SMATHERS SAYS CIRCLING THE CITY

JERSEY TO GIVE F.D.R. 32 VOTES

Another Third Ter Term Backer Claims VanNuys Is Trying to End New Deal.

WASHINGTON, June 21 (U. P). —Senator Smathers (D. N. J.) said today that New Jerseys 232 delegates to the 1940 Democratic National Convention will be pledged to the renomination of President] Roosevelt.

“Every Democrat in the state be- | lieves that Mr. Roosevelt, who carried New Jersey the last time by! approximately a half million major- | ity. can again sweep the state in| 1940.” Senator Smathers said in a! statement. “They all believe that he will be drafted by the party to og it to victory again next year’ Mr. Smathers’ prediction followed | another refusal by the President to discuss in a press conference] whether he would be a candidate in 1940. The President told a reporter who | asked him at his press conference | yesterday if he planned to seek re- | election in 1940 to “go stand in the corner.’ He used the same injunction to al correspondent who put the third term question to him several! months ago.

Two Senators Assailed

Reymond Schwartz, New York publicist directing a national “draftRoosevelt” movement, two Democratic Senators accusing them of attempting to split the party over the third term issue. He accused Senator VanNuys (D. Ind) of attempting to “scuttle the New Deal and sack its progressive principles” by indorsing Gov. Paul V. McNutt, High Commissioner of

the Philippines for the 1940 Demo- |

cratic nomination. Links Burke, Garner

In another telegram, Mr. Schwartz accused Senator Burke (D. Neb) of conspiring with Garner conservatives” and of attempting to hide “behind the outworn antithird term slogan in your desperate undercover plotting to stop Roosevelt and progressivism.” Solicitor General Robert H. Jackson told a convention of American business clubs here that third term talk was silly, because there is no third term really involved. Mr. Roosevelt's first term, he said, “was cancelled by the courts,” and therefore if he runs again, he'll be seeking only a second term.

The Marion County Grand Jury reem at the Coumrt House was undergoing a facelifting aperation today. For the first time in nearly 30 vears the interior arrangemenris were being changed. The walls are being painted and repaired and the familiar U-shaped desk with the “slot” for jury witnesses is to be abolished. Instead one long table is to be placed at one side of the room in a “Grand Jury Court” arrangement. A special witness chair and a chair for the deputy prosecutor, Samuel Garrison, will be placed in front. “We are changing the room arrangement so that when I want to pass something across to a juror I won't have to climb ever other jurors,” Mr. Garrison said.

He told Judge Cox that the tax laws were inequitable and that he would "do all in my power” to get the Legislature to change them. Mr. Smith attempted to show by witnesses that it would not take six months to prepare an accurate list |of property eligible for auction. In {demanding that Judge Cox not set |aside his order for the sale, Mr. Smith declared the auction laws | |were clear and cited several early Supreme Court decisions.
