A1DSEAk VuDS 1AkkSS UU &0E 4t0s At this meeting it was decided to attach Q string to the support which LaPollette, ghipstead and other Senators who favor the New Deal are willing to give the Presi- dent in November.
 This string is . prOvlso sAat Jim Farley and the Democratic National Committee keep hands of Che political situation in their states.
 The left-wingers arc very bitter over such Interference. While they are giving their all to uphold the hand of the President in Washington, they believe Farley and his lieutenants are trying to meat-axe their party organizations at home. r' ae Wisconsin. Minnesota
 Wisconsin and Minnesota are two cases in point. Tn both states the liberals have independent par- ties-in Wisconsin the Progres. sives, in Minnesota the Farmer Laborites-and in both states the independents control the incurn- bent governments. And in both, the Democrats have placed guber- natorial tickets fin the field.
 In Wisconsin Che Democratic candidate is Arthur Lueck, . conservative lawyer. In Mlnne- sOta the Democrats nominated Fred F. Curtis, . state legisls- tOr.i
 These Democratic asplrsnts have no chance to win iSl either state. But the liberals fear that i'm g three. e.c0rnered fight the Democrats will draw enough votes away to let the Repub- licans slip in.
 The left-wingers charge that the local Democrats are receiving aid and comfort from the National Committee. They recall that in 1884 Emil Hurja, Farley's lieu- tenant, stunped Minnesota for the Democratic ticket against Gov. ernor Olson and his Farmer. Laborites. r .,
 Now, in exchange for their sup- port, the liberals demand that Farley and Hurja be called off and required to tend to their own knitting. Otherwise, they warn ominously, the President will re- ceive no help from them in cotn- batting the third party machina- tons of Father Coughlin, Dr. Townsend and the share-the- Wealthers.

He has been hanging around the Executive OfflceS for Q week trying to get the SEC called of. 4
