ROBINSON TO
DEFEND new
DEAL TONIGHT
Scheduled As Speaker As
Controversy Still Rages
Around Smith

WASHINGTON, Jan. %. (UP)
"A bitter New Deal. counter-at-
tack against Al Smiths Liberty
League speech yesterday opened
a week of significant political
developments that may have an
bearing upon the 1886
presidential race.
Rep. Clifton A. Woodrum, D.,
Va, carried the political dispute
to the house floor with scathing
denunciation of the 1928 Happy
Warrior" who predicted Saturday
night that Jeffersonian Demo-
Gratis would "walk out" on the
party if it indorsed the "socialis-
tic" New Deal policies.
Woodrum charged that Smith
"and the other little spoiled boys"
already had "taken a walk" in
effect by not supporting Roose-
yelt. He termed Smith "demo-
cracy's most famous walker-out-
er." And asserted those who
sponsored his attack on the New
Deal are interested in "the license
of pillage and control of the func-
tions of government.
Shouting to make himself heard
above booes from the Democratic
side, Rep. Hamilton Fish, R., n
Y. came to Smiths defense, de-
scribing him as IAN outstanding
American regardless of politics
and challenging Woodrum to meet
squarely the issues raised by the
former New York governor.
Democratic leaders showed no
signs of alarm at Smiths threat
of a bolt of conservative Demo

difficulties last night.
Rev. Gerald l.. K. Smith, on
whom the Georgia governor had
counted to lead a powerful Louis

Roosevelt fold and perhaps into
a pro-Talmadge bloc, last night
was rebuffed sharply by spokes-

Rev. Smith yesterday was re

by Richard W.. Leche, Louisiana
governor-designate, who IN a
sharp statement reminded that
Smith was not speaking for him
when he promised Talmadge he
would lead Georgia, louisiana
and three other state delegations
to the Macon convention.
"a thought l had made it clear
that no individual or group speaks
for me or my administration"
said Leche, who, on January Il,
won the Louisiana Democratic
