Mr.. Nicholson has announced that
he intends to accept a fee of $4,000 a
year from the company to whom he is
to supply public relations counsel
This is in addition to the S25,0O0
year from the Democratic National
Committee. His employer, Jim Farley
raises no objection to Mr.. Michelson's S
ALLEGATION of time to outside interests,
But the SCripps- Howard newspapers,
which edltorially supported President
Roosevelt for reelection seems to think
Mr. MlChelSons course is Objectionable,
saying recently:
1T is not illegal, but it is certainly
improper for Charles Nicholson. pub
liclty director of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee. to take added en-
ployment as public relations counsel
to the Crosley Radio Corp
Two Reasons Against Action.
"Mr. Mlchelson's services to private
business probably would be worth
much more than the $4,000 a year
he gets from the Democratic party
There are. however, two obvious rea-
sons why he should not work for the
Crosley Corp. and the Democratic
committee at the same time:
81. The corporation wants things
from the Government.
% Mr.. Nicholson is in a position
10 get things from the Government.
Mr.. Nicholson is the administra-
tons chief publicity adviser, He sits
with the President at press confer
ences. He is unofficially but un-
deniably part of the administration
and an influential part.
Mr.. Nicholson says. of course, that
his radio contract specifies that he
shall not act for the corporation in
dealings with Government agencies.
But even if he has the extra ordinary
ability to serve the Democratic party
and the administration with one hand
and radio concern with the other,
never letting the two hands work
together. he shouldn't do it. For
clear AS his conscience may be. many
people will believe the radio company
has hired his influence with the ad-
n1inistration and the administration
cannot afford to have it believed that
the influence of its trusted advisers is
thing to be hired"
Evening star., 1937-08-02
Administration Doesn't Object.

Unfortunately. however, the admin
istration does not object to the hiring
OF trusted advisers by corporations.
Nor does the administration object to
the sale Of campaign books to corpora
tions in violation Of the Federal cor
rupt practices act.
But fair and objective considera-
ton of the case of Charlie Nicholson
Is that it is really none of the admins
tration's business what jobs he takes.
He is not an official of the Govern
ment. He works for a political party.
He is no different from dozens of
national committeeman Of both parties
IN the past who continue in private
business or in the practice of their
professions either here or at Wash
tngton.
The simple fact of the matter is
that the Democratic National Com
mittee is in debt and cannot afford to
give Charlie Nicholson a big enough
salary to keep him exclusively in their
employ. Almost any company for
whom he may become public relations
counsel-and that's his stock in trade
would directly or indirectly come in
contact with the Federal Government.
The question is whether the Croslev
Corp, has hired Mr.. Nicholson as
lobbyist or an adviser. Mr.. Nicholson
says 1t is the latter.
Has a Precedent.
Does the fact that Mr.. Nicholson
gets fee from corporation disqualify
him from whispering into the Presi-
dents ear during press conferences?
Mr.. Nicholson can point to precedent
when the late Louis Howe, Govern
ment official and secretary to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, accepted fee from a
radio manufacturing company for a
regular weekly broadcast and another
zee later from a utility company and
didn't cease whispering into the presi-
Dental ear.
II the situation were reversed, of
course, and a Republican President
were in the White House and a Re-
publican publicity director acting as
his intimate adviser and assistant via
the ears, were to start taking fees
from some of the big corporations,
and If Mr.. Nicholson were still on the
Job doing publicity for the Democrats,
he probably would put in an order for
some extra bottles of smear paint and
60 to work with redoubled energy.
But leaving politics out of it alto
eether the question turns on the in
tellectual integrity of Mr.. Nicholson
and his readiness to draw a line be-
tween his clients when their interests
overlap, a problem quite often pre-
sented to professional men in the prac-
tice OF law. 1t may be assumed that
Charlie Nicholson will endeavor al
ways to resolve the doubts In favor
OF the administration whose spokes-
man he has been for the last four
years.

Too Few LOUIS for Svd,

SO SHY has been Cohen so far that
hardly any one of the writing bows
have been aSsociating him seriously
with the fortunes of the Nationals.
AS a result, it came as something of
q shock yesterday when Harris def
nltely named sgd to hurl three in
nlngs tomorrow against the Giants in
the Mats opening exhibition game of
the season.
Dick lanahan, the local boy who
hasn't made good yet, will start the
game. He Will be followed by Pete
Appleton and then Cohen will step
into the picture to finish the affair.
This, indeed, is distinct honor and
a vote of confidence, for sgd has not
been outstanding in his trials with
the Grlftmen, nor is he youngster.
Syd's chief fame to date, of course,
has been his ability to strike out one
Lou Gehrig, who is a member OF the
Yankees. Thi' singular ability is well
known in the base ball world. Cohen
has pulled the wool over few hitters'
eyes, but he has Gehrig stopped cold
to date. Reminiscing over these feats,
Harris has an interesting angle to
voice.
If he can do that to a great hitter
like Gehrig," he said, why can't he
fool lesser batters? I mean, it stands
to reason that he can now, especially
to left-handers. He ought to be a
mean guy for left-handers to face.
Why he actually seems to bring his
cross-f1re from behind the frs base
mans ear"
Evening star., 1937-03-16
Fight for Left Field.

NO ONE is figuring without First
Baseman Lou Gehrig and Pitcher
Red Ruffing. The two holdout artists
are sure to line up by the time the
pennant race opens, giving the
Yankees the same line up that started
the final world series game-Crosetti.
shortstop; Rolfe, third base Gehrig,
first base; Dimaggio, centerfeld:
Dickey, catcher; Selkirk, right field;
Powell, left field, and Lazzeri, second
base.
Lefty Gomez, Rufing, Monte Pear
son and Johnny Murphy. right
handler, who looks better every day,
shape up as the starting pitchers,
with Pat Malone, Bump Hadley and
Johnny Broaca set as spot pitchers.
Kemp Wicker and Vito Tamulis are
waging spirited duel for a mound
job and may do. Frank Makosky, big
right-hander who won II for Oak
land, has a good fork ball and is
likely to be used as a rally buster"
Though the infield is set with Don
Heffner and John Saltzgaver as utility
men, and the center and right field
jobs are shared by the sensational
Dimaggio and Selkirk, the tussle for
left field may be a great one. Hoag
was playing the best ball of his career
last Summer until he bumped into
Dimaggio and suffered skull concus-
sion. He's back in fine fettle this year
and is sure to give Powell run. Koy
probably will lose out and be shipped
back to Newark
Evening star., 1937-03-16
Comes Up With SCreWbalI.

THE nomination of Cohen as the
first-ranking relief pitcher is no
empty honor Few left-handers, for
instance, are accorded such a dis
tlnction. 1t is at once a Commen-
tary on Cohen's courage and control.
Last year, when critics had full time
to pass judgment on the Jewish lad
from Chattanooga, there was some
doubt as to whether he was fast
enough for the majors. Cohen is far
ahead of the average big Lacquer in
rolse. He has that, and to spare. But
1t was his fast ball, or rather lack of
1t, that caused critics to steer shy.
Now, according to Harris, he has
enough zip on his fast one to fool
major league hitterS Not only that
but sgd has joined the National
pitchers who are f1ddlng with the
screWball and this delivery is expected
to prove a tremendous help.
1T never will be much, as far as
completely fooling hitters is con-
cerned," J." advises Harris. sgd, how
ever, is smart enough to realize that
his ScreWball'S value is in serving as
q change of pace He'll be a good
pitcher this year and don't forget
1t. III venture to say that when all
is said and done, Cohen will do more
TO surprise the average person than
any pail player on the squad"
