CH|EFTAINS AT
 MEETING HELD
 IN WASHINGTON
Democratic National Com- mitteemen Primed for
 Severe Conflict
PROHIBITION, RASKOB ARE 2 MAJOR ISSUES
Attempts to Be M a de to Squelch Commitment
 on Dry, Wet Question

WASHINGTON, D. O., March 5. -Chieftains of Democracy today entered a session of the party's National Committee primed for conflict but hopeful the meeting will wind up in harmony. A double barreled threat of intra-party strife over Prohibition and of revolt against Raskob leadership hovers over the gathering.
 Prohibition issues, however, over shadowed, in preliminary talk and speculation, all other matters. It was announced today that the prin- cipal objective of the Democratic gathering was the liquidation of the party's nearly $700000 debt.
 Wet and Dry Issue
 Southern members and proxy holders, joined by representatives of New York State, came to the session determined to squelch any effort at committing the group on the wet and dry issue.
 Former Gov. Al E. Smith was on hand and stoutly maintained that Prohibition would be an unavoid- able issue in 1892.
 The former Governor, in view of recent interviews, is still very much in the picture as a Presidential candidate. When asked about Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt as a can didate, Smith said.
 l. This is not the time to discuss that. It is a matter to be decided by some one more important than I and that is the National Con- vention"
 Fire on Rask0b
 Southern Democrats led by Sen- ator Sheppard of Texas, and Nor rison of North Carolina, have op- ened fire on Raskob and Jouett Shouse, head of the Democratic Executive Committee, saying they would fight any attempt to put a wet label on the party.
 On the other hand, Senators Wagner of New York and Tydings of Maryland have pledged with their Democratic colleagues for sponsorship by the party in 1882 of outright repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment.
 Whether the committee will take definite stand on the liquor issue remains to be seen.
 On the Other Hand l Raskob's supporters point to the 1 concerted campaign which resulted ] in Democratic victories in the 1930 Congressional elections as vindica- tion of the man who has been called both the party's financial angel'' and Smiths monumental mistake"
 1 Raskob himself never has pulp licly indicated an intention to give up the post he has held since shortly after the nomination of AL fred E. Smith for President in 1928.
 Some prominent figures in the party, feeling the liquor question is loaded with dynamite oppose 1 making Prohibition major issue.
