PLAN FOR SWANSON
TO GO TO CONGRESS
Fears That Democratic Ma
jority Will Fall Short
FaVorS Governor.
Saunders Not as Strong in
District as Former Con-
gresham.

Virginians who come TO Washington
these days are disclosing what looks like
ono OF the smoothest political deals
ever pulled of in the Old Dominion.
1t has TO do with the aspirations II
Claude a. Swanson. now governor of
Virginia, and It explains how he hopes
to prolong his life in politics after he
leaves the gubernatorial chair. Accord
Ing TO these seers AID prophets, Swan
son wants to go 20 the United States
Senate. but is convinced that he can de-
feat neither Daniel nor Martin for the
place.
Regain Old Seat.
The next best choice is the House OF
Representatives, where he served sew
eral terms before he secured the COVER
norshIp. How he Is 70 recover his Old
seat in the House is interesting, as pre-
dicted by the prophets from the old
Dominion.
Judge Saunders. who represents the
Danville district, is not strong cam
paisner. The district is n close one.
and every election orovokes the fear
that it viii go Republican. Il did not
miss this fate very widely at the last
Congressional election, when Saunders
vote W. not what II used 10 be when
Swanson was on the job. Now comes
the rumOr that some OF Swanson S
friends would not be disappointed n.
in the next election. Saunders majority
should be cut down SO low that the
Democrats of the district would cry:
This must not go on. Give us Swan
sonl"
Let Swanson Save Day.
In the next election after that Swan
son would be ready 10 save the day
for his party. his term in the executive
mansion having expired. The Demo-
Gratis. being persuaded by Saunders de
feat Or near-dereat that another stand
ard bearer was needed, the ex-governor
would have no trouble in having himself
nominated as his party's standard bear
er.
OF course. not one OF these prophets
predicts that any OF Swausons friends
would knife Saunders at the polls al
the next election merely TO show that
Swanson is eeGed as the standard bear
er They say such is rot the case.
Even Il anybody could be found who
would descend to such tactics. they
say. such action would not be neces-
sary.
They believe Saunders weakness
Will be sufficient in itself TO give the
governor the opportunity TO get back
into the swing Of state affairs.
If Saunders does not exhibit the eX-
peCted weakness at the polls, the plan
may misCarry. But the Nirginians
who have studied the situation are
confident the weakness will appear by
some means or other.
