CERMAK DENIES ANY OPPOSITION TO ROOSEVELT Chicago Mayor ‘Plays Safe’ Behind Lewis’ Favorite Son Candidacy. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER L’nltfd Prm Staff Correspondent (Cocvrlßht. 1931. bv United Pres*) CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—Mayor Anton J. Cermak, king-pin of the powerful Illinois Democratic organization, denied today he is a party to attempts of some party wheelhorses to keep Governor Franklin j D. Roosevelt from vtoning the presidential nomination. "I have been no party to the ‘Stop Roosevelt’ movement, if such exists. lam neither for nor against Roosevelt or Ritchie. I am for our own candidate, Senator Lewis.” It is said generally by politicians that Cermak is hiding behind the favorite son candidacy of Senator James Hamilton Lewis until he knows where he wants to take the Illinois delegation at the Demo- j cratic national convention. Os course, nobody would expect ; a man like Tony Cermak to admit j that. For the present, Cermak is | for Lewis for President, and you can draw your own conclusions. ‘There's one thing I am very much interested in,” he said. “That is that the party in its platform oppose prohibition. The Democratic party can not afford to pussyfoot. I’m for letting states which want to be dry go on being dry and for letting states that want a change to have It. “I don't care how they work it out, but that is what we oftght to stand for. The party shouldn’t overthrow the many followers of Governor Smith who feels as he does about prohibition. Ritchie is w'ct enough. “Smith asked Roosevelt to run on his own ticket and that ought to convince anybody that Roosevelt is wet enough to satisfy Smith. I don’t know what Smith intends to do, but I believe he will be found supporting Roosevelt in the end.” Whereupon Cermak lifted half a glass of milk and drained it down. Cermak is anew figure in the national political gallery. Everybody in Illinois knows him and knows his power. He has been running for public office since 1902 and in those thirty years he was beaten just once—for senator in 1928 — though he ran ahead of Smith and the rest of the ticket.

Vehling into operation of warning signals at the crossing, after several witnesses said the warning bell did not sound until the train was less than eleven feet from the crossing. Mrs. Noonan was a sister of Bernard Lynch, chief of the fire prevention bureau of the Indianapolis fire department. Mrs. Noonan was born in Indianapolis and always had lived here. She was a member of St. Anthony’s church. Survivors are the husband, Thomas R. Noonan; two sons, James 13. and John, 10; her parents.

GLACIER PARK, Mont., Nov. 20. —Blackfeet Indians will eat buffalo j meat this winter. The “strong food” j on which their warlike ancestors fed j has been denied Indians as well as white men ever since the nearextermination of the bison at the end of the “Wild West” days. Now, however, the governmentprotected herds in Yellowstone National Park and elsewhere are more numerous than their natural range warrants, and surplus animals have to be disposed of every year. This year, the Blackfeet on the reservation near here are facing a. lean winter because grasshoppers and drought took too heavy a toll on their lands last summer. So Superintendent Avon Scoyen of Glacier National Park, has arranged to have 100 old bison supplied to the Indians, to be killed for meat.
