The Political Mill
Democrats Now Have Two Avowed
Presidential Possibilities

delegates to the national convention
and among the people who select
those delegates. While he could 60
far toward nominating another, 1t is
doubtful he will be able to nominate
himself.
The Presidents Situation.
And while President Roosevelt
can get himself renominated II he
wants to, 1t is also doubtful that he
could succeed in nominating any
one he might select-any one who
would not be acceptable to a ma
1ority Of the other candidates and
the national convention.
The President, like Mr.. Farley,
will have great influence among the
delegates, it is true. They will realize
that the nominee must be acceptable
to Mr.. Roosevelt if he is to have
chance in the general election. But
that they would stomach any selec-
tion the President might pick is
another matter.
That Is one reason the New Deal
inner circle Is so anxious to have
the President run again. They have
no hope that the President cou,G
put across, for example, Secretary
OF Commerce Harry L. Hopkins, or
Solicitor General Robert Jackson or
Justice Douglas of the Supreme
Court-or any other who might be
the desire of the New Dealers.
Trend Is to Conservatism.
The trend of the country at pres
ent is toward conservatism. That is
something the Democrats will have
to think about when it comes to
nominating a presidential candidate.
1t might be factor influencing the
President in his final determination
to be or not to be a candidate. It
may be he will come to the con-
clusion that he alone, of the liberals,
could be elected. Or 1t might be
that he would come to the conclu-
sion-Which seems entirely doubtful
that no, liberal, including himself
could win. Aside from that, however,
II the President is out of it, the con-
ventlon may turn to a more con-
servative Democrat than it would
have done couple of years ago.
The Garner people have announced
that the Vice Presidents name will
be entered in the presidential
preferential primaries-no matter
what. The first of these primaries
which are held in dozen States
takes place March II in New Hamp-
shire. New Hampshire has no IA
vorite son for the Democratic
nomination. 1t has no Democratic
Senator or Governor about whom
to rally. It presents. therefore, an
open field. If the Roosevelt sup
porters endeavor to put his name
in the primary-what will the Presi-
dent do? And If both Garner and
Roosevelt were entered in that
primary the fracas would be inter-
esting in the extreme. although it
would appear that the odds would
favor the President heavily under
all the circumstances. Still, the anti
third term sentiment might be ex-
pected to crop up.'if that sentiment
is as strong as a good many persons
say it is.

And What
They Do
Tommony Comes
Back, With O'Dwyer
As Its Threat
BY LEMUEL F. PARTON.

Like old King Cotton and tho
demon rum, the Tammany Tiger has
a way of coming back, after it has
been counted out. The New York
City fusion government has been
nationally spotlighted for its sup
posedly lethal swing on the dur
able Tiger-and. as the election now
shows that the swing wasn't so
deadly after all, an otherwise pa
rochial match gets national atten-
ton.
An honest cop" is the apex Of
the new Tammany flying wedge.
After pounding a policemans beat
for seven years, he became a lawyer,
later Judge William O'Dwyer of the
Kings County Court. He won an
elegant victory in this weeks con-
test for Kings County district at
torney and is now being weighed
and measured for the 1941 race for
the mayoralty. He has. good rec
ord and he is skilled politician.
The anti-Tammany forces aren't
undertaking him. Already they are
talking about the urgency of get
ting out the vote when the time
comes.
Young William ODwyer arrived
in New York City in 1910, at the
age of 10, from County Mayo, Ire
land. He was a hod-carrier, plas-
terer's helper, a coal passer on the
New York docks and a ditch-digger
on construction jobs. In 1917 he
became member of the police force.
He studied law at nights, and, after
seven years "in harness." took
degree from Fordham University
Law School. In 1882 he was ap-
pointed to the Magistrates Court
by Acting Mayor Mckee, and in 1887
Gov. Lehman appointed him county
judge to fill an unexpired term. The
next year he was elected to the Office
by handsome majority.
In 1884 his brother was mortally
wounded by three gunner in a cafe
hold-up. He thereafter pledged him.
self to ruthless war on the under.
world. For the last six years Brook
lyn has been in stew of gangster
scandals, and Judge ODwyers ace
in his last campaign was his promise
OF no quarter for the thugs. After
the votes were counted he elab-
Grated this pledge, saying he would
drlve every crook out of Brooklyn.
However, he added significantly. his
Office would not be a social service
forum. This has been construed as
possible joining of the 1941 issue
with the La Guardia administration.

| OemOCTatlc NdtlOndl COWmlCCee,
both of New York.
Neither Mr.. Roosevelt nor Mr..
Farley has tossed his hat in the ring.
If either made any such announce
ment, it would be a major piece Of
political news.
The supporters of Mr.. Garner,
Vice President Of the United States,
and Mr.. McNutt, Federal security
administrator, both profess entire
confidence that President Roosevelt
will not be candidate to succeed
himself-nor will he accept NOM
ination. Mr.. Garner's campaign
manager, E. B. Germany, has an
nounced that Mr.. Garner will be a
candidate for the nomination
whether Mr.. Roosevelt runs or not.
Apparently this announcement has
been made with the consent of Mr..
Garner-for certainly Mr.. Garner
has made no denial and he has had
months in which to do so.
Mr.. McNutt, on the other hand,
and also his campaign manager,
Frank McHale, have stated that If
President Roosevelt is a candidate,
Mr.. McNutt will get behind him.
So the two candidates occupy en-
tirely different positions in this
contest. Mr.. Garner is not to be
considered a member of the third
term group, while Mr.. McNutt might
easily become member of it.
Wheeler Mentioned.
Another Democratic presidential
possibility is Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana. His name
has been put forward by number
OF Western Senators, among them
Senator johnson of Colorado. Both
Wheeler and johnson have bucked
the New Deal administration on
several major occasions, among them
the court bill and reorganization
bill fights. Mr.. Wheeler is not put
ting himself forward as a candidate.
He is not going into presidential
preferential primaries in a stop
Roosevelt" movement He is a can
didate to succeed himself in the
Senate. and he will stick to that
job for the time being.
If President Roosevelt lets 1t
be known, however, that he will
not be a candidate for another
term. Senator Wheeler may be ex-
pected to step right out and make
a fight for delegates. He is popular
in the West. He would have the
support Of lot of labor leaders
and Of the rank and file of labor.
And his opposition to the court bill
made him many friends among the
more conservative Democrats and
businessmen.
1t is becoming increasingly clear
that if Mr.. Roosevelt takes himself
out of the 1910 picture, the contest
for the Democratic nomination is
likely to become a battle royal. It
will be the reverse of the old "one
for all and all for one" motto. Each
man will be for himself. Mr.. Farley.
