WASHINGTON, July 9-R)
President Roosevelt, while re-
serving the right to dabble an
experienced finger in politics in
his own state, was reported to-
day TO have resisted firmly eff
forts of numerous politicians to
get him to take sides in feuds
elsewhere.
He himself has remarked that
this is war and politics are out.
And one individual with access
to accurate information assert
ed that the President had lived
up to that declaration so far, al
though he has had many a bid
for political assistance fro m
members of Congress who feel
uneasy over their chances Tor
reelection in November A Pres
idential pat on the back con-
ceivably could make a consider
able difference in their fortunes.

Persons closely associated with
the Chief Executive, who prefer
to remain anonymous, say they
are convinced there will be no
1912 version of the 1898 purge, "
in which the President cam
paigned against Democrats he
considered too conservative.
This year, of course, there
could be only one major issue

foreign policy And since Pearl
Harbor there have been few leg
islators who have raised their
voices against that policy.
The present intentions of the
President apparently is to take
no active part in any campaign
to unseat pre-Pearl Harbor isola-
tionists-again with possible
exception in New York State,
where he maintains his perma-
nent voting residence.
Mr.. Roosevelt has taken pub
lie notice only once of the isola-
zionist issue. That was last Feb
ruary when he told press con-
ference that when the country is
at war, we want congressman,
regardless of party, who would
back up the government of the
United States and who have a
record of backing it up in an
emergency.

They have little to worry

of these Democrats are from

AS for the House, Flynn twice
has predicted after conferences
with the Chief Executive that
the party would gain seats this
year.
The one pre-war critic of for

likely to encounter Presidential
opposition is Rep. Hamilton Fish

Navy Seeks
Binoculars
Appeal is Made
to Residents

The United States Navy has
appealed directly to the people
of our city for the loan of bino-
culars meeting Navy require
ments for the duration of the
war.
In four and a half months only
1854 sets of these instruments
have been received from all over
the country. This number is but
fraction of what the Navy
needs.
Binoculars are necessity on
the fighting ships of our Navy.
Lookouts use them to keep a
constant vigil for enemy ships,
planes and submarines. The lives
of our sailors, marines, and
transports of soldiers depend on
them.
Two types of instruments are
accepted by the Navy. They are

sizes 6x30 or 7X50. If you have
a pair of these, tag them with

them carefully and send them

turned after the war, if possible.

At this point, woman, one of the

host and which he ate with moody satisfaction.
After his fourth plate of beans, and fifth
glass of champagne, man with a red nose
and watery eyes found courage enough to say:
You ever try eating turkey, Colonel?
There's dish for you, turkey. Goes well with
beans, too"
The Colonel regarded him coldly.
Il never eat anything but what I'm eating

present had no trouble in identifying as a
counterfeit, and with an expansive gesture
handed il to one Of the walters, saying, have
them take il out OF that"
So depressing was the effect Of his be-
havor that most of the company took its de-
parture Immediately on leaving the table. The
others, who had drunk more champagne. would

They told practically the same story as the
first man, and while they were still talking,
the elevator discharged a third load These
were in charge of the Colonel in person.
What's the matter? Why don't you go
inside?" he demanded. There will be a few
more along in a minute and then we can
start eating"
But, Colonel" objected his secretary,
what about your guests ?"
Have they come ?"
mo, but they'll be along in minute,
surely"
He gave her proud glance and then, with
a wave of the arm. taking in both the bob
tail crew and the bell boys, said These are
my guests! Come in everybody"
And in they went.
Just what delayed the originally invited
company is not known though a fair guess
can perhaps be made from the picture Of the
host which emerged from the testimony at the
trial
Financially powerful and very exacting. he
was whose invitations it might be UNI
wise to turn down. He was also a man with
whom one would scarcely elect to spend a
vivial Christmas Eve
So it is possible that the regular guests
unhappy in the prospect Of the party and. at
the same time, equally unhappy in the
thought Of giving him serious offense had
compromised on being late.
AS 1t was, they were too late.
When they finally arrived and the door
was opened to them an odd sight met their
