But you may grasp a faint
idea of why Farley's smile is
frozen by the inside story OF
what happened to the speech
which Interior Secretary IckeS
was to have made at Boulder
Dam, but didn't. Mr.. IckeS made
one in Reno, entitled Conquer
ing Climate" Apparently he did
not convince himself. At least he
did not conquer it there. He was
discovered thereafter in seclu-
sion at a San Francisco hotel
saying he had not made a Sec
ond Nevada speech at Boulder
because the altitude bothered
him and he did not want to
drive 400 miles.
Not to take any credit away
from the altitude, it must be
reported now that Democratic
Senator Pat McCarran and
Farley did what they could to
make Mr.. Ickes appreciate the
rarity of Nevada.
The Washington times., 1938-10-25

former Senator Oddie, Mr.. Nc.
Carran said in substance:
Now listen Jim-get that
fellow out of here. I'm having
trouble enough on my hands as
it is. Maybe I'm not exactly
what you would call a New
Dealer, but I'm a Democrat, the
Democratic nominee, and this
State is borderline."
Farley promised to do what
he could, although he might
have pointed out accurately
that while Ickes is in the Demo
cratic Cabinet and making
speeches in this campaign he
is not exactly a Democratic
party speaker or at least not
under the jurisdiction of Demo
cratic headquarters. Farley did
call Ickes on the telephone:
what occurred cannot be re-
lated authoritatively, except
that you may be sure any sug-
geSticn Mr.. Farley made was
very gentle certainly nothing
like a demand or an order.
