went before. She was a comely
woman Of 80, skilled in the rubric of
serving tea and all the niceties of
Victorian etiquette before she showed
into the ice pack and began pot

north than any other white woman.
She disliked publicity and has little
OF the histrionic sense common to ex-
plorers. So far as the reporters are
concerned, she might just as we'll make
an expedition to Flatbush At great
labor and expense it has been ascer-
tanned, however, that she takes a nice
wardrobe North with her and that she
always powders her nose before going
on deck. She probably was trapped
into these indiscreet admissions as she
has made 1t clear that all this is no
body's business.
Weaving through ice packs on an
Atlantic voyage gave her her big idea.
One Of her chief interests on her
Northern voyages is photography. She
is the daughter Of John Boyd, wealthy
Californian. The old manse at San

has uncovered all sorts Of evidence Of
administration influence Of voters in
the primary elections which inevitably
would be all the more intensified In =
Observation-Disclosures battle.
The new figures will give many an
opponent Of the administration pause
They will cause wonder as to how
much such q political stranglehold
can be overcome, and it may be that
ultimately all the voters will be forced
into one party in self-defense 50 that
at the primaries candidates can be
helped to win who do not represent
the radical views of the minority who
now dominate.
To put it another way, the Demo-
Gratis who do not believe in pump
priming and the use of public funds
for vote-getting purposes can either
Join with the Republicans In an en-
larged Republican vote as a protest
or else the Republicans can find
means Of entering the Democratic pri-
maries hereafter 50 as to make their
protest effective within the Demo-
cratic party. The same sort OF situa-
ton has developed from time to time
in the Northwestern States when large
blocs Of voters moved from one party
to the other to defeat groups who
espoused causes or policies inimical
to the solvency Of the respective State
governments. But 100000 votes
aided by government is something sem
sational to contemplate and the offi-
cially announced figures will surely
give political leaders everywhere some
thing to think about.

Likewise it is being said oficially that
business is expected with the antici-
pated autumn improvement to take
around 100000 off the w. P. A. rolls.
Naturally" Influenced.
Were it not for the admissions Of
public officials the connection between
all these Government aids and the
voting would be mere conjecture and
would be attributed to partisanship.
But it now is conceded that the voters
receiving benefits are naturally" for
the administration. Also the Senate
Committee on Campaign Expenditures
Evening star., 1938-09-10

counted upon by the Democrats,
which is more than enough to swing
any national election and virtually
all the State elections.
No such balance of power has ever
before been held by an administration
through Government favors or bene-
fits. The figures which have just been
announced have been collected by the
Social Security Board here from other
Federal agencies and from State and
local authorities. While the number
sf families aided in July is given at
6,500,000, the board estimates that
about 20,800,000 persons were covered
by the range of Government checks.
Many previous estimates have been
made unofdcially, but not until the
Social Security Board, which has bet
ter access than any other Govern
ment agency to the data, came out
with the verified data could 1t be said
that as many as 100000 persons
are in one way or another directly
related in financial way to Govern
ment nowadays
Put on 1882 Basis.
To get at the actual increase that
this all means to the Democrats it
must be assumed that the voters hith-
erto were in large part Democratic
anyway. II it be supposed that in
1882 the Democrats had so per cent
OF any given number of voters-Which
is high percentage-then out of the
100000 voters receiving benefits the
Republicans had about 40 per cent or
5,200,0o0. If the ratio today is as Mr..
Hopkins calculates it, namely, 80 per
cent Democratic and 10 per cent Re-
publican, then the Democrats, by rea-
son OF the financial aid given, have
increased their vote from 100000 to
1l,7oo,0oo, or about 100000, which
Is a sizeable quantity in a national
election.
The effect on State elections can
also be appraised. The Republicans
now have the Unprecedented total of
only Z out of the 48 States, the Demo-
cratic administration here either con-
trolling directly or being allied with
al the State machines in the other
81 States.
Incidentally, the w. P. A. total has
reached q new high. For the week
ending August ~ the total number Of
persons employed was 3,066,s53. This
IN Itself Is q substantial number of
votes, especially since a large propor-
ton are married and influence the
votes OF other relatives. The totals We're
also high just before the 1896 presi-
Dental and congressional elections.
There was tapering off after the cleo
tions and already it is being indicated
that later on in the autumn this year
the w. P. A. rolls will be cut down. The
reason given is that no more funds have
been provided beyond a certain point
and that the rolls have to be reduced
to come within the appropriation.

The Political Mill
Hale Decides to Yield Senate Seat Rather Than
Opposition to New Dealism.

When Senator Eugene Hale declined
to stand for reelection, many Of his
old friends in the Senate had gone
on. The days OF the Aldrichs, the
Culloms, the Hoars were numbered.
Senator Gibson. veteran legislator
from Vermont. neighboring State OF
Maine and. like Maine, faithful to
the Republican cause n 1885 when
all the other States fell away, is not
Of the same mind as Senator Hale.
Senator Gibson is actively campaign
ing for denomination and reelection.
Vermont's Gov. Aiken has joined-if
he does not lead-the more progress
sive wing Of the G. o. P. Senator
Gibson Is willing to 60 along, appar-
emily, with Gov. Aiken.
Steiwer Offers Precedent.
On the other hand, Senator Hale
had an example set him by another
stalwart Republican, former Senator
steiwer Of Oregon, who resigned
from the Senate last winter. steiwer
was the keynote speaker at the Re-
publican National Convention In
1895, when All M. Landon was nom-
mated. He had trained with the reg
ular Republicans in the Senate. He
was disguised with the way things
had been going in the country, politi-
cally and legislatively.
There are other Republicans in the
Senate who frankly say, in private
conversation, that unless there is a
marked change in the attitude Of
the people toward political principles
and government in the next year or
two, they, too, will not seek re-elec-
ton. Perhaps the congressional and
senatorial and gubernatorial elections
to be held in November will give them
encouragement
In the meantime, President Roose-
velt is seeking to eliminate from the
Senate Democrats who have been un-
willing to adopt the principles of the
New Deal" hook, line and sinker.
These Democrats, however, are fight
ing back vigorously. During the COM
ing week, two conservative Democrats
-so-called by the President-will run
the gantlet OF Roosevelt disapproval,
Tydings in Maryland and George in
Georgia. Senator Tydings is opposed
by the Roosevelt-supported "Davey"
Lewis, veteran member of the House,
and Senator George is opposed by
newcomer to politics, Lawrence Camp,
United States attorney-who also
had the blessing Of the President.
The New Dealers are pinning their
hopes particularly on Mr.. Lewis. II
both Tydings and George are renom-
mated. the purge will have been
total loss, so far as the Democratic
membership OF the Senate is con-
cerned
The Senate in recent years has
been the more progressive of the two
houses Of Congress This was true
even before President Roosevelt came
into Office. However, during the last
two sessions Of Congress, the Senate,
overwhelmingly Democratic. has as
serted its independence on = num-
Der Of occasions-and has taken a
conservative" stand-although the
Democratic Senator's, like Wheeler, in
sist they are the real proSressives.
