he frequently cupped his ear with his hand when question was asked.
 Here was Oklahoma's "favorite son" candidate for the democratic presidential nomination, the politi- cal champion of the man with the empty pocketbook and the patch on the seat of his pants. He Is 4 nroduct of the depression and per haps a dangerous contender in q year of unemployment and bread lines.
 Oklahoma opinion is sharply d. yided on Murray. To the states rich old men and others of the wealthy, he is q political charlatan, faker and shyster of the first water. To the backwoods farmers in the red clay hills who are struggling to pay their taxes. Murray is the greatest champion of the common | people since Abraham Lincoln. The latter have the most votes: that ex- plains why Murray is governor to- day.

considered Smith man. There fore, the majority of the Connecti- cut delegation, being behind ex- Governor Alfred F. smith for the presidential nomination, Shouse will receive a good vote from this state. On the ther hand. the Roose- welt packers are favoring United States Senator Thomas J. Walsh or Montana for the permanent chair- manship.
 In 1924 Senator Walsh was the permanent chairman. At that time he favored William Gibbs McAdoo of California for the presidential nomination and opposed ex-Gover- nor smith. As a result q deadlock occurred and Attorney John w. Davis of New York was nominated and subsequently defeated by ex- President Calvin Coolidge. At that time Homer s. Cummings of Stam- ford was campaigning for McAdoo and opposing smith. Cummings and Senator Walsh are considered close
 Therefore, senator Walsh now seeks the permanent chairmanship once more in opposition to Smith but the packers of the ex-New York governor feel that they should have Shousc. As far as Waterbury is convened, Shouse Is the choice of his consistent opposition to Smith. both at this time and Tn 1924.

 "I was born,' said Governor Murray, 'In East Texas on Novem- Der 2I, 1869, In 8 small box house. which had h sandstone chimney and strips of board nailed over the cracks to keep out the wind and rain. My grandfather owned a nearby mill that was powered by 16 yoke of oxen on tread wheel, My father was U. D. T. Murray, a minister of the gospel
 When Murray was an infant his mother died and his father re- married. When he was 12, he and his brother ran away from home.

I hollered back: Who's Garfteld?' and the boy an- swered He's the president It was the first time had ever heard the world president; didn't know what he meant"
 Murray worked as q cotton pick CT and cordwood chopper until he was taken in by MT and Mrs F.. k. Lpper, farmers of Wise county, Texas. He spent a year there, working on the farm and attend- ing school, and then fared forth as a book agent. He worked his way through school at Springtown, Tex, and later taught school at sev- eral places.
 Eventually he was elected to the

In 1898, Murray moved to Tisho- mingo, okla, then the capital of the Chickaaaw Indian nation. He soon became attorney for the tribe. was admitted into it and q little later he married the niece of Douglas H. Johnston, governor of the nation. She was Miss Alice HearrelI, q school teacher.
 Following an unsuccessful at- tempt to carve an Indian state name "Sequoyah' out of the Indian lands, Murray joined those who were creating the state of Oklaho- ma and drafted model constitu- tion. He was elected president of the constitutional convention which met at Guthrie In 1907.
 | In 1912 and again in 1914 "Al. falfa Bill",--so nicknamed because Inc had encouraged Oklahoma farmers to plant that crop--was elected to congress.
 'Tn June of 1914" relates the governor, "I told. my audiences that the most disastrous war in history was then brewing In. Europe. They laughed at me. but they elected me. On the day after was nominated. German troops marched into Bel gium.'' .,a

 nancial angel of the party. It was Raskob's financing of the Wash ington headquarters that republi- can convention speakers denounced when they complained about the Smear Hoover" campaign. Raskob money has made republicans vince.
 Raskob, business man, former ly q republican. wringing wet, q director and vice-president of General Motors, director in many large corporations, who rose from stenographer to millionaire, was called to be Alfred F.. Smiths cam paign manager in 1928. He was susceptible to all sorts of demo- cratic campaign fund '"moochers." Some even sold him the idea he could carry republican Pennsyl- vania for the democrats If he would only spend enough money.
 So Raskob paid and paid. In re- turn he saw his campaign smashed to splinters and his candidate re- pudiated in all except eight of the 48 states, a humiliating defeat in which even four states of the solid south were lost. But Raskob dug In cheerfully to pay off debts. He obtained loans. Almost half million dollars is still unpaid.
 Now Raskob Is attempting Co collect. He wants q platform plank which will amend the 18th amend ment. He seems likely to get about what he wants--slmply because the tide is running his way. He doesn't want Roosevelt nominated--despit his protestations of neutrality. But he may lose on that. And he would like to see Jouett Shouse, who has been his chief lieutenant. elected permanent chairman of the con vention. He appears likely to lose that, also.
 Such are the rewards in politics.
 Former Governor Harry F. Byrd also was expected to arrive today with his favorite son candidacy. There is some talk of him as a vice presidential possibility. There is more talk as to where Virginia will go after leaving Byrd. Roose- welt and Newton D. Baker are the expected heirs of these "A votes.
 Former Governor Alfred F. Smith Is expected tomorrow. With his arrival the pre-convention ex- citement will rise to high pitch and continue so.

didn't work out exactly that way. Roosevelt carried his end of the load. He was elected. Smith was defeated In New York state and the nation for the presidency.
 Roosevelt's stock began to rise nightly, given this start. Smith sank into the background. Roose- welt began to be talked about As the democratic candidate for 1932. His friends launched a campaign that he did not openly acknowledge until recent months.
 Roosevelt to date has said not one word about his presidential aspirations to Smith.
 So friendship that was becom- ing famous broke up on the rocks of neglect and personal pique, small things, but such small and human things as have wrecked friendships and friend up political feuds many time before.
 There was also something else, Vague reports that Roosevelt had made disparaging remarks about Smiths abilities as governor, ut tered when the present governor first took over the reins from Smith. This has been denied by Roosevelt. But the reports persist in the half world of gossip.
 If he ever comes out publicly In his war against his old friend, smith will criticize Roosevelt on the ground that he is indecisive, does not take positive stands on issues. And 1t Is reported Smith will speak out here this week.
 smith Is the dominating type of political "boss," who demands al- legiance.
 One has only to recall, to get q picture of the real Smith. the night he stood before the 1924 demo- cratic convention in Madison Square Garden. threw out his arms in n masterful gesture, and pro- claimed proudly:

The Volstead act should be modified by congress to per init the sale of beer and light wines with a reasonable non-in- toxicating alcoholic content as is entirely within the powers of con- gress. Governmental expenses and taxation must be reduced. as the present high rates destroy all in- centive to business initiative and eat up too large share of our in- come. We cannot afford 1t.

 However, although the vote in in the national convention on the presidential nominee is to go as q unit from Connecticut for ex-GOv- ernor Smith, the vote on other mat ters will be divided in accordance with the agreement approved at the May state convention in this state.
 This means that while the ma jority of the Connecticut delega- ton will be for. Shouse, q minority led by National Committeeman Archibald McNeil of Bridgeport and Dr E. c. Dolan of Manchester will cast ballots for Senator Walsh. One of the strange political turn abouts shown. however. Is that pr Dolan of Manchester, who disup- proved of Senator Walsh's pro- McAdoo tendencies at the 1924 con vention in New York will now back him for the craftsmanship against ex-Governor Smith at the. Chicago session.
 Local delegates, all being behind the smith candidacy, will vote sol- idly with the rest of the smith packers on the question of the new national committeeman and wo- man. They will favor ex-Mayor David F. Fitzgerald of New Haven and any other woman than Mrs Fannie Dixon Welch of Columbia. who at the state convention of the Connecticut Federation of Women's Democratic clubs several weks ago in Bridgeport s'dumped" those Of- fncials who were backing the Smith for President''E movement. Mrs Henry Hayden of this city fell un- der the hammer because of her Smith support and was deprived of reelection to the, post of first vice. president of the state federatiop. In 1924 Mrs Welch remained with former National Committee woman Homer $. Cummings of stamford in the later's opposition to ex- Governor smith of New York for the presidential nomination She Is now opposing ,ex-Governor Smith again. the reason for her op- position being unknown. Her con sistency, however. is causing much | speculation.
 Therefore, the smith delegates | to the national convention from Connecticut. being in the majority. are now demanding that Governor | Wilbur L. Cross propose some names satisfactory to all. Mrs I Welch Is out of the question and so is that of National Committee I man Archibald McNeil:
 The name of Mayor Frank Hayes of this city was heard mentioned to-day but in very quiet manner. 1 However, 1t is possible that the boom for compromise candidate win lead to. his election as na- tional committceman in view of his consevative, yet consistent, stand on the matters pertaining to Con- necticut's position in the matter.

 (. President Hoover If the course of the campaign might con- trive to "interpret" the plank in q manner that would win back Borah's support though he practi- caiiy repudlated 1t. {.
 The White House had mo com- ment at this time" on the dramatic utterance which Borah roared out in the senate late yesterday before crowded galleries. President Hoov- CT did hold hurried conferences with his political advisors.
 Borah's studied and vehement denunciation of the whole republi- can platform, and the prohibition plank in particular, seemed to leave little chance for compromise.
 "I disavow and reject this plank" the Idaho orator roared, "and say I shall not be bound by it." He said it stood for nothing but repeal.
 Borah charged further that the plank-which calls for submission of a states rights" substitute for the 18th amendment--was drafted and put through the convention by men who actually stood for repeal.
 This drew quick formal denials from Postmaster General Brown and Secretary of Treasury Mills. two of MT Hoover's closest politi- cal advisors and members of the platform committee at Chicago. Brown asserted that before the con- vention Borah himself had been working on a re-submission plan.
 Borah retorted:
 That Is not true. l shall have more to say about 1t Tuesday"
 Borah withdrew his charge that Brown personally favored repeal.
 Mills said that Borah evidently misunderstood my position"
 While have not been an advo- cate of the eighteenth amendment" Mills statement said, "I have not believed that mere repeal Is the so- lution. On the contrary. l have be- come more and more convinced that the true remedy is to be found in modifying the eighteenth amend ment so as to prevent a return of the conditions which existed prior to the eighteenth amendment, and at the same time stamp out the un- deniable evils that exist to-day"
 Mills said the blanks principles could be summarized in one Sem tence-"returning to the states in- itiative, determination and respon- sibility, and retention in the feder- al government of sufficient power to attain two specifically named ob- ipcfiyas v Thega Ohiectfyea would be protection of states which chose to remain dry. and prevention of the return of the saloon.

 Roosevelt workers reply on q minimum of 40 or 45 votes of New York's 94. Should Curry lay the remainder at Rooseyelts feet. the nomination would be all bu: won. Roosevelt Is within perhaps 100 votes of the necessary two thirds majority. A break by New York probably would be followed by quick switches in other dele gat'ons. notably Missouri and Vir- Sinia,
