EVERY United States senator, ac-
eording to an ancient tradition, con-
siders himself a presidential possibili-
ty. Hence the peculiar sting Of the
old remark now going the rounds of
the press that 50 far we have never
taken man out Of the senate to seat
him in the White House. It has a dis
couraging sound. But it really doesn' I
amount TO much. Because a thing
has never happened It is no sign that
it can't happen. The unexpected is
what most frequently occurs. The
unprecedented also comes about every
day IN almost ali communities, II we
can believe the newspapers and the
oldest inhabitant.
