JIM FARLEY DAY “ Democratic Bigwigs tc Honor Chairman at Dinner. J February 15 is to be •■Jim" Farley - day. - With President Roosevelt as the Chief speaker and Vice President Gar ner as master of ceremonies, the friends of the chairman of the Demo cratic National Committee will tender him a testimonial dinner on that date at the Mayflower Hotel. The dinner is being given, ac cording to Lawrence Wood (“Chip”) Robert, secretary of the Democratic National Committee and also secre tary of the Dinner Committee, so Farley's friends and associates in the last campaign may show “their deep gratitude and appreciation for the splendid work” accomplished by him in building up “the best organization in the history of the Democratic party." The list of the committee reads like a roster of all the great and near great in the Democratic party, de scribed as “84 prominent Democrats, friends of Mr. Farley." There is no suggestion in the no tice of the dinner sent out from Democratic headquarters that it is to be in any manner, shape or form a farewell party—with Farley step ping out of his present post as Post master General—although there have been rumors that he might be leav ing the cabinet.
