The G. o. p. has finally
opened up on the New Deal. ,.
They intimate that the Admin
istratiOn is suffering from soft
ening Of the Brain Trust.
The Democrats won't let the
Republicans take hand in the
New Deal, SO we can hardly
blame them for trying to
"Kibitz" q little bit.
Lots of Republicans claim
that they have lost their jobs,
due to the machine age. The
Republican machine gave it to
them, and the Democratic ma
chine took it away.
They say that the chief thing
wrong with the country is the
fact that too many professors
are trying to set it right.
1t looks like the presidential
candidate for the G. o. p. will
be Ogden Mills. But they'll
stand a better chance II they
include his other three brothers.
SO REMEMBER:
The paths Of politics lead but
to the gravy.

Did Odd. Jobs

Did Odd. Jobs
They were poor people. Very,
very poor. The Father ran a
small newspaper stand and the
Boy worked at odd jobs-when
he could find odd jobs. When
he couldn't, he helped his
Father at the newspaper stand.
The Boy, according to J. Har.
old LesSin, was almost 20 years
Of age. His Father was in the
early fifties. Their poverty was
great, but so was their love.
What they talked about and
how they passed their time need
little explanation here. Father
and Boy arose at six in the
morning; the Boy to look for
work from prospective employers
and the Father to work for looks
from prospective customers.
The Boy, finding no job, would
join his Father at the paper
stand toward the middle Of the
afternoon. They would remain
there until after seven. Then
home to their tiny flat for the
evening meal that they took
turns in preparing. Once every
two weeks, a neighborhood movie.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
It was about six months ago
that the Father began to COM
plain of pains in the stomach.
The Boy, being young, assured
him that they would disappear
in no time. The Father, being
poor, agreed.
But they didn't. Those pains
persisted. They grew worse, so
bad, in fact, that the Father was
unable to leave the house until
noon.
For almost a week, the boy
took care of the stand and waited
for his father to return to his
normal self. The wait was Of no
avail. So, one early afternoon
the boy snapped the rusty lock
and turned to his father.
Put on your cap" he ordered.
"We're gettin' right into a street
car and goin' uptown"
Coin uptown where?" asked
the father.
ITO a croaker," said the boy.
"You got bad pains in the belly
and you gotta see a doctor. I
got a guys name from a Teller
this mornin' and he's in a hotel
on Forty-six' Street. He's a good
croaker and he amt gonna cost
much cause he knows my friend,
see?"
His father shook his head.
Don't need no DOCTOR" he In
sisted doggedly. "Them pains is
goin' away by themselves. We
amt got no money to toss away
on croakers. There amt a one
of 'em worth the powder to
blow"
"Come on" said his son. "Stop
beefin' and let's go. When you're
sick. you're sick. Put on your
cap" ;.
The doctor gazed distastefully
at his new patient. His office
was no more than a small room
in a dingy hotel. But he acted
as though he were a specialist
who catered only to milliona1res.
He turned to the boy.
"You state that your father has
been ill for a week. Describe the
symptoms"
The boys eyes grew cold.
IT don't know nothin' about
them things" he said. who's the
croaker here-you or me? The
old mans got bad pains in the
belly and I wanna know what'Sa
matter with him. Are you gonna
tell us, or amt you?"
Very Sick Man
The medical man shrugged his
shoulders. He could expect no
help from that quarter. He had
the father disrobe, and for 10
minutes he tapped and mauled
him. Then he drew the boy into
the corridor.
your father is a very sick
man." he said, land needs an inl'
mediate change of climate. He
must leave New York at once and
go to a dry climate, preferably the
Southwest. Otherwise I am afraid
he will not live"
