Three years have passed, and today

Of government. And 1t is now plain
that the emergency measures, taken to

American parties.
There are men sitting on the floor
of this convention who never have
subscribed to these ideas. Yet, the
present presumption is that this pro-
gram, this birth of what is essentially
q new party, will take place without
open debate or convention deliberation.
The opponents of New Deal measures
are in q dilemma. They must accept
q coup d'etat, or they must protest, with
the entire Nation In attendance on the

BY CARLISLE BARGERON,
Stan Correspondent of The Star

PHILADELPHIA, June 25.-The
simple suggestion that the Republic
cans might win next November has
almost made a peycopathic case of
a Roosevelt nominator here who has
been making $4,000 year ever since
the New Deal came in. His friends
have thought of sending for his wife.
They say she can really handle him.
In the meantime, he alternates be-
tween the belligerency and abJect
fear and he murmurs incoherently
about the intelligence of the Ameri-
can people and about intrenched
greed.
1t seems that the height Of the
gentleman's annual income before the
three long years set in was $500 q
year. The New Deal has made him a
SIC, 0,000-a-year executive of one OF its
many enterprises. And he is not a
man not to appreciate the Importance
of such a job and to realize that 1t
places more social responsibilities upon
one. For one thing, although not a
delegate, he realized the importance
of being here and entertaining the
proper people He has an elaborate
suite and his friends say he has really
been doing things up for the proper
people in big way.
ElaborateIy Escorted.
When he ventured forth from his
suite. an official car with motorcycle
escort was at his disposal. Three men
from the office are always on hand to
shoot out on this errand or that one.
Everything, it seems, went rosy until
an old friend dropped in. The friend
made several efforts to leave during
the course of the evening but the nomi-
nator bade him stay until the crowd
leaves so we can have a talk"
When they were finally alone, the
nominator made himself another
drink, lighted a cigar and sat back
in his big plush chair.
well, Joe," he said, II am Ger
tainly sitting on the top of the world
Did you see who I had in here to-
night? That's nothing. I have had
buzz buzz and buzz buzz. You gotta
hand it to me, boy. I've certainly
come along, eh?"
The Terrible Alternative.
You're o. K, Henry, unless the
Republicans win in November"
The nominator's hand trembled. He
looked at his friend in amazement. A
peculiar color came into his face. He
gulped almost a half glass of his
drink and stood up.
Joe" he said, unevenly, what do
you rnean2"

all. the Republicans may win"
why, Joe, you're crazy. Do you
mean to sit there and tell me they
have the slightest chance?"
"Oh, Of course they have, Henry.
Don't get so excited"
At this it looked as though the
nominator's temples would burst. He
took three more swallows and it ap-
peared he might choke. He began to
cough frantically. He pounded his
fist on the table.
Recants on Dumb People.
Joe, you listen to me-listen to me
now-the American people are not
going to stand for intrenched greed
again-no, they aren't, Joe. You dom
know the American people like I do.
guess you think the American peo-
pie are dumb, eh? Well. I've made
some smart cracks like that myself,
Joe. But listen, Joe, they aren't dumb.
Joe, the American people always do
right. I guess you want the Republi-
cans to win, that's the reason you say
that-get to HI out of here-get
out, say; get out!"
At 4 o'clock the following after
noon, the nominator awakened in his
gloomy room with cigarette butts and
uncleaned glasses all over the place.
He ran to the window to let up the
curtain. 1t was raining outside. The
strangest feeling came over him, He
ran to telephone.
Joe" he called, come up here
quick. It's lonesome. I can't stand
1t. I'll Jump out the window. Listen,
Joe, do you really believe what YOU
said last night"
They gave him a male nurse last
night.

Harmony Essential.
BY DOROTHY THOMSON,

H1LADELPHIA June 25.-
- There was once time in party
conventions when keynote
speeches and all others we're
addressed to the convention itself, to
q few hundreds or thousands of alter
mates, delegates and guests, gathered
together in tangible space. The re-
ports Of these speeches, ~ noted by
newspaper men, eventually reached
the people, with whatever expedition
the communications of the times af-
forded. They reached them in the
printed word, and with the reporter
between the reader and the speaker.
The accent and emphasis had to be
supplied by the reader. There was no
mass participation. The very theory
of representative government Is not
that of direct mass democracy.
Minorities formulated programs, by
deliberative processes. and eventually
the people were given an opportunity
to choose between them.
