ntical situation in the old Volunteer
state profoundly
II long has been a mooted question
among followers Of the erstwhile Pat
terson style Of politics whether the
doughty Governor was not more Of a
liability than an asset, anyway
His connection with the CarmaCk
case, his oftentimes Incorporate ut

| inability TO compromise on occasions
when compromise seemed the most
sensible thing to do-from his sides
point Of vlew-are things that have
produced a variety Of opinion con
corning Patterson, the effect of which
has been problematical.
Patterson undoubtedly possesses
many fine Qualities He is a winning

way never has been strewn with
