This phase of the Job, it is understood, would be concerned with efforts toward economic recovery, but, more specifically, with steps to be taken in the period of development after recovery. It is known that the inclusion of Mr. Smith in' his official household, provided the Democrats win. has occupied a great deal of Mr Roosevelt's thoughts.

The only positions of honor commensurate with Mr Smith's stature, it has been suggested, are those of secretary of state and treasury. "But it is not believed he would like those posts, and it felt that his peculiar abilities could not be best utilized in any of the other cabinet jobs. "On his present trip Mr. Roosevelt has promised to institute reforms affecting organ'zation of Federal departments and handling New York, Oct. 22.

(AP.) The World-Telegram, in a copyrighted story, said today that Governor Roosevelt will, create a new cabinet post if elected President and will offer it to Alfred E. Smith. The paper said it had learned that the Democratic Presidential nominee already had discussed his plan to name his rival for the nomination, provided Smith will accept, to an office "in which he can utilize his ability in handling Federal finances and reorganizing governmental departments." The World-Telegram said it had not yet been definitely decided whether the post would be an additional cabinet Job or one without portfolio, but that in either event Mr. Smith would be clothed with greater power than any cabinet member under the present system. "Mr.

Smith," the paper continued, "under the plan, would be a combination of budgetary officer and Federal coordinator.

(Special.) A secret conference of Republican Senators with President Hoover, at which the President revealed how close the country was to abandon ment of the gold standard, was narrated by United States Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut be fore a crowd that packed Concordia Hall In South St. Louis here to night. Discussing the controversy since the President made his rer erence to the gold standard at Des Moines, a controversy in which Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, a Democrat, has been a participant, Senator Bingham said he could not see any reason why the President should consult, a Democratic Senator. "But I know one Senator, a Re- publlcan, who is not far from this great audience, who conferred with the President. This Senator went into the President's ouTce by the back way.

The President warned us in this secret session that there was danger of the country going off the gold standard in two Senator Bingham said. "He said that $10,000,000 of gold was being exported by every ship and the only reason that more vas not being shipped out was that more insurance could not be obtained. Europe was under the impression that the Democratic Congress was going the limit. But I remind you that the outflow of gold ceased as soon as Congress adjourned." Praises Connecticut. Senator Bingham was accorded an ovation when he attacked assertions which Governor Roosevelt made last night at a meeting in the Coliseum.

Alluding to the Roosevelt stands on state and municipal securities, the Senator said Connec ticut is firm for the principle of state's rights and municipal home rule, and would not brook interference from Washington. He also attacked agricultural and tariff suggestions made by Roosevelt. The Bingham meeting was ar ranged largely to counterbalance the results of the Roosevelt demon stration. Senator Bineham was introduced by John S. Leahy, just retired president of the St.

Louis Bar Association, and the crowd, which Jammed the auditorium, cheered him heartily. Senator Bingham expressed his regret that so many hundreds had to stand. Frequent Applause. The audience frequently Inter rupted with applause, offered suggestions and asked questions. He discussed first repeal of the Eight eenth Amendment, and explained his belief repeal would contribute to sobriety, health and discipline.

Pledging the Democratic Party to such a policy, Governor Cross said "it plans to accomplish this by a conscious, coordinated and cooperative reduction of direct taxes on and on manufacturing ma chinery and inventories." Public Welfare Chief "Tliis reduction can be accomplished by effecting stringent economies, reduced expenditures, and other types of taxes.

The result should be to retain present employment opportunities and add new ones, increase the market for home products, particularly agricultural, increase land values and ease the burden of home-owners and tenants.
