Junior Red Cross and their school

The Red Cross stresses the need

cause falls, as this type Of accident
resulted in more than half Of last
years home accident fatalities.
Among chief causes are poorly
lighted stairs, loose ratings, small
rugs improperly anchored and chill

is in process of explaining his ac-

owned, himself officially endangered.
He is the man who put through
the British pavilion at the Worlds
Fair, achitecturally, and in many
other aspects, real achievement;
SO, at least. many Americans, in
cluding Grover Whalen, think. Tall,
vigorous, commanding, black hair
spouting off a high forehead, a
senatorial nose, if Britains trade
generalissimo has a personal fault
1t lies in his didactic stance in con-
ference and in public speaking.
A year ago. he led the revolt OF
junior cabinet members against
certain policies of Neville Chamber
lain, a shocking piece of in
subordination, which, however, was
not attended by the sensational re-
suits of a previous foray against
cabinet higher-ups conducted by
Stanley Baldwin in 1922, with the
consequent downfall of the Lloyd
George ministry.
Before assuming the Office he now
holds he was parliamentary secre-
tary Of the ministries of labor, pen
sions and health. Not of the Eng
lish upper gentry. his educational
background is quite according to
Hoyle-proper public schools and
so forth. His career has been char
acterized by sturdy assaults on the
inner bureaucracy, and this alone.
it is said, has kept him from high
cabinet rank. His wife is an Amer
lean. nee Hannah Randolph of

Atlantic Clipper Remains
At Hortu After Mishup

BY the Associated Press
HORTA, The Azores, July 25.-
Eight passengers of the westbound
Atlantic Clipper remained here to-
day as result of minor mishap
to the hull when the giant flying
boat alighted here yesterday.
Pan American Airways headquar-
tiers in New York were understood
to be contemplating re-routing
clipper now at Southampton, send
ing it home by way of The Azores
instead of over it's scheduled north
ern route, or dispatching a special
clipper from Baltimore to pick up
the stranded passengers.
Among the group were Mrs. Ogden
Reid, vice president of the New York
Herald Tribune, and Paul Patter-
son, publisher of the Baltimore Sun
The impact of an unusually heavy
swell against the descending plane
caused slight buckling of the clip

The Political Mill
ForIey, Himself Possible 1910 Condidote,
Occupies Strategic Pre- Convention Position

declares himself out Of the picture.
1t Is inconceivable that he would
run for the nomination if Mr.. Roose-
welt were in the field-no matter
what he may think of the third
term tradition or the advisability
of Mr.. Roosevelt seeking another
election.
On the presumption that Mr..
Roosevelt Is not to be q candidate
for a third term-a presumption
that is likely to be proved fact
what then becomes of the position
of Mr.. Farley? Will he still be able
to stick to all his official jobs-and
be a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for President? He
might without prejudice continue
as member of the cabinet. The
President himself has called atten-
tion to dozen charming gentle
men" within the cabinet and other
high places in the Government who
may be considered candidates for
the presidential nomination. But
can Mr.. Farley be candidate and
retain the national Craftsmanship
of the Democratic party?
That would appear to be an un-
tenable position. The head of the
Democratic National Committee is
not supposed to be a protagonist of
any candidate for the Democratic
nomination unless the candidate
happens to be the President himself.
No other chairman OF the Demo-
cratic National Committee has as
pired to presidential nomination
while holding the chairmanShip. nor
has any Republican national chair
man.
Occupies Strategic Position.
The Democratic national chair
man occupies a strategic position
when 1t comes to picking delegates
to the national convention which
selects the party's presidential and
vice presidential nominees. He is
head of the committee which picks
the city in which the national con-
vention Is to be held and makes all
the arrangements for the conven-
ton.
So If Mr. Farley is to be a candi-
date for the presidential nomina-
ton he may have to decide be-
tween that candidacy and his place
as national chairman.
Everything SO far continues to
add up-so far as the Democrats
are concerned-to the fact that until
President Roosevelt clarifies the at
mosphere by announcing he will or
will not be candidate for renomi-
nation nothing is certain. 1t is no
secret that leading Democrats in
Congress believe the President
could unite the party effectively
again by declaring himself out of
the running: that under such cir
cumstances his legislative program
would have far better chances of
being enacted into law. And some
OF them hope-and believe-that
between the time the present ses-
sion of Congress adjourns and the
next session opens in January the
President will make definite state
ment regarding his plans.

and his old political lieutenant at
Hyde Park has not been disclosed
yet either by the President or Mr.
Farley. There were just three
things that the President might
have said regarding the third term.
He might have told Mr.. Farley he
had no intention of being a candi-
date, and would not be candidate,
for denomination. He might have
told Mr.. Farley he considered it
necessary for him to seek another
nomination. And he might have
said to Farley, Il haven't made up
my mind"
Unlike some of the other cabinet
officers. Mr. Farley has not declared
himself for a third term for the
President. On the other hand,
despite many reports to the con-
trary. Mr. Farley has not said he
would oppose the President if he
sought third term-has not said
SO publicly. In a conversation Mr.
Farley had with M. E. Hennessy
OF the Boston Globe on the eve of
his visit to Hyde Park Sunday, Mr..
Farley said, according to Mr.. Hen
nessys story in the Globe:
i have not told any members Of
the Senate, as alleged in these ri
dlculous stories, my position on the
third term. Those who inspire
these yarns do so for the purpose
OF creating breach between the
President and myself, but they will
not succeed. The statement made
IN the morning papers Saturday
morningJ that our talk will be the
hrSt political conference I have had
with Mr.. Roosevelt in months Is
another untruth. We conferred
two weeks ago on the political
situation
Split Was Secuted.
In this column last week it was
SAID that Mr.. Farley is not splitting
with President RooSevelt-that if
any split comes it will be the Chief
Executive who brings it about. 1t
was also predicted that no such
split would be engineered by the
President for various reasons. Mr.,
Farley's statement to Mr.. Hennessy
before he entered into conference
With the President at Hyde Park,
and the fact that when the con-
ference concluded Mr.. Farley and
the President still gave every indi-
cation of being good friends, ap-
peared to bear out these predictions
Mr.. Roosevelt's statement to the
press that his talk with Mr.. Farley
was just a continuance of political
parleys he had had with the chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee for years and that the
talk had been effective was inter-
preted as meaning that such con-
versations were expected to con-
tinue.
For six years periodic efforts have
been made by various persons to
pry Mr.. Farley loose from either his
| job as Postmaster General or his
| job as Democratic national chair
man, or both. Mr.. Farley, how
ever, has stuck closer than burr
He still occupies both positions, not
to mention the chairmanship OF

Committee.
