By THOMAS L. STOKES | Scripps-Howard Staff Writer CHICAGO, July 20.~Intrigue of the devious and deep-dyed variety, such as never has been practiced in 8 ‘vice presidentia] nomination, is going on here, in hotel room conferences and by long-distance telephone, over the

on the broad scale, and a prize over which various factions among New Dealers are tugging for supremacy. The whole story in detail must await the memoirs and subsequent scrappy revelations by the principals. But more than enough leaks out to prove that New Dealers, when they take up politicking, can be just as tricky as those who make it a profession, and with refinements to

He is up to his ears in this vice presidential melee, manipulating by remote control from Washington, and the reports of his machinations are very fantastic, but most of them are probably true.

The essence of the Corcoran “plot” as related is that he is pulling strings behind the scenes to incite the Wallace and Truman forces against each other, so that they will smear each other sufficiently to defeat each and cause a deadlock, out of which Justice
