publican voters and Republican editors
continue to make their voices heard,

lican leaders-and these include some
who will have most authority after TIRE

pathetic to the idea.
There are difficulties in the way.
These should be understood in justice
to Republican leaders, who like the
idea, but hesitate to say SO publicly.

they are sure the local leaders will
not be disturbed by it, or resent it.
In the nature of things. the local
leaders of the Republican party are
apt to be surprised for while by
the suggestion that second place on
the national ticket go to member of
the opposition party.
To local leaders the suggestion Is
novel. Many have not heard of it
before. They are hardly aware of
the fundamental conditions that make
it desirable, the conditions that make
the present presidential year time
Of crisis. But such local leaders as
are delegates to next weeks conven-
ton are of good caliber. They can
readily be made tolerant of, or even
enthusiastically sympathetic to the
idea of naming Democrat opposed
to the New Deal as the Republican
candidate for Vice President.

ton, and If so, what kind OF Democrat.
1t will not do to get merely any Dem
ocrat. That would be a mere political
device and the public would see
through 1t. 1t must be q Democrat
of high character and high standing
with the country. No Democrat with
worth while personality and stand
ing will consider the suggestion until
after he has seen the platform. II
the platform Is liberal, rs it is pretty
certain to be, only liberal Democrat
will be available to run on it.
Specific Theorizing.
The whole suggestion of q coalition
ticket contains difficulty which can
be expressed by saying: First, ind
your Democrat" That Is not as easy
as oh-hand it might seem. Suppose,
for example, the Republicans should
formally ask Democratic Senator
Harry F. Byrd. of Virginia, to take the
Republican vice presidential nomina-
ton. They are Offering q gamble
which can hardly appeal to him. The
favorable end of the gamble is that
the Republicans may win and he may
be Vice President. Merely being Vice
President. merely presiding as a parli-
amentary official over the Senate.
would not appeal to a man who al
ready has seat in the Senate cham
Der and lis powerful there. The Re-
publicans might suggest that the
gamble might go further, that the
President might die and the Vice
President enter the White House. But
that gamble is at once too long and
too gruesome.
To such a Democrat as Senator
Byrd, or others now active in Demo-
cratic politics and holding Office, the
gamble has a decidedly unfavorable
end. Any Democrat who accepts the
Republican vice presidential nomina-
ton is out of the Democratic party for
all time If he runs on the Republican
ticket and the ticket fails, he is out
Of public life for good.
Some Available.
Hence the Republican suggestion
can hardly appeal to a Democrat now
in ONCE and expecting to remain
there. Only some other category of
Democrat, or one powerfully moved by
conviction and conscience, is available
for the Republican suggestion. And a
Democrat strongly moved by con-
science and conviction is not going
to accept until after he has seen the
Republican platform.
There are Democrats who are avail
able. There are Democrats of char
acter and conscience, and also Of
established good name with the pub
lie. who are utterly appalled, by the
New Deal They hope, more than any
other political hope they have, that
the New Deal be ended They will
never give support TO Mr.. Roosevelt
nor vote to re-elect him. They hope
the Republicans will nominate q
presidential candidate and write a
platform which will enable them to
go farther and vote the Republican
ticket, and publicly support it. Some
of these Democrats are of q stature
available for the vice presidential can
didate. But first they must see who
is Republican candidate for President
and what will be the platform Gov.
Landon. if he is the presidential nomi-
nee. would be satisfactory to them
But they must also see the platform.

Has Choice of Opposition.
It may be wondered how a presid-
ing officer can exert so great an inf1u-
snce on legislative progress when his
function is primarily to apply parlia-
mentary rules. But nowadays the
Speaker is really party leader and,
under the Roosevelt administration,
he is really chief lieutenant and prin-
cipal link between the Executive and
one house of Congress. Likewise, If
he Is so disposed he can stand up
against unwiSe legislation, especially
II his party colleagues insist that a
particular measures passage would be
politically damaging to them.
Representative Bankhead Of Ala
hama, who has just succeeded Mr..
Byrns to the Speakership, has not
been in good health and has for many
months been away from his post as
majority leader. He is, of course,
close to the White House and will
play ball, as did his predecessor, but
the management of New Deal policies
on the floor of the House will be in
a somewhat unsettled condition just
at a time when concentration and
harmony of purpose is essential.
Garner's Tact at Test.
Over in the Senate, on the other
hand. where Vice President Garner
a former Speaker of the House-is
active in trying to carry out White
House wishes, the situation is requtr-
ing all the tact and skill he can COM
mand. The friction on the Demo-
cratic side is noticeable. 1t has arisen
particularly over the tax bill. There
is no doubt that if the majority were
to consult their own wishes they
would modify it draSticaIly. But as
the President is pressing for passage
Of bill somewhat along the lines of
the measure that has passed the
House, the Democrats naturally do not
want to displease Mr.. Roosevelt in
year in which so many of them are
TO have their names on the ballot
with him for reelection. The gen.
eral impression is that Mr.. Roosevelt
will accept a compromise and that
the new tax law will neither raise the
desired revenue nor please anybody,
including its sponsors.
Pressure for Bills Grows.
What really is in the background
of the whole situation is that the tax
bill is the only must" proposal. and
yet. until it is finally put through
the conference committees, Congress
Is subject to pressure by groups that
have favorite measures to push. Some
of these bills will be embarrassing
politically when the voters have them
explained Yet the President would
be embarrassed with the sponsors if
he vetoed any of them. 1t would be
to his advantage, therefore, to have
the bills die in conference. The longer
the session drags on, the more oppor-
tunity there is for these extraneous
bills to be forced into a roll call. And
when that movement comes, the bills
cannot be defeated, as, on a show
down, the administration must go
ahead with them and render support.
Thus it is that few days delay
and the change in speakership may
affect the final record of laws passed
at this session of Congress and vitally
affect also the economic system.
