The Political Mill
Administration Prepares to Go Down the Line for
Democratic Nominees

the charges of W. p. A. use in politics
is to hold public investigation, with
the witnesses under oath Such an
inquiry, which has been frequently de-
manded, never has been held.
The campaign Of 1898 now gets
down to race between the Re-
publicans and the Democrats. The
relief vote Is tremendously large. Two
years ago Republicans asserted over
and over again that the w. P. A.
was being used to aid the Democratic
candidates. Affidavits were offered.
But never was there public and
open investigation to determine the
truth of these charges. What chance
Is there of such a public investi-
CATION this fall? The Senate commit
tee has shown commendable industry
In looking into charges CT political
coercion of the workers, and the use
of Federal employees in the primary
campaigns. Its work, however, has
all been done through investigators
sent into the States without a single
open hearing on the part of the
committee itself. The committee has
called on both Mr. Hopkins and Secre.
tary OF the Treasury Morgenthau to
do something about the activities of
their employees. Both Mr.. Hopkins and
Mr.. Morgenthau have replied that
they do not intend to do anything
in the cases which have been called
to their attention. If the Senate
committee would turn the spotlight
on some OF these cases of political
activity, public opinion might force
different attitude.
G. o. P. Gets Good News.
The Republican high command Is
clearly pleased with the results of
the primary elections in Wisconsin
and Massachusetts,. 1t believes that
the G. O. P. may be able to stage
comeback in Wisconsin, where for
so many years it was dominating
political party. The primaries showed
more votes cast for Republican candi-
dates than for the La Toilette
Progressives or the Democrats-the last
receiving small minority of the
vote. What they fear is that the
New Deal administration in Washing
ton may make deal with the La
Follettes for the November elections.
In order to save La Toilette for Gov
ernor, the Progressives might be will
ing to have Senator F. Ryan Duffy
reelected.
In Massachusetts,. the nomination of
former Gov. jim Curley for Gov
ernor has given the Republicans
real chance for victory Curley. who
two or three years ago was top dog
in Democratic politics in Massa-
chusetts, had a big fall-due to the
unpopularity of his administration
as Governor. In 1885 he was unable
to carry the State in his campaign
for United States Senator. Curley
had pushed adside Senator Marcus
Coolidge. the Democratic incumbent,
in his insistence upon receiving the
senatorial nomination himself
The Democrats of Massachusetts
in considerable number-rose up and
knocked Mr.. Curley down. Senator
Lodge, Republican. was elected. The
anti-Curley feeling among Democrats
in Massachusetts, is still strong-and
the Republicans hope to capitalize
on that feeling.

NEW YORK Sept. 22.-Normal

A three-day truce was voted last

with the assurance legal strike vote
would be taken Sunday if an agree
