private car the governor tFaVeieu
James j. Rlordan. another New YORK
friend, and Smiths son Arthur
Debate Also on Hand
On his return to Albany, which for
the present is his campaign seat, the
governor had before him not only many
hours Of work polishing off his accept
ance speech which win be delivered
here a week from Wednesday evening,
but decisions on other campaign de-
velopmentS.
Among these were the question OF a
debate on his political career with Dr
John Roach Straton, Baptist minister
of New York, which Smith himself
proposed should be held IN Stratons
church and which the clergyman has
suggested be held also In st, Patrick =
Cathedral in New York. The governor
is expected To adhere to his original
challenge--one meeting~~and that In
the church where DR.. Straton charged
the nominee was the greatest foe to
moral progress IN America.
