Spectators Say Former Gov.

Senate.

NEW YORK, December 2.-Alfred
e. Smiths criticism of the monetary
and public works policies of the Roose-
welt administration has started specula-
ton in political quarters here as to
whether the former Governor is bidding
for leadership Of the conservative ele-
ment in the Democrat party.
Smiths editorial demand for return
to the gold standard and his assertion
that the public works program had
failed, came only fortnight after he
had made q social call on President
Roosevelt at the White House.
There have been recurring reports
that the former Governor, his party S
candidate for President in 1928, might
seek the Democratic nomination TOR
United States Senator next year. The
term of Senator Royal s. Copeland, a
Democrat, expires at that time.
To these reports Smith has remained
silent. He could not be reached today
for comment on the possibility that he
might seek to organize the party's right
wing.
Complete Break Seen.
The New York Sun. discussing
Smiths editorials, said:
Smith has now broken completely
away from Roosevelt and it will be sur
pristng If the Happy Warrior does not
step to the front as the recognized ex-
ponent Of the conservative faction OF
the party. ,,.,..

United States Senator next year II the
political set-up In this State lends ITSELF
to his candidacy.

long time. but Smith has shown no IN

In this connection, observers COM

regularity. They recalled, too. that he
remained silent during the municipal
campaign last month in which the Tam
many candidate, Mayor John P O'Brien,

Discussion Of Smiths name in con-
nection with the senatorship next year.
has been linked with talk Of new State
tickets and of change in Tammany lead

There have been reports that Post
master General Farley might seek the
Governorship, either next year or in 1886

OF the National party should material
