was so sure he was going to win the

he exhausted his entire bag of tricks

to save anything new for use in a sec

Financial Blues
There are also indications that Nc
Donald, his managers and workers
also have a bad case of the "finan-
cial blues" in spite of the talk
emanating from his Headquarters to
the effect that he has tapped new
and extensive sources of campaign
funds. The reports which have been

to know maintain that McDonald's
emissaries have been notably unsuc-
cessful in getting any large campaign
contributions from the liquor manu-
facturers, although there is little
question but that efforts were made
TO get| some financial help from the
whisky dlstlllers. AS a result, the
Mcdonald campaign managers are
facing the necessity of having to run
the second campaign on contributions
from one to ten dollars, with perhaps
an OCCASIONAL fifty dollar gift.
The result is that IN spite of the
optimism and hopeful talk eminating
from Mcdonald headquarters here.
most of the observers are becoming
more and more convinced that actu-
ally Mr.. Mcdonald and his managers
are being hard pressed from many
angles and that underneath the sur
face they know it and are more
than a little worried

prepared for war inevitably gets into
one sooner or later.
The pro-preparedness element, on
the opposite hand, contend that they
are the true pacifists. Their reason
ing is that a strongly armed nation
is least likely to have a conflict thrust
upon it because other peoples are
afraid to tackle it.
That is, to be toleraIbly sure that we
are left in peace, we must stand ready
to fight for peace-for our own neu-
trality anyway
NO RULE HOLDS GOOD
The answer seems to be that there
is not any satisfactory answer.
Strongly armed powers do get into
wars, and sometimes, notwithstand-
ing their apparent strength, are beat
en-. For example, Germany.
Very pacifistic countries are i'm
posed on. For example, China.
Neither rule consistently holds good,
apparently.
CONTRARY VIEWS
Curiously enough, there are mill
tarists who speak realistically and
pacifists who speak enthusiastically.
Illustratively former Congressman
Fred Briten of Illinois, long char
man of the representatives naval af-
fairs committee and a strenuous sup
porter of a big American sea estab-
lishment, always has taken the view
that ocean ornaments must be cut to
a minimum, because, if they exist
ultimately they will clash.
Contrariwise Congressman George
HuddlestOn of Alabama maintains
that reducing ornaments accom-
plishes nothing; people who feel the
urge to fight will fight with primitive
weapons if they haven't up-to-date
ones. Peace, he maintains, is in the
heart; not a mere matter of mechan-
ical equipment, or of treaties-except
as they mean something.

fellow. but he $50 far behind he can
rever even get into second place."
Now many of McDonald's support
ers are saying Eyes, we are going to
vote for Mcdonald again, but it does
not look as if he can possibly win"
while ohers are saying "Whats the
use? We were for Mac in the first
primary but he can't possibly win
now. They stole the first primary
from him and they will steal the sec
ond one, too"
Under-Cover Pessimism
This is not the talk being put out
for public consumption in McDonalds
campaign headquarters here, of
course. His manager and headquart-
ers workers are still doing their best
to radiate optimism and assurance
and to those unframed and inexperi-
enced in the art of political stage
managing and scenery painting, it all
sounds and looks very convincing. But
beneath the surface and behind the
false fronts assumed for political rea-
sons, the older and more experienced
observers can and do detect an air of
desperation if not of frantic frenzy.
Some of the Mcdonald supporters,
when off to themselves and out Of
the public gaze, are frank enough to
admit that they have a hard road to
travel in this second primary cam
paign and that the odds are decidedly
against the youthful college profess
sor. They reluctantly agree that Nc
Donald seems to have lost his hold
on the public imagination and no
longer seems able to get people stir
red up and aroused as he did during
the first campaign.
One of the principal reasons the
public is refusing to take Mcdonald
seriously any longer is that it has at
least walked up to the political Jug
glery, the hocus pocus and bogus
magic resorted to by Mcdonald in
the first campaign in his efforts to
spellbind and hypnotic the populace,
those who have been analysing the.
situation maintain. Still another fac
tor is the conviction that Mcdonald
