Open campaigning for Garner for president
Washington November 13 Open campaigning for Garner for president boosters and Republican discussion of a brief intensive drive for the presidency began today ending the neutrality debate truce. Senator McNary predicted the national committee would limit major campaigning to eight or nine weeks with nominees and orators beginning in September. Senator Vandenberg favored a rapid fire campaign through September and October and a late convention if desired. Garner would be a Democratic candidate according to E B Germany who said Garner supporters are forming in every state. Garner remains in Uvalde Texas with no public statement but Dallas News predicted an announcement later this month accepting the nomination. Roosevelt has stayed silent on 1940 plans while Capper suggested he may shift toward a yes if the third term question arises.
