litically significant speaking engage
ment to his schedule when he accepted
an invitation to speak at rural cleo
trification project at GAINESVILLE, Ga,
on August H.
The invitation was submitted by a
delegation visiting the White House
this morning, including among its
members Lawrence Camp, Federal at
torney for Georgia and primary oppo-
nent of Senator George 1t has been
expected that administration backing
would be accorded Mr.. Camp in pref
erence to the conservative Senator
George
Earlier on August II the President
will receive an honorary degree at the
University of Georgia in nearby Ath-
ems
On the springboard of his own
declaration of his right to speak as
party chiefJain in matters pertain
ing to the party. Mr. Roosevelt is
expected to accord outright support
10 New Deal senatorial candidates in
at least three other States listed in his
itinerary--Kentucky, Oklahoma and
California. 1t is considered more than
coincidence, furthermore, that he
will cross several other States where
critical situations pertain with regard
to party selections. not only for the
Senate and House, but also for gover-
norships.
Some political observers, in fact,
are comparing the coming trip in
significance with that of Woodrow
Wilson almost 20 years ago on be-
half OF the League of Nations.
OF considerable interest in relation
to the Roosevelt expedition is the
more recent disclosure that Demo-
cratic Chairman James A. Farley
also will be on speechmaking trim
which will carry him across the coun-
try to the Northwest and finally on
to Alaska
Although the chairman's attitude
toward the much-discussed "purging''
OF anti-New Dealers from the party
ranks has indicated he preferred to
save his ammunition to fight Repub-
licans in November, it has been re-
ported authoritatively that Mr.. Far
ley would lend quiet support to efforts
to help the liberal candidates in
several States. The chairman backed
away from any such compromising
action yesterday, however, by dis
claiming any choice in the contest be-
tween Representative Howard w
Smith and William E. Dodd. jr., in
Virginia.
One of Mr.. Roosevelt's most sig
niflcant appearances is that slated
late tomorrow when he visits Coving-
ton. KY, to speak for Majority Leader
Barkley, now engaged in a bitter pri-
mary fight with Gov. A. B. Chandler
This speech will be delivered at the
Latonia race track, on the outskirts OF
Covington, just across the river from
Cincinanti. Those who will be in the
Presidents party are looking forward
with interest to the effect of Gov
Chambers being aboard the Presi-
dents train from the time it reaches
the Kentucky border, and being in
the presidential party when he makes
his speech appealing to the voters OF
that State to send Senator Barkley
back to the Senate
The Presidents next major speech
will be at Oklahoma City, where he
will deliver an address urging re-elec-
ton Of Senator Thomas, who also is
having primary trouble.

H. A. Morgan and Lilienthal Also
Decline to Discuss Step.


b. the Associated Press.
The Justice Department withheld
comment today on DR.. Arthur E.
Morgan's suit challenging the right of
President Roosevelt to remove him
from the Craftsmanship of T. v. A.
1t was a foregone conclusion how
ever. that the Government would con-
test the suit
Before the President removed Dr.
Morgan he asked the Justice Depart
ment whether this was within his
power.
Robert H. Jackson. now Solicitor
General, but then Acting Attorney
General, advised There would appear
to be no question that the power of
removal is in fact vested in the Presi-
dent"
Harcourt A. Morgan and David
Lilienthal, T. V. A. directors named
defendants in the suit, also declined
to discuss DR.. Morgans step.
In the opinion he gave the Presi-
dent, Mr.. Jackson had cited a Su-
preme Court decision holding Presi-
dent could remove a postmaster, al
though the statute provided that the
postmaster should hold Office four
years and should be removable by the
President only with the consent of
the Senate.
Mr.. Jackson asserted this decision
had not been upset by the Supreme
Courts ruling during the present ad-
ministration that the President could
not remove a Federal Trade commits
sioner. In the latter case, he said, the
commissions quasi-judicial powers
were an important factor.
Mr.. jackson also referred to the
charges made against DR.. Morgan by
his fellow T. v. A. directors and OBJ
served:
II think may state It is an un-
assailable proposition that if any of
these charges is established, the power
of removal ought to exist. Further
more, the Tennessee Valley Authority,
being an executive agency, performing
executive functions, and therefore in
the executive branch of the Govern
ment, the power of removal ought to
be in the President"
President Roosevelt, in reporting to
Congress that he had removed DR..
Morgan, said he acted under his con-
stitutional obligation to see that the
laws are faithfully executed.

Renewed Assurances Seen.
Informed persons indicated that Sir
Robert also had brought renewed as
surances from Gen. Franco that no
foreign power would control Spain
after the civil war is ended.
These informants said. however. that
this time the British government was
not so sure that the insurgent chief
tain would be able to fulfill his pledge
to keep Spain free.
The pledge has been given repeated
ly IN the past, but British fears on
that score were one reason for the
urgency of London's efforts to get
foreign volunteers, including German
and Italian technical advisers" to the
insurgent regime, withdrawn from
Spain.
