NEW WILLKIE STRATEGY
Wendell WilllSie already has in
troduced one major innovation in
Republican campaigning by subor-
dinating the regular party organiza-
ton to his new network of Willkie
clubs. But now his lieutenants are
considering another.
This is plan of "direct selling;
in other words, personal solicitation
or 'button-holing" to win votes for
Willkie
The plan was devised by Hugh
Stuart Center of San Jose, Calf,
former head of the states Associat-
ed Republican clubs and organizer
of the California Independents and
Democrats for Willkie. Here is how
the plan would work:
In each state, separate organiza-
tons would be set up in IL classical
tons: agriculture, real estate, pro-
duction, insurance, professional,
finance, education, merchandising,
transportation, hotel, personal serv-
ices, and religion. Each group would
finance it's own activities, thus light
ening the load of the regular cam
paign organizations and also not pill
ing up big totals in their official re-
ports.
Business men would be asked to
assign an energetic and personable
young man to devote his time to cir
culating among workmen in the
same business, and to selling them
the Importance to that business of
electing Willkie. Sponsors of the
plan claim three advantages for it:
l. ''No time is wasted in seeking
prospects. Each representative
meets them through the day, in the
apparent normal course of bust
ness"
2. "No sales resistance is encoun-
tered. The prospect does not real
ize he is being approached POLITICAL
ly. 1t is just a case of two or more
persons talking Shop
3. ''No time is wasted on cam
paign material that will not interest
the prospect, and the cost of the
work is carried by the representa-
tive's employer or firm, thus avoid
ing reportable expenditures

Keeping Your Linen

likes to keep things in sets iden-
titled with colored bands and
thinks it is more efficient to roll
many pieces than to fold them.
The best napkins may be banded
in blue and white, luncheon mats
may be rolled on a red stick with
a red band and green may be used
for the bridge table cloth. Linen
holders like these would make at
tractive gifts, too. And speaking
of shelves and drawers; girls
adore the stocking case in Book 3,
and the drawer pads in Book 4;
and they make dainty gifts for any
one. The table cloth case in Book
2 is another good linen closet
idea.
