Arkansas Man Named
For Vice President
Houston, June '<W, ? Joseph T.,
Robinson, rugged product of An Ax*
kansaa 4arm, whs chosen today to
battle for Democracy side by ckie
with Alfred E. Smith In the November
elections.
T - . r 4 s > He
was swept into the nomination
for vice president at the closing session
of th# Democratic national con*
vention with tin overwhelming vote
of 1,032 1-2.
The next high candidate on the
inal count was Maj. Gen. Henry T. Allen,
retired, who had a total of 21. But
prior to announcement of the ofAdai
figures, many states switched their
allegiance in order to climb aboard
the band we.gon of the Democratic
leader of the senate. *
Robinson was permanent chairman
of the convention that selected ^llm
as the running mate for Governor
Smith. Long before the convention
assembled, it was evident that he was
the overwhelming choice of the delegates.
With the vote impending, he
retired from the platform, turned his
gavel over to Senator Pat Harrisoi}
of Mississippi and went to his hotel
to be notified of his victory.
In choosing Robinson for vice president,
the Democrats pitted him against
Curtis of Kansas, the Repub
lican leader in the senate and the
second place man on the ticket with
Herbert Hoover. As in the case of
Curtis, friends of the Arkansas leader
said he would add strength to the
ticket in the farm sections. Robiftson
voted for the McNary-Haugen
bill at the last session of congress
and followed it up by voting to over
ride President
measure. I
