The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-08-16

Behind the rumor was the fact that Annenberg once equipped a baseball team connected with a Catholic school in which Car- dinal Mundelein is interested.
 The Cardinal heard this rumor, and when he was in Washington to call on President Roosevelt a short time ago, he dropped a quiet remark which indicated ex- actly where he stood.
 After lunching at the White House, Mundelein visited with Att torney General Frank Murphy at the office of a mutual friend. Among others things, Murphy, re- marked to him:
 T want to tell Your Eminence what . fine boy we have in Bill Campbell and what great job he is doing in the Annen- berg case. We are certainly lucky to have him with us."
 Murphy was referring to Wil- liam J. Campbell, the young U. s. attorney in Chicago who later indicted Annenberg, and who is . protege of Mundelein,s. The Car- dinal said nothing about Camp bell; instead he asked: "May make Q comment regarding that case?"
 Certainly replied the at- t0rney general.
 "I want to tell you that any move that you make to clean up the city of Chicago and make 1t 8 better place to live in is one of the finest things you can do, and will always have my blessing and support" YOUNG DEMOCRATS
 COMPROMISE
 That Pittsburgh resolution of the Young Democrats, skipping party senators and congressman for voting against Roosevelt meas ures, was a lot tougher in it's original form than as 1t finally emerged from the resolutions com- mittee.
 This committee, chairmaned by Harry Bingham, liberal young Louisville publisher. was over whelmingly New Deal. But among the 31 members was a bloc of six Garner conservatives. consisting of Prince Daniel, head of the Texas Young Democrats and leader of the dissenters; Howard Lee of Arkansas: Walter Domach of wisconsin; Harold Garity of New York; N. Haywood Clarkson, Jr., of South Carolina; and Cor don Gray of North Carolina.
 Although heavily outnum- bered, the Garnerites put up determined scrap against some of the strongly -Adminis- tratiOn resolutions. All protested devotion to the President, but they didn't want the convention to put 1t in writing. They par- ticularIy objected to one state- ment deploring that 8 few Dem Ocratic Congressmen had found affinity with reactionary Repub- Iicans to be tempting.
 The committee voted to report the resolution with the protested language, whereupon Daniel threatened to take the issue to the convention floor. Eugene Casey, Maryland farmer and canny author of the resolution, met this challenge with coun- ter-maneuver. He offered to de- lete the statement if the Garner ties would join in unanimous re- port on all the resolutions.
 They agreed. The New Deal CTS dropped the few disputed words and got both the resolu-
 tions and the harmony they wanted.
 NOTE-Joe Brady. Alabama delegate, at the first meeting of the committee objected to mem tioning Roosevelt by name in the resolutions. but when jumped b Casey backed down and at the final meeting voted with the New Dealers.
 MERRY-GO-ROUND
 A stenographer at the Young Democrats convention, typing the resolutions that were adopted, wrote "expiring" instead of ''in- spring leadership of President Roosevelt. and "the privileged youth of the slums" instead of "the under-privileged youth" Next to being elected President, Jack Gamers most cherished am-
