 Behind those figures Is q story Of disputes which toretells trouble for the New Deal-Democratic c0al- ition. The strain Of conflicting in- terests was evidenced in bitter lan- gLage and boos in the convention yesterday.
 The story goes back to four gears ago tD the same stadium when Mr Roosevelt compelled the reluctant 1890 national convention to accept Wallace as its vice presidential n0En- inee.

David Lawrence of Pennsylvania. and others.
 This year the big organization leaders baked. Mr. Roosevelt failed tbis time to insist on Wallace. HG said he would vote for him if he were a delegate. But he also advised National Committee Chairman Rob. ert F. Hannegan that he g0ulc welcome either Truman or Doug. las on the ticket. explaining that he thought either would add strength,
