Believe Roosevelt Is
Planning for Third Tern,

The problem that now confrontS
the politicians, and about which
there is no rule, concerns President
RooSevelt'S course. According to
old precedent, Mr.. Roosevelt is un-
der no compulsion to suggest whom
he favors as successor. Indeed,
he would be borrowing trouble were
he to do so at this time But mem
bers of his own party and voters
generally are wondering more and
more whether he intends to seek a
third nomination and election, and
thus climax his record as a breaker
of precedents.
There are many political leaders
and students of politics who are con-
WINGED beyond a shadow of a doubt
that Mr.. Roosevelt is campaigning
even now for his third nomination.
They base their conclusion on count
less small indications, and the drive
for this result that is being carried
on by a small group of White
House intimates.
And to make the confusion worse,
there has come the announcement
by Secretary Ickes of the interior
department that Mr.. Roosevelt must
be renominated and reelected. This
was like a bombshen in the ranks
of the anti-Roosevelt Democrats
who read into those lines, printed in
the magazine, Look" the first pub
LEGATION of united efforts on the part
of the Presidents advisers with the
consent of Mr.. Roosevelt.
But if the Ickes statement was
bombsheu, a subsequent statement
by Stephen Early, one of the Sec
retaries to Mr.. Roosevelt, must be
regarded as an explosion of an en-
tire powder storehouse. To the on
locker, Mr.. Early's statement can
not be ignored; it must be accepted
as having presidential approval be-
cause of the intimate relationship
between the two men, and if it has
presidential approval, it is tanta-
mount, as far as I can see, to an
announcement of Mr.. Roosevelt's
Intentions

Observation-Disclosures long has
been described as game, and 1t
is. In consequence, there are GER
tain rules to be followed. They are
rules that are born of experience,
and the participants in the game OF
politics know full well what will hap
pen when those rules are violated.
Outstanding among these rules
none of which are written, of course
lis a thorough understanding by a
President of the United States that
he must remain silent about his
choice of a successor just as long as
it is possible to do so. Otherwise,
he obviously loses some of the sup
port that he can command from
members of his party. Any pro-
nouncement that he favors this one
or looks with disfavor upon that one
Immediately produces split. Those
not blessed with the presidential
smile become embittered and assert
their enmity.
Another rule is that once a man
is elected President, he automat-
ically becomes a candidate for a
second term. This results from the
fact that whether he is good, bad or
Indifferent as the head of the pollt-
ical party that sponsored him, that
party cannot dump him overheard
for the sake of the party itself.
Now, however, there is new con-
dition developing-one for which no
apparent or obvious rule exists.
Tradition has set up rule in this
country that no President shall seek
a third consecutive term. All
Presidents have followed it, here
tofore, and some indication has been
given by them as early as was con-
venient that they intended retiring.
The most recent situation of this
kind, of course, was the famous
statement by the late Calvin Cool
idge who was the author of 81 do
not choose to rum" Mr.. Coolidge
had served a part of the term to
which Warren G. Harding was elect
ed and was elected for one full term.
He considered he had served two
terms, and thus stated his plans for
return to private life, albeit the an
nouncement had people guessing.

tongued scandal-mongers and their
ilk may do to confuse the real
issues"
I find the general question being
asked:
Why is notice being taken now
of rumors and half-truths which
have thus far been ignored through
six years of the administration, un-
less it is the purpose to dispose
of them in advance of another CAM
paign?
I hear also this question:
How can the voters express "con-
tempt for these false rumors and
vilifications unless by vote for Mr..
Roosevelt, personally?
The answers to these questions,
of course, will vary. Those who
are heart and soul with Mr.. Roose-
welt are saying naturally that he
wants to put an end to the unfair
and poisonous attacks by answering
them openly. Those who want to
stand by the two-term tradition are
reading into those lines Mr.. Roose-
velt's determination to go ahead
and seek reelection. Why, they
ask, should the Early article and
the Ickes article be published stimuli
taneously, especially since Mr..
Roosevelt has remained silent on
his future course

The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-04

Close to one hundred members of the Holy Cross College alumni from Waterbury, the Naugatuck Valley, and other parts of this state attended the annual banquet of the local alumni group last night in the Hotel Elton. Inspiring addresses were delivered by the Rev. Richard J. Bowling, s. J., Dean of Education at Holy Cross, Rev. George s. L.. Connor of Springfield, Mass, pres ident of the general alumni asso- ciation, former Judge Daniel Pryor of Albany, N. Y, James Rocket, Commissioner of Education for Rhode Island, Attorney Thomas R. Fitzsimons of New Haven, and Att torney General Francis A. Pallotti of Hartford.
 Catholic Principles
 Unable to come to Waterbury last night the Rev. Francis J. Dolan, S. J., President of Holy Cross, sent in his place Father Bowling, a native of this city, who made an eloquent plea for Catholic principles in a world of confusion and upheaval. The crusader spirit is the one that will conquer preSent-day problems, Father Bowling told his audience.
 Discussing the physical needs at Holy Cross Father Connor pointed out that when the college observes the tooth anniversary of its found- ing in 1943 its entire building pro- gram is expected to be completed. This will include in addition to the present dormitory under construc- tion 8 science building, a gym- naSium, and faculty house.
 Attorney Fitzsimons urged the CO., ordination of the several Holy Cross Alumni units in Connecticut to the end that they may be made the clearing house for the young graduate who is faced with the ter rife obstacles today of finding a job in world in which unemploy- ment is an accepted fact.
 Pointing out that the flag and cross rise over Holy Cross college eX-judge Pryor urged an unswerv- ing loyalty to both in spirited talk that easily identified him as the well-known speaker that he is recognized to be in New York state and elsewhere.
 Brief remarks were made by MT Beckett and Attorney General Pal lotti, followed by report from Charles Bowman Strome, executive secretary of the General Alumni as- sociation, in which he told of recent activities at the college and the progress of the loyalty fund.
 John P. Kinney presided as toast master in gracious fashion. paying fine compliment in his introductory remarks to the Jesrits as educators Closing remarks were given by Dr. M. J. Lawlor, president of the. club who was reelected together with Cornelius F. Maloney, vice-president; and Attorney Maurice P. Wrenn, secretary-treasurer. .r

 Licenses at Local Office

a policy established in 1894 by open ing 12 temporary branch offices the last week in April, making total of 9 offices at which renewal licenses could be obtained during that pe- riod.
 That the temporary offices are of a definite value and service to the motoring public is shown by the tre- mendous increase recorded at such stations since they were first opened in 1884.
 The total number of licenses is- sued during ten-day period in 1884 at the temporary offices was 17,890 when thirteen stations were open. The total for the last week of April this year with 12 such offices oper- ating was 80,740, an increase of 2,618 over 1888 when a total of 78,112 were issued. These offices not only conveniently serve the motorists in the area where they are located but relieve the load at the regular offices considerably and diminish to a great extent the number of mail applica- tions. The increase in the number of car registrations issued at such offices during February is compar- able to that of the operators licenses.
 There is practically no additional expense involved in setting up the temporary offices as clerks are de- tailed from their regular duties at the Hartford office to the various stations and space is provided in local towns and city buildings and in state armories.
 Waterbury Drops
 All of the permanent offices re- corded an increase in business over last year except Waterbury which shows a decrease of $40. With the exception of Manchester, Middle town, Canaan and Rockville where slight decreases were recorded, all of the temporary offices recorded an increase.
 Following is a detailed comparison of business transacted at the various offices:

WEEKLY PENSION 1 FOR MRS O'LEARY|
Fire Board Approves Pay- ment of $25--Fire Sur-
 geOn Must Report

After lengthy discussion the fire commission yesterday voted to pay a pension of $25 a week to Mrs. Helen B. OLeary, widow of Fire Lieut.. John J. OLeary, from the depart ment's regular pension fund.
 The pension, stipulated by special act of the present legislature, is retroactive to Sept. II, 1888. The board rescinded the usual $25 monthly pension received previously by Mrs. OLeary, and voted im- mediate payment of $825 to cover the period from last Sept. Il to May 1 of this year. In the event of Mrs. O'Leary's marriage, her son, John J. will receive $10 weekly until he is 18 years of age.
 The fund from which the pension is to be drawn was designated by Corp. Counsel Charles s. O'Connor Although commissioners felt that finance board should set up an item for the pension before any payments were made, they voted unanimously to pay the pension immediately, re- imbursement to be made later by action of the board of finance.
 An application of Michael J. Nc Enerey of 99 Harpers Ferry road for appointment to the call force was filed.
 The board voted to have the fire surgeon, Dr. E. E. Fitzpatrick, sub- init regular reports in the future on firemen under treatment.
 In appreciation of firemen's ef- forts at his home in Middlebury two weeks ago, Hugh L. Thompson gave $25 to the department. The money was turned into the pension fund.
