Just a thought.

To the Editor Of 'he Ocala Banner
Discussing the probabilities Of the
next presidential election, a German
friend of mine made the following as
founding suggestion:
What would hinder Mr.. Roosevelt
in case of defeat in the election TO
cause a war, and thus annihilate the
whole election. This would be COM
parativelv easy, in view of the situa-
ton IL the far east. The NOvoe
Wremya says in a recent article that
Russia is not fighting for Manchuria
or Corea, but for its future influence
in the far east where avariciOus hands
were extended not only by Japan,
but by the United States and Great
Britain. Thus explaining the sympa-
thy between the American and Jap
anese.
1t stands TO reason in my miEd
that Mr.. Roosevelt will have a fine
opportunity to make a 'coup-ve-
etal.'"
The idea seems 70 be absurd, but is
it impossible?
What is the duty of the people?
suggest that we defeat Mr.. RoOse-
welt at the poll and take chances on
his attempts at usurpation.
