HYDE PARK, N. Y, September IL.
President Roosevelt went into the
role Of peacemaker and conciliato-
again today with Secretary ickes,
public works administrator, coming
here for a showdown on the works re-
lief program.
Ickes, who administered the original
s3,2O0,0OO,OOO works plan. appears
concerned, according TO Washington
reports, over the distribution Of the
present $4,000, 100000 works relief
fund.
Harry L. Hopkins, present works
progress administrator, who headed
the old Civil Works Administration, is
at the other end of the argument
Hopkins believes jobs should be
supplied quickly. Ickes believes his
program for bridges and buildings
should be encouraged.
Mr.. Roosevelt apparently favors the
proposition of making jobs quickly
under the idea that Congress stipu-
lated the $4,000 100000 fund should
be spent this fiscal year.
Seeks End Of Dole.
He is determined to keep the goal
of getting 3.5000O0 persons from re-
lief rolls to work by November ana
end the dole. He also is Just as lii
tereSted. it appears. to have private
industry take up the unemployment
slack.
There is the rub. The President
seems to be giving the latter idea an
opportunity to take root. He believes
the peak OF the emergency is over
and private business will pick up con-
siderable Of the slack.
AS for the public works program
championed by Ickes, the President
stated last week he would prefer to
see the construction of permanent
structures such as buildings and
bridges, but he pointed out he was
confronted by the task OF providing
jobs Immediately.
So far as public buildings and
other permanent structures are con-
cerned. he said he must insist that
these plans be submitted Immediately
with provisions for a quick start

to Germany in particular a program
of IA points which served as the
basis for the final conclusion of peace

CONGRESS CALLED
1886 ISSUE MILL
Smell Says Roosevelt Is In
tereSted Mainly in Chang
ing Constitution.
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated HreSS.
Representative Smell OF New York
House Republican leader charged to-
day that President Roosevelt forced
"a mass of unconstitutional legisla-
ton" through the recent session of
Congress with the deliberate objective
of building up campaign issue of
changing the Constitution.
That issue, he said, the Republicans
welcome.
+ In an attack on the New Deal which
appeared in todsy's final Congress
sional Record, Smell said administra-
tion officials and others close to the
administration had revealed that the
unconstitutional" measures would give
Mr.. Roosevelt a chance to go to the
country and say he had done his
best to rectify alleged economic and
social injustices, but that organized
wealth, through the medium of Fed
eral courts, has been able to thwart
his efforts"
Admits Tactics Are Shrewd.
Dumping load of unconstitutional
legislation on the bench of the Su-
preme Court, fully aware in advance
of its inevitable decision" Smell said,
would give him the club with which
to belabor both the Supreme Court
and the United States Constitution.
There can be little doubt that such tac-
tics may be politically shrewd.
Our Constitution and our institu-
tionS are the fruit of generations Of
sober thinking and seasoned public
opinion. But the history of other ma
tions and other peoples shows that
institutions of slow growth can
be destroyed overnight by inf1amed
passions of the mob. Mob law and
mob rule are not the creation of those
dupes who practice them. but of the
artful demagogue who incites them to
riot and destruction.
THAT President Roosevelt and his
advisers intend to make an attack
upon the Constitution a part of their
campaign next year is perfectly OBJ
vious. 1t does not rest upon specula-
tion. Their record clearly indicates it."

CAMPAIGN START
DATED BY FARLEY
May Quit Cabinet After
Turn of Year, but He
Won't Say When.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Postmaster General Farley figures
that the formal" opening Of the ma
tional political campaign begins when
the States and Territories start select
ing delegates to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention. This will be soon
after the first of the year.
When the formal opening Of the
campaign arrives, it may be expected
that Farley will step out of his pres
ent cabinet post and devote his entire
time as chairman Of the Democratic
National Committee Farley declined
again today to say just when he
would retire from the cabinet. Such
announcement. he believes, should
come from the President.
Frank w. Walker. former treasurer
Of the Democratic National Commit
tee and at present director Of the Ma
tional Emergency Council. is men
toned as the probable successor to
Farley as Postmaster General. The
impression given in informed Demo-
cratic circles today was that Walker
had as good a chance for appoint
ment to the cabinet as any other -
and probably better. He is personal
friend of the President. has filled in
when needed in emergencies and
would be willing to carry on as Post
master General until after the 1886
presidential election in any event.
Confirmation Unobtainable.
If Walker has definitely been sc :
lected for the postmaster generalSh.p,
confirmation of that fact was unoD-
tainable today from Farley. Here
again Farley believes the information
should come from the President when
he is ready to make the announce
ment.
The job which Farley Is setting
himself as chairman of the national
committee is to have sent to the DEM
ocratic National Convention next year
100 per cent Roosevelt-instructed del
egations. He predicts that every State
and every territory and the District
of Columbia will instruct their dele
gates for the President when the time
comes.
He does not except Louisiana or
Georgia, the home States of two of
the Roosevelt New Deals most ardent
critics. the late Huey P. Long and
Gov. Talmadge. Farley declined to
comment on the political implications
of Senator Longs death. His in
sistance, however, that all States
would send instructed delegations to
the national convention seems proof
that the national chairman expects to
swing the Democrats in Louisiana into
line for the President. That this
could have been done had Long lived
is more than doubtful.
The Democratic chairman and Post
master General has just returned from
a trip through the West which took
him as far as Hawaii. He insists that
not only will the President be unani-
mously renominated by his own party
but that the President will be re-
elected with as big q sweep Of the
States as in 1892
THE President" said Farley, lis
not weaker in any section of the coun-
try than he was in 1882"

ROME. September l1.-Premier
Benito Mussolini's combing OF Italy
for its best available soldiers brought
an irrevocable call to the colors to-
day for $4,000 more men.
Military circles believed this would
be the last draft necessary to carry
out II Duce's promise to arm 1000 900
men before October.
The call. reaching far back 10 the
military class of 1900. was issued in
a series of war ministry DEGREES pub
lished in the official gazette.
Prepares for Long War.
The summons was taken as an in
dication of MusSolini's determination
to foresee that all is in readiness to
meet long war-either in Africa or
in Europe-with Italys most expert
enced men.
The DEGREES demanded immediate
mobilization Of radio-telegraphic ex-
perts of the class of 1910, engineers,
firSt-aid experts and ambulance
drivers Of the class Of 1912, and those
men of the class of 1918 who we're
exempted or partly exempted from
former military service.
All non-commiSsioned officers of in
fantry. artillery and engineering who
have been in retirement from the
classes Of 1900 to 1910, inclusive were
ordered to present themselves for a
23-day period of instruction.
This decree was considered by in
formed sources to affect men who have
served Italy in wartime and who
would be exempt from conscription ex-
cept under dire circumstances.
100000 Additions Promised.

troops after their vast maneuvers at

About $50, 1000 men had already been
notified to appear for service in Sep

While the $4,000 newly-called men

Immediately, 100000 other men and
boys hastily prepared for a warlike
dress rehearsal which may catch them

Informed quarters believed that the
one-day mobilization call--the only
signal for which will be the ringing
OF church bells and the sounding of
sirens throughout the land-would
be reserved for a moment deemed
critical by II Duce.
