BY CHARLES p. STEWART

Washington, July 7-Republican
are trying to convince themselves that
the circumstances of Herbert H. Leh-
mans candidacy for reelection to the
governorship of New York imply a
consciousness of weakness on Presi-
dent Roosevelt's part.
The argument is that the president
and his advisers would not have deem
ed it necessary to bring such tremen-
dous pressure upon Lehman to seek a
third term if they had not felt I'M
easy concerning Empire State pros
poets.
AS the G. O. P. folk profess to see
it, a gubernatorial nominee is entitled
to count on winning by virtue of a
presidential landslide in his party's
favor, but they do not think it so
natural for the presidential aspirant
to rely on lesser candidates. to help
him.
A STRONG CANDIDATE
1t is agreed 10y all politicians that
Lehman is strong in New York, and,
had he said in the first place that he
proposed to run again, most of them
admit that he would have been a
asset.
But when he did not say it, but said
contrary, it seems to the critics that
the White House tenants best policy
would have been to reply that, while
he appreciated the governor, he felt
able to take care of himself. Instead
of which the Rooseveltians showed
signs of near-panic and literally inn
plored the New Yorker not to desert
him.
It was good advertising for Leh-
man; it emphasized the value that the
Roosevelt supporters place upon his
political record ard personality. 1t,
however, gives some color to the claim
that they are aware they need all Of
that kind of aid they can get.
CAN HE CARRY STATE?
Well, Lehman yielded.
But, even if he is reelected, query
the Landonites, is it any certainty
that he can carry New York for the
Democratic national ticket, too?
