Maine’s Democatic Convention
Backs Roosevelt; Farley Second
Bangor. Me.--The Maine#Dem-
ocratic state convention late yes
terday elected 20 delegates with
one-half vote each who will vote
in a solid bloc for a third term
for President Roosevelt at the
Democratic national convention.
Should Mr. Roosevelt decline
the nomination, the entire slate
will give their 10 votes to Post
master General James A. Farley.
Instructions to support the Pres
ident for a third term with Far
ley as an alternative camee in the
form of a resolution which re
ceived unanimous approval of the
convention.
1’he move was unexpected and
unprecedented since the conven
tion was to have named only four
delegates-at-large and six district
delegates—a total of 10 from
the state with one vote each.
However, the number of dele
gates was doubled w'hen the con
vention unanimously approved a
resolution offered by National
Committeeman P. Harold Dubord
soon after the committee to select
delegates met in executive ses
sion.
Dubord explained in his resolu
tion that the increase was neces*-
sary since so many were anxious
to attend the national conven
tion. His resolution suggested the
naming of eight delegates-at-
large and four delegates from
each of the three districts.
The outcome was hailed glee
fully by a third-term bloc. They
had claimed an initial victory
when the convention opened to
day because 90 state delegates' al
ready had supported a motion to
instruct the national delegation
to favor the President.
Maine was the second of the
.six New England states to give
unqualified approval of a third
term. New Hampshire, the na
tion's first state to hold a presi
dential primary, two w'eeks ago,
pledged their delegates to Mr.
Ro(tsevelt with Farley as second
choice.
I’arley was believed to have
rec'ived the strong support from
Maine Democrats because of the
keynote speech he made at the
convention shortly before dele
gates were elected. He had fore
cast a nation-wide victory for the
Democratic party in November.

worry about the Republicans.
'Phey were always active and
working in the interest of their
party.
Several rnember.s of th«* state
hoard of election.S' were then in
troduced—Walter Woodson, Sr.,
of Rowan: Mr. Prince, of Hender
sonville, and Mr. Hall, of Char
lotte.
Mr. Mitchell then introduced
W. A. Lucas, of Wilson, chainnaii
of the state election board. A can
vas of the 22 counties in the
roup showed that Iredell, Ashe,
Watauga, Wilkes. Alexander. Ca
tawba. Lincoln. Gaston. Mecklen
burg. Yadkin. Stokes, Korsyili,
Davidson, Rowan. Cabarrus, Da
vie and Union, were represented.
Mr. Lucas said that he was no
reformer or crusader, but that
the group meeting was being held
for the purpose of having a
round-table discussion on the
changes of the election laws. He
discu.sscd the new marker law,
relisting of voters, and how ab^
sentee ballots may be obtained in
the general election. No absentee
voting is allowed for any office
in the primary.
Questioned in regard to large
precincts like Wilkesboro No. 1.
and North Wilkesiboro, (there be
ing around 2600 voters in the lat
ter), Mr. Lucas said that be
thought it ridiculous to try to
carry on an election in any pre
cinct where there were as many
as 2600 voters. He stated that his
hoard, with one dissenting vote,
recommended to the legislature
that every precinct where they
were more than 500 voters be
divided, but that the legislature
took no action and left this mat-
etr entirely in the handsi of the
county board of elections.
Those attending the group
elections meeting from this coun
ty were Floyd C. Forester, mem
ber of the state executive com
mittee: J. R. Rousseau, chairman
jf the county Deraocraitlc execu
tive com-mIUee; E. P. Inscore,
