hours Imprisonment. was reported "in
serious condition at a hospital today.
Physicians said oxygen was admins

A few hours after KuSlishinskie was

dozen others in the vicinity.

bank of refuse coal in readiness for the
rescue.

they bound the blankets tightly about

PRESIDENT CALLS
FARLEY FOR TALK
New Deal Tactics Topic on
Campaign Front-HamiI-
ton Hits "CIique."

President Roosevelt has an engage
ment with Postmaster General Farley
, at the White House late today. and
the impression Is that some definite
announcement will be forthcoming
soon afterward, dealing with reports
that Farley is going to relinquish his
cabinet position so as to give his full
attention to the management of Mr.
Roosevelt's campaign.
Neither the President nor Farley has
denied these reports about the latter's
stepping out Of the Post Office De-
partment, and while no confirmation
has been given the reports, the belief
Is general that Farley will very short
ly either resign his cabinet Office or
else be granted an indefinite leave Of
absence. -.
Close friends of the Postmaster Cen
eral are inclined to believe he would
prefer the latter, so as to return to his
cabinet duties when the campaign Is
over.
There are others, including ardent
New Dealers, who are insisting that
Farley get out Of the cabinet and
devote his time to his Craftsmanship
of the Democratic National Commit
tee. Senator Norris OF Nebraska has
been insisting for a long time that
Farley resign from the cabinet.
President Delays Comment.
Mr.. Roosevelt said a few days ago
that he did not care to discuss the
subject until he had talked the mat
ter over with Farley. This will be
the first time the President has had
an opportunity to confer with the
Postmaster General since he made
his acceptance speech in Philadel-
phia Saturday night.
It was said at the White House
today that the Postmaster General
probably will accompany the Presi-
dent tomorrow to Skyline Drive to
take part in the formal dedication Of
the Shenandoah National Park.
William w. Howes, First Assistant
Postmaster General, has been promi-
nently mentioned as President Roose-
Ofice Department if Farley steps out.
Meanwhile, in preparation for the
big oratorical engagements ahead,
leaders in the Democratic and Repub-
lican camps devoted themselves to an
assault on each others platforms.
Describing the recent Democratic
convention as marked by "mumbo-
jumbo" Republican Chairman John
Hamilton told the Ohio Republican
convention last night that the plat
form adopted at Philadelphia was in
tended chiefly to hypnotic the vot-
ers."
