Keep Bi Busy
Some WPA Aids Want Hop- | kins in White House, Stokes Finds.
By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.—Inside New Dealers of political bent—if not of simon pure political talent— are so busy trying to make and © break presidential booms that the . _onlooker might think this was early
speaker of th€& House. He has been so discussed widely as a compromise 1940 candidate, with the probable backing of Vice President Garner, that the New Deal politicos seem alarmed.
Though Postmaster General and National Chairman James A. Farley does not train politically with
the reverse—he also is in the thumbs-down-on-Clark movement, it is learned.
That gives the stop-Clark movement more body and |substance. | ~~ Some. of the New Deal politicos, with no aid and comfort from Mr. Farley, are very busy jabout a little boom of their own which center around WPA Administrator Harry L. Hopkins. . Mr. Hopkins is closest of the close to President Roosevelt, and his friends seem to think that means he is the President’s choice, though this does not seem ta be the fact, according to high- pl aced political strategists. But the WPA Administrator's friends in the vast relief organiza- ~ {ion, extending from doast to coast, are keenly interested ih seeing their boss in the White House. From a most reliable source comes the report that an emissary of the Hopkins contirigent recently sounded out state WPA directors in one area as to how ny delegates might be rounded up there for Mr. Hopkins at the 1940 gonvention. Practical politicians| of long experience rate Mr. Hopkins’ chance of capturing the 1940 nomination at practically nil. They point out the enemies he has made|among prac- . tical politicians, including Senators, and the charges of political activity in some states, which will make him a target of criticism in the forthcoming Congress. They expect relief to become increasingly a major issue as 1940 approaches, and they argue that Mr. ‘Hopkins is so closely identified with WPA policy-making—and lately in a political role—that His nomination will be impossible. " Despite discouragement from within New Deal ranks, the boom of
recently was re-elected by a very complimentary majority, seems to be gaining strength. | It got started during the last session of Congress, when Vice President Garner let it leak out that he looked very favorably upon his younger Missouri colleague. Senator Clark was advanced as the champion about whom conservatives might rally to check the nomi- - mation of an ardent New Deal type. About the same time a headquar-

ters was established in Kansas City from which publicly began to emanate. Although opposing some New Deal objectives, Senator Clark voted fot the Wagner Labor Act and the TVA and earned quite a wreath of laurels with his Investigation of the munitions industry, which caught some big industrial and financial fry in its net. The Senator may find an obstacle in his own state in Boss Tom Pendergast of Kansas City, whose or-
ganization reaches also in other parts of the state. Senator Clark,
| who beat the Pendergast organiza-
tion when he first came to the Senate; later joined hands. But, in the recent primary, he took sides against the Pendergast machine in a bitter judgeship fight which re-
sulted in a defeat for the boss. Mr. Pendergast is reported to
favor an uninstructed delegation to the 1940 convention which, of course, would militate against the Senator’s chances. It is said that the Kansas City boss looks askance at instructed delegations since he tried twice with ex-Senator James A. Reed and got nowhere. Whether Mr. Pendergast is merely staging a threat in the effort to discipline Senator Clark and keep him on the anxious seat for his own purposes, or whether he is going to fight the Senator directly, remains to be seen. Mr. Farley still maintains a close alliance with Boss Pendergast. The Clark boom, of course, might reach the proportions where the
boss could do nothing about it and would have to go along. That's

2 MEMORIALS

| William Fortune Praised for
Life Devoted to To Charfiy,
Times Special | BOONVILLE, Nov. 21.—William
Fortune, Indianapolis businessman, was praised for a life devoted to charity and civic leadership here yesterday by Philip Lutz Jr., former Indiana Attorney General at dedication of two bronze markers. | One of the inscribed, bas-relief markers was in honor of Mr. For-
tune. The other honored the memory of the late Senator James A. Hemenway. “It seems unusual to erect a marker to any citizen during his lifetime, but the Warrick County Historical Society and the Boonville Press Club felt that if any one deserved to be honored, there was no reason why the flowers we have to give should not be given during his lifetime,” Mr. Lutz said. Mr. Lutz then listed the civic and charitable achievements of Mr. Fortune from the time he came to Indianapolis in 1882 as a reporter for
