Farley Not A
Candidate
NEW YORK, (/P)—Former post
master general James A. Farley
predicts that Henry A. Wallace’s
third party bid for the White
House will poll some 5,000,000
yotes next November. And, he
says, “from half a million to a
million” of them will come from
New York.
Wallace, the one-time national
Democratic chairman said last
flight, “is more of a threat to the
Democratic party than the Demo
cratic leaders realize.”
He was interviewed on the
"Meet the Press” radio program
during which he said flatly that
he was not a candidate for office
in 1948, “neither for the Presi
dency, nor the vice-presidency.”
“In my judgment, President
Truman will be the nominee of
his party,” Farley declared.
As Democratic vice-presidential
possibilities, he listed Sen. Millard
E. Tydings of Maryland, secretary
Of defense Forrestal, secretary of
Commerce Harriman, Supreme
Court Justice William O. Douglas,
and secretary of state Marshall.
