What Kind of 'Walk' Did AI Mem? Is It q Real Hike or
 Is 1t Only 'Constitutional?'
By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, Tfsc associated Press, Washington


 A common four-letter noun, as in the picturesque vocabulary of Alfred E. Smith, is causing Demo- cratic crossword puzzle experts more trouble than any other million words in the dictionary.
 So flexible is the language of politics that there are a dozen guesses what Smith really meant when he told the Liberty Leaguers he expected to take a walk" if the Democratic National Conven- ton endorsed the record Of the Roosevelt Administration!
 Where is the walk to take place, how long will it last, in what direc- tion will it lead, and where will it end?
 Did he mean it in the physical sense, and does he plan to attend the convention, oppose such an en- dorsement, and then walk out to the dramatic accompaniment of cheers and jeers when he loses the fight?
 Will he walk up the gangplank of an outgoing steamer, and while away the campaign in silence and sightseeing? If he remains on Am erican soil, will his footsteps lead him only around his familiar haunts in New York State, or along the trail of national political spell binding?
 Will he walk into the Republican Party, for the time being. or will he walk at the head of an inde- pendent party?
 Or, finally, will he merely walk around the block, as he did after the Roosevelt nomination in 1882, and be back in his accustomed place before election day?
