SMITH s VISIT
AWAITED BY
PRESIDENT
Al and John J. Raskob Due
At White House for Talk
Today; Politics Seen
By International News Service

By International News Service
President Roosevelt late today
will receive Alfred E. Smith.
The meeting will be a mo-
mentous one, even if, as friends
of the President insist, it should
be only a friendly chat.
After all, it has been quite a
spell since these two have sat
down together for anything of
that sort.
Smith is expected to arrive in
Washington late this afternoon.
He probably will call on the Pres
ident about 5:15 p. m.
Here for Inaugural
The 1928 Democratic standard
bearer marched with Tammany
in the inaugural parade, but did
not visit the White House.
He was in Washington on an
R. F. C. matter some time ago,
but did not drop in on the
President then, either.
A month ago, when the Chief
Executive and the First Lady at
tended the Catholic charities din
ner in New York, Smith shook
hands with them, but there was
no opportunity for a conversa-
ton.
The Happy Warrior of 1928
was here outwardly for a meet
ing of Catholic University trus-
tees. For that matter, so was
John j. Raskob, who ran
Smiths 1923 presidential cam
paign. Raskob also was listed as
a White House caller.
While Smith and Raskob are
visiting" with the President on
the second floor of the White
House, Mrs. Roosevelt will enter
tain at tea women executives Of
the War Department, Postoffice
Department, and Civil Service
Commission, the second of a
series Of such teas she has
planned for this season.
Criticized Administration
Ever since the Democratic Ma.
tional Convention in Chicago re-
lations between the two have
been little more than cool. Smith
in recent speeches, and writings,
too, has evinced a somewhat
critical attitude toward a few Of
the ADMINISTRATORS policies.
Smith himself said before leav-
ing New York that his White
House invitation was, so far as
he knew, just for social call.
At the same time, the meeting
gave rise to more than a little
speculation as to its possible
consequences. Admins s tration
officials conceded privately it was
not unreasonable to suppose Mr..
Roosevelt might ask the former
New York governor how things
were going in New York.
N. Y. Situation Serious
President Roosevelt remained
aloof from the recent mayoralty
campaign in New York city and
Postmaster General Jim Farley
backed the independent candi-
date, Joseph v. Mckee. Smith. a
former power in the Tammany
wigwam, failed to back the tiger
in the municipal contest.
Tammany took a licking. but
so, too, did Mckee, and Fiorella
LaGuardia. a Republican, won. It
was held here only a matter Of
time when the Administration
would begin the job Of setting
it's New York State Democratic
house in order. With things as
they are, political railbirds here
were quick to point out that a
real reconciliation between the
Administration and Smith could
bring effective results.
Widely circulated reports that
Smith was under consideration to
succeed Gen. Hugh S. johnson
as recovery administrator were
denied in the highest quarters.

.LOURDES VIRGIN
CANON|ZED BY
RARE RITES

VATICAN CITY, Dec. 8 G.N.S0.
In a ceremony rare but tradition
ally one of the most elaborate in
Christendom, Pope Plus XII today
canonized Bernadette Soubirous,
Of Lourdes, whose vision in the
little French town made it a
shrine of world renown.
More than $4,000 pilgrims,
many of whom claimed to have
been cured at LourdeS, journeyed
to Rome for the ceremony, held
in st. Peters cathedral with a
colorful procession Of the highest
dignitaries in the Catholic church.
Hears Three Pleas
All of the religious orders of
the Vatican were represented in
the procession.
The rites proclaiming Berna-
dette a saint lasted for more
than an hour. The Pope, seated
on his throne before the altar,
listened to three separate pleas
for the French woman's canoni-
zation, delivered by consiStory
attorneys, before he formally pro-
nounced the words which gave
her sainthood.
The College of Cardinals, in
brilliant robes, lent much color
to the occasion, as did 81 French
bishops, led by Monsignor La
Maitre, who was healed by Ber-
nadette.
Celebrates First Mass
Following the actual canoniZa-
tion, the pontiff celebrated the
first mass in honor of the new
saint.
After this, the procession filed
out again, the Pope borne high
on the gestatorial chair, attend
ed by the prelates of his court
and the brilliantly uniformed
Swiss guards.
Living with her parents in
poverty in the little village of
Lourdes, in southwestern France,
Bernadette went out one day to
gather firewood.
She came near a great white
rock and there had a vision of
the Holy Virgin, LADY in
white" who bade her ask the
parish priest to establish a cure.
Water From Rock
Bernadette, who was IA at the
time, was so persistent in telling
and re-telling her story that an
investigation was begun. Soon
water began gushing from the
rock, forming the spring in which
great healing properties now are
attributed.
After 1873 sessions Of inquiry,
the case went to Rome.
