 The movement against Farley was led by the Democratic organization in Albany, N. F., controlled by the O'Connell brothers. John J. O'Co1- nell, Jr., chairman of the Albany Democratic Committee, proposed yesterday that Farley be busted and that Cullen succeed him. The O'Connells were not active in 1940 third term developments nor have they had any especially notable as- sociation with the Roosevelt admin istration.
 But the proposal to ouSt Farley was viewed here as @ movement to place the state organization in New York in control of persons friendly t ca fourth term nomination for MT. Roosevelt. Albany sources believed success or failure of the O'Connells' efforts would depend largely on the attitude taken by James O, Kelly, Brooklyn Democratic leader.
 Some observers believed that Q political purge directed against Far ley seriously would disrupt the Dem- ocratic organization in New York and jeopardize the party's chances to carry the state in the presidential election, especially If Governor Thomas E. Dewey were the Ropuh- lican nominee. others suggested that the White House would have to intervene forcefully and openly to obtain Farley's custer when tho State Committee meets next month.
