LOOKING FORWARD
BY FRANKLIN MAILMAN
Publicity Director, Republican National Committee

Hee-haw Hee-haw! The Democrats
are making a determined drive for the
mule vote of America!
Never one to overlook a single be-.
especially when the going becomes
hard, Democratic National Chairman
James A. Farley led off this campaign
some days ago while laying the corner
stone of a new Federal building at
Columbia, Tennessee.
Indeed, jim Farley became both
idyllic and poetical over mules. Ten
nesseeans rubbed their eyes in amaze
ment as jim Farley's mellifous voice
eulogized the humble beast of burden
as though he were greasing up an
audience about to go to the polls. in
measured cadences, the Democratic
chieftain's voice ran on-and on-and
on-about mules.
This patient beast of burden
that "loyal animal down through the
years has furnished power to furow
the fields, to transport to market the
products Of factory and farm"-an
indispensable part Of the motive
power of the army"-the "humble.
staIwart, dependable American mule"
were the phrases which poured from
the Farley lips.
Farley Halls Mules AS Pioneers
The mule, he went on, symoblized
the "vital spirit of the pioneer" The
American mule lis a sturdy toiler who
gives an honest days work for an hon-
est days hay jim Farley calculated
with great fervor and then added:
"That is enough for me-"
Farley undertook to give the I'M
preston that the greatest regret Of
his life was that he had not had a
more intimate acquaintance with
mules-undoubtedly he meant the
four-legged variety.
He explained that in his lonely
moments Southern friends recounted
to him "the days when from daylight
to shutdown they used to walk in Old
Beck's footsteps down the cotton
rows" They tell, Jim went on, chow
the dew sparkIed like diamonds on the
cotton squares, how they filled their
straw hats with cool hickory leaves
against the midday sun, and how the
sweetest sound they ever heard, or
ever hoped to hear, was good Old
Beck's hee-haw in the golden dusk
that meant both to him and the mule
take out"
Isn't This Beautiful?
Then, with deep sigh over oppor-
tunities lost, Farley added:
unfortunately that is an exper-
fence which life has denied me. In
my youth, I never had the benison
(sic) of such close companionship

COMMISSIONERS MEETING

NOTICE is HEREBY GIVEN That
the Board of County Commissioners
for Garrett County, Maryland, will be
in session for the transaction of all
routine business that may properly
come before them on
MONDAY AND TUESDAY, MAY 6
AND 7, 1910.

and 1886, but Enthusiastically turned in
1898, when the Republicans nearly
doubled their membership in the
House, recaptured the Governorships
of eleven big States and about 5000
courthouses.
The primaries and by-elections of
1910 have been the only means since of
ascertaining whether the tide was still
running. Without rehashing the fig
ures, the facts are that in all these
States where elections have occurred
New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Ohio,
Illinois, Nebraska and Pennsylvania
the Republican vote has shown a great
increase compared to 1936-and a
moderate increase over 1888. On the
other hand, the Democratic vote has
been diminished in every straight
out test between Republicans and
Democrats, such, for example, in the
Nebraska by-election two weeks ago,
the Republican has won. In none of
the five or six elections to fill House
vacancies has a Democrat captured a
Republican seat or shown anincreased
vote.
In the Illinois primaries Mr.. Roose-
welt ran some 100000 votes behind his
1886 total, when he was unopposed,
and in Nebraska he ran behind the
Senatorial candidates. Comment upon
that has been generally made, but the
| Pennsylvania returns are even more
striking. In that State the Republi-
cans, in about 1000 of the 5000 pre-
cincts, polled total vote in the Sena-
torial primaries of 100000, while the
| Democrats in the same precincts polled
100000, or approximately 100000 less.
Mr. Roosevelt, with his name on the
ballot, no opposition, and Endorsed
for a third term by all three of the
Democratic Senatorial aspirants,
/ polled All 900 votes, or 3l3,OUO fewer
than the Democratic Senatorial as
pirants.
1t will be agreed that on the face of
/ these returns the Republican belief
that Pennsylvania is all set to return
to it's Republican moorings next No
vember seems fully justified. And,
when the Pennsylvania figures are
considered on top of the Illinois, New
Hampshire, Wisconsin and Nebraska
figures, there seems sound ground
for believing not only that the con-
sentative trend of 1888 continues, but
that Mr.. Roosevelt's amazing vote
getting ability is not what it was. In
other words, it was the tide rather
than the man or the issues that ac-
counted for the extraordinary sweep
of 1882, 1884 and 1886.
In 1880 it turned against the Repub-
licans, who had been in power twelve

Political Tides

Washington, April 81.
Unfattering as it may be to the
great bulk of American voters, eXper-
fenced political observers know that
national elections in this country are
more generally determined by tides Of
public sentiment than by particular
issues, appealing personalities or local
consideration. If the tide is running
in one direction, neither the charm O.
the candidate nor the soundness Of the
argument will avail against it.
##*
This has been proven so otter that
among the more acute politicians it is
considered almost automatic. 1t is the
reason the voters in the primary cleo
tons in various parts of the country,
which began in March and will con-
tinue until the end of May, are so
closely examined, analysed and inter-
preted for signs of the tide. The most
recent Of these was the Pennsylvania
primary last Tuesday. Figures there
were strongly confrmatory of those
held in New Hampshire, Wisconsin, IL
linois and Nebraska.
1m#
Beyond question, they are more
comforting to the Republicans than
to the Democrats Publicity, of course,
spokesman for the latter deny this,
but privately they admit it. Actually,
the figures leave little room for ar
gument. If they mean anything, they
mean that the tide that so unmistaka-
bly, turned in 1888 is still running in
the same direction. If it were not it
would be very surprising. Political his
tory shows that national tides Of SEN
tlment do not change quickly, but
gradually and finally turn in the other
direction, only to repeat the perform
ance.
###
When these tides Enthusiastically turn
III one election, after peflod OF run
ming in one direction, there is no rec
ord of their switching back in the next
election. The rule is that they run
until they wear themselves out. The
Democratic tide which swept Mr.
Roosevelt into power really began in
1930-not 1932-when the Democrats
gained control of the House, while Mr.
Hoover was still President. It stead
lily increased in strength in 1882, 1884

LLOYD GEORGE TO. |BE CALLED BACK.
Veteran Statesman Would Be Enlisted as Adviser
 Should Cabinet Change

London, Jan. i7-(UP)-David Lloyd George, who has had Q poli- tlcal role In two of Brltalns wars, may be given Q voice in the conduct of Q third war, 1t was reported to- day on his 77th birthday.
 should Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain quit, 1t was saidI Lloyd George might be sought out for the unofficial role of "elder statesmen" and adviser, whose inspiring record in the World War could help ani- mate the country's war effort again,
 This would be expected to be the case especially if Lloyd Georges old World War crony, Winston Church. Ill, became prime minister.
 The fiery little Welshman with the flowing white mane already hos seen the allies profit in this war by the victories he won over poli- tioians, generals and admirals in conducting the World War, during which he was prime minister.
 It was he who insisted on the ap- pointment of Q genoraliSsimo for the allied armies la the World War; on c convoy system to combat Qer- many's submarine warfare: On army conscription; e small wieldy war cabinet, oil of which have been adopted ct the outset of this war. It was Lloyd George who opposed the Great British offensives of 1917, which cost the lives Of hun- dreds Of thousands of British sole diers In futile assaults, and this at. titude now Is reflected in the lack of inclination to assault the Ger. man west wan.
 Today was Lloyd 0eorge's birth day, He was out looking over his farm at Churt, making sure that the cabbages and pigs were all right. They are his contribution to the nations food supply.
 Ho said this war was going to be Q "long business" probably longer than tho World War. He thinks he B doing his bit by producing food and one Of his many approaches against tho present government Is that it Is falling to encourage dom- estio food production to meet the threat of 0 blockade,

PATROLMAN HAD
 RADIO TURNED ON

Millburn. N. J., Jan. l7,-tUP)- Something went out over the air waves at a. m, on the night of Dec, 14 that was never intended to be broadcast and because of 1t, depart mental charges have been filed against Police Patrolman Philip G. Herman who at that hour is alleged to have been entertaining young woman in his two-way radio car.
 Herman, according to the charges didn't know that his radio trans hitter switch was on, and that two startled desk men on duty at head- quarters, 10 radio patrolmen on their beats, and anybody else who hap pened to have their radios tuned to that short wave length at that hour of night were hearing strictly pri- vate conversation.
 Nobody concerned would say what conversation the radio picked up. Police Chief Norbert Wade, a stick Ter for regulations, deduced this much about the woman:
 "She was one who neither re- dvired information, was neither aged nor infirm, blind, taken sud- denly i'll, injured. or otherwise tenn r1orafiiy unable to take care of her. self"
 If she had been any of those things she might have had some business in Pierman's car.
 sThe broadcast Chief Wade con- finued, was not in line of duty, or relating to public police or safety matters"
 sNor," he added. twas the broad east required by any rule or police urdinance."
 pierman said he was surprised. Kze hadn't seen the charges and had nothing to say about them.
