VOL. XVIII.—NO. 20 The Madison MissNWatkin? ENTERED AM SBCOND-CDASS MATTER AT ROSTOV i''ICE. MADISON, N. C. MADISON, N.C., May, 5, 1932 SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: ONE TEAR *1.50 SEX MONTHS 75 CENTS X Every Thursday Smith Apparently Hopes To Deadlock Convention Walter Brown, Washington correspondent, sent out the fol lowing interesting political news from that city Saturday : As a result of his gains in the East during the past week, Alfred E. Smith has unquestion ably made progress toward his most cherished ambition—that is to be “big boss” at the forth coming Democratic national con vention. There is a division of opin ion here as to just what kind of a political program Smith and his close personal friend, Chair man Raskob of the Democratic national committee, have in inina. First of all, of course, Smith desires the nomination for him self because he feels that 1932 is going to be a Democratic year and as the presidential nominee he would have a free ride into the White House, The former New York governor has not let: the country forget he received 15,000,000 votes in 1928, the largest vote ever received by a Democratic candidate. At ev ery opportunity he rushes into print with the assertion that he is the same A1 Smith he was when nominated in 1928. 'No one seems to know whether Smith really thinks he has a chance to be nominated. It now seems that Smith is going to the convention with around 200 votes. This is. not enough to block nomination, but with a few favorite son votes which are expected to be under control of the Raskob ma chinery will tie the convention into a knot as it was done by Smith at the 1924 Madison Square Garden convention. The 1928 Democratic nominee will in all probability base his appeal for the nomination on the grounds he received in 1928 more votes than any other pre vious Democratic nominee, that if he is denied a second try for the presidency it will be the first time the party has denied a second nomination to nominee who desired it, and that unless he is nominated there is a large personal following in the Unit ed States which will bolt the ticket. It is generally agreed here in Washington that the religious issue came into play in the Massachusetts primary and was more than any other one factor responsible for Smith’s crash ing defeat of Roosevelt in the Bay State. Those at the Capi tol who speak frankly on polit ical matters do not hesitate to state there is a danger of the Democratic party losing the Catholic vote unless Smith is nominated for a, candidate of his choice. While Smith may block Roose velt the New York governor likewise can do some blocking. He will go to the convention with majority of delegates, acj cording to present indications, and one may write it down in their little red book that Roose velt will not let his one-time friend but now a bitter rival re ceive the nomination. There may be a change of sentiment between now and convention time but the pres ent outlook is for a convention marked with bitter strife be tween the Smith-conservative wing of the prty and the Roose velt-liberal faction. What doubt remained in die minds of Democrats, if there was any at all, that Smith was referring to Roosevelt when he said he would take off his coat and vest and work to keep the convention in session all sum mer rather than see a demagog ue nominated has now been re moved. Smith, in commenting on the results in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania primaries, said: “It ought to put a chock un der the Roosevelt bandwagon and stop people from jumping on it on the theory there is no where else to go.” Unquestionably Raskob has convinced Smith that Roose velt is the wrong kind of a man to have in the WTiite House. Raskob was Republican before becoming chairman of the Dem ocratic national committee and he expresses the viewpoint of “big business.” It is believed in Washington that Raskob is directing Smith in his fight against the New York governor. Some of the Roosevelt senators are regretting Raskob has been allowed to remain in charge of the party machinery and Un less the writer misses his guess they will regret it more by the time the convention rolls around. Control of the party machin ery gives to the ‘“stop Roose velt”fofCes a distinct advantage and one which will have telling If Smith blocks Roosevelt and Roosevelt blocks Smith then the convention must find some can didate which will satisfy both sides. This will be no easy matter. Newton D. Baker is without a doubt dark horse [ number one in case of a dend locked convention. The first fight in the conven tion will come over the Selec tion, of permanent chairman. Jouett ShoUse, chairman of the Democratic executive commit tee, £ post created by Raskob especially l'or Sm stated for this post. Roosevelt. sup porters are considering’ very; carefully the . ads isahi I it v of giving a bitter foe suc-h a power at the convention. There is quite a hit of opposition to Shouse and it is possible the first test vote in the convention will conie on the vote for im - manent chairman. . . Seriah r Berkley, of Kentucky, will temporary, 'chairman and ke; noter. While ihe convention '■■■ i. in organ! ze d ; m d 1 e a d i 11 g De »>; » real ic orators dun-him e < he 1 lire of the Hoover {nlniinist/ra-s lion and 'predict; a hwec-piu!''

Prohibition is- one t question which is going to cause plenty of trouble in the-- committee , The .liberals and conservative will also scrap it, out over the plank stating.the party's p i t ion on economic issues. Regardless of the kind of platform adopted by t'hie. fcom-j mittce there wiU be a fight; to amend it in the convention. “Alfalfa Bill” will be there seeking to give the declaration a favor of Murrayksm. A1 Smith will be on the floor and he will raise plenty of trouble i; the platform is not so. wet, that liquor and beer ran be wrung; out of it. Following: the scrap on' the platform (lie big battle "over the nominee will take place. Foi months Shouse, and Ras kob have been trying to jockey! A! Smith into the position of he!ding a veto power over the convention. By gaining all of the convention wotes ah Massa-, ehusetts, half in Pennsylvania, all in Connecticut the 1928 lnini inee now has over a. nunci red votes in his own name, If you give to film the New '} oik vote, which lie is slated to receive. Smith lias at this time prac ti cally as many votes as Roose velt, Smith’s opposition to Roose velt has. put renewed life into the Roosevelt camp and is sol idifying his forces. Senator Cordell Hull and other R ; 11 velt leaders think this is. the ! best thing that could happen to their candidate.' They -ay Roosevelt will now begin to demonstrate his real strength and nothing will be able to stop him. All agreo-that Smith's opposition to the New York gov ernor is swinging the anti Smith faction of the 'party be-' hind Roosevelt. Says Blue Mold Cojitinues Spread Blue mold, ilea bugs-', aiid the early April cold snap will re duce the supply of healthy plants in the tobacco plant beds of eastern North Carolina to the place where it. will Hardly be possible for the., growers to plant over 65 per cent of.the acreage planted in 1931. E. Y. Floyd, tobacco special ist at State College, says that the blue mold disease is con tinuing to spread throughout the State and is working Y.-cst ward' to the plant beds of the piedmont, yet, the greatest dam age done thus far has been due to cold weather and ilea bugs. However, earlier beds which have been sprayed properly show an excellent supifly of quality plants. There has been much complaint of damage done by spraying the plants with the Bordeaux Mixture recommend ed by the college specialists. Examinations of affected beds show that the spraying was not done properly. Mr. Floyd says some growers did not mix the material as rec ommended nor was the solution propeMy applied. The spray cannot be made by dumping the blue stone and lime into a tub and mashing it up and then ap plying water. Nor can proper spraying be done with a pine top, The solution must be qf even strength and the plants must be thoroughly covered and kept covered as new growth ap pears. Despite the lack of plants, Mr. Floyd does not expect the acreage to be reduced over 35 i per cent. Growers generally plant far more tobacco than they expect to set in the field. Those who.have plants are tak ing better care of them and Mr-. Floyd says there should be enough left to plant 65 per cent of last year’s acreage by May 10. Good tobacco may be pro duced if planting is finished in eastern Carolina by that date. Read The Messenger ads. Tax Sale Has Been Postoned 2 Months In Regular Sesssion Monday, The.

Carter about one mile iuth of Leaksville on the .i■;ik- Vi 1 fe-Reidsville highway and ordered him to “stick ’em lip.” Carter did not move fast enough to suit them, so they proceeded to shoot him.
