WILL FURNISH TEST

| The announcement by former Mayor L. T.
Stonev of Charleston, that he will enter the race
| for the United States senate this summer IN OPP
| nosition to Senator James F. Byrnes, adds SAVIOR
70 the political situation in South Carolina and the
Forthcoming campaign.
I'm the one hand we shall have candidate for
reelection who is a champion of the New Deal
.rd has been referred to on numerous occasions
nc the administration "wheel-horse.' MI Byrnes
has been close to the Roosevelt administration
throughout and has voted against its policies on
very rare occasions. His address at the Democratic
state convention when he was chosen keynoter'
and in which he leveled a scorchng attack at CRU
ics of the administration, is indicative OF byfhes'
il might be said, is an out-and-out New Dealer
On the other hand we have Mr.. Stoney, who Is
strong stump campaigner Mr.. Stoney, as mel
oxacutive of the city of Charleston made very
ony;able record He was elected mayor of Charles
ron as opposition candidate to strong faction
that has played prominent part IN the hotoed OF
(,n.r,sston notifies for many years. AS mayor ne
hos ACCOMPLISHED a number of things for the
states principal port and he will undoubtedly nave
stroro following in Charleston and vicinity and
tho whole of the lower part of the state where he
;s hotter known than in the upper section
The platform of the Charleston candidate IS also
cIear He will canvass the state in opposition TO
the New Deal he has announced. His cme1 topic
will be the alleged wasteful spending by the pres
ont administration On this point he will find many
South Carolinians who agree with him and many
who do not.
Ono thing, however, that the StoneyByrnes bat
.lo will reveal in South Carolina is the attitude OF
+ho yotors Of the state toward the New Deal The
campaign will undoubtedly be test OF the ne"
Deals popularity. The New Deal is not as ppoular
in South Carolina as it was at one tlme but 10

of the state are ready to repudiate 1t would be

reasons. If the United States can't do 1t for a

That sounds like strong for federal regu-

But what in it's practical details, is the acute ma

centers on these points: how many men coal COM

veope what the price of coal per ton to the house
holder and the induStraist shall be, and how shall
revenue from sale at these higher prices be apPor-

Bv this Interpretation, the acute national PROB

ALVEY CAMPAIGN

Voters of South Carolina will be treated
70 a lively campaign when Tom Stohey'
former mayor of Charleston, takes the
stump to campaign for the senatorial toga
of lin Bvrnes. Those familiar with the
nolitics of Charleston in the last two dec
AIDES will well remember when Stoney'
then q very young man, succeeded III over
throwing the organization OF John Grace
SINCE his retirement from the office he has
not been very active politically, but the
campaign for the democratic nomination
should bring forth all the old oratorcal
fire that made him famous in South Caro-
lima in the early twenties. ..
Stonev is one of the most forceful speak
ers ever produced in our sister state. HIS
Gift of words carried him to the top OF the
political world in Charleston and to high
position in legal circles in the state. Add
to this gift his pleasing personality and
wide connections over the state and he
makes a formidable opponent indeed for
Senator ByrneS.
1t is not unusual that opposition to
Bvrnes should come from Charleston.
South Carolina as a state, according to the
best information obtainable, is still. solidly
Democratic and favorable to the admins
tration of President Roosevelt, but Opposl-
ton has developed from the beginning OF
the administration to the policies of the
national government. CharlestOnians, who
eat states rights for breakfast every morn
ing, see a threat to their institutions i'll the
administration, and we predict they will
turn out solidly behind the candidacy OF
one of their favorite sons.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE SAME OLD DEAL

Within a month the two major political parties
will have held their national conventions. Theo-
retically the people" choose the delegates who in
turn the candidates and write the platforms.
Actually however, small group of men in each
party do the nominating and drafting of the plat
form.
The Democratic party convention will be COM
posed of federal office-hoders and their henchmen
Mr.. Roosevelt is the boss of the Democratic Con-
vention. He dictates the platform and the people
under political obligation to him adopt it.
But hasn't this always been the rule? Certainly,
it has always been so under the Old Deal. Mis-
takenly many of US thought the New Deal would
never stoop to initiate it's predecessors would never
allow federal offce-holder to sit in national
convention, and would surely find time in its zest
for reform to introduce few virtues into the con-
venton processes of our land.
Alas, however, the Democratic national cOnven-
ton presents the same old deal
ait can hardly be that one man contains all the
wisdom in the New Deal party, that there are no
differences Of opinion, that great national po-
tical party is so devoid of talent that such thing
as a party program platform can be decided by
single boss without an opportunity for real de-
bate and real voting the merits OF the issues.
The nation is entitled to clear presentation by
the New Deal party of what it plans for the next
four years in the event that the people should en-
trust the administration with another term There
no doubt will be plenty of denunciation OF the
Republican opposition, the Liberty League and the
scions of "entrenched greed" but 10000,000 un
employed cannot feed invectives Nor can TIT
100000 employed keep the purchasing power
of their pay envelopes intact if prices begin SKY

WTASHINGTON-The big Win
w ner in the Republican pri-
maries seems to have been Mr.
Roosevelt.
That's because Roosevelt and
Democratic candidates have been
piling up larger votes in various
important states than have the
Republican candidates, particu-
larly in California, Illinois, and
Ohio.
The Ohio primary system is a
comparatively scrambled affair,
and arbitrary conclusions usually
are not to be drawn there from
the bare figures. But informed
men who four months ago were
saying that the state was lost to
the Democrats, now conCedc that
Ohio would land in Roosevelt's lap
if the election were held today.
This group includes certain Ohio
Republican congressman, speaking
IN their frankly confidential mo-
mentS.
One big factor they cite is that
Of organized labor. The United
Mine Workers have only about
10000 members in the state, but
labor there is as strong for in
dustrial unionism as anywhere
This means that most of its voters
will follow the lead of John l.
Lewis, who is strong for Roose-
welt.
Furthermore, Chic experts de-
clare, Roosevelt will get the bulk
Of the Townsend vote and the
Coughlin vote.
