Farley denied this in his Indianapolis speech to Young Democrats, but Senator Guf- fey's speech, in favor of knifing, which brought him such 8 terrific facing from Senators Wheeler, Burke O'Mahoney, Holt, and others, was secretly applauded by most New Dealers.
 As long as Roosevelt thinks along these lines, only one pretense of 8 prediction is possible:

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27-The al-
 w most complete defeat of the Roosevelt program in the recent ses- sion of Congress still puzzles most of those who predicted confidently after the last electioini tihat the PreSidieint would have an entirely free hand.
 Nearly every home going mem-
 Der had from one to a dozen ex-
 explanations. The most common
 one was that the President had
 made 8 larger grab for power
 than the country would tolerate
 and that he chose the method of
 court reform which was certain
 to arouse the most bitterness and
 antagonism in and out of Con-
 gress. Defeat on this proposal led
 to defeat on nearly every other
 important m caSure Roosevelt
 planned.
 On the other hand, there is a whispered opinion general among men who helped Roosevelt in the court fight which disregards sucf consideration and attributes tht court defeat and subsequent debaclt to Roosevelt's own personal error! of judgment. This consensus, if ac' cepted, leads inevitably to the con clusion that Roosevelt in the pas has been overrated as a master poll tician and that his own overconfid' ence has been his worst enemy These points are made:
 \ Presidential advisers were di' 1s vided as to whether to mak' the first big fight of the new ad ministration on the court or fol a wage-hour bill. Friend and fot now agree that Roosevelt in Feb ruary could virtually have dictated the type of wage-hour law h' wanted. Instead, Roosevelt decided to make his big fight on court re- form.
 Q Only one or two of the Presi. Ao dents advisers favored tht court-packing plan before it wal launched. Sheer self confidence plus Roosevelt love for bold gesture in attack, along with a desire fol immediate results, led the President to choose the packing plan.
 0 With the court fight on in Os full fury, Roosevelt engaged in 1t only nonchalantly. He was so sure of himself, SO sure that his pres- tige would carry the bill, that he never really got behind 1t. When he went breezily off to Texas for a vacation he left no organized leadership of his cause behind him and the battle on his side lost momentum while the other side made progress.
 A Roosevelt underestimated 3s popular faith in the Supreme Court as one of the established in- stitutions of government.
 The fact appears to stand out that Roosevelt's nonchalant self-assur- ance led to the great mess which was the first session of the 75th Congress. His friends hope he has learned a lesson and his enemies hope he hasn't.
 Determining Factors
 Three factors may have some bearing on this point:
 \ The court fight, according to 1 administration plans. will con- tinue in one form or another. @ Roosevelt still believes he has As the support of the masses of the people" and that they support what he calls his mandate" and are willing to see to 1t that he gets what he wants. Roosevelt fooled himself in the court fight, however,

Out of the past |. {. Years ago, oh so many down the old road that between Savin Rock and Wood mont there wooden building that attracted siderable attention. Wonder if it's still there The structure was the Connecticut Building that was erected at the Worlds Fair in Chicago in 1893 by the Tracy Brothers of Waterbury Due to the influence of the late Cornelius and George Tracy and several New Haven men this structure was taken down, piece by piece, and brought all the way back to Connecticut, where the two Tracy brothers had erected the Savn RockWoodmont road For years it was showplace and attracted many people We recall seeing it once, but of late years have had occasion to travel the route and consequently Connecticuts link with the Worlds Fair has dropped out of our sight.
