Washington, Sept. 1.-Br1taln and
France were no more shocked by the
Russo-German bargain than this
country's Republican party was. The
c.. 0. P.'s leadership was pretty we'll
satisfied with the 1910 political out
look until that dicker was announced.
1t reckOned that it stood a reasonably
good chance to lick President Roose-
welt if he tried for a third term. If
he didn't, but named the Democratic
candidate, Republican dope was that
the anti-New Deal Democrats would
quite generally vote Republicanly or
maybe put up ticket of their own,
making a C. O. P. victory a fairly
strong probability On the other hand
if John N. Garner, for instance, were
nominated it was foreseen that New
Deal Democracy would stay home
on election day, still giving the C. O..
P. a tremendous advantage And the
Republicans didn't believe that an
acceptable compromise Democrat
could be agreed on. The C. o. p.
strategists figured that they had a
cinch, almost.

Then that Russo-German hook-up
descended into the situation, like a
streak of lightning out of the blue.

Immediately will be raised, Don't t
change horses in the midst of such
an awful torrent And if war doesn't
follow, F. D.'l get the credit for hav-

So the Republicans were quite
thoroughly discouraged for the pres
ent, anyway. "a few weeks ago." a
