TAMMANY TIGER
Still SNARL|NC
Smith, Raskob Man,
Seems Victor

Tammany Hall, which has, under
instructions from Big Business, been
ruling New York for some time
now, practically admits it can't rule
itself.
The executive committee of Tam
many Hall tried for spirited hour
and half yesterday to elect a
leader to succeed George Olvany, re-
signed, without success.
Then they admitted failure and
named a committee of seven to wait
upon former Governor Alfred E.
Smith, Mayor James j. Walker, Sur
rogate James Foley and Senator
Wagner with orders to go thru the
formality of finding out who is ac-
ceptable to those four.
Seems Smith Victory.
When the meeting adjourned at
G p. m. and the announcement of the
action taken was made, observers
Immediately interpreted it as VIC
tory for Smith.
Smith took Raskob, an official of
General Motors Morgan and Mel
lon) as his campaign manager in
the presidential race, so there is a
pretty sure indication that the 81
lent men of money are going to de-
eide on a Smith man as the next
dispenser of patronage.

Owned Fleet.

BY the Associated Press.
The sale by the Shipping Board of
the Leviathan and 10 other ships yes
terday to p w. Chapman, Inc, for
$16,300000 marks the beginning of an
other chapter in the already colorful
history Of the famous liner.

the giant craft was used in transport
ing troops to and from France until
after the signing of the armistice
Then she was remodeled into palatial
passenger ship and turned over to the
Shipping Board for operation.
With her sale to the Chapman in
terests, she now becomes the flagship
of the first privately owned American
fleet to compete for the lucrative North
Atlantic passenger trade. The Levia-
than is still the largest steamer afloat,
although bigger vessel is now being
built In England.
Final action In the transfer by the
Shipping Board of the United States
Lines, OF which the Leviathan Is part,
and the five passenger cargo ships of
the American Merchant Line was taken
yesterday shortly after the Senate
commerce committee announced that it
would not interfere with the sale
Transfer of the physical properties
involved in the sale probably will be
made to the Chapman firm within two
weeks.

CLASSIC So FAR
NOT PROTESTED
Opposition to Chevy Chase
Man for Associate JUS
tiCe Uncertain.

Although it is regarded as probable
that the nomination of Henry H. Glas-
sic of Chevy Chase, Nd, to be an as
sociate Justice of the District Supreme
Court will meet with some opposition at
the Capitol, no protests had been filed
with the Senate judiciary committee
today, and indications we're not very
definite as to the possible extent of OPP
position.
The judiciary committee will meet
Monday morning. at which time the
Classic appointment probably will be
referred to q subcommittee. Whether
there will be hearings will depend on
what communications the committee re-
ceivcs regarding the nomination. II
hearings should be found necessary
there would not be much time left for
consideration of the nomination by the
Senate, in view of the short time re-
naming before adjournment Of this ses-
sion.
Reports that Mr.. Classics non1ina-
ton would encounter difhculty are based
partly on the fact that he was the sub
iect of senatorial controversy several
wears ago while O member OF the Tariff
Als
In Congress at that time for participant
ing in the commissions sugar investi-
CATION, while his wife was financially
interested In sugar plantation in
Louisiana.
One of the Senators who followed
closely the discussions regarding Mr..
Classic in connection with the Tariff
Commission indicated today, however,
that he has not made up his mind
what his attitude will be toward con-
firmation Of Mr.. Classic for the judg-
ship. This Senator said he wanted to
study the question before deciding what
his position would be regarding this
appointment.
1t is likely that after the nomination
has been pending for few days there
will be more definite signs as to whether
or not the nomination will be seriously
opposed.
