Slil|iniiii: Raleigh, April 16.?The meeting of the Republican State Convention Wed nesday and the A1 Smith rally on -Thttradar evening furnished the big" headliners for the Capital City dur ing the week and set the political pot' close to the boiling point. The North Ctrollna Republicans made their plans i Tor the fall campaign and the Smith' adherents perfected an organization with which they hooa to capture the Democratic State Convention for their candidate on June 14th. Taking the center of the State at ileven o'clock Wednesday morning the! State Republican organization flrst' listened to a rousin? speech by Con gressman Theodore E. Burton and then got down to the business of adopt lug a platform, naming a State ticket and four delegates at large to repre sent North Carolina at the National Republican Convention soon to We held at Kansas City. The platform ealte for a uniform ballot law "which will grant to every qualified voter the right te vote as he pleases and have that vote counted;" for the enactment of "unirorm tax laws which will pot de stroy our industrial or agricultural life;" "proper safe guards and lim itations for bond Issues;" drastic "re. duction in the number of State office holders;" strict "enforcement of pro hibition laws,' dnd declares lor a State.wtde uniform tax in every coun ty for the support of the public schools supplemented by such a State equalizing fund as will give each county the Constitutional length of school term, at the same time main taining a tax rate and school facilities that will be equal and uniform through out the entireJState^ The following State ticket was nam ed to oppose the Democratic nominees without a dissenting voice; Governor. Herbert F. Seawell. of Moore County; Lieutenant-Governor, W. H. Fisher, of Sampson; Attorney General, J. R. McRary. _ .Davidson. State -Auditor,! John W. Yaeger, of Catawba; State! Treasurer, John H.

Iflj a going concern, it the-' assempPng of~more titan 3,000 people ay*the City Auditorium here on Thursday evening to hear George Gordon Battle, prominent New York aiydVney and native North Carolinian, pay trloute to the character and abil ity of the Governor of his adopted state, may be considered significant. Cdll for the meeting had been widelv heralded over the State and brought to Raleigh leading Democratic sup porters of the New York Governor from practically every section. Mr. Battle was introduced by Congress man John H. Kerr of the second dis. trict, the lone congressman from the State to declare for the nomination of Governor Smith in answering the iLquiry of Col. Santford Martin, ot Winston-Salem, who recently put the question of Smith or anti-Smith to a list of forty Democratic officials and prominent leaders In the party. The Congressman declared In his intro duction of Mr. Battle that Governor Smith Is Democracy's best bet for this year and the only Democrat who has a chance to win the presidency ^m the Republican nominee of the Kansas City Convention. Mr. Kerr ridiculed the idea of North Carolina falling into the Republican column in the event of the nomination of Governor Smith, regardless of his church alignment and the reputation for wetness attri buted to him. Mr. Battle began his address by pay. irg high tribute to North Carolina, his native State, and then proceeded to his subject "The life and character of Governor Alfred E. Smith," whom he declared has never hesitated to express his views on any public ques tion because they might injure him in a political way. He traced in a lcng tedjous way the public career of Governor Smith from the day he entered the New York State Assem bly on down to the day Mr. Smith and his partv boarded a special train in Albany for the Biltmore Country Club, Ashevllle, N. C., for a brief va cation. The Governor has served his State in that capacity four terms, said Mr. Battle, and can continue to do so as long as he wishes, declaring that his experience and demonstrated ca pacity ample, in every way, to justi fy his promotion to the Presidency. Admitting'the alignment of Governor Smith with the Roman Catholic church, Mr. Battle assured his audi, ence that this would in no way in terfere with the duties expected of the President of the United States; that in the Governor's Executive Coun cil of sixteen at Albany, Mr. Smith had appointed thirteen Protestants, two Catholics and one Jew. showing that he clearly stands for the separa tion of church and state. The speak er also promised strict enforcement of -the Eighteenth Amendment and Volstead Act.

How the 9iate oT Connecticut happened to ac quire these ancjent securities Is not clear and the/Governor decided to go up and learn more about it. Ap plication to start the suit was made Wednesday last by Frederick Coudert and Howard Kingsbury, attorneys, In thf/Supreme Court of the Vnited States and "the outcome is1 awaited with keen interest here.
