turning here for the present ses-
sion of congress almost unani-
mously agree that enfranchise-
ment of women has made no
changes in the general political
alignment. Each political organ
ization has amassed about the
same number of women votes,
they say, SO that the general rela-
tive strength of each is just about
the same as it was before.
Even selection of two women
governors in Wyoming and Texas
last year resulted in no abnormal
departures from preceding ad-
m;nistrations, and their woes are
much the same as the troubles of
preceding administrations.
There has been some agitation
that women should form voting
units and vote in blocs rather
than as party adherents. But
these blocs have never been able
to organize or function effective
ly.
!. Representatives from Western
states, like Wyoming and Colo
RADIO where women have voted for
many years, contend that the FEM
mime vote divided along the
same lines as the male vote, and
that enfranchisement of feminine
members of the family meant on
ly additional voting strength with
out any sort Of political upsets.
Even in municipal elections Ike
the recent New York City con-
test, there has been no change.
Tammany, the machine which
some leaders thought women
would oppose, claims to have
amassed successful women's or
ganization. 1t welcomed women
leaders and they came in droves.
Senator Beorge Moses, Repub-
lican New Hampshire, has job on
his hands in his fight for re-elec-
ton next November.
Former Gov. Robert P. Bass
progressive Republican, has an
nounced his candidacy against the
present senator. Bass declares he
is dry and a supporter of the
world court. He has been in poll
ties in the state for 20 years and
when he entered the legislature in
1905 he launched a big fight for
reform legislation. He followed
Theodore Roosevelt in the Bull
Moose movement.
The Chicago Tribune, Republ'-
can has recently editorially ad-
vanced Senator Pat Harrison,
Democrat Mississippi as a Demo
crate presidential candidate in
1928. Harrison made the key
| note speech at the last Demo-
cratic convention and was men
toned as presidential possibili-
ty. The argument used SO effec-
lively against his unofficial can
| didacy at that time was that he
comes from the south. Politicians
generally do not believe the Dem
.,ocrats can ever win with candi-
date from the south.

7EW YORK, March 16.-
I'M One would expect that the
- love affair OF a popular
dancer and one of the jazz music
kings of America would be a real
romance.
But the Wanda Hoff-Paul White
man romance was anything but
romantic, TO quote Wanda Hoff,
now Mrs. Whiteman. 1t started
she says. as business and con-
tinued to be business for five years
before it became love affair.
Back in the days before White
man had won national fame with
his jazz orchestra, he was the lead
err of hotel orchestra in San
Francisco.
Wanda Hoff made big hit with
her dances to the accompaniment
of Whitemans music. They be-
came good friends in a business
way. as they talked about new
dance and music stunts.
Although both Of them ssoon
left San Francisco, it seemed to
be Fates decree that they should
meet again many times. Miss Hoff
was sent to hotel at Santa Bar
bara but IT wasn't long until the
Whiteman orchestra was trans
ferred there Then Whiteman was
sent to Los Angeles and a few
