DEMOCRATS OF WASHINGTON TO AID ROOSEVELT
State Convention Gives h. structions to Chicago | Delegation

TACOMA, Wash, Feb 8.-The Washington State Democratic Con- vention instructed it's delegation to the party's National Convention in Chicago next June, to work as unit for the nomination of Gov Franklin ID. Roosevelt for the Pres idential nomination.
 The convention went on record urging abrogation of the two thirds rule.
 The delegates refused to take a stand against American participa- tion in the League of Nations and World Court.
 It was a noisy state convention which was held here Saturday.
 There was fight over a resolu- tion denouncing the League and this was bitterly contested. The resolution was defeated by vote of 5281s to 4S51a.
 After the Resolutions Committee had rejected a plank, the conven- tion adopted a compromise plank on Prohibition favoring a referen- dunn on whether the Eighteenth Amendment should be retained or modified to permit state control of liquor. The referendum will be by a direct vote of the people.

 CAMPAIGN PLANNED
Will Not Support, Oppose Any Candidate Prev

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.-Alfred E.. Smith will accept the Democratic presidential nomination if it is offered to him, he said, but he will make no preconvention campaign.
 Smiths statement, in part, says:
 'If the Democratic convention, after careful consideration, should decide it wants me to lead, I will make the fight but I will not make @ preconvention campaign to secure support of delegates.
 Is Party Leader
 By the action of the conven- ton in 1928 I am leader of my party in the nation and with a full sense of the responsibility thereby imposed.
 T shall not, in advance of the convention, either support or opp ose the candidacy of any aspir- ant for the nomination
 The statement was handed to 46 newspapernen last Saturday afternoon with the caution that it was not to be published before Monday morning.
 Question Asked, Answered
 Former Gov. Smith was asked. Does this permit your friends to enter your name in the various state primaries at which conven- tion delegates are to be elected, , and he replied:
 Without campaign do not see how a fellow can get any delegates"
 Smith said the prospects for party victory were decdely brighter than last time. He refused to dis cuss Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt's Prohibition statement, the League of Nations or any other issues.
