WASHINGTON.-Two moves by
President Roosevelt effectually
spiked the notion of politics being
adjourned" during the emergency.
One was the Presidents refusal to
accept ALT M. Landon's challenge
that Roosevelt issue a statement
saying he would not be a candidate
for third term. The other was
the White House explanation of
why Landon was invited to the neu-
trality conference at all.
Landon was invited, the White
House explained, because he was
the "titular head of the Republi-
can party, since he had been that
party's last candidate for President.
The explanation as to why Landon
and Frank Knox, Landon's running
mate in 1886, were invited came
as result of question by news
paper men as to why Herbert C..
Hoover was not invited. Coming,
as it did, on the heels of the talk
about politics being adjourned this
was more or less of a joke. When
a government seeks TO adjourn pol
ltics, of course, it always calls in
the heads of the opposition. So far,
so good, but Landon is not the head
OF the opposition to the New Deal,
and nobody knows it better than
Franklin D. Roosevelt himself.
When the war emergency came
in Britain, Prime Minister Cham
berlain called in Anthony Eden and
Winston Churchill. Why? Because
they had been the real leaders, in
the minds of the British people,
against the Chamberlain policies.
Actually irChamberlain did not call
them into the cabinet until after he
had abandoned the policy they had
opposed-appeasenrent. He did not
call them in until he was ready to
follow the policies that Churchill and
Eden had been Acknowledgements
rather than more appeasement.

Presidents calling in Senators Will
liam E. Borah, Gerald P. Nye and
Arthur II. Vandenberg to the neu-
trality conference.
There is another difference that
must be noted. Chamberlain gave
Eden and Churchill important posts
in the government. Roosevelt was
only asking Landon and Knox to a
secret conference. Further than
that, he attempted to circumscribe
the publicity which should be given
out about the conference.
Curiously enough. this so irritated
Landon that he did not 60 as far in
endorsing the Presidents side of the
neutrality controversy as he had in
tended to do before coming to Wash
ington AS a matter of fact the
statement he had intended to make
public on arriving in Washington,
but which Republican House Leader
Joe Martin persuaded him not to
give out, went all the way in en-
dorsing repeal of the arms embargo.
1t was this same irritation OF Lam
don which resulted in his subse-
quent call on Roosevelt to disayow
intentions for a third term, which
annoyed Roosevelt more, incidental
iy, than anything that has happened
for long time.
u. ). in European Conflict
You'd Boost Roosevelt
II Washington observers in both
parties are right in figuring that
the European war will last a long
time, and that eventually the United
States will get into it, the political
results inside this country are inn
ponderable. Best judgment is that
this situation would make the re-
nomination of Franklin D. Roose-
welt almost a certainty, with the
strong probability that he would be
reelected.
II there is any political lesson to
be learned by the course which the
American people followed in the last
war, enthusiasm for the war party
comes first, and resentment for get
ting us into it lags behind. No one
at the time doubted the vast ma
jority OF the people were behind
Woodrow Wilson through 1917 and

a Democratic congress. Individual
reports from congressional districts

Now we have Vandenberg and his
chief opponent, Sen Robert A. Taft
of Ohio, in opposite camps on the
neutrality issue, with the obvious
probability that they will continue
on opposite sides of every question
which comes up affecting the war.
If Vandenberg were no older than
Dewey this might be an ideal stu
alton for the Michigan aspirant.
He could let Taft take the 1910 NOM
nation away from him, be beaten
by Roosevelt, and then sweep into
office, as Harding did, after the in
evitable reaction has come. In this
case, in 1914.
Not that Vandenberg will be too
old IN 1914. He will be only go. But
at his present age that seems a
long time to wait. Also, he is in
danger of becoming shopworn. BY
1874 he will have been talked about
and rejected as the presidential
nominee ever since most of the
younger delegates can remember.
More important, he will have been
casting votes in the senate-assun-
ing he is reelected next time (for
otnerWlse he would be relegated to
the has-been class and not consid-
cred at alD-every one OF which will
be potential danger to his chances.
Lifting All Sugar Quotas
a Constructive Action
unquestionably the most construc-
tive action taken by the administra-
ton against the probabilities in
siders In the government see the
picture-of long war was the ac-
ton of President Roosevelt in lift
ing all sugar quotas.
In September, 1919, nearly a year
after the Armistice, the prevailing
retail price of sugar in the United
States was Is cents pound. There
were some instances of 30 cents
being charged, but Is cents was gen.
eral. During the war itself regu-
lation held down the price to II
cents, but there was an acute short
age, sugar was rationed, and people
who had their meals at restaurants
were given tiny individual portions
instead of being offered the DID,,
fashioned bowl.
Whereas just recently, before the
war became certainty, sugar was
sold at chain stores for 10 pounds
for As cents! And would have been
cheaper had it not been for the
quota system.
1t is fair to admit at this point
that Az cents pound for sugar is
lower than it should be, if those who
produce it are to be adequately COM.
pensated. Sugar is the one and
practically only article of general
consumption which has not doubled
IN price in the last IS years.
There is no objection on the part
OF the government to sugar pro-
ducers making living. In fact it
is the policy to encourage a mild
rise IN sugar prices. But not as sky
rocketing, such as occurred after
the removal of the World war re-
strictions, and not a shortage.

Sharp Rise in Price. Held
Down by Presidents Move

The world is producing more sug-
ar, or more accurately, has po-
tential sugar production much great
er now than in the World war DAYS.
1t was only in 1929 that Henry L.
Stimson, fresh from the governor
ship of the Philippines, told con-
gressional committee that it would
be impossible for the islands to pro-
duce more than 100000 tons of sugar
a year. The Philippines within a
couple of years after that pushed
their production to more than ,000,-
900 tons.
But now every sugar producing
area that supplies the United States
is restricted by a quota. This goes
for the Philippines, for Porto Rico,
for Hawaii, for the Louisiana and
Florida cane growing sections, and
for the beet sugar states.
Removal of the quotas permitted
Cuba to ship into the United States
all the sugar it could sell, thus
holding down what might have been
sharp rise Immediately in the
price American housewives had to
pay. But the more important phase
OF the situation applies to next year,
and the years to follow, and tends
to prevent sugar shortage, which
would affect every individual In the
country.
