Fight on Roosevelt
Al Convention Futile,
|0yerton, Wheeler Say
by the Associated Press.


Some Democrats who have been
active in party councils In the past
will absent themselves from this
years national convention because
they believe President Roosevelt will
be nominated on the first ballot and
concede that opposition is futile.
They have feeling, in fact, that
opposition to any move to renomi-
nate Mr.. Roosevelt may be consider
ably less than it was in 1910.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, OF
Montana, who Is opposed to a fourth
term as strongly as he was against
a third, said yesterday he had no
intention of seeking place as a
convention delegate. In 1910 Sem
ator Wheeler led a successful fight
within the Platform Committee for
peace" plank that some adminis-
tratton leaders believed was not in
line with the Presidents views. The
Montanan took no active part in the
subsequent campaign.
so far as am concerned" Sem
ator Wheeler told a reporter, II
don't intend to go as a delegate to
the Chicago convention. I feel that
there are a lot Of Democrats in
Montana who are anxious to 60, and
I prefer to step aside in their favor.
1T looks now as If the President
will be candidate and If he is, he
will be renominated."
Similarly, Senator Overton, Demo-
crat. Of Louisiana, who has been
critical Of administration policies in
recent months, said he does not
plan to attend the convention.
apparently" he said, President
Roosevelt will be the nominee with
out serious opposition"
Some of the party's fourth-term
opponents, however, have made it
clear that they will be on hand
when the convention meets and do
what they can to force the selection
of another candidate.
Among those may be James A.
Farley, former national chairman
and now New York State chairman,
who told friends on a recent visit
here. I'll be there and you'll hear

in and even wear to work-are pic

The department, in its monthly

for instance, the insistence on top
quality.
"All in all" it concluded, "it be-

GRAFTON Of states capable of express
ing its will to peace and as means
OF preventing one-man action in
Moscow from endangering the peace
of the whole world, the formation
of the 16 republics can well repre-
sent a forward step in the progress
being made toward an effective
international organization for the
postwar world.

votes at a peace table" or in a
new League Of Nations, and that
some such system prevailed in the
League Of Nations of 1920, is not
borne out by the facts. The six
British commonwealths did have
individual representation in the
assembly Of the League of Nations,
which really had no power except
that of general debate on world
issues, and voted only on the admis-
sion of members, but in the all-im-
portant council-which had the real
power under the League of Nations
the British Empire had only one
vote.
Presumably the same method
would be followed now, and while
the Union of Soviet Republics might
we'll have 16 votes in the assembly,
it would have only one vote in the
council or governing body.
The decision to split up the vast
Russian areas and encourage the
growth of local autonomy is an eX-
cellent one. It carries with it, how
ever, more risks for the future of
dictatorship internally in Russia
than it does as an instrument of
external policy.
In the case of the British COM
monwealthS, there is not as much
agreement on foreign policy as has
been imagined. Australia and New
Zealand have been rather vocal in
expressing their viewpoints, and,
while conforming in a crisis to en-
pire foreign policy as whole, they
nevertheless have been and are
sometimes at variance with London
The same may be said of South
Africa and Of Canada.
Russia has different interests in
the Siberian zones than in Europe
The building up of system of de-
fense in the Siberian part of the
world has as much justification as
the determination already made by
Australia and New Zealand to build
up their own defenses in the Pacific
If the world is confronted with a
Russia consisting of 16 growing
units, each with a desire for self
expression, there is less danger to
the peace Of the world than If one
man in Moscow alone told the con-
stituent states what they must do.
If it turns out that the 16 units
are dominated by a one-man gov
ernment, the world in time will
recognize that as a backward step.
But so far as the present action
constituting a danger to the British
or American interests in the post
war world, the chances are remote,
for the truth is the 16 republics
would for a long while be far from
the stage OF development in self
government that the British Com
monwealths have reached. 1t is un-
likely the Russian states would at
any early date be capable of man
aging a foreign policy or setting up
their own respective military es-
tablishments.
The idea must not be looked on
IN the meantime as some sinister
maneuver to acquire greater politi-
cal control in the world. The notion
about Is votes at the peace table
need produce no more important
straw men than the six votes for
Britain" which in the 1919 debate
was one of those far-fetched distor-
tions repeatedly refuted by refer
ence to the provisions Of the COW
enant Of the League as to the
powers Of the assembly and the
council. Many of the anti-leaguers
nevertheless used the argument
then to foment anti-British senti-
ment, just as, no doubt, it will be
used this time to crystalize anti
Soviet sentiment in America.
