PHILADELPHIA, June 27.-Although
the manages of this convention are
not so sure as to just whether it went
over or not, it has served to show
that all business men are not against
the New Deal. The writer today ran
into a most vociferous business man
advocate of regimentation and social
security and the other things which
business men generally have been op-
posing.
Now, nobody frightens me when
they talk about a dictatorship" he
said. Il like it, whatever you want
to call it"
The conservation was most en-
lightening-how machinery has dis
placed the laboring man and how it
is necessary to have planned econ
omy on account of this. This mans
complaint was how labor saving de-
vices have displaced the business man.
1t turned out that it was not a labor
saving device that really displaced
his business, but what probably would
be called woman's fancy or maybe
her emancipation.
You can talk about rugged indi-
viduaisn until you are blue in the
face" the business man said. But

net post and confine his activities to
his Craftsmanship Of the Democratic
National Committee and New York
State Democratic Committee appeared
today to be definitely discounted when
it became known that he has accepted
three speaking engagements before
postal organizations in the late Sum-
mer and early Fall.
The first talk will be before the Ma
tional Rural Letter Carriers, who hold
their annual conventionin Indianapolis,
starting August 1S; the schedule next
takes him TO Cleveland, where the
National Association Of Postmasters
goes into session September Is, and
finally, to st. Paul, for the National
League Of District Postmasters meet
ing october 81.
Farley agreed TO make these talks
before going to the Philadelphia con-
vention, and associates do not believe
he would have undertaken them had
he intended stepping out of the Post
Once Department, inaSmuch as they
are to deal with service matters.
Some friends here think it possible
that during the campaign, Farley
might drop active participation in de-
partmental affairs. leaving admins
tration in the hands Of w. w. Howes,
first assistant, who would become act
ing Postmaster General. Howes served
in this capacity for six weeks when

But the ovation brought no imme-

before the marching delegates had
taken their seats.
His speech did not mention AL Smith,
whom the Governor had criticized
earlier in the week for inviting repudi-
alton of President Roosevelt.

PHILADELPHIA, June 27.-A thun-

bert H. Lehman today the question OF
whether he would run again next Fall
and help President Roosevelt carry
New York.
AS if set of by a spring, hundreds
Of its own. It would hesitate to
identify itself with the detection Of
former Gov Smith and the Northern
conservatives. A Southern detection
would not in most cases want to vote
the Republican ticket. For the new
development in the Democratic party
which repels Southerners is the same
thing that has long been associated
with the Republican party and has
been the reason the South could not
vote Republican.
A Southern detection, If there is
one, should logically take the form
Of third party calling itself some
thing like Constitutional Demo-
cratic" Whether such a development
is to come is not yet apparent. But
all consideration of a Southern de-
fection may be omitted, as merely
a logical possibility.
The detection of the right wing
symbolized by Smith, former Senator
Reed, Douglas, Breckenridge and
others-is a settled fact. The detection
on the left wing under Lemke and
Father Coughlin is q settled fact.
The two defections leave Mr.. Roose-
welt with only his center.
1t is a formidable center, for it
includes the largest number Of Office
holders either party has ever had.
1t includes many, especially women
and young folks, who are still under
the spell of Mr.. Roosevelt's personality
and voice. 1t includes those who are
still allured by humanitarian phrases
such as the more abundant life" !"
and do not see economic reality. It
includes the beneficiaries of billions
and billions of relief money Though
not all these will vote for Mr.. RooSe-
velt
Mr.. Roosevelt's center, remaining to
him, includes those and more. But
the practically complete departure of
his right and left wings makes the
coming election not merely doubtful
one, but one hard for Mr.. Roosevelt
to win.
