 There was opposition to Roosevelt In that Syracuse convention, but Roosevelt was named, chiefly 1t is believed, because he left to Mrs Roosevelt the decision as to wheth- CT he would run or not. agreed with Smith.
 Smith failed to carry the state in that election. Roosevelt was elected by 28,000. And on inaugu- ration day when Roosevelt was surrounded by brilliant throngs. Smith quietly boarded train for New York, leaving the stage to his successor.
 Today, Roosevelt is the leading candidate for the democratic nom ination for president. Smith is the titular head of the party, as the candidate in the last election.
 Reports have had Smith and a fraction of the party opposing Roosevelt's nomination. Neither has spoken critically of the other.
 Neither has commented at length on the reported friction. But Smith, 1t is believed. has it within his power to prevent the nomina- ton going to his old enemy, his old friend, Roosevelt.
 Democrats scored sweeping vic- tories in the state election yester- day for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt's reforestration amend ment in minor contests. and for Tammany hall in New York city, but failed to change the political complexion of the state assembly. Their drive on republican seats in the state assembly had been based on the determination to end the republican ordered HofGtadter committee investigation of it's gov- ernment in New York city.
 Roosevelt's presidential chances were regarded enhanced by his successful championship of the re- forestration amendment, which Smith opposed. The amendment would authorize the expenditure of $19,000,000 over a period of IS years, for acquiring and reforest- Ing 100000 acres of abandoned farm lands.
 It was predicted in semi-ofilcial quarters here that Smith and Roosevelt would mend their dtf- ferences within a few days,
 While upstate cities voted half for the amendment, New York city, where Tammany and the organizations exerted their influence for it's passage, rolled up majorities.

3 BILLION PAID
FOR DRINKS

one of Americas major industries,
the Association Against the Pro

terday.
An analysis of the nations
drink bill made by the aSsocia-
tion's research department shows
that $2,848, 100000 worth Of il,
licit Intoxicating beverages are
consumed annually in the United
States.
In dividing up this huge
amount spent for liquor. the sur
vey shows $4,000, 900, 900 went for
hard liquor. 1896, 900, 900 for beer
and $3.50, 900 900 for wine.
Although the amount of beer
consumed is only one-third what
it was before the war while only
one-half as much wine is now
consumed as in 1914, the survey
shows that three times as much
money is being spent for hard
liquor. 1t also shows that the ma
tion's alcoholic bill is now $1,000
600, 900 more than in the prepro-
kibition era.
