NOMINATION TODAY << onflniied From Pnjje One) merged with the new deal mdre closely than many a weary delegate realized last night. Republican Mayor S Davis Wilson preserved the municipal peace with a timely proclamation read to the convention designating tomorrow as "President Roosevelt Day" and calling upon el! citizens to fly flags from their homes, work shops and public buildings But there is no peace between the fraction of the Democratic party led by A1 Smith. Joseph B. Ely of Massachusetts. James A Reed of Missouri, and their associates. Each at his own gait is on tne way to the camp of Alf M. Landon Smith is walking Ely ran ’’"werty-four hours after their anti-Roosevelt proclamation, Ely announced he was willing to campaign in New England for the Republican ticket. One note of protest marred the Unanimity of convention action Rep. Arthur W Mitchell, a negro elected to the house from Chicago, was introduced and from the platform bellowed a speech in favor of the administration. Sen Ellison D Smith of South Carolina and a few other delegates from his state took a walk It was the second for Smith He left the hall on the second day in protest against selection of a negro preacher to deliver the invocation. This time he said he was gone for good. "I am mad as hell,” the senator told the United Press “I am absolutely through with this convention which calls to the platform a member of a race which has threatened civilization for centuries. I am going home, leaving at noon.” Smith would not say whether he would bolt the Roosevelt-Garfter ticket nor othenvise discuss the political complications of his departure. His bolt scarcely rippled a politically stirred city in which "Mummer’s Parade” and "Mardi Gras” combined Inst night with the convention itself to start a celebration that ran far toward the dawn. A 3:15 p m. a file of musical mummers invaded the Bellevue Stratford hotel and Toured the lobby and mezzanine tooting "I’m Going To Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter ’’ At dawn the party still was going on around the town and there were bottles still to be thrown from windows high up in hotels. And as the sun rises the delegates stir, headachy sometimes with over indulgence but ready to grab their colored hats, tin horns, and badges for another day under the Kleigs and cameras The cameras are proving to be the most inspiration for the crowd of arousers at this convention " hen "either music nor nolitical enthusiasm can longer force tired feet, and exhausted bodies through the crush, the lifting of a camera flash bulb will Invite a stampede to the photogiapher and the picture that may get In the papers back home.
