RITCHIE HEADS OFF PRESIDENTIAL BOOM Friends’ Move at Democratic State Convention Today Held Premature. Specisl Dispatch t.o The Star. BALTIMORE, September IS.--Gov. Albert C. Ritchie moved last night to block any attempt to indorse him by resolution for the presidency at the party's State convention here today. In a letter to United States Senator Millard E. Tydings, unopposed for the convention chairman, he said he had been informed such a resolution was to be introduced and requested that no ac tion be taken on it. The Governor gave as his reason that , "the proceedings of our convention to ! morrow should not be diverted from the Issues of the present campaign In this j state by any consideration of who our j next nominee for the presidency ought to be.” It is known that the Governor was moved to write this letter by reports he had received to the effect that cer tain of his friends were planning to present a resolution indorsing him as candidate for the Democratic presi dential nomination. Considered Tremature. This movement started after and was, in fact, inspired by the action of the Arkansas Democratic State convention in indorsing Senator Joseph T. Robin son of that State for the presidency. Reports also have been in circulation that the New York Democratic State convention later in the month may in dorse Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt for the presidency. These developments In the national political situation caused many of the Governor’s friends here, it is reported, to believe that unless the democracy of Maryland put forward Mr. Ritchie's name at this time the failure might be interpreted to mean that the Gov ernor did not ha v- the support of his State in any presidential aspirations 1 which he might have. Gov. Ritchie's views privately ex pressed and reflected in his letter to Senator Tydings are that It is entirely I too early to commence the consider ation of presidential candidates for ' 1932 and that It is unfair at this early | date to call on Maryland Democrats to commit themselves to any one candi date. It is also understood that the Gover nor felt an indorsement for the presi dency at this time would be more em barrassing than helpful to him, since he has not yet been re-elected, an im | portent factor in any consideration of his status as presidential timber. Expect Farm Aid Plank. A plank pledging all possible aid to the State's drought-stricken farmers will be included in the Democratic plat form. While the plank will make no specific promises, it will point out the problems of the drought-stricken areas are just beginning to develop and that the crux will be reached before the | State government’s obligations and pre rogatives under such circumstances can be determined. The various planks of the platform, it is said, are much the same as the | party's 1926 statement of achievements and principles and are expected to be accepted without objection. The similarity, it is pointed out, is | especially noticeable in the prohibition j plank. It cites the striving of the Fed | eral Government to centralize the powers of the States in Washington and attacks the Volstead act as an example of this centralization. It also advocates modification of the prohibition law and insists responsibility for enforcement of the statute rests with the Federal Gov ernment. Republicans to Meet. The convention also will formally nominate the gubernatorial and the | other State-wide candidates. The Republicans, who do not hold their convantion until next Monday, will have a tactical advantage, in that i they will see the Democratic platform first and will have time to meet and ! answer the rival planks.
