NWANIANS HEAR
DELEGATE REPORT
Toms Describes Minneapo-
lis Auditorium And Its
Benefits To City

K;wanians who heard e. Reid
Toms report on the international
convention from which he had re
Gently returned were particularly
interested at their meeting yester-
day in his description of the great
convention hall In Minneapolis and
the fact that despite the $4,000. 900
required to build it, it is fully self
liquidating.
This auditorium seats $4,000 per-
sons has a hundred additional
rooms for committee meetings, and
a dining room in which 5000 may
be served simultaneously. The city
administration which sponsored the
project, he learned, was almost u
cut of town by the opposition, but
today Minneapolis is deeply grateful
for the foresight and persistence
which brought the undertaking to
completion.
Toms told of the fine programs
and exceptional entertainment fea-
lures arranged for the delegates and
gave high praise to the promoters
who spared neither expense or ef'
fort to make the convention a sue
cess.
He emphasized the fact the south
won high honors in the international
organization by electing the presi-
dent, Mark A. Smith of Thomaston,
Ca: a national trustee, Ralph a
ker Of North Carolina, and naming
the next convention city, Atlanta.
A brief report Of the joint meet
ing between farmers and civic club
committees showed that bylaws and
other steps for permanent organl-
cation are nov under way.

the end of any minority representa-
ton in governmental boards and
commissions. 1t means that when
defeated at the polls the minority's
rights are destroyed for they have no
further redress in the courts as they
used to have. To deprive 1900, 900
persons of any voice in the operation
of their Government is to introduce
an element of tyranny which Con-
gress itself has never allowed in its
own halls. Yet independent commits
sions and boards hitherto responsible
to Congress where minority and ma
jority viewpoints are permitted are
hereafter to be tools of the Chief
Executive and his cabinet officers.
If Congress once realizes what is
happening, it will not be so ready to
delegate broad powers of law-making
to bureaucrats who are not elected
by the people. These commissions
heretofore have been responsive to
congressional criticism. but hereafter
they will be cut loose altogether from
any responsibility to the legislative
body and will be part of system of
one-man government, to which
Americans are presumably opposed.

Nazis Trapped.
The allies who have had an eY.

Despite denials from Berlin, 1t is
certain the allies have occupied

trapped because they have no means

presidential campaigns he has twice

This was necessarily so. For Mr.
Farley could not we'll declare him
self against denomination OF

not believe any President should
serve more than two termS-When
Mr.. Roosevelt has never said he
would run. A member of the Presi-

Democratic National Committee
Mr.. Farley's position has been all
the more trying.
When the President allowed to
60 for two weeks published reports
that Mr.. Farley was unavailable
for the presidential nomination on
account of his religious beliefs. the
feeling on the part Of Mr.. Farley S
friends-and probably on the part
of Mr.. Farley himself-reached the
red-hot stage. When the President
did say the reports were made out
Of whole cloth and contained nc
truth, the resentment did not en-
tirely subside. Mr.. Farley a day
or so after the Presidents denial
Of the reports made his statement
he intended to be a candidate
without reservations" in Massa-
chusetts where his name has been
entered in the presidential primary
although the Democratic State
chairman has announced that OF

Roosevelt first"
Not Openly Denounced.
Mr.. Farley's statement, interpret
ed as defiance of the third-term
boomers and the so-called inner
circle of the New Deal, has been
met with no open denunciation or
the part of administration leaders
whatever they may have said in
private. Indeed, the New Dealers
have since that time been particu.
lar to say nice things about Jim.

The Political Mill
Reelection as New York Choirmon May Inspire
Farley to Become Vocal on Third Term

Chicago, a prime booster for 4 Roose-
welt third term. and his co-boss.
Patrick Nash, national committee
man, may dominate the party Or
ganization in Illinois, but there are
other States where the word Of Mr..
Farley will 60 far.
Mr.. Farley is In Washington today
for the opening Of the baseball sea-
son. Certainly the President may
wish to hear the details Of the meet
ing Of the Democratic State Com
mittee. The committee adopted reso-
lutions praising the President, Gov.
Lehman and Mr.. Farley, Jumping
them all together. II the President
is not himself candidate, how many
of the New York delegates to the
national convention may be expected
to support Farley-and how many
could the President influence to sup
port the candidate of his choice?
The New York delegation might we'll
be split under those conditions.
Already the delegates from Puerto
Rico to the Democratic National
Convention have been pledged to Mr..
Farley. In Massachusetts, on April
80 the delegates to the national con-
vention will be elected-and it is
expected that the Farley slate will
go through. While the statement has
been made that the Massachusetts
delegates will be pro- Roosevelt, there
ig gti1l - kA1iAxyn Iaf
Mr.. Farley will have a good deal to
say about how they vote when the
balloting begins, particularly If the
President is not himself a candidate.
Announcement that First Assistant
Postmaster General William w.
Howes is to resign to &C back actively
into politics and to head an "unin-
structed" delegation to the national
convention, was construed as favor
able to Mr.. Farley. Mr.. Howes is a
member Of the Democratic National
Committee and friend of Mr.. Far
ley Of long standing.
Open Fight Would Imperil Party.
An open row between the New
Dealers and Mr.. Farley would bring
about an awkward situation. Pre-
sumably every effort will be made to
avoid a fight, which might be ex-
tremely bitter and certainly would
hurt the chances Of the party in the
national election. In some quarters
1t has been predicted that Mr.. Farley
would become more vocal on the
third term question after he had
been reelected chairman of the New
York State Democratic Committee.
II that be true, he may speak out
any time.
Pennsylvania's primaries fall on
April %. The Republicans are with
out major contests. Jay Cooke ap-
pears to be the selection for the
senatorial nomination. On the
Democratic side, however, Senator
Guffey is battling against Walter
Jones, oil operator. Mr.. Jones has
the support of those members of the
party organization who are bitterly
opposed to the denomination of Mr..
Guffey. Two or three months ago 1t
looked dark for the denomination Of
the Senator who split the party wide
open in 1888, supporting the c. I. o.
candidate for the gubernatorial
nomination against that of the party
organization. Appeals by the Presi-

dent and National Chairman Farley
to Democratic leaders in the State to
prevent an open fight in the State
committee meeting were effective.
There remains, however, much bitter
feeling which may crop out at the
polls. Certainly Mr.. Guffey looks to
be in far stronger position than he
did, and many observers are pre-
dieting his denomination.
Guffey has been an ardent Roose-
welt supporter and was one Of the
first to hop aboard the third term

Meanwhile. application of coun-

even proposed that Danish goods be
