About Politics

WaShington.-From this seat In
the grandstand the view is quite
clear that New Deal leaders are
going out in this summers prima-
ries to nominate New Dealers
against the conservative old line
Democrats. have looked into the
local situation in number Of states
and congressional district and every
where the line of cleavage is show
ing. And these things are happen
ing Notwithstanding the declara-
lions of Postmaster General Nation
al Committee Chairman Farley that
there will be no interference.
1t is not the purpose here to re-
port on every one Of the states or
districts where the battle is i'm
pending between New Dealers and
old line Democrats. shall attempt,
however, to outline few Of them to
establish what Is going on and how
the New Dealers are maneuvering
to get a better grip on Democratic
party machinery.
To do this clearly, it seems to me
it ought to be recalled how Presi-
dent Roosevelt and numerous Of his
Spokesman have threatened those
Democrats who have disagreed with
New Deal policies in any serious
way. The fight over the Presidents
plan to rebuild the Supreme court
Of the United States caused Sc
rious split in the Presidents sup
port and 1t was Immediately there
after that threats we're forthcoming
about those who had refused to go
along on the court reorganization.
About the time that fight was in its
most bitter stage, it viii be remem-
bered, Senator Guffey Of Pennsyl-
vania made q radio speech In which
he attempted to kick certain Demo
Gratis out Of the party. The White
House denied any connection with
that speech, but there were few who
believed Senator Guffey was acting
ON his own initiative. That Is to
say, it appeared to be q New Deal
policy, for the Pennsylvania Demo-
crat often has served as the mouth
piece in that way.
There was comparative quiet for
awhile, but those with ears to the
ground noted many minor rum

Kentucky also provides q battle
ground. In that state, I think New
Dealers made q great mistake and
it may eventuate that the mistake
will cost them dearly. Senator
Barley, the Roosevelt spokesman
in the senate, is going to have to
fight his hardest to win renomina-
ton over Gov. Happy" Chandler.
Kentuckians here who know the poll
itics of their home state tell me
that the governor is q real challeng-
er and that he Is campaigner OF
genuine ability.
!, New Deal Error
Concerning the New Deal mis-
take: it will be remembered when
Mr.. Roosevelt interfered In senate
affairs by indicating his choice for
the, leadership upon the death Of
the great Senator Robinson Of Ar
kansas. That was the occasion
when the President wrote to Sena-
tor Barley, addressing him as
Dear Alben," and thereby attached
q title that has proved such source
of levity. When 1t became apparent
that Mr.. Barley would meet oppo-
sition, the New Deal promoted q tes-
timonial dinner for the senator and
sent numerous New Deal wheel
horses to Louisville to attend. Among
them was Marvin Mcintyre, assist
ant secretary to the President. Well.
the Chandler folks built up test-
monial luncheon for the governor
ON the same day. Although Mr.. NC
Intyre reached Louisville in time,
he "just could not make it" to get
to the Chandler luncheon. So that
was that, and hundreds Of Ken
tuckians at once decided that the
New Deal was going to have Mr..
Barley and that made them say
to themselves that they would
choose their senator. It Is Of such
incidents that political victories and
political defeats are made.
Another battle-ground yet to be
mentioned is Iowa. eSnator Gil
lette was among those who did not
like the Presidents court reorgani-
zation scheme, and said so. From
there on, he has been q marked
man. He will have to fight for
denomination, therefore, against
New Dealer-rather, an opponent Of
New Deal selection. Representative
Wearin has announced that he will
be candidate for the Democratic
nomination.

Former Resident Rela-

Mrs. Vivian Church Hoyt, q for
mer Kennewick resident, who is
now residing in Oak Park, Illinois,
received recognition as being the
first painter Of relatively landscapes.
Since she was q girl in grammar
school Mrs. Hoyt has been an art
list. Three years ago she decided to
do series of landscapes as seen on
q vacation trip through Illinois. Her
son Howard supplied the idea of
painting while they rode" Since
that time Mrs. Hoyt has been paint
ing as the average person sees 1t
from q speeding automobile. She
states that relatively painting is
spontaneous expression and she is
expressing in color and design what
millions of motorists have meant
when they say, pretty" or fiat
or beautiful" There were seventy
six of these pictures which were
done on various trips in the last
three years on exhibition at Man
del's club woman's bureau, which
was held recently in Chicago. Mrs.
Hoyt, who is named In Who's Who
in American Art" as the first paint
er Of relatively landscapes, has done

rumblings presaged another earth

many directions.
Young James Roosevelt, son and
secretary of the President, who is
just now serving tour Of duty as
q lieutenant colonel in the marine
corps, was In Florida last month.
While there he took occasion to say
publicly that Sen. Claude Pepper,
New Dealer, ought to be renomi-
mated and reelected. Well, Senator
Pepper is such an ardent New Deal

Roosevelt's endorsement may be

That is to say, the race was so

other. Now, however, Representa-
