she had made an investment, but
that no interest had been paid.
81 have invested no sum OF any
kind anywhere" Mrs. Roosevelt
said, land I think I should also
say that none of my family has
profted by anything I have made" "
She explained the wages category
by saying she has employed certain
people for a number Of years on
the principle that it was better to
do that than to give money as char
ity to them. These were people,
she said, that she could get along
without.
Appeals for National Unity.
In an appeal for national unity
Mrs. Roosevelt read excerpts from a
letter which, she said, was dated at
1:3O am. November 5, before the
voting had started. 1t was from the
proprietress of a small laundry in
q Southwestern State, she said.
The woman, in her letter, said
that she hoped and prayed that the
EIESlOcl1U WOulQ NC 1C-ClCNGOds bNl
I'm bound as an American to say
that if the peoples vote gives
Wendell Willkie the Office, then we
owe him the loyalty that is due any
man upon whom we thrust such a
frightening responsibility"
Continuing in her own words,
Mrs. Roosevelt said:
What we really need to do is
when a decision is made, make up
our minds that we will try to solve
the problem with real cooperation
and not have the feeling that it's
hopeless; that we'll just look after
ourselves and not think Of what is
at stake for the whole people"
Sees Labor Rift Deep.
Speaking of a different type of
unity, Mrs. Roosevelt said in answer
to question that peace in the ranks
of labor is not just a question of
personalities at the top, but is a
fundamental thing.
I'm constantly finding new
things" she said, "that are basic
difficulties which will have to be
cleared up before there can be any
peace in the labor ranks"
She refused to elaborate on the
point.
Asked what she thought of the
food blockade, she said it seemed
terrible not to feed the hungry
children of France, but that war
is a terrible thing and that she did
not believe one could ask nations
fighting for their lives to take any
step which they feel are endangering
their chances for victory.
Mrs. Roosevelt said she planned
to leave Washington tomorrow for
New York and would leave there
Sunday for a lecture trip which she
arranged six months ago. She added
that she didn't know what topics she
would discuss but that The
Responsibility of the Individual to
the Community" and Problems OF
Youth" were the subjects selected
most frequently by those who asked
her to talk. The former lecture, she
said. she thought she could give in
her sleep, she had done it so often.

somewhat less in the House than in
the present session. With the out
come of one Senate race still in
doubt, the Republicans thus far had
registered a net gain Of three seats
for total of 81 as against 66 held
by Democrats in that chamber. A
possible victory in North Dakota
would raise the Republican total
to %.
In the House the Democrats had
net gain of five seats, with only
five contests still undecided. This
gave them a total of 1853 members,
compared with 218 necessary for a
majority The Republicans had
elected 1862 members and Progress
sives, 2, independent Democrats, l,
and American Labor, l.
Meanwhile, indications increased
that complete official returns on
1940's presidential election, count
ing in some million ballots usually
cast for minor party candidates,
would be around 100000, the
greatest in history. The record
meant that about 100000 new
voters had been added to the 1886
total.
To Mr.. Willkie, whose energetic
and unprecedented campaign en-
tailed almost 10000 miles of travel
ing, politicians generally attributed
much of the credit for getting out
the tremendous Republican vote
His success in this respect buttressed
his position as head of the party,
with great influence over its policies
of the next four years.
Exactly what part he would play
and what he thinks those policies
should be were subjects he was ex-
pected to discuss in a statement
within a few days.

Purty Control Shifted

THE THIRD TERM ISSUE

With Wendell Willkie endorsing practically
all of the New Deal, about the only thing left to
harp is the third term issue, which really
should be no issue at all. What sort of spell
that would unfit him? If the voters elect man
to the presidency, for the first term, it is democ-
racy; if they re-elect him for second term, it is
democracy; then why isn't it democracy to
choose him for third term? There is nothing in
the constitution forbdding it. George Washing
ton and Thomas Jefferson quoted by those
opposing Roosevelt on the third term issue.
Washington had no intention of founding third
term tradition, when he refused another nomina-
tio after his second term. His health was poor
and he 1onged to retire. The country was quiet.
There no grave perils at home or abroad so
he stepped down and out. Jefferson did oppose a
third term in general, but not under all circum-
stances. Remember Senator McNary vice presi-
dent nominee, along with Andrew Mellon, and
other leading Republicans favored third term
for Calvin Coolidge. This third term issue is
trunped up to overshadow the real issues-the
foreign policy which must be admitted has been
successfully handled. Roosevelt and his secretary
of state know the foreign situation better than
any other Americans. The cry of Communism
and other Isms hurled at the President some
months ago. has subsided. Those "Isms" are at
the lowest tide in the United States that they
have been for many years. In Ohio and many
other states the Communists have lost out SO
they are not even the tickets.
Compare conditions in this country with those
abroad; and compare conditions under the pres
ent administration with those of the previous one
BE tar, and we will have to admit that we have a
wise head at the head of our government He
has proven his worth, he has had the experience
would 1T be wise to put at the head of this gov
ernment man who has not had an hours exper-
1ence in public service?-a man who by his own
statements and his campaign errors have been a
constant source of annoyance to those who are
managing his campaign?

A DEMOPUBLICAN?

Mr.. Wendell Willkie says that
further along in the campaign he is
going to show up the tie between
the Roosevelt administration and
the corrupt city political machines.
Is Mr. Willkie going to show up
the tie between Mr.. Willkie and the
McKay-Barnard political machine in
Michigan?
Is he going to point with pride to
the well-known and much comment
ed on fact that if it had not been
for the McKay-Barnard machine in
Michigan, Mr.. Willkie would never
have been nominated for the presi-
dency?
Is he going to point to the fact
that the Mckay Barnard machine
double-crossed Senator Taft of Ohio
to whom Senator Vandenberg had
pledged his votes and il Vandenberg
ceased to be candidate in the Phil
adelphia convention?
Is Mr.. Willkie going to say that
he isn't depending on the Mckay
Barnard political machine to deliver
the electoral vote of Michigan to
him?
We rather guess not. Mr.. Willkie
isn't going to say any of those
things He is going to keep awful
ly still about his tie-ups with the
big political machines OF the Repub-
