the President for a third term, If
they can.
The third-term riddle, therefore,
comes back to the President himself
or to the measure of success which
the "drafters" achieve in their now
well-defined and definite campaign
or to both. Men who have talked
with the President and are in a posi-
ton to know what they are saying
insist that the President does not
want a third-term nomination. If
they are correct-and there seems
no good reason to doubt the correct
ness of their statements-it all
comes down to the questions Of
whether the draft" will materialize
and whether the President will ac-
cede to the demand of the drafters.
Hull and Jackson.
Since the days last year when IN
terror Secretary Harold L. Ickes and
Senator Guffey of Pennsylvania
were almost the sole outspoken ad-
vocates of a third term for Mr..
Roosevelt the movement has gained
much headway. 1t is obvious that
the President could effectually check
the movement. But he has done
nothing about it, nothing publicly at
all events.
There have been insisteht reports
that he would welcome a ticket
headed by Secretary Cordell Hull of

Robert H. Jackson of New York, as
his running mate. Such advocacy
Of the nomination of Hull and Jack

the part of the President to choke

In . Position to End 1t.
The President is in a position to
let the draft movement continue
indefinitely or he can put an end
to 1t. In some quarters it is sug-
! gested that he might even like to
have the opportunity of declining a
third term nomination-and stating
his position. But that scarcely seems
probable. 1t is inconceivable that
the President would place his party
in such a position.
