HANGOVERS
BY LITTLE HElSKELL

Even though the next City
election is two seasons away,
there has been some activity
recently on the part of the G.
0. p. The Elephant Lads are
slowly awakening from their
sIumbers and before another IL
months will have been history,
their organization, widely scat
tered, shattered and battered
during the last four starts, will
again be taking definite form.
= To date at least a score of
prominent Republicans have told
me in no uncertain terms that
they have every reason to be-
Ieve that they will march
home with the political bacon
in 1941. And, off the record,
they already have rather
strong candidate on the verge
of "consenting" to lead the
outfit. One over----enthusiasti
Republican leader is even wor-
rying about what is to be done
with the great number of men
land one woman!) aspiring to
run for the council posts. Here's
his story: listen! 1t won't be
a question of digging up candi-
dates for the next city election"
he said; otis going to be job
keeping 'em off the ballot. In
other words it will be question
of selection - that's how conf
dent we are. You see, the Re-
pubIicans are out in the cold
now. The National administra-
tion has clipped US twice; then
came the city administration
and this was followed by Nice's
defeat. The next political bat
tie will be a riot, right down
the line, with no holds barred"
He paused for deep breath
and continued: "Po1itically
speaking, there are about $50
jobs in the city set-up, and of
these there are about dozen
each paying from between $1,000
and $500. With these high-type
jobs dangling before the eyes
of the faithful it will be COM
paratively easy for the party to
gather in sufficient amount
of sheckIes to put over bang
up campaign" And so, the c.
o. p. leader who refused to be
quoted by name, rambed on and
on and on, far, far, into the
night.

needed. Our equipment building
and the new City Hall will be
a monument to this progressive
administration. While it is true
we have made mistakes, it is
also true that we have accom-
pIished much during tie past
two years. Furthermore, we
certainly can't be accused of
playing partisan politics. be-
cause included in the personnel
of our administration are those
of opposite political faith. We
retained them solely because
of their experience, efficiency
and for the good of the people.
When the people of Hagerstown
review in 1871, the splendid
progress made by the admins
traton during the four years,
we are certain that they will
not countenance a change. We
will be returned by larger ma
jority than before"
So there you are folks. Two
years to go, and both the Ele-
plant Lads and the Donkey
Boys calling the play. AS that
guy on the radio asks: "What
do YOU think?

Boy, "EIein can repeat on past
performances. He had made us
a splendid Chief Executive and
we have plenty of material on
hand if he should decide not to
become a candidate again. This
is one of the best administra-
tons Hagerstown ever had. We
have lived up to our campaign
promises to take advantage of
all Federal aid improvements;
they certainly can't accuse us of
not improving the streets, the
