THE PRESIDENT
RECEIVERS NICELY

Sometimes President Roosevelt, along
with a few thousand other Americans,
probably wishes me FIRST Lady, his wife,
would devote her entire attention 10 he
ing the gracious White House hostess
she can undoubtedly be.
Had she done 50 last week. President
Roosevelt would not have been placed III
a very embarrassing poSltion-onc from
which he recovered Very nicely. how
ever
There isn't much doubt in anybody's
mind any morc that the American Youth
Congress is pretty thoroughly shot with
Communist beliefs led entirely by Com
munist leaders, and devoted chiefly To
furtherng Russian propaganda in this
country Mrs Roosevelt, unfortunately,
is one of the few who is either not Yet
convinced. or doesn't care
The upshot OF it all was that Mrs.
Roosevelt occupied very prominent
place in the convention hail when the
American Youth Congress convened in
Washington-and so was present when
the pink cheeked-and pink theoried-
youths summarily elected a less radical
member who unwisely introduced reso-
luton condemning Russia for its inva-
sion of Finland. Not only was the poor
lad not allowed to talk. bat he was
thrown out on his ear when he tried 10
voice displeasure with Russia.
Thus far Mrs. Roosevelt has not crit
icized the action Of the Youth Congress
even though it violated the free speech
she sometimes appears to champion so
stoutly.
Is it any wonder the President was
embarrassed?
Every American Will applaud the
words he used. when he got his own
chance next day to address the youth
congress The Scathlng denunciatlon Of
Russia he delivered delegates to the
Youth Congress convention. the biting
advice 10 the young men and women to
learn what they are doing before they
do it, and the implied statement TO them
that they are supplied with an astound-
ing lack Of common sense, should meet
with nothing but approval hy the aver

II sounds like a Gag.' but the

That works out Ike this: The

leau's reporting service. European
meteorological stations are no longcr

sending reports because they're
afraid submarines will spot their

Most important of all, Canadian

WASHINGTON. Feb. L. up
Republicans in hundreds of Lincoln
day meetings joined today in at
taCkS on the New Deal.
The celebration coincifics with Il
renewed campaign by Democratic
conservatives to smoke out PrCSi-
dent Roosevelt on the question OF Il
third term.
Supporters OF Vice President john
n. Garner are firing the third term
smudge. But despite pressure from
Garner, neither Sen. Burton K.
Wheeler, D. Mont. nor Postmaster
General James A. Farley has con-
Scntcd to announce for president
regardless of MI RooSCvclt'S plans.
GarncritCs aro insisting, however.
that they will be able to force MI.
Roosevelt to reveal his plans
Farley, who generally is counted
against d third term, has made no
public statement on the question.
But this weekend he gave pcrmis-
sion for his name to be entered in
the April 80 Massachusetts prcsiden-
tial primary.
Garner men welcomed the move
although it fell short of the hoped
for direct challenge to MI. Roosevelt
Some of Farley's associates, how
ever. arc confident he would actively
oppose the denomination OF Mr.
Roosevelt although he. himself.
would not seek the nomination Ii
the president tried again.
In that event, Farley DELEGATES
and he expects to control NOR" OF
