In a nutshell. here is the situation
at this time: II looks like Roosevelt

Roosevelt, contributing large sums OF

inevitable. and what now looks like

bitter defeat. There IL only one thing
for the Dem ocrats to do now: contrib

IL has never seemed to appear t. the
President that he IL surrounded with

himself houndering helplessly and de-

men he has appointed to once for
