GOV. ROOSEVELT
ROLLS UP 323
DELEGATES

Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt
pushed his pledged and instructed
delegate strength in the Demo
cratic national convention up to
323 today as Montana and New
Mexico fell into his column via
the convention route.
At the same time, former Gov.
Alfred E. Smith approached the
century mark by acquiring New
Jerseys 80 delegates in yester-
days primary, and Connecticut'S
16 in a State convention.
Smith Holds "a
Smith is now runner-up to
Roosevelt in the matter of dele
gates actually instructed and
pledged with "a. Speaker John N.
Garner is in third place with 90.
Smith has captured four States
outright-Connecticut, MasSachu-
sets, New Jersey and Rhode
Island. Garner has his own Texas
and California.
Neither the Roosevelt or Smith
figures include any delegates from
New York and Pennsylvania
which between them have ITO del
egates, nor from the six Territories
and the District of Columbia,
which between them have 80.
Here are 202 delegates, nearly
one-fifth of the convention, which
are in dispute and probably will
remain so right UP to convention
time.
Up to Two States
If Roosevelt gets them, then
even the most optimistic of the
stop Roosevelt" leaders cannot
see much hope of defeating the
New York governor at Chicago.
More and more, it is becoming
apparent that New York and Penn
sylvania probably will tell the tale
as between the Roosevelt and anti
Roosevelt forces, particularly New
| York.

WARSAW, May 18 UN.S0.-
story of pro-Soviet espionage car
ried out by two men and caba'
ret dancer was unfolded today.
Details of their activities were
revealed following execution Of
the two men and sentencing Of
the girl to life imprisonment.
The men were Joseph Bonkow-
ski, an architect, and Ladislav
Berakowski, employed by the
Polish general staff. Bonkowski
was hanged and Berakowski was
put to death by a firing squad.
The girl is Vera Bajewska,
charged with delivering secret
Polish military data to Soviet
officials at various border sta
tionS.
1t was the attempt of the trio
to disguise themselves as persons
of leisure that led to their un-
doing. Their reckless expendi-
ture of money in bars and night
clubs aroused suspicion and gov
ernment agents were put on Cnelr
trail.
The information delivered to
Soviet Russia by the spies, &C.
cording to a government an
nouncement, included documents
relating to Polish ornaments,
especially details of border fortifi-
cations. They also gave the
Soviets a full list of Polish intel
ligence officers and agents To-
Gated in Russia.

was spared the necessity of de-
Gliding which of his spokesman
quoted him correctly on army

quoting his party chief. Beedy

ligerents but took possession of
the official copy of their heated

PARTY FINANCES
AND DRY ISSUE
STALK HOOVER

Prohibition and party finances
are proving to be twin problems
Of no mean proportions to Presi-
dent Hoover and the Republican
National Committee.
Despite the weight Of the eco
nomic situation, the President has
found time to give serious atten-
tion to both matters during the
past few days.
. With the Chicago convention
only four weeks off, vets are max.
ing what appears to be a final
concerted drive to force Mr..
Hoover to loosen UP a bit" on
the question Of prohibition.
From all indications, however,
the Executive will maintain his
stand Of silent aridity until after
he has been re-nominated and the
platform written.
The President is finding the
question of party finances dis
ltressingly inGerwined with the pro-
hihitin problem. National Treas
nrer ]. r. Mutt, Postmaster Gen
eral Walter r. Brown, Eastern
Treasurer jeremiah Milbank, and
others have reported to the White
House that men who have come
through handsomely in the past
to promote the cost Of a national
campaign are holding off because
OF the party's lack of decision on
the wet-dry issue.

ADOLF HITLER IS LOSING SOME
 OF HIS FRIENDS
Two of His Chief Aides Are on the Outs With Him TO-day-Internal Crisis Nears

Berlin. Dec 9-(UP)-Two of Adolf Hitler's chief adies were al odds with him to-day, aggravating an internal crisis in the fascist ranks. Gottfried Feeder, an econ omic expert and author of the party's program, asked Hitler for a vacation from his official duties. Feder referred to information re- ceived from Gregor Strasser, Hitler aide who was granted three weeks absence on ''sick leave," that Hitler had decided to dissolve the Nazi economic department. Dissolution would cost the party millions of votes, Feeder said.
 Rumors of a split between Stras- ser and Hitler persisted in political quarters. Strasser had urged CO., operation with Gen Kurt Von Schleicher, new chancellor, to which Hitler is opposed.
 It was rumored in parliamentary circles that Dr Prick, one of Hit ler's closest advisors, and Alfred Rosenberg, editor of the newspaper Voelkischer Beobachter,. were also dissatisfied with Hitler's direction of the party and were considered u vacation"

Sir John believed that the con- troverSy between the British and Persian governments would be set- tied amicably. Britain issued an ultimatum to Persia yesterday de- manding that cancellation be with drawn as a breach of international law.) He added, however, that he expected the Persian attitude to be revised, in which case it was likely he would go to Teheran to discuss possibly revision of the concession"
 T refuse to believe that even in her widest moments Persia really seriously contemplates turning us out and violating our vested inter- ests with one stroke of the pen after all we have done for Persia, :" Sir John said.
 He described the romance of the oil pioneers 30 years ago and told how they built schools, hospitals, railways and homes in Persia which, Following in the wake Of oil expansion, transformed a des- ert into a hive of industry and Nomadic tribes into a happy peo- pie dwelling in settled homes
 Commenting on rumors that Soviet Russia might have offered the Persian Shah higher oil roy- alties than those paid by the Brit ish company (the reports were de- nied both at Moscow and by Per- sian officials at London) Sir John said:
 T cannot imagine that Persia would be unmindful and fall back on Russia, or act at Russia's insti- gation."

 Appearing for Mann and Herring, former State Attorney General Al- bert Ottinger said:
 "I am hoping it will not be nec- essary to impose prison sentence on these men, high in their com- munities and whose lives and ca- feers have been exemplary"
 Ottinger reviewed the public careers of his clients, and charac- terized Herring as "humanitarian of nationwide note" He emphasiz- ed that the crime was technical, and that no moral turpitude was involved, and pointed out that his clients had given every assistance, to the government, willingly pro- ducing all books and documents and cooperating throughout the case with Assistant District Attor- ney Lewis B. Treadwell.
 Treadwell announced that he Lad no objection to releasing the defendants in custody of their counsel, and Judge Coleman sign ed the release, which provides for a To-day stay of execution to per- init the lawyers to perfect their ap- peal.
 The prison sentences were inn posed on each of two counts, but are to run concurrently.
 Associated with General Ottinger in the appeal was Congressman Samuel B. Pettengill of South Bend.

ley allegations thoroughly before issuing any comment.
 In Washington circles, however, the fight was the subject of much comment with wide and varied comments on the matter. Some predicted victory for Gormley while others seemed to favor Goss. Some members pointed out that in past contests of a similar nature have shown victory most times for the incumbent.
 Judging from past records, 1t was also said in Washington, it appears that the demand of MT Gormley may be postponed for many months and meanwhile Con- gressman Goss will occupy his seat in the coming new session of con- gress.
 The comment on the Goss- Gorm- ley battle was great and widespread in the city today and everywhere information was being sought by voters as to new developments. Congressman Goss, however. has sixty or ninety days in which to make a reply to the charges pre- ferred by Judge Gormley.

 The democrats hope to restrain President Hoover from filling any vacancies until March 4th and thus getting democratic party followers picked by President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, working in conjunc- ton with a senate that will then be democratic.
