Associated Gas Trustees
To Confer With 5. &c, Head
BY the Associated Press,

Three recently appointed trustees
of the billion dollar Associated Gas
& Electric system probably will con-
fer today with Chairman Jerome N.
Frank of the Securities Commission
1t was learned this morning.
The trustees. chosen last week by
Federal Judge Vincent L. Leibell
of New York. are Dennis j. Driscoll,
Pennsylvania State Utilities Com
mission chairman, trustee for Asso-
ciated Gas & Electric Co., top unit
in the system, and Willard L. Thorp,
New York economist and special ad-
wiser to Secretary Hopkins, and
Walter H. Pollak, New York lawyer,
trustees for Associated Gas g. Elec-
trio Corp, next to the top unit.
The trustees conferred with Judge
Leibell Saturday. 1t was reported
that their visit to the S. E. c. would
be preliminary meeting in prep
aration for cooperation with the
commission in reorganization of the
huge system. The S. E. C. must ap-
prove many of the steps in revamp-
ing the system, which extends into

dent largely because he is, at heart,
fair and objective. He does not
profess technical or detailed
knowledge of complicated questions
of Government, but his instincts are
those of man who recognizes that
a majority must not ride rough shod
over minority in a democracy. Jim
Farley would be for the healing of
domestic friction, for adjustment of
differences, and hence for America S
progress.
Not His Religion.
1t probably is not Jim Farley's
religion which bars him today from
consideration by so many New
Dealers, but his forthrightness in
opposing the irresponsibility and
abuse of power they have manifested
in operating many Government
agencies. He has not hesitated to
say what he thought of those bu-
reaucrats who pretend to be fol-
lowers of Jefferson Democracy.
Jim Farley has done more for the
Democratic party than any man in
it today and he has a stronger fol-
lowing on Capitol Hill than anybody.

never would venture to send a per-

1llS Oil al Uy
Ernest Lindley, who is close to the
White House, in which the President
Is quoted as having said something
substantially to that effect.
Mr.. Lindley makes the fiat state
ment that the President does not in
tend to run for a third term and
gives detailed conversation between
the President and an unnamed
Democratic "stalwart" presumably a
Southern Senator.
For some time the National Capt.
tai has been awaiting word of this
kind, and were it not for the refer
ence to Jim Farley's candidacy, many
here would believe the article was
inspired from authoritative quarters,
especially since it was published on
the seventh anniversary of Mr.
Roosevelt's Inauguration.
The article first states that Mr..
Roosevelt believes Cordell Hull
should be nominated for the presi-
dency. 1t then mentions Attorney
General Jackson. Paul McNutt and
Senator Wheeler as possible vice
VI CS1OC1iJldl SdllS1udUCS. lllCll N1l
Lindley quotes the Presidents visitor
as saying: "You didn't mention Jim
Farley, Mr.. President, what about
him for Vice President with Cordell
Hull?"
Religious Issue.
"You know how fond I am of Jim
Farley the President is reported to
have replied. Hes a wonderful
fellow. He done great job for the
Democratic party. I don't know of
any one more deserving of recogni-
tion by the party. And he's done
more for me politically than any
other living person, not even except
ing my wife. But-Ive been travel
ing about and talking to people
from all over this country for a good
many years now. You know what
lot of people down your way would
think and say if we nominated Jim
for Vice President. I know, too,
because I've lived among them.
They'd say we were using Cordell
Hull as stalking horse for the
Pope"
That's right. Mr.. President"
And lots of other people in other
parts of the country would say the
same thing. I'm afraid we'd stir up
a lot Of prejudice and emotions that
would confuse the whole picture We
might even end up with another AL
Smith debacle. Right?"
That's right, Mr. President"
Now If the foregoing-reported by
Mr.. Lindley to have been "in sub
stance" the conversation that the
Democratic "Stalwart" heard and is
said to have related to a friend of
Mr.. Lindley's-has been accurately
relayed, it means that religious pref
udice is still prime factor in
American politics sufficient to keep
a deserving Democrat from getting
high place in the party which he has
50 faithfully served.
Assumption Not Credited.
One refuses to credit this assump-
ton for it is believed by many polit-
ical observers here that religious
prejudice is much less factor today
than it was in 1928. There are more
reasons for believing that if the
President is vetoing Jim Farley for
the vice presidency, it is fundament-
ally because Mr.. Roosevelt has been
too much influenced by The brain
trust" and inner circle type of
adviser whose real objection, to Mr..
Farley is that he is not New Deal
Eealot.

were elected Vice President and fate

Nazi Consideration" Of U. s. A.
In broadcasting to the United
States the other night about the

any ship flying the British flag or
any neutral vessel bearing supplies
for Britain, Admiral Raeder said
Every consideration would be shown

is officially informed that to date one
species Of consideration the German
Navy has conspicuously failed to
display is an explanation of Admiral
Raeder's mysterious warning last fall
that the American liner Iroquois
would be sunk, presumably by the
allies, as she approached these

but the State Department never has
been informed just what impelled
