Roosevelt Plan Meets Obstacles in Democratic Revival
Washington April 4 The movement led by Franklin D Roosevelt and Senator Thomas J Walsh to revitalize party organization meets serious obstacles. Most party leaders in and out of Congress frown on the plan for an early gathering of chieftains to set up a militant national organization. Chairman Shaver has not called such a conference and shows no intention to do so. National headquarters is lean, with only enough staff for routine correspondence. Delegates doubt any immediate good from a preconvention leadership gathering urged by Gov Alfred Smith and Senator Walsh.
