Third-Term Candidacy
OF Roosevelt Forecast

Venturing what he called long
distance prophecy. Frederic William
Vile, columnist and member Of the
editorial staff of The Star, told the
Civitan Club at its Tuesday lunch
con that victory for the Democrats
in 1910 being impossible without
New York State. they face the
necessity of renominating Franklin
D. Roosevelt as their only prospec-
tive sure-flre chance of keeping
Thomas E. Dewey from capturing
its Al electoral votes for the G. o.
P. Mr.. Vile said he believed this
argument would be urged upon the
President next year and that he
would succumb to it.
II still think F. D. r. is the all
around most popular figure in the
country today" the writer said. AT
least I cannot envisage Bennett
Clark, a Paul McNutt, a Harry
Hopkins, or even Jack Garner, q
Cordell Hull or Jim Farley meas
uring up to the President in Demo-
cratic vote-getting stature.

New Deal throne, but I believe the
President is pursuing foreign pol
icy conducive to peace in letting all
concerned know on which side
American moral sympathies and
material resources are likely to be
found If the relationships are fool
hardy enough to challenge the
democracies to a finish fight"

Court Upho|ds Hull
On Denial Of Visa

The Federal courts may not be
used to compel Secretary OF State
Hull to instruct American consular
officers to grant visas, when those
officials have declined to issue them,
Justice Jennings Bailey ruled in
District Court today in the case of
DR.. Karl Grunwald, q Vienna
physician.
DR.. .Grunwald unsuccessfully sought
to have the court compel the cabinet
omcer to issue him q transit
certificate, so that he might come
from Germany to the United States,
on his way to Cuba. The Cuban
government has granted the physi-
clan a. permit to 60 to that island.
but DR.. Grunwald found steamship
accommodations filled to the end
of the year and he said he feared
that the Nazis might send him to a
German concentration camp.
DR.. Grunwald applied for the
transit certificate at the office of
the American Consulate at Vienna,
but the officials abroad refused his
request.

Auditorium Site Called Decisive
Factor in Financial Success
Education Association Experts Soy
Location Near Hotels Essential

which have convention halls too far
removed from the hotel area. The
Dallas auditorium is only 2 miles
from the hotel area, with direct
street railway service, he said, but
even this distance has been found
too great, and Dallas is Stunned by
large conventions.
Convention delegates object to
paying daily taxicab fares, and the
average convention visitor, while he
may use street cars at home, has
an aversion to using street cars in
a city which he does not know,
which seriously interferes with q
convention held too far from the
hotel district. Mr.. Allan explained.
The average convention delegate
who does not go to the convention
city in his own car prefers to travel
between hotel and convention hall
on foot, he said.
AS an example, he cited the School
Administrators meeting In Cleve-
land last month. There, he and
Mr.. Shankland estimated, between
30 and 80 per cent Of the delegates
habitually went on foot, the taxicab
service being scarcely adequate to
handle even the remaining 10 per
cent. For this reason the conven-
ton added little to traffic conges-
ton in Cleveland, it was explained.
Cleveland was pointed to as "an
excellent example" Of the advantage
OF compact convention -hotel area.
Kansas City, st. Louis and San
Francisco also were cited as good
examples Of favorable location Of
convention haAs with reference to
hotel.
'The location of the auditorium
with reference to the hotels is a
primary consideration in determin-
ing our choice OF a CITY," the N. e.
A. heads explained. This would
hold just as true for Washington
as for any other city. The East
Capitol street location is too far
away from the hotel district in
Washington and would initiate
against the choice Of the National
Capital for conventions. For such
events as the presidential inaugural
however, the matter Of distance
would not be so serious an objection,
and there is no reason why the
East Capitol street site should not
serve we'll for such a purpose. The
armory type Of building would be
more suitable for such an event
as the inaugural than an audi
torium."
The N. E. A. now is faced with the
necessity of choosing between Phil
adelphia and Atlantic City for next
years convention, 1t was said. The
choice probably will fall on Atlantic
City, it was indicated, solely because
the auditorium there is closer to the
hotels than in the case of Phila-
delphia. This will be the fourth
visit of the convention to Atlantic
City for this reason.
Those who are responsible for
selecting an auditorium site should
give consideration to the conven-
ience Of convention visitors as well
as to local needs" 1t was pointed
out. "They should keep in mind
those things they would like to ind
when attending a convention In q
strange city. Not the least among
these is proximity Of the auditorium
to the hotels"

he said. This is an excellent plan.
in my opinion. While most students
of grade and high school age are not
ready to decide what particular type
of music they might wish to study,
certainly a general appreciation of
the musical classics will be a help
to them later on in life"
The students of music at the
university also will use the record
ings in their studies. Mr.. McLain
said he plans to purchase the COM
plete set of 10 symphonies and
symphonic compositions offered by
The Star to use in his courses in
music appreciation, history and
harmony.
Distribution Continues.
"These masterpieces will be an
excellent addition to the universi-
tvs collection of recordings" he
said.
