Do these photographs represent

slider to be good publicity for presi-
Dental candidate? Or do they rep
resent amiable compliance by Gov.
Landon with requests from photog-
raphers who want something novel?
Do they represent GOV. Landon's own
notion?
One feels the answer to the last
question is no. A better surmise Is
that ingenious photographers wheedle
for new poses and that Gov Landon
consents. possibly against his better
judgment. 1t may be that the Gov
ernor's amiability is doing him a dis
service. Among his assets as he
emerged up the public consciousness,
an outstanding one was simplicity.
The public thinks Of him as a plain
man. They think of him as having
integrity of personality in the sense
Of being a man who Is easily COM
pretended and who remains the same.
Part of this asset would attach to Gov.

he is what he is. Some of it attaches
to him because the country thinks of
him as a contrast to President Roose-
welt. Many of the votes Gov. Landon
will get will come to him merely be-
cause Of the simplicity and directness
which is in contrast with Mrs. RooSe-
velt's variety of personality and in
direction of method.

Gov. Landon cannot possibly beat
President Roosevelt in a contest Of
showmanship. and ought not to try.
If the outcome of the campaign we're
to be determined as a competition in
posing for engaging photographers
Gov. Landon Is beaten before he starts.

He is in charge Of the strong drive

Within the last few weeks, DR.. High
has been an almost daily visitor at

his career decidedly on the ascendant.
He is the first important administra-

1t is said that, having learned practical
politics as an ardent dry, he has more

DR.. High, former editor Of the
