Nature provides for her
creatures and when man
interferes with her plan of
survival of the fittest the
outcome may be not only dis
astrous to man but unhealthy
to all nature. There is a
scheme of things to protect
these creatures man terms
the dumb animals. A for
est ranger recently explained
about the bounty that had to
be lifted on mountain lions.
Due to the deer that had
been killed in large numbers
by the lion a prize was put
on his head and there was a
wholesale S hoo ting along
with the annoying coyote,
much to the pleasure of the
deer and rabbit. Previously
it had been mostly the old,
slow and i'll deer ensnared by
the mountain lion. Now by
clearing the field for him the
deer became more numerous
and gathered in large herds,

Political Destruction
OF Roosevelt Threatened

know that Mr.. Roosevelt is no
more anxious to have the United
States become involved in war than
you or 1. He realizes its cost in
blood, as well as the disarrange-
ment of world economics that fol-
lows. And if war comes, he natural
ly will want a united nation back
OF him. But, coldly and abstractly.
! repeat that war conditions are the
only set of circumstances that see
now which may prevent a thorough
going movement on Capitol Hill for
the political destruction of Mr..
Roosevelt. When l say, political de-
struction, l do not mean to imply.
or to hint that opponents Of the Pres
ident within his own party want to
send him to oblivion. They will
seek-they are seeking, now-to de-
throne him in every way except as
titular head of the party. They
want the guidance to come from old
Democratic leaders and they want
adherence to old Democratic princi-
pies. That is to say, the longtime
oracles of the Democratic party
have witnessed stupidity, sheer
dumbness, on the part of the young
squirts who have crowded close to
the President, and they want to
send those quacks back to the oblivi-
on from which they came. Further.
the old line Democrats want to avoid
wide-open split in their party. I'm
less that can be done in 1910, there
viii be a Republican victory fol-
lowed by exactly the same condi-
tons that wrecked the Republicans
after the purge" that the voters
gave the G. o. p. in 1899 and 1895

CONSIDER CHILDREN

Everything seems to be
boiled down to the easiest
way and we are more con-
fined in our belief when we
hear that they have discov-
cred a way to take the curse
off of spinach by making
sherbet out of it. It may be
of interest to many a local
youngster who has eaten it
with forbearance and distaste
and sometimes not at all.
Once in awhile you come
across a child who likes spin

would prefer to get it in the
form of ice cream.
Then they follow up this
innovation with the practical

A FAMILY REMEDY

We can't help but see,
every now and then, some
family who lack sympathy
and cooperation, with each
other. Today's family may
have more to confront it in
the way Of family problems,
and when children look on
their parents as back num-
bers" the answers to family
questions usually aren't an
swered satisfactorily. Often
older people feel that youth
is unappreciative of their adj
vantages and this draws the
parent and the child apart.
1t kills a certain comrade-
ship that a family must
have. One way for a parent
to draw the youth into closer
touch is by letting him into
the confidence Of the family
with regard to money mat
tiers. Show him the results
of honest endeavor and how
every cent of the income
s stands for conscientious
energy and toll and is there

Three Times in Row Presidents
Purge Attempts Prove Futile
Roosevelt Unable to Transmit Personal Popularity His
Followers; Political Prestige Suffers Irreparable DAM
age; Forced Realignment Seen Complete Flop.
BY WILLIAM BRUCKART
WNU Service. National Press Bldg. Washington D. C.

WASHINGTON There was quite
a sermon, for me, in the telegram
of congratulations that Virginia's
great leader, Sen. Carter Glass, sent
to Senator George upon the occa-
sion of Senator Georges victory in
the attempted New Deal purge"
in Georgia. / don't know why that
telegram was not more widely print
ed, but it was typically like Carter
Glass, so cryptic, so full Of mean
ing, that am going to reprint it
here:
Senator Walter F. George, At
lanta, Ga.
"God bless yot, Walter. Like,
wise, the sovereign State of Geor-
gia.
"Signed. Carter Glass"
To get its true meaning, one
has to recall that Senator George
was the third Democratic sena-
tor, in a row, who was openly
opposed by President Roosevelt;
the third marked to be "purged"
from the Democratic party and
the third in a row to be victorious
over the Presid ent's ill-advised
attempt to dominate voters of
state, and, in due course, the con-
gress of the United States, by
personally picking the Democratic
party nominees.
Next, Mr.. Geor &c had been sub
jected to perhaps the strongest New
Deal slap by the President, of any
of the nine senators whom the Pres
ident originally described as men
behind the times. It will be re-
called how Mr.. Roosevelt, with Sem
ator George on the platform, spoke
his blessing Of United States Attor-
ney Camp at GAINESVILLE, Ga, and
announced his conclusion that Mr..
George represented the past, not the
future. 1t was on that occasion, too,
that Mr.. Roosevelt uttered the now
famous: God bless you, Walter; I
hope we will always be friends"
The third feature to be remem.
bered is that Mr.. George won, that
former Governor Talmadge was
second and that tie New Deal can
didate was third IN the race, and
that Mr.. Georges victory was so
overwhelming that there was no
need for a run-oif primary-the
method in the solid Democratic
states Of choosing between the two
highest candidates; from the prima-
ry vote. This means that a ma
jority of the voters-more than so
per cent-voted for Mr.. George.
President's Prestige Has
Suffered Heavy Damage
Couple these facts with Senator
Tydings' victory over Rep. David ].
Lewis for the Democratic senatorial
nomination in Maryland, and Sen.
Cotton Ed" Smiths substantial
margin over Governor Johnston in
South Carolina, and it appears to me
that several conclusions are proper
and justifable. Mr.. Roosevelt went
into South Carolina in behalf Of Gov
ernor Johnston and he went into
Maryland to prom e construction of
several huge Chesapeake bay
bridges and to point to the good
qualities of Representative Lewis.
Yet, the Presidents wishes were
well ignored.
The conclusions have reached
and l believe ii y will stand the
most critical test ARE:

transmit to his { lowers the same
personal popularity that he has en-

suggestion that instead of
feeding children cod liver oil
direct, it can be fed to the
cows who give the milk to
the children to drink.
There will be many an
oldster who will boot at the
idea of making babies" out
of their children by making
things too easy for them.
But consider the many
sugar-coated items made easy
for adults. Why not give
the children a break?

Early Kind Of Match

Some Heads May Fall;
NetO Spokesn1en Appear

In consequence of these things, !
have an idea that there will be
many, many moves made during
the next session and in the session
just before the 1910 convention de-
signed to take the Democratic party
out Of the hands of the Roosevelt
advisers. / think you will see dele
gates being groomed here and
there, 10 months before they are to
be formally chosen. I believe also
that state political bosses will be-
come quite active next summer as
they watch which way the wind
blows. Some will guess wrong, some
right. Some political heads will fall
and new spokesman will appear on
the scene.
All Of these things, I predict, will
happen, barring one thing. That
one thing is war. II there is a gem
eral European war on the horizon,
then we may expect a different
course Of political events in the
United States.
What am about to say, now, is
not said in discredit of the Presi-
dent. It is merely voicing fact in
politics. If there be a general war
abroad, and, more particularly, il
American relations become involved
in it, then Mr.. Roosevelt unquestion-
ably will appeal for solidarity of
public opinion, for unanimous sup
port for the government of the ma
ton. His spokesman and henchmen
will be busy as bees showing him
to be the only man for the job, the
only man capable of saving the ma
ton. That happened in Woodrow
Wilson's time and it has happened
in every other war, and it will hap
pen again.

joyed since entering the White
House.
2. His prestige as a political lead
err, which undoubtedly was slipping
to some extent before, has now suf-
fered irreparable damage.
8. The congress that will be elect
ed in November will be the most
independent, indeed, probably the
most obstreperous, that the Presi-
dent has faced, and that spells trou-
BILE in big way.
4. There can be no discounting the
influence that victories for the con-
servatives, like those won by Tyd-
ings, Smith and George, will have
on the rest of the country in the
November elections. It is an hon.
est statement, believe, that there
are numerous voters who have been
wavering between the New Deal and
the conservative school of thought,
and large percentage of them will
turn to conservative candidate when
they have chance. They will be
influenced strongly, and that fact
worries the New Deal thinkers at
the moment.
Purge but Step In Plan
OF Political Realignrnent
But there is yet another thought
in this connection. I refer to the
Presidents program for, a realign-
ment of political groups in this coun-
try. He has called for it; of that
there is no obvious doubt. The
purge" of the senator's marked for
political destruction was one of the
early steps. So, it is significant that
Mr.. Roosevelt's early maneuver in
the direction of forced realign-
ment has succeeded to the extent of
a complete flop. The thing that
started out to be a beautiful swan
like dive became a belly-buster,
much to the chagrin Of the great
thinkers who surround the Presi-
dent and give him such poor politi-
cal advice.
There will be a condition in the
next congress that will be worthy Of
watching. Surely, no one will ex-
pect Tydings and Smith and George
and Clark of Missouri and six or
eight other senators to 60 out Of
their way to support a Roosevelt
program in which they may not
believe. There is the nucleus. There
were already 20 or more senator's of
that mind. With those reelected
after overcoming the purge" it
seems reasonable to suppose that as
little political credit as possible will
be given to the President.
House members nearly always
keep in close touch with the sena-
tors Of their respective states. par
ticularly II they are OF the same po-
litical faith. They will take encour-
agement from the forthrightness Of
their seniors and, quite naturally,
will be holder and more outspoken.
It will be much more difficult for
Democratic Leader Rayburn to hold
his majority together in the house
Of representatives because of this
new-found courage and, in some
cases. resentment.
All Of which leads into a third
phase Few Presidents have been
able to withstand bushwhacking
from Capitol Hill It confronts Mr..
Roosevelt to an unparalleled degree
because of the purge Thus, fur
Their analysis seems to offer evil
dence, at least a hint, that Mr..
Roosevelt's control of the Demo
cratic party may be broken. If it
is not now an accomplished fact. l
see no reason to expect that the
President can control the Democrat

M0vies Playing
 Today


Give Me a Sailor" and "The Romance of the Limberlost" com prise the giant double hit bill which opened a three-day engagement at the Warner Bros. State theater yes- terday.
 Heading the cast of the first hit are Martha Rave, Bob Hope, Betty Grable and Jack Whiting.
 Martha is featured in a role far different from her previous pictures. In this one she is the girl with the glamour legs" instead of the big mouth.
 The story is one of those pleasant, although complicated, affairs in which everybody is in love with ex- actly the wrong person, and all the principals have to do considerable manoeuvering before they finally wind up with just the mates they really love. In the leading roles, Miss Kaye and Hope form match-ma ing partnership, as Miss Rave wants the young mans aid in fixing up a marriage with his brother, played by Jack Whiting, with whom she has long been in love. Hope, on the other hand, wants her to help him win the hand of her beautiful sis- ter, Miss Grable.
 Complications arise due to Whit ing's indifference to Miss Rave, who is a household drudge, recognized as a good cook but nothing more. Miss Grable, moreover, hasp lans of her own and shows little interest in the young sailor who is pursuing her.
 Miss Rave turns the tables on her family and the sailors, however, when she wins a million dollar beautiful legs contest and turns into a glamor girl witb,a national repu- tation.
 The gay mood of sailors on shore leave is sustained throughout the picture, due to the able direction of Elliott Nugent. As the ugly duck ling who turns into prize-winning beauty. Miss Rave takes her place among the most attractive of Holly woods glamor girls. If she started her climb to fame with her unusual mouth, she cinched her position with her legs, unusual in an en- tirely different way.
 Jean Parker heads the cast of 'The Romance of the Limberlost while Eric Linden and Marjorie Main are featured. This film is con- sidered the best movie of the month and is adapted from the story Girl of the Limberlost' by eGne Strat- comforter.
