NE‘W YORK. July 30.—-If Gov.
Smith follows his own wishes. the
aid he will render to the campaign
of John “7. Davis will consist of an
extensive speaking tour throughout
theVVeat instead, of a. third term
candidacy for t e Governorship.
During a long discussion yester-
day among the Governor, Clem L.
Shaver. campaign manager for Mr.
Davis. and George-W. Oivany. lead—
er of Tammany Hall. the Governor
offered to speak whenever and
wherever wanted in Mr. Davis' be-
half. He shied at all suggestions
that. he enter-the Gubernatorial race
'for a. third term. but the question
cannot be said yet to be My deter-
mined. -
It. will be discussed when Mr.
Smith meets Mr. Davis ’ personally
the latter part of this week. Those
who are accustomed to voice the
views of the Democratic organin-
tiou said that despite his continued
resistence to the proposal. there was
little doubt that Mr. Smith would
run if the demand made was strong
enough.
. - W
The question was complicated last
night by’Mayor Brian's announce-
ment in Chicago that he would tight
Smith to a. finish for the Democratic’
nomination. ,
'This‘declaration of war. not only
on the Governor but on the Manhat-
tan organizations as well, was rev
csivc'd with much astonishment in
Tammany Hall. Neither the Gov-
cmer‘nor Mn, Olvany would com—
ment {upon it. '
