Roosevelt is. In that field, Jackson outclasses A1cNutt. Jackson is the boy-hero of the New Deal crowd. They will tell you that he is Roose- velt's chosen. That is challenged in other quarters.
 How he will stack up m -ie.ds Tn which McNutt is most experienced is another question. An effort to push him into the New York gov- ernorship in 1888 was stopped dead pr Tesumably by the interference of James A. Farley. Reputedly Farley thinks neither McNutt nor Jackson is Presidential timber.
 So Jackson has not been tried as an elective executive. He has been tried out as a Federal official and has won his spurs. Even his worst friends concede he has done an able job as Solicitor General. That is second in command in the Department of Justice. Now he is head of the department as Attor- ney General.
 Either of these the lightning may strike, if it does not choose to strike itself into a third term.
