RUNNING A GOOD SECOND

Runners-up for the Presidential candidates. OF
their respective parties in most of the various polls
and Senator Arthur Vandenburg (behind Tom
Dewey. This has been the lineup almost since
election talk started early last year According to
the polls, Garner and Vandenburg are both well
behind their party leaders, but they have shown too
much strength to be dismissed on this account.
Mr.. Gamers campaign is well under way. His
managers are fighting for delegates in New York,
California and several other states. With traditional
political wisdom, they are not seeking support in
those which expected to have "favorite sons" at
the convention, such as Paul McNutts Indiana and
Cordell Hull's Tennessee Idea is not to antagonze
any weaker candidates who might be persuaded to
support Garner after few ballots at the convention
Of course the Garner forces realize they haven't
chance if President Roosevelt decides to try for
third term. They had hoped to eliminate this posi-
bty by starting early to rally support for the Vice
President, but they not so hopeful. They
fear that the President, even it he does not run
again, will be able to influence enough convention
votes to beat them. So they trying to build up
Mr.. Garner as a strong supporter of the New Deal
which he actually has been many occasions
Senator Vandenburg's chances for the Republican
nomination have become much brighter. The cand-
dacy of Publisher Frank Gannett seems likely to split
the powerful New York delegation, thus depriving
Tom Dewey of the vital support of his home State
Further, Deweys speech-malng tour has fallen flat
He has failed to any excitement and in fact
has stirred little interest even in his own party.
Senator Vandeburg is blessed with the uncanny
ability to sound out public sentiment better than any
man. with the possible exception of Franklin ROose-
welt. He of the first Republicans to declare
that he agreed with the principle of many New Deal
policies but thought they should be changed as to
administration. His action in the Senate when the
entire country angry with Japan forced the Gov
eminent to break off our trade treaty with that
nation But now, with popular sentiment swinging
again toward isolation he has blocked moves to boy
colt japanese goods.

itical students that Mr.. Lewis can
not pull the entire labor vote, or
even a strong majority of 1t, for
anybody. personally have believed
for long time that political cater
ing to the Tabor vote" was simply
catering to a myth.
But there have been other things
happening along the Democratic

pot boiled over. We were treated,
In each instance, to some Of the
usual political bunk.
Senator Pepper. who frequently
announces his Importance as a
Democratic leader in his native
state Of Florida, came into Washing
ton and announced that the Florida
delegation to the Democratic ma

Roosevelt for a third term. That
sounded all right. Closer investiga-

that Senator Pepper was talking

RELAY

Old station, standing by the track,
Dark walls so gray with CRIME,
You send my memories winging
back
Along the miles of time.
Spring fishermen come out again
To line the river shore,
And daily here the old six-ten
Moves on to Baltimore.
Each Fourth of July finds a day
Of picnics in the park,
While in the evening, rockets spray
Their stars against the dark.
Here brightly burns the station
lamps,
Commuters talk and laugh.
Here sounds the agents rubber
stamps,
The clicking telegraph.
The hum Of voices fill the air,
While swiftly goes the day,
And every train puts off ''fare",
Before it rolls away.
Old station, brooding by the way
Of battles nobly fought ;,
How many trains flash by today
And never give you thought?

ALONG THE ROAD
By
JOHN RANDOLPH STIDMAN

Russell Hill, Berlin correspond
ent of the Columbia Broadcasting
Company, has announced to the
listeners that the German Govern
ment has instituted "hot-water
day.. Now if they could just get
their beloved leader to take bath
in boiling oil, the whole world
would rejoice.
An Associated Press despatch of
foreign news makes use of the fol-
lowing names: Sukru Saracoglu OF
Turkey, Alexander Cincar Mar
kovic of Yugoslavia, John Metaxas
of Greece and Grigore Gafencu OF
Rumania. Believe it or not, this
lineup reminds me of the Notre
Dame football team, the fighting
Irish.
William F. Broening, twice May
or Of Baltimore, listened to twenty
four speeches from members of a
committee, urging him to run for
the Senate. He answered these
appeals in a short talk and added
"I've got to stop now. If GO
any further I'll say eyes" and ]
need more time to consider" One
more speech and Bill would have
believed that he was that good
himself.
The Wistar Institute of Philadel-
phia issues a regulation form
which and scientific minded per-
son can sign. The wording is: 81
bequeath my brain to the Wistal
Institute" They have large col
lection of brains preserved in alco-
hol for the purpose of research
work. Quite a number of the hui
man specie have their brains pre-
served in alcohol long before they
depart this life.

and it ca.

nation Is cor =, and it ca.
a trustworthy source, the facts are
that every move to direct the Flor
ida vote towards Mr.. Roosevelt was
badly licked. Indeed, the word that
came to me from Florida was that
Senator Pepper was spanked by his
home folks. He tried to steer the
Roosevelt ship and had the rudder
taken out Of his hands by the state
convention by the rather lopsided
vote Of u to 81. And the impor-
tant, yet unpublished, phase of the
meeting was that the boys who
welded the paddle upon the loqua-
cious Senator Pepper are known to
be for Mr.. Garner.
In Ohio, State Chairman Arthur
Linback apparently tried to do the
same thing as Senator Pepper did
in Florida. He made a lot Of an
nouncements about where the Ohio
delegation would 60. Again, upon
my own information, the Ohio dele
cation appears likely to go in a diff
ferent direction from any Of those
pointed out by the state chairman.

QUEER

Cave men never laughed or cried,
Just lived in aches and pains.
Their wit and humor must have
been all wet.
Fossilized and petrified,
We dig up their remains,
And haven't found funny bone
yet.
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1940-02-08
Those Making Clan,or
Are Mostly on Payroll

Mr.. Linback obviously wants to
curry favor with the New Dealers.
But Ohio sources. political observ-
ers mainly, advise me that there is
small chance Of Mr.. Linback con-
trolling the delegation to the Demo-
cratic national convention. In the
first place, there has been no slate
Of delegates made up and the pri-
mary is quite a way in the future.
So. 1t Is made to appear that Mr..
Linback, like Senator Pepper. was
doing a bit Of popping off in the
hopes that he could start Q band
wagon movement. with him in the
drivers seat.
From Mississippi, some days ago,
there came word of an effort to get
resolution through the state legis-
lature that would have praised the
New Deal administration and New
Deal policies. 1t fell fat.
These states that I have men,
toned, however, give some indica-
ton Of the scope Of the drive by
the New Dealers. Obviously, they
want Mr.. Roosevelt renominated
and reelected. for in that direction
lies their political future. They are
unlikely to get anywhere. to hold
their jobs. unless Mr.. Roosevelt
leads. doubt that Paul McNutt
would keep the bulk OF them in office
If he were to be elected. It Is abso-
lutely certain that Mr.. Garner would
get rid Of them.
Another thing: the last few weeks
has shown the same group in the
van of the demand for a Roose-
welt third term. Men like Secreta-
ries Wallace and Ickes, Senator Cuff
fey Of Pennsylvania, Ambassador
Joseph P. Kennedy, Ambassador
Davies, are making the original pro-
nouncements. The lesser lights picls
up the song and sing it. 1t would be
interesting to know what the total
payroll Is Of the men now heading
the Roosevelt third-term drive.
But soon the lull will arrive. Sem
ator Wheeler's demand that Mr..
Roosevelt announce now whether he
is, or is not, going to seek a third
term will get exactly no further
than the front pages of newspapers.
The Peppers and the Linbacks will
have had their say and their pro-
nomcements will measure exactly
as much as a summer shower in
ultimate importance. 1t is all a
part Of politics. I believe I am 60.
