Doubt II Hull Aspires.

Despite Representative Sol Bloom S
soft Impeachment that the Secre-
! tary of States communique of self
denial is the best statement" an
actual presidential candidate could
make. Hull is believed to be 100
per cent honest in saying he doesn't
want to run for President. After all,
he would be close to 10 if inaugu-
rated in January, 194l. 1t may well
strike a man of his conscientious
sense of proportion and public serv-
ice that those lean and slippered
years are a few too many in such
times as these for a chief magistrate
OF a country which by statute re-
tires its Army, Navy and civilian
servants at "a. and not long ago

rooftop that no man past 60 ought
really to sit on the Federal bench.
Hull in recent years has had to
take solicitous care of himself physi-
caliy, phase of his life to which
Mrs. Hull devotes unremitting guar
dianship. Though his Office carries
with it pre-eminent social rank and
obligations. the Hulls have con-
spicuously refrained from everything

ment. They live modestly in a
hotel and attend a minimum of
functions, though both the Tennes-
sean and his handsome consort pos
sess the social graces in high degree.
Some OF their friends are convinced
they have long looked forward with
relief to liberation a year hence
from the exhaustive requirements
1nseparable from the chiefship of
the State Department. That Judge
Hull himself would happily embark
upon the hurly burly Of a prcsi-

CrOmwelrs First Job in Canada.
1t looks as if young Jimmie Crom-
we'll. new Minister to Ottawa, and
his tobacco-heiress wife, the former
Doris Duke, would have as their
first diplomatic job in Canada the
task OF inducing the Dominion to
permit the Dionne quintuplets to
become No. attraction at the 1910
New York Worlds Fair. The Whalen
management is looking for some
thing to equal or outshine last
years great Soviet Russian pavilion,
topped by the Red worker holding

that Canada's famous five little
girls would fill the bill. The fair is
ready to reproduce their home in
Ontario for the quints on the site
of the Soviet building, which is
now being razed. Hitherto the
Canadian authorities have frowned
on the idea of farming out the
Dionne young ladies.

1t is the incorrigible refusal OF
agriculture to sanction any conces-
sions to competitive Argentine and
Uruguayan produce. especially cat
tie, meats and cereals, that makes
it impossible for Hull to offer Ruenos
Aires and Montevideo reciprocal
tariff favors for those we lpught
in their markets for our industrial
products. Farm politicians in both
parties have long had their axes
out for various phases Of the Hull
scheme. Senator Capper, Repub-
lican, of Kansas, Is vociferous and
relentless foe, while Senator Tom
Connally, Democrat, of Texas, sees
red at any hint OF letting down
the bars to South American cattle

 Most impressive ball carrier of the group was Al Ghesquiere of De- troit University who gained 617 yards on 87 attempts. Tony Gallo- vich of Wake Forest, in second place place, gained 585 yards in 86 tries.
 Harmon also slipped from first to third in rushing with 580 yards and was followed by Jim Lalanne of North Carolina, whose 84 attempts netted 497 yards and Bob Westfall Michigan, who gained 491 yards.
 Princeton's Dave Allerdice led the passers again with 51 completions pa1N1 teA. AH pleted 39 passes for the top ground gaining total of I'll yards. Mo- Cullough turned in the best aver age, 3l competitors in A attempts.
