WILSON United Press Staff Correspeadest WASHINGTON, July 13 (UO President Roosevelt's advanee ac ceptance of an inevitable fourth term nomination by next week's Democratic national convention apparently assures a conservative- new deal battle royal over selec tlon of his running mate. Vice President Henry A. Wal lace's associates art hopeful that the president will announce pub- B f a m mm . ciy ne wouia uxe to nave Mm again on the ticket. But the power of compulsion Is gone. Mr. Roosevelt deliberately saennced it when he announced yesterday that he would accept the nomination if offered and serve If elected. He thus will be unable to repeat the strategy of 1140 when he threatened to refuse re nomination unless given his vice presidential choice. The sacrifice appears to have been in appeasement appease-ment of anti-Wallace party members mem-bers who are numerous, determined deter-mined and angry. Under these circumstances, lt will be difficult to charge Mr. Roosevelt with forcing Wallace up on the party a second time even li the vice president la able to make the- most of divided op position and obtain the bare ma jority of votes necessary for re- nomination. The two men lunched yesterday on the white house lawn their second two-hour conference In as many days. And Wallace appar ently is reconciled to Mr. Roosevelt's Roose-velt's 1944 campaign tactics. The vice president pondered the white house fourth term acceptance statement for several hours and Issued Is-sued a statement appro vine Mr. Roosevelt's action but concealing nu own aesires ana intentions. "The statement of the president today, I am sure, will not only be a great relief to the tens of millions mil-lions of people who believe tn him in the United States." Wallace said, "but also to the hundreds of millions in East Asia, Latin Am erica and the rest of the Allied world. "I have talked with many of these people and I believe I know exactly how they feel." Despite his failure to mention his personal plans or desires, Wal lace has informed friends that he will accept the nomination If tendered. He is regarded as an active candidate. Party conservatives are determined de-termined to beat him but are weakened so far by failure to agree on a singly opposition can didate. They want a man who will be "safe" In event he succeed ed Mr. Roosevelt In hie fourth term. Meantime, some of Mr. Roosevelt's new deal advisers are reported to be booming Associate Justice William O. Douglas of the supreme court, who if he succeeded succeed-ed to the presidency, would carry car-ry on the early tradition of Roose velt reform. Some usually well Informed In dividuals here believe Wallace may take himself out of the race. although the vice president's own associates repudiate such suggestions. sugges-tions. Nevertheless, the field Is comparatively open as of now. That means that almost a dozen men are prospects. They include: Sen. Elbert D. Thomas, D. Utah. Deputies Shot At In Search SALT LAKE CITY, July 12 flit) Two Salt Lake county deputy sheriffs were stalking through a field in suburban Chesterfield lest night, seeking a prowler who had been reported in the area.

When the shooting finally cea ed, the deputies found that a Jittery Jit-tery resident had mistaken them for the prowler. The only casualty was one of the deputies, who cut oil nana on a piece or Daroea wire as he dropped to the ground. WAR CORRESPONDENT GETS PURPLE HEART ROME, July 12 (UE) James E.
