 Caused By Roosevelt

 Washington, July 11-(UP)-Evi- dence of President Roosevelts cam- rtlign year displeasure with promi- rent Democrats who have baked at New Deal policies is spreading today far beyond the areas through which the presidential special is rolling to- ward the west coast. A federal ju- dietary appointment just made, al- ready has aroused Sen. Carter Glass, p,, Va, to sharp protest that 1t was Intentionally offensive" Both Glass and Harry F. Byrd, junior senator from Virginia, are expected to op- pose confirmation of Floyd B. Rob- orts to the federal bench. Roberts, nominated by the president, was proposed by Rep. John w. Flanna- gan, Jr., D., Va, who is a staunch administration supporter.
 Formidable Combine
 Glass and Byrd may prove to be a formidable combination. If their Seeling of deliberate offense is ,hared by other senators now being bruised by MT. Roosevelts campaign year maneuvers, the anti-New Deal bloc in the senate is likely to be stronger and even more numerous next year than previously-provided, of course, that anti-NeW Dealers now up for renomination and elec- ton survive the obstacles before them. Sen. Pat McCarran, D., Nev., who opposed the judiciary reorgan- ization bill, has just had some bad news. One of his political ener1ies was appointed U. s. attorney n Nevada and his recommendations were ignored when the president named members of the new civil aerona itics authority. McCarran sponsored the civil aeronautics bill.
 Sen. Tydings Opposed
 Sen. Willard E. Tydings, D., Md, stands near the top of the New Deal Purge list. There are reports from Maryland that some republicans are giving a hand and money to his re- nomination campaign. Equally per- suasive are indications that the New Deal is backing the candidacy of Rep. David J. Lewis, D., Md, to succeed Tydings. Lewis is 100 per cent New Dealer. Following the res ignation of Henry w. Webb, Mary land director of the Federal Housing administration, Tydings is complain ing of a political plot to supplant Webb with temporary director who, in turn, would retire after the election in behalf of a supporter of Lewis.
 Significant Speech
 Some political significance was at- tached here to last weeks appear ance of Wm. E. Dodd, Jr., New Deal supporter, as a guest of Postmaster General James A. Farley when the latter spoke at Charlottesville, Va. Dodd was invited by Farley to ac- company him and sit on the plat form. Also present was Rep. How ard Smith, D., Va, who is opposed by Dodd for renomination. Smith was one of the Democratic members of the house rules committee who helped stymie MT. Roosevelts wage hour legisla ton through most of the last session of congress. MT. Roose- VelLS pdSSdBc Iihou5i ASACuSnJ was sufficient to demonstrate that there will be no quarter in the war he has proclaimed against Demo- crats who appear to be vulnerable. Some of his legislative opponents may escape direct opposition be- cause they are too firmly entrenched back home to be dislodged even by White House artillery. Such a one is Sen. Bennett c. Clark, D., Mo, who has bucked MT. Roosevelt on many pet issues.
 President Hits Hard
 But e president can hit hard when an unfriendly chin is within swinging distance. His unequivocal assertion in Kentucky that he pre- ferred to have Sen. Alben w. Bark ley remain in the senate rather than be supplanteG by Gov. A. B. tHap- py) Chandler was, in fact, a gentle tap compared with what followed. The president found occasion in Kentucky to pay tribute to Sen. M. M. Logan. D.. Ky, and that led di- rectly to publication of letter to Logan in which Mir. Roosevelt had written: ''The governor put you and Alben and me into most disagree able situation and wholly without any necessity therefor. want you to know that the governor came to me
