Willkie Supporters Will Woo
All DisgruntIed Democrats

From the Willkie camp, observers
cannot fail to note how plans are be-
ing made to give haven to dissat-
isfed Democrats. Moreover, those
same plans take into account the
need for political home for that
portion of the farm and labor vote
which has desire to find new affili-
ations. 1t is very clear that the
Roosevelt farm program has not
won complete endorsement, and the
Republicans have the feeling, too,
that the actions of the National La
Dor Relations board which surely
has been influenced by John L. Lew
is and his c. I. o. have not helped
the New Deal team with William
Green's A. F. of l..
There have been so many COM
plants from business men, great
and small. about the bungling and
the waste in Washington that Mr..
Willkie can be expected to hold most
Of that vote. He can be expected
also to have whatever influence that
segment of national life has in per-
suading workers to turn to the Re-
publicans.
And with respect to the third term,
already guns have begun to bark
out their missiles Of criticism Of the
Roosevelt draft by the Chicago
convention. They are saying thus
early that the draft" was no draft
at all: that Mr.. Roosevelt carefully
planned the machinery by which he
would be drafted" and that his re-
lease of the delegates on the eve of
the convention voting was a gesture
so painfully sour that it serves as
proof of the Presidents lack of ca
pacity as a politician. They are
charging also that Postmaster Gen.
eral Farley knew there was no draft
movement, except that which the
President prompted, and that is why
he is fading out Of politics and be-
coming a baseball club president.
In any manner that you look on
the advancing campaign, therefore,
it becomes increasingly evident that
Mr.. Roosevelt is taking the last step
Of movement begun four or FIVE
years ago. He is leading campaign
that wiz force a conclusion by the
voters themselves next November.
At that time. they will have to de-
eide whether they prefer this nation
to return to charted course of ma
tional administration, or whether
they want to continue into the new
fields and new methods of national
government that have formed the
keystone Of the New Deal

one phase of that realignment for

fail to regain control Of the party
and they were beaten down in the
Chicago convention by the wel-oiled
New Deal factions machine-the

save to the Republican side. Some
of them, like Vice President Gar
ner, who was so completely ignored
that his name hardly was mentioned
at Chicago, doubtless win go a-fish-

Consistently beautiful and beauti.
fully consistent is the revelation Of
God, whether it be in the glory of
His works, in the perfection of His
Word, or in His gracious dealings
with man. The spiritually minded
man sees God in all of His works
whereas the blind materialist sees
only matter and natural laws which
he may use or abuse. He makes
of Gods creation things for his own
comfort or for the destruction Of
his fellow men, not recognizing ''the
Creator, who is blessed forever"
This is a serious matter, for in so
doing the unbeliever has changed
the truth of God into a lie' Tread

Those who do not hear or heed
these voices, whether their ears
"are stopped with the clay of earth

scribed by Paul as having their fool
ish heart darkened: Protesting
themselves to be wise, they became
fools" (Rom. 1:21, 22).
Nature gives only a limited rev.

II. Gods Perfection Revealed in
His Word wv. lid.
Nowhere in the book of nature Is
it written that God is Redeemer,
a cleanser from sin, a restorer Of
the soul. That truth is found only
in His Word-the Bible. What folly
then for sinful men who need re-
demption to see God only in nature,
but never look into His Word or go
to church that they may hear His
truth proclaimed. The final and
perfect revelation Of God is in His
Son, Jesus Christ. the Redeemer.

saw the perfection of God revealed
in His law. We are privileged TO

Relief ard Farm Vote
Should Go to Roosevelt

On the other hand, Mr.. Roosevelt
will gain some votes from the other
side. He will get large percent
age of the relief votes again, as he
did in 1886, and he will have per-
haps as much as 40 per cent of the
farm vote, or that is the guess of
men who know political thought in
agricultural areas.
The Presidents foreign policies
have proved attractive to certain
elements in this country. and obvi-
ously they are going to stick with
the man who has helped their IA
therlands.
From these three angles-the re-
lief, the farm and the foreign vote
we see a regrouping along new lines.
The relief and the farm votes may
be said to have been held by the
President before, but that is not
quite an accurate statement. The
realignment in these two cases, APP
pears to be something of a settling
down process.
