Listen to Elm Roar

The worst fears of republicans were realized last night when Senator Alben w. Barkley of Kentucky delivered his keynote address to the democratic national convention in the friendly city of Philadelphia. Those fears arose short days ago when another U. s. Senator, this time Frederick Steiwer of Washington, fumbled the assignment handed him of keynoting the gop. gathering. Just based on mere delivery and content the democrats had 100 per cent the better of the argument.
 If you are one of those persons who analyze and prove what public speakers proclaim from the platform, you will also be agreeably surprised and encouraged by the note of the Barkley address. This was no fllmbling for words or ideas with which to put the democratic party squarely on it's past record. Here was something straight from the shoulder and with high promise of what was to occur in the future. And in saying this we are not flushed with the enthusiasms provoked by the oratory of the speaker of last night, which is well known and acknowledged.
 &tCPAOAA~SA 0HS0nCAc WAVAl OAACA AS~ long years" chant gave the democrats an excellent chance to strike back and just as loudly as "three long years" rang through the gop. convention hall, so last night did twelve long years" with it's more devastating meaning resound. The special-privilege administrations of Hard- ing, Coolidge, and Hoover were taken up by the speaker and rightly so, for 1t is to their ways that republicans would have us return, unless perchance they expect to repudiate their own promises and adopt the same course of action that President Franklin D, Roosevelt has.
 There was tremendous amount of data brought forward by Senator Bark ley, indicting the republican party, which in turn would indict democratic party which has merely sought to undo the wrongs visited on this nation during years of false prosperity, false values, false gods of materialism, and worse still, re- fnoval of the government from Washing ton to the halls of noneyed madness. If the democratic keynoter seemed over- abundant in his praise of the President and his accomplishments, let 1t be said that much of 1t was warranted.

An Unknown Quantity

As we said last Saturday the day after the launching of the new Union party, it is still too early to prophecy with any acc curacy just what will be the final out come of it's injection into the political field. It still remains, as far as many are concerned, in the speculative category, at least its final set-up and working propor- tions take on more definite proportions.
 Commenting upon this situation today in his daily Washington column in the Waterbury Democrat, Rodney Butcher says: Tt is too early for anyone either to anticipate the worst or to toss of the Lemke complications as unimportant. The Union party can't get on the ballot in some states and won't be entertained in others. But many democrats admit Lenke seems likely to draw more from Roosevelt than Landon". That in nut shell seems to be about the general opinion everywhere. From now on 1t is apparently waiting game with Lemke holding the burden of making the first move.
 So, as we see 1t the new third party idea is yet somewhat of an unknown quantity. In other third party migra- tons we have had the spectacle of we'll known leaders withdrawing from their ECSPeCCIVS pdTCleS dHU IldkIIlR d Ulu LOE presidential honorS. But in the present fact, except for the notoriety he got in connection with the Frazer-Lemke bill, Representative Lemke is somewhat of an unknown quantity and must accomplish what appears like herculanean task to acquaint himself with the public between now and November.
 However, on the redeeming side this new and latest attempt to launch third party differs materially from others, in as much as the primary motivating force behind he movement, Rev. Charles E Coughlin, is by no means unknown to the people of this country. What part that motivating power will play in the new third party movement is the difference between similar former attempts and the present one. It is for that reason until the third party campaign gets under way and the reaction can be checked that we say, as we said before, the third party is as yet an unknown quantity and almost anything can happen.

John D. M. Hamilton ls going to be very active national chairman for the re- publican party. But he will learn with time that when he gushes over the bolt Of Alfred E. Smith and other democrats from their party, so that they will not be forced to support President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his theories of the admin istration of the federal government he does not reckon with the tenets of his own party. Mir. Hamilton evidently does not know that MT. Smith is one of those democrats upon whom the republican party turned every conceivable weapon at it's command back in 1928.
 Surely Mir. Hamilton must recall those days when republicans were making mock of Alfred E. Smith even down to his religion and his domestic life. Every thing was resorted to by the party and it's leaders to make the triumph of Her. bert Hoover complete and the rout of this New York "upstar" with his Roman of that. Not only was religious bigotry cans paid dearly for that campaign of 1928. They'll still pay, if they insist now on making mock-god of this same AL fred E. Smith.
 It was tried earlier this year when MT. Smith speaking under the auspices of the American Liberty League hit at President Roosevelt. Republicans saw in Alfred E. Smith then weapon to be used to their own advantage. MT. Hamilton evidently thinks the same holds true now that MT. Smith and others have bolted the nation al convention. Maybe 50, but we can never forget the bitterness, the contempt, the hostility towards Smith when he was campaigning the nation. Feelings like those expressed in 1928 don't change in eight years MT. Hamilton. Ours for those republicans who belittled Smith then certainly remain just the same.

 Tn other words, the progressive republicans are running the g.op. The Bull Moosers have wrested con- trol from the standpatters. The eastern rcactionaries in the party had about as much influence in Cleveland at Lake Erie mosquitoes. And they were regarded In about the same light.
 All this means that the ideals of Wall street, the political philosophy of the counting rooms, has no infiu- ence this year in either major party.

You can hear the roars now about Bryan "Bitsy" Grant. He should have been in there when the American Davis Cup team was playing the "Aussies" some weeks ago. Maybe he should have played the singles instead of Wilmer Allison. Maybe, if he had, the United States would still be in the running. It's hard to say whether or not his presence in there as 8 player would change the final out. come, but the general public will always think 1t would have. His playing now in the classic Wimbledon field gives the gerl- eral public a chance to say, T told you so". There is no gainsaying the fact that Grant is great little player and perhaps he hasn't touched the heights as yet. But you still have to remember that Allison is our national champion and only last fall defeated Fred Perry, the peer of world players for the title. Remember those things, fans when berating Allison, who this year may look the opposite of a real champion.

Representative William M. Citron of Middletown, Connecticuts lone congress- rnan-at-large, believes that public utility concerns are trying to intimidate legis- lators who showed themselves in favor of federal regulation of utilities. The term used by Representative Citron was not "intimidate," but "browbeat". Although he mentioned no names in his congress- ional utterances in public speech just before Congress adjourned the Middle town man hit at two state power concerns for including in annual reports the nota- tions that he (Citron) and Representa- tive Koppleman had voted for the

 Just eight years ago, the man who dominated the democratic convention and secured it's non- nation was ALFRED E. SMITH. Today the Happy Warrior is out of the picture.
 With him have gone Jouett shOuse, who contributed material ly to his nomination.; also JIM REED, silver crested, Caustic or- ator from Missouri: Lew Douglas, the white-haired boy of early New Deal days; and George Peek, who swung the farm vote for Roosevelt. All are bitter, sulking ifi the enemy camp.
 Lobbyists
 At the Chicago Convention in 1882, Roosevelt's floor manager was tall, gaunt Arthur Mullen o1 of Nebraska. The man who led lRoosevelts' two-thirds rule fight as chairman of the resolutions committee was Bruce Kremer of Montana. And the secretary of the Democratic National Cofm- r1ittee was Bob Jackson Of New Hampshire.
 All remain friends of Roose- veit's. But at this convention they don't count. They launched into lobbying, each made q small fortune, now on the sidelines.
 Finally there is Raymond MoIey, the man, some people once said, "wh6A made R00sevelt". Ray loved the lirne-light, and the lime-light finally got him. NOW HE IS IN THE SHADOW.

WISDOM

WISDOM
 (Minna dellert in the New York TimeS) To you alone gave my hungS heart. More eagerly than trees send roots below Unyielding earth; longed to be part Of you. No other g1adness did know Than your haif-wiing smile, your counted words What matter that my thoughts with splendid grace Rose upward like the sky-expl0ring birds: You held them earth-bound in barren place. Then wisdom granted me one interview. Surely love can be too dearly bought, And that which we in madness must pursue Is rarely worth the bitter afterthought. Desire now echoes from it's J.lent tomb Your love was such Q large and empty room
