Strategy

ing put forth from New Deal quarters
in an attempt to discredit Governor
Landon were being engineered because
the New Deal fears Governor Landon
as Roosevelt opponent more than it
fears some of the other candidates for
the nomination. Frank r. Kent, the
Washington commentator for the Dem
Ocratic Baltimore Sun, asserted that
the New Deal activity against Landon's
nomination constituted "the best evil
dence of the increasing probability" of
the Kansas governors nomination. Mr.
Kent did not say that which some
other informed writer's feel, namely,
that the Landon candidacy would mean
bitter campaign on the part of the
Roosevelt forces to reflect the Presi-
dent. Nevertheless, it has been inter-
esting to note the various ways in
which Roosevelt spokesman and Demo-
cratic publicity men have been trying
to show the country that Governor
Landon is not the man who should be
nominated.
l have no quarrel with these efforts.
It is the game of politics. Virtually
anything goes. 1t is to be assumed that
present Republican maneuvers will be
concentrated in a few weeks on Mr..
Roosevelt personally as the Democratic
candidate. In fact, one hears express
sions around Washington that for the
first time in Mr.. Roosevelt's political
career, he is going to be directly under
| fire.
Just in this connection, one can re-
call that through most of the New Deal
administration, criticism of New Deal
policies and plans, almost without ex-
ception, was directed at Roosevelt ap-
pointees. The President himself has
been exceptionally free from the type
of personal attack that frequently char
acterizes political opposition. He has
had absolutely none of the kind Of
criticism that occurred in the Hoover
administration and was directed at
| Herbert Hoover, personally.
So, as we look at the campaign pic
ture just ahead Of the Republican con-
vention and only month in advance
of the meeting of the Democrats at
Philadelphia where President Roose-
welt will be renominated, without op-
position in his own party, 1 think 1t
can be said without fear of contradic.
ton that both candidates this year are
going to be smeared personally just as
fast and as long as the ammunition
holds out.

noting for the Democrats at Philadel-
phia and Senator Frederick Steiwer of
Oregon will deliver the main address
to the Cleveland convention of the Re-
publicans. Senator Barley was the

when Mr.. Roosevelt was nominated by

though it is subject not freely dis

Mf. Roosevelt wanted the same man
to do the job again, believing the Ken
tuckian to be an omen of good luck.
The selection of Senator Steiwer was
one of those things that can be said to
be a surprise and yet not a surprise.
He is, without doubt, a good man for
the job. Yet in some quarters there is
a conviction that Senator Steiwer was
picked by the So-called "Old Guard" of
eastern Republicans. Some observers
still hold the belief that the selection
of Senator Steiwer was not wholly
pleasing to the Landon forces but be
that as it may, there has been no par
ticular i'll feeling created by it. If it
represents a piece of strategy by the
eastern Republicans who were dealing
with their problem by remote control,
they apparently have played into the
hands of the more liberal wing of Re-
publicans. 1t is being predicted rather
freely that the Oregon senator's key
cote speech will lean strongly to the
liberal side but that at will stress sound
economics.

For the most part the average in
dividual does what he pleases. II
he prefers to fritter his time away
in useless things that bring him no
benefit, no profit and no culture, he
does. Many persons could improve
their cultural life vastly merely by
taking the time to read good books.
It Is culture at the lowest cost. Too
often persons who need this very
culture neglect it most because Of
the lack of strength Of purpose or
desire, and go on filling their lives
with things that are Of no value.
They play their lives away. They
never have time for the worthwhile
things because they put the frivo-
lous and the worthless things first.
It is a real job to make a real life.
It is no undertaking for a weakling
and drifter and waster. No bet
ter insight into persons life is
needed than knowledge Of what
they are doing toward self improve
ment and self culture. The answer to
this tells much. It also shows that
most people are what they are
largely through choice.
