President Faces Vital Decision

Wallace for vice president. ’ The convention meets July 19 in fchicago. Mr. Roosevelt's ability to control the convention and to have Walface pn the ticket is unquestioned. What the President must decide is whether it would be wiser to avoid the bitterness that Wallace’s renomination would create or to accept some other fupnlng mate who might surrender to the conservative Democratic organization if Mr. Roosevelt died in office and were succeeded by the vice president. f k That is about all there is to the up* oar ahout W'allace, aCUiough in the- public dispute now rt ging over the v> ce presidential ‘nomination there is tJ^lc if any ;« knowledge-
