after about as years Of painting. New
York gives him a whopping big one
man show, and critics are so enthusi.
astic that their reports stand out
bravely in an engulfing sea of cam
paign news.
He is a small, frail man, with his
hair still brown and wavy, worn
rather long and parted in the middle.
He has done more than / 900 paint
ings. Some Of those now on exhibit
were painted more than 80 years ago.
His pictures stand lot Of wear and
tear. Critics were pretty cagey about
him for many years. AS late as 1917
they were scolding him for "erratic
modernism" But in art, as in poll
tics, the innovator Of yesterday is the
academician Of today, and wary New
York critics have quit coppering their
bets on Mr. Marin They concede
that he will stand the test Of time"
If so, he wins over a lot Of current

He studied at the Pennsylvania
Academy at Philadelphia under Ken
yon Cox He went TO Paris, did etch-
ings and came back licked. Alfred
Stieglitz, his faithful Boswell, then
as now, gave him show. 1t netted
$4,000. He went to the Tyrol, this
time to paint, not etch. Water colors
made his name and fame, although
he has done much in oil.
With his first success he bought
an island of the Maine coast. He Is
supposed to be ahsent-minded and i'm.
provident in money matters. His
friends chided him for his folly. But
in the fastening years he managed to
pay for his island, by a picture of its
coast at least once q year. In those
days, he liked to plow profits back
into the business. He took his last
$500 to buy Whatman paper. the last
of some eighteenth century rag
paper stock priced by water color
lists. He loves to fish, with easel,
brushes and paints at hand. And

back in the Republican party. AL
elements in the Republican party in
Pennsylvania are united. Clifford
Pinchot, whose popularity in the rural
counties cannot be underestimate, is
supporting Gov. Landon.
Putting it all together, am amazed
to find that the reports Of a close
race in Pennsylvania and with Roose-
welt in the lead have SO little founda-
ton. 1t all depends, of course, on
what one means by the word "close." :"
Even 25O,000 Republican majority for
Landon, in a State which is in the
habit of giving majorities three or
four times that amount to the Re-
publican electors, means a close fight.
But whatever may be the conjectures
as to actual majority. have come
to the conclusion that Pennsylvania
does not belong in the doubtful"
column. but in the sure Landon"
column.

Now what does the reader VINO
has lived and observed fairly long and
had number of contacts with human
nature-what does the reader infer
from that unusual and thrice-repeated
form of expression? I am not going
to harp on Shakespeares "[hel doth
protest too much" for do not think
that is Mr.. Roosevelt's case. Mr.
Roosevelt, in a vague way, as result
of tradition rather than thought or
conviction. takes private enterprise
for granted. He Is not, himself,
Communist Those who put the
charge that way, Mr.. Roosevelt Is a
Communist" are wrong.
Clarity of Mind Questioned.
Mr.. Roosevelt holds permanently and
consistently to any one philosophy OF
society. I do not think he realizes
that, for example, socialism and
private enterprise are mutually ex-
elusive. I do not think he realizes
that q country cannot be half one
and half the other. any more than the
country in Lincoln's time could be
half slave and half free" AS Walter
Lippmann once said Of Mr.. Roosevelt,
His mind is not very clear" And
as 1t was put by James P. Warburg,
once a Roosevelt intimate and in this
campaign Roosevelt supporter, "Mr.
Roosevelt's mind is so exceedingly un-
clear that he does not realize that the
only way he can possibly do what he
wants to do is by being dictator"
Why does Mr.. Roosevelt. again and
again, use this curious way Of trying
to carry conviction of his sincerity
Il am, I always have been, always
shall be-" He does it often, it is a
characteristic of his style-the ex-
amples I have quoted merely happen
to be recent and close together in
time. Does this reaching for force
fulness really achieve what it reaches
for? Does it truly make the effect
Of strongly-held conviction on the
speakers part, and does it carry con-
viction of the speakers sincerity to
the hearer or reader?
imagine that, lnStlnctlvely, the
reader Is vaguely disturbed by this
painstaking effort at emphasis. Only
where there is doubt does such repeti-
tive emphasis appear. The most SOL
emn affirmation Of religion, the "Cre-
do" of all Christian faiths begins SIM
ply and merely, "I believe in God"
1t does not say "I believe, have al
ways believed and I will always be-
lieve." And the most solemn legal
oath in America, the one prescribed
by the Constitution for the President,
the one Mr. Roosevelt has taken, does
not attempt emphasis by rhetorical
repetition. 1t merely says, II do SOL
emnly swear that will faithfully exc
cute the Office of President of the
United States and will to the best of
my ability preserve. protect and de-
fend the Constitution of the United
States"
suspect the reason for Mr.. Roose-
velt's curious locution is not wholly a
high-pitched effort to convince his
hearers Of his sincerity. Rather, he Is

unconsciously trying to convince him
self. He is striving for self confidence,
as much as for the confidence Of 9TH
ers. One can look at 1t sympathetic
ally as an instructive striving to de-
feat the imp Of changeableness that is
within himself. For the moment he
does convince himself. Mr.. Roosevelt
Is often very sincere-but he has an
extraordinary capacity for being sin
cere in opposite directions within
very short time.
There is evidence, public and pri-
vate, that Mr.. Roosevelt really be-
lieves. just now, that it is time for him
to take the country into q more con-
servative course. Many conservative
Democrats accept his assurance and
by it justify their support of him. But
probably they arrived at their conclu-
sion by an inverted order of thinking.
First, they decided for the sake Of
party regularity or other expediency
that they wanted to remain Demo-
Gratis. Then, after the frequent man
ner of human natlre, they sought a
reason which would justify them. So
they persuaded themselves that Mr..
Roosevelt is going to be conservative.
Many shrewd persons do not agree.
Nearly all the radicals believe Mr..
Roosevelt is going to go farther
toward radicaliSm. Communist and
Socialist leaders are advising their
followers toward cunningly designed
course. While asking for votes for
their own candidate in some States,
they urge voting for Mr.. Roosevelt in
doubtful States. They believe that
election of Mr.. Roosevelt will further
their ultimate objective. Some OF
them believe Mr.. Roosevelt is habitu-
ally radical. others are confident they
can push him in the radical direction.
Depends on Majority.
The evidence that Mr.. Roosevelt
will 60 farther toward radicahsm is
rather strong. How else explain the
alliance made by Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Farley with the Farmer-Labor
party in Minnesota and elsewhere?
The fact is that the radicals have
definite program and expectation
about Mr.. Roosevelt. If he is re-
elected. they expect during the next
four years to get rid Of the Demo-
cratic party and substitute a Farmer
Labor party. From that they expect
to go on to something which will be
somewhere between Socialism and
communism.
The real answer lies in the outcome
of the election. If Mr.. Roosevelt is
beaten, of course the question disap-
pears. If he wins, and wins only
narrowly, he will be cautiously con-
servative. But If he should win by a
fairly heavy majority, let the con-
servatives look out-and the radicals
cheer.

UNION LEADERS
 MAY TAKE APPEAL

Syracuse, N. r., July 20-tUP)- Union leaders of strike aga'tst Remington Rand, Inc. planned to- day to appeal a temporary injunc- ton against picketing granted by Supreme Court Justice Edward l., Robertson. The injunction reduced the number of pickets allowed ct the company's Syracuse plant to four, All of whom must wear badges At times the local picket line has num- bered 300 strikers, Judge Robertson criticized strikers fer alleged breaches of the peace. Ho issued the injunction against union officials Vernon M. Crofoot, Clair M. Bellows, stephen Estcy, Clarence Hotaling and union members.
 The injunction also bans pickett ing of workers homes, congregating near the Remington plant, and inc terference with strikers seeking to return to work. Judge Robertson said that Remington officials had shown "by e preponderance of cred" ible evidence" that breaches of the peace had occurred through the acts of the defendants and members of the unions. The injunction con- tinues for 10 days, but Is expected to be extended. An appeal can not be made until the appellate division ot supreme court meets.

Assisting the state motor vehicle inspectors was Patrolmar Walter Overton, loaned" to the department today by courtesy of Superintendent of Police William J. Roach.
 No accurate estimate of the num- Der. of cars in the local area yet to be inspected could be obtained but 1t is known that several hundred drivers have not yet brought their cars back to the lane for the second test after once being rejected.
 10000 on List
 Estimates place the number of cars which have not yet received the inspection StickerS throughout the state ct ct least 10000. It Is the intention of the state department to see that all of the remaining unin- spected cars either get their stickerS or are taken of the road.
 Last week inspectors began stop ping cars without stickers and handing suinmonses to the driver to visit the lane but today's action marks the beginning of the real "crack down."

It is assumed also that tourists will not be bothered, but that the inspections will be confined largely to delivery trucks and other commercial cars coming into the state on regular routes.
