BEHIND TIE SCENES
I'M THE CAMPAIGN

revealed before, that LemKc's
candidacy was part Of a "grudgc
fight"
For. years Lemke had faith in
Franklin D. RooSevelt-faith that
Roosevelt would not stand in the
way of his pet Frazier-Lemke bill,
highly inhationary measure I'M
dor which the federal government
would have assumed farm mort
cages.
After two years of patient eff
fort, he forced his bill to vote
in the House and the adminiStra-
TONS Steam-roller tactics in de-
feating it enraged him to the
point that he thought any effort
was worth it if he could beat
Roosevelt for reelection.
The only appeal the Union
Party conceivably could have had
was to the disconnected, under
privileged" elements. Roosevelt
made his appeal to such groups
and it was too bad for Lemke.
ALTHOUGH it seemed definite
IA ly established that Lemke was
drawing more heavily from those
who had previously supported
Roosevelt than from those who in
| 1882 voted for Hoover, there was
much question-certainly in many
areas-whether much Of the vote
he seemed destined to get at the
high water mark of his campaign
wouldn't have gone to Landon
anyway, in case Lemke hadn't
been running.
The slogan "a vote for Lemke
is a vote for Landon" had some
effect. So did Don't waste your
vote" '..... ...-.
Other potential Lemke voters
drifted away as it became evident
that Landon could use any anti
Roosevelt votes anyone could give
him: polls indicate that Landon
was in most areas the one to profit
from Lemke defections. ....

WASHINGTON -. When you
consider all the reams Of
publicity devoted to it and the
fact that it commanded the sup
port of some of Americas most
accomplished "r a b b ! e-rouserS,'
you have to admit that the Union
Party, under Congressman Bill
Lemke, wound up as a firSt-rate
6zzle.
The immediate effect will be
further to white Father Cough
lin, Doctor Townsend, and the
Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith down
to statureS more or less CORE
spending to the size Of the vote
their combined efforts managed to
pile up for the Hon. Mr.. Lemke.
The long run effect probably
will be insurance that none OF
these gentlemen will assume any
particular Importance in the po-
litical struggles of the future,
Gradual decline of Lemke
strength was in accordance with
predictions which most of the
cagier veteran politicians made
when the congressman's candidacy
was announced.
They were positive in the con-
viction that a third party couldn't
get anywhere unless it had some
central driving theme-that Ell
Their Father Coughlin hammerinf

MONEY IS BUT A MEANS TO AN END
LIVING = - EN&
(By BRUCE CATION

(By BRUCE CATION
The oueerest stories that ever get in the
.newspapers are the ones which appear
every now and then telling how some mlser
has died of starvation or malnutrition while
hanging on to hoard of cash that would
have bought enough food for regiment.
typical of these is a case that recently
came to light in New York. .>ir".,.
An aging spinster died in hospital al
ter having gone without food for four
weeks. The medical examiner listed her
death as suicide by starvation. "'." ~
/ As far as could be learned, the poor old
woman had been so obsessed by an unrea-
soning fear of restitution that she had
been unwilling to spend any money on
food. But she had S5279 in the bank when
= she died. =. "s''i.. "..''
What agonies of fear, distrust, and anX-
, iety preceded this climax of tragic folly we
can only imagine 1t must take tremendous
pressure, long applied, to turn mind up
; side down so that money becomes more
! valuable than the things it can buy-when
those things it can buy are, the price OF life
itself. -
But the beginnings of thing like that
are easy enough to understand. You can
see them all around you. Most OF US nave
a hint of them in our own lives.
What is involved is simply natural
confusion about the primary object OF llv-
ing, Every man shares IN it who Is too
busy at his bread-and-butter job to spare
time for the fundamental joys of life.
Whenever we get so busy making liv'
ing that we have no time left for the living
itself. we are on the same melancholy track
that this deluded spinster followed-a long
way behind her, perhaps, but still on the
! same track. ..........
For life is more than mere process OF
! getting and spending. It's highest values
, are never found in the pay envelope or IN
the dividend coupon.
These things-the bits of cash we are
able to win from frequently stubborn
Iworld-are only means to an end The end
is the greater richness and fullness of llv-
ing; the means are important only as they
s{ead to it. ~. r..., ."'- i"
Everyone is perfectly we'll aware OF this
of course; but how often, how tragicallS
often, do we get mixed up about it! Wh'
has not seen the busy citizen, ambitious
energetic, and eager to ''get ahead" deny
ing himself time with his family, time 10
those unremunerative moments of relaxa
ton and meditation that help man
spirit to expand, plugging along through
youth and middle age-and then, sudden
ly, dying before he has had chance Z
turn his achievements into happiness! >
The world, as Wordsworth remarked, i
too much with us. To make life mean VIVA
it should we have to withdraw from 1t nov
and then; we have to get our happiness
we go along. .-..--.a. ~.
If we put it off until some indefinite to
morrow when we may have time, we rul
the risk of doing as this New York woman
did-starving with money in the bank.

He reported that when he was small boy he saw the Vic toria; then named the Parthia, when the vessel arrived at Victoria in 1890 from the Orient. The Vic toria and her sister ship, the Ba- tavia, were on the first China run from Victoria and Tacoma before the development of Seattle and were at that time Cunarders, he said.
 We left the North Sea with re- luctance," he said. A document ex- pressing appreciation of the fine conduct of the officers of the North Sea, signed by members of the Montana School of Mines group will be forwarded to the offices of
