welt for the presidential nomination,
according to the belief Of some New
York Democrats, will within a short
while bring a determination of whether
Mr.. Smith will continue to allow him.
self to be considered as a possibility
for denomination or will come out def
nitely in support Of Gov. Roosevelt.
Want Smiths Attitude.
While no definite steps have yet been
taken, 1t was admitted by friends OF
Gov. Roosevelt yesterday that there Is
a possibility of an early showdown with
the supporters of former Gov. Smith:
While Mr.. Smith has done nor said
nothing against the candidacy of the
man who fought for him through three
Democratic National Conventions, he
has not indicated that he Is now will
ing to step aside for his old champion,
Gov. Roosevelt. Without bitterness
toward Mr.. Smith, some of Gov. Roose-
velt's friends feel that he and the pub
lie are entitled to know where Mr..
Smith stands with regard to Gov.
Roosevelt's chances.
In that connection the action OF the
National Committee in approving a
plan for a professional public and
money! raising organization to survey
the field to liquidate the party debt
was looked upon as paving the way
for Mr.. Smiths ally, Mr.. Raskob, to
step out of party control when the
deficit is wiped out. In other words,
the Roosevelt forces are foregathering
for the 1892 drive, and one of their
first endeavorS will be to ascertain def
nitely whether the Smith Raskob COM
bination is to be for or against them.
Assured Of SupDOrt
Gov. Roosevelts friends at the
National Committee meeting received
assurances, both from the South, which
Gov. Smith lost, and from the Rocky
Mountain States, which voluntarily
fought for him, that the New York
governor is in great and growing favor.
A number of National Committeeman,
particularly from Western States, have
called upon Gov. Roosevelt on their
way home from the National Committee
meeting. They include Isadore Dock
weller of California and Alexander
Scott Bullitt of Washington State. The
governor has also been assured OF sup
port from New England States.
Gov Roosevelt is said to be under no
illusions that he can run as dry, nor
are his supporters from the politically
dry provinces. They have told Mr..
Roosevelt'S friends that, If the Demo-
cratic party must go wet. they would
rather follow it with Gov. Roosevelt
as its wet advocate than to follow Mr..
Smith or a candidate dictated by him
or Mr.. Raskob.

until the committees next meeting. He
declined to comment on the action of
Texas newspaper which today started
gathering free-will contributions to pay
off Raskob" and loosen his grip as head
Of the party.

.RASKOB REPORTED
READY TO RESIGN
Induced to Keep Post Long
Enough to Pay Off Party'S
Debts.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March THE COM
bined victory of the Roosevelt Demo
Gratis of New York and the Southern
and Western members of the Demo
cratic National Committee on the pro-
hibition issue at its meeting in Wash
ington last week was so complete that
on the night before the committees
met, Chairman John j. Raskob in
dicated his readiness to resign the helm
of the party, the Herald Tribune says
today.
According to reports brought back
from Washington by friends of Gov
Roosevelt, Mr. Raskob apparently was
fully determined to bring the question
of State control of the liquor traffic to
vote in the National Committee until
it was demonstrated to him in con-
ference that he not only did not have
the votes to win, but that he would be
defeated in a manner which would
strongly accentuateF the antipathy which
has been shown toward his leadership
particularly in the South.
The situation was made completely
clear to Mr.. Raskob, it is said, on
the night before the committee met in
the Mayf1ower Hotel, by former Coy.
Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, in close
alliance with Senator Cameron Nor
rison of North Carolina. The confer
ence is said to have brought to some
thing of climax the opposition to the
Raskob leadership which has frequently
been attacked by Southern Democratic
leaders.
Urged TO Hold On.
When Mr.. Raskob announced that he
not only would not seek to press his
views to an unsuccessful issue in the
committee but If the Southern and
other inSurgent leaders felt it would be
Of benefit to the party he would be
willing to offer his resignation. Mr..
Byrd is said not only to have diSuaded
the chairman from that course but to
have insisted that since he had led the
party to defeat and deficit of 81 $780,
600, some of which still remains, 1t
was his duty to retain his post as chair
man until the obligations which his
leadership had incurred had been liqui-
dated That statement Of the situation,
is understood to have left Mr.. Raskoh
with the impression that no other salts
factory course was open to him.
The fortnight action of the New
York State Democratic Committee in
opposing Mr.. Raskob's plan to put the
National Committee on record on pro-
hibition as a catechism to the Demo-
cratic National Convention held an ap-
peal to the politically dr. sectors, which
is believed to have strengthened the
presidential aspirations Of Gov. Rocse-
welt materially. In view of the fact
that former Gov. Alfred E. Smith,
Democratic presidential candidate of
1928, is aligned with Mr.. Raskob and
has not indicated where he stood with
regard to the supporters of Gov. Roove-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-03-08

and the Chief Executive he said, has
thrown an increased burden On the
men who are elected to represent the
people of the Nation In Congress, and
who-f they are true representatives os
their onstituentS-should properly be
expected to give heed to the problems
which confront the Nation as q whole. !"

simply of giving to the Democratic
party business organization" which
will enable 1t, as he thinks, to carry the
country on behalf of the views which
he believes the party should adopt.
This Is, in itself, it might truly be
said, tremendous and sufficient am
bition. Mr.. Raskob is out to give to the
Democratic party both a new ma
chinery and new philosophy.
On the point of machinery he has al
ready galvanized the Democratic Ma
tional Committee headquarters at
Washington into being the most ener-
getic and the most influential headquar-
tiers that his party has ever had here.
On the point of philosophy he now pro-
poses two things. One is that his party
should take the unprecedented step
unprecedented for either party-of
making the merits of the eighteenth
amendment political issue. The other
Is, essentially, that his party, instead
of being critic of contemporary CAPT.
talism, should be a co-operator with IT..
Bold, But Great Man.
When one reflects that Thomas JEFF
ferson was so Skeptical OF all industry
that he regarded it as nothing better
than a disagreeable appendage to agri-
culture, 1t would seem that Mr.. Ras-
kob has undertaken to give to the
Democratic party the equivalent almost
| of a new soul. One of Mr.. Raskob's
largest enterprises in private life is the
formation of investment trusts through
which wage earners can become bene-
ficiaries of increased stock market val
ues in the securities of the corpora
tons by which they are employed.
Thomas Jefferson would have made
everybody into farmer. Mr.. RaSkob
| would make everybody into a capital
ist, large or small. He wishes to re-
model the Democratic party into a
party that will help him at it.
He is big bold man, this little quiet
man, Mr.. Raskob.

BUTLER PREDICTS SPLIT
IN BOTH MAJOR PARTIES

BY the Associated Press.
HOUSTON, Tex. March 7.-Nicholas
Murray Butler predicts both major po-
litical parties will be split in the next
presidential campaign, with candidates
forced to take definite stands on prohi-
bition and economic problems.
The president Of Columbia University,
en- route to Los Angeles with Mrs. But
Ter and their daughter, voiced his views
here last night.
DR.. Butler, describing the eighteenth
amendment as "a false principle of gov
eminent" advocated its repeal and the
placing Of liquor control in the hands
of the States.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-03-08

same time, they believe he can carry
the wet States of the North and EaSt
largely because he is for modification
of the prohibition laws.
Vets May Force Issue.
Within the next Is months it may bt
possible for the extreme wet Democrats
Raskob and Smith and others, to force
Roosevelt's hand on this wet issue. But
it is likely that Roosevelt will continue
to cling to economic issues as the main
part of his platform for the nomina-
ton.
Democratic leaders in Congress, eSpe-
cially Senator Robinson of Arkansas,
Democratic leader of the Senate, and
Senator-elect Cordell Hull, have been
particularly aroused by. the discussion
of economic issues made by MIR. Raskob
at the National Committee meeting.
They insist he is reactionary and that
he is striving to make the Democratlc
party the party of big business. Inc
congressional Democrats almost 10
man are against Raskob's plan OF haV-
ing the Democratic platform contain
recommendation that the Constitution
be amended so as to permit any State
to have liquor law of its own making.
Raskob. therefore, is under flre from
two angles.
Thomas B. Love, former Democratic
national committeeman from TeXaS,
who attended the National Committee
meeting here last week as proxy OF the
Oregon national committeeman, issued
a statement last night attacking Raskob
and his plan for amending the Constl-
tuition. Love left the Democratic ticket
in 1923 and supported Hoover against
Smith. The veteran Texas politician
said, in part:
Says Hoover VIII Defeat Repeater.
mr.. Raskob requested suggestions
other than his own for the next Demo-
cratic national platform. I want to
suggest a plank for that platform on
which every Democrat can stand and
behind which every Democrat can hight
for party success, viz:
The Democratic party stands even
as Andrew Jackson stood, against multi
fication and for the Union, the Consti-
tuition and the enforcement of the law.
"A Democrat who stands by precept
and example, for this simple declara-
ton, If nominated by the Democratic
Herbert Hoover and be elected Presi-
dent of the United States. Hoover has
declared his position as against the re-
peal of the eighteenth amendment and
in favor of its enforcement. The only
way to get the liquor question out Of
politics is TO nominate a Democrat
whose position is precisely the same as
his on this controversial question.
Hoover will defeat any repeater or nulli-
fer who might be nominated in 1882
and his majority would be nearer TO-
ooO, 900 than the 100000 by which he
won in 1928, while any acceptable pro-
greSsive Democratic nominee who is
against repeal and notification will be
Overwhelmingly elected.
But this is purely academic. The
result of the National Committee meet
ing certainly presages that no man who
stands for repeal or notification of the
eighteenth amendment will be nomi-
mated at the Democratic national con-
vention of 1882. 1t presages a great
progressive Democratic victory in 1884,"

 Play yClairmOunts

Shorty" Guglielmo's East End Colts, contenders for the junior city grid title, will work out under the mazdas at Hamilton park at 2 o'clock tonight in preparation for their all important tilt with the Claimonts at Fulton park Sunday afternoon. Coach Luddy Burke will be on hand to drill the boys and palish off the plays which will be used in the city title contest. The Colts are out for revenge on the Town Plot eleven because of their dastardly deed last Sunday when they pitched in and helped the Hopeville team to beat "Shor- tvs club after the Colts had played the South Waterbury aggregation to standstill in the first half. A win for the out casters will give them rightful claim to the city championship. Manager Guglielmo will take his entire squad of IS to the Yale Bowl Saturday after noon to witness the Yale-St Johns tilt. Following the game they will put up at the teams summer headquarters at Lake Hitchcock, until just before game time.

 Hot Preli1ns
 Mike Toronto of Bridgeport and Billy Donahue of New York, a stablemate of Shades, will provide the eight round semi-finai. Dona- hue better be pretty clever to keep away Michael, if he wants to win.
 Carmen Knapp of New Haven who looked like a little champion in his last showing here about two weeks ago, will mix 1t with Tony Laverio of Bristol in a return bout of six rounds, which will be a hummer from gong to gong. They met in Hartford this past sammer, Laverio being stopped, but not be- fore the battle was rated a thriller. Both boys are fighters, end that's all that's needed for what pleases the fans most.
 Boxer vs. Fighter
 Sal Carter of Middletown and Joe Oliver of New Haven are to hook up in six round special which will pit Sal's boxing skill and speed against Oiiver's wallop and shark skin. It looks good from any angle.
 Johnny Sims of Naugatuck with two knockouts to remember for his first two money bouts, has Gus Winkleman of New York to con- tend with in the four round open- ing spot. If Gus can't take 1t" the battle may not reach the fourth. The gpys will get going about S:30 o'clock. Admission $t, $1.50 and $2.B0.
