NEW ALIGNMENT S PRESIDENTIAL PLAN FOR PARTY

Leaders of Various Will Be Given Places In Campaign. By THOMAS L. STOKES

Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, July 26.—President Roosevelt long has had ambitions for a new party alignment, as nearly as possible along progressive and conservative lines. While he has made numerous | gestures in the past toward creating] a party of “liberalism”—as he sees| it—his major effort along this line will be made in his campaign for a third term. The outlines are beginning to appear clearly. It all began in real earnest with the 1938 “purge,” which, though unsuccessful in shaking off certain] conservative Democrats whom he chose as targets, nevertheless came to tion at Chicago last week.

ULL CONDUCTS | PAN-AMERICAN DRIVE TO UNITY

Seeks to Prove to Europe Determination to Defend Economic Freedom.

HAVANA, July 26 (U. P). = {United States Secretary of State \Cordell Hull took personal command today of a drive to obtain a demonstration that the Western | Hemisphere is united and prepared its political and economic sovereignty. Mr. Hull's greatest task was to obtain harmony among the 21 republics represented at the conference of American foreign minis ters on a compromise declaration regarding the orphaneq Western Hemispheric possessions of conquered European nations, Veteran American statesmen were agreed that Mr. Hull would succeed. Many diplomats privately assured the United Press that prospects were favorable for an agreement on major problems confronting the Americas, not only concerning the European colonies, but on new and greater economic co-operation, settlement of all inter-American disputes and means of combating Nazi-Fascist-Commu-nist Fifth Columns and other sub versive activities. Worldwide Move Made

Meanwhile, the first accomplishment of worldwide significance was concluded when the delegates circularized a Brazilian project indorsing the Rio de Janeiro Commission's codes on international law. The Rio de Janeiro Commission was set up by the Panama conference to deal with neutrality problems, especially those arising from the Panama declaration of a Western Hemisphere security zone. The approval resolution said that as result of its work the commission has defined the judicial nature of the continental seas, their characteristics, hostile acts prohibited in them and punishment in cases of violations. It said that now it is essential that the American republics co-or-dinate their procedure regarding the European conflict through uniformity of principles regulating the neutrality zone,

Argentina Holds Back

With 56 separate proposals before it, the conference today began correlating them into six or so resolutions representing the new world’s position in the face of rapid changes in Europe and the Far Bast. Speedy agreement was anticipated on the United States sponsored resolution on economics and other hemispheric questions, but a fight was brewing over the United | States proposal that the Americas should establish a “collective trusteeship” over the orphan colonies, The Argentine delegation, led by Dr. Leopoldo Melo, filed a declaration objecting to any action affecting Dutch, French and British colonies without giving the inof these colonies the right of self-determination., The Argentines said Jamaica, a British colony, already had informed the conference that it must be consulted before any action could be taken by the American republics, Diplomatic Channels Urged (The French National Government in Vichy had announced that | it would oppose any change in the status of its possessions in the Western Hemisphere.) While the “trusteeship” project had called for taking over the colonies outright, without consulting their owners, or inhabitants, the Argentines contended that any action should be taken through diplomatic channels, both in the Western Hemisphere and Europe, and only after the American republics had agreed that action was necessary to safeguard the peace or the defense of the new world. All Latin American countries were pleased and impressed with the economic proposals of the United States, especially because President Roosevelt had asked Congress to increase the funds of the ExportImport Bank and remove the limitations on its loans to countries in this hemisphere. Argentina gave firm support to the United States economic project. This was taken to indicate that the United States had abandoned President Roosevelt's idea of a cartel of nations in which the economic interests of all the Americas would be

pooled, which Argentina opposes.

The threat was received yesterday by Switchboard Operator George O'Neill at the fire office. He was unable to trace the call.
