will be located in North Carolina and

bringing this about. The outlook is en-
couraging.

boratory working located in the cen

quests-and that Mr.. Roosevelt would
resist them all.
The Pueblo petition said 1000 steel

Such petitions are inspired by Mr..
Roosevelt's personal popularity and
magnetism" Senator Logan said, ad-
ding:
But I'm sure he will resist. He
can't say 50 publicly now because 1t
would lessen his influence within the
Democratic party and with Congress
Il do not think Mr.. Roosevelt has
the slightest idea Of running again. I
am opposed to his nomination for q
third term. I don't think he should
run and don't believe he will"
