A cold shower is unknown. Heating
tanks are unnecessary. Water standing
in pipes must be run of before shower
to avoid scalding.
The hot wind of the desert gulf re-

gallons Of water daily. Americans have
adopted the native jugs which cool drink

With every drink men are required to
take one or two five-grain salt tablets to
preserve their saline balance against ex-
cessive loss of salt through perspiration.
Sweat-patches on clothing are always

WITH THE PERSIAN GULF SERV-
ICE COMMAND.-In one of the hottest
places in the world, the heats on in the
gulf region and Americans arming and
provisioning the Red Army through the
vital Iranian corridor can take it.
Despite temperatures such as none of
them ever experienced before, they are
keeping up the schedule of deliveries to
Soviet Russia over truck and rail routes
with a surprisingly low rate of heat
cases.
Here where the weathermen would
have no end of grim fun keeping hourly
temperature records, there is little scien-
tific recording yet but an ordinary ther-
mometer exposed in the afternoon
easily tops $50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Shaded, it hovers between l2o and 100
degrees.
Refrigeration is scarce, ice is precious
thing and there are no soft drinks. Ra-
toned beer gave out before the heat
really started.
Crude air conditioning in field hos
pitals-the only air conditioning avail
able-is considered successful when 1t
keeps the temperature below 100.

In the gulf and desert districts men

The best way to describe the heat Is
not with thermometer readings but with

these in Iran.
~ The same hospital. in a place claiming
the questionable distinction of being the
hottest spot in the world, soon will move
into air-conditioned buildings from half
sunken quonset huts and double-roofed
war tents.
Apart from hosing with water, these
structures are conditioned with fans and
desert coolers" screened frames loosely
packed with excelsior which is kept wet
continually from dripcans. Through
this the fans draw the outside air.
Fans have been virtually monopolized
by the hospitals.

Presidential nominations are year In
the future, but presidential candidates.
are in the making now. The surest bet
is that President Roosevelt will be the
nominee of the Democratic party. This
is true whether the war is still on-as it
is expected to be-or whether hostilities
have ceased. With the war still con-
tinuing, the demand will be for the
President to run again to carry on.
If by any chance the war shall have
been won, other reasons will be advanced
by many Democrats for the continuance
in office of Mr. Roosevelt. There will
be the great problems of world rehabili-
tation and peace. 1t will be argued that
he is pre-eminently qualified for those
tasks. Beyond that, Democrats in Office
who have been repeatedly elected along
with the President as the head of the
party ticket, will demand his renomina-
ton. Many of them will feel that their
best chances of success in 1914 are with
Mr. Roosevelt.
On the Republican side Of the fence
there has been no cryStalization of senti-
mentor even partial crystalization.
There are plenty of possibilities" and
some of them are actual candidates even
if they have not said the formal word
Wendell L. Wllkie the party standard
bearer in 1910, is one of these unan-
nounced candidates, and so is Gov John
w. Bricker of Ohio The Governor of
New York, Thomas E. Dewey, has en-
phatically declared he is not candi-
date. But to deny that he Is posi-
bility" would be to ignore very con-
siderable sentiment throughout the
country in favor of his nomination.
Senator Vandenberg of Michigan. like
Gov. Dewey, has declared himself out
of the race for the nomination. So has
Senator Taft of Ohio, who is backing
Gov. Bricker. Former Gov. Stassen of
Minnesota is in the Navy. Gen. Douglas
Macarthur is commanding the United
Nations forces in the South Pacific. No
one knows yet what the political wheel
of fortune holds in store for them, how
ever.
Situation Like 1899.
Just as in 1899, President Roosevelt's
pre- -eminence among the leaders of the
Democratic party so overshadows all
others that no other Democratic presi-
Dental candidate has emerged or Is
likely to emerge in large proportion
This will remain the case until the
President himself gives the nod or says
he will not run for a fourth term.
Authoritarian Democrats-which is
another way of saying anti-New Deal
Democrats-are vociferous in their pro-
tests against the denomination of the
Fresident-in private Few have spoken
publicly what they think They insist
that it is too early to talk presidential
poltics-that their one thought is win
ming the war. This has not prevent
ed a discussion of methods by which a
fourth-term nomination may be blocked
Or at least be made so unpalitabe as
to discourage its acceptance by the
President
AS of today the strategy of the anti
Roosevelt Democrats will be to send as
many delegates to the 1914 Democratic
National Convention as possible pledged
to other candidates. It is the essence of a
stop Roosevelt" movement. If some of
the leaders have their way, no one man
will be put before the convention as the
opponent of the President. On the con-

Roosevelt Democrats, one from the
South and the other from the West,
frankly do not believe that 1t is possible
to defeat Mr.. Roosevelt for the nomi-
nation next year. On the other hand,
they insist that he may be defeated in
the general election.
Should President Roosevelt not be a
candidate to succeed himself, for any
reason at all, there would be a wide
exceedingly doubtful the President
would be able to pick the candidate. If
he tried. That he would make the ef-
fort to select his successor, however
seems certain. He would want man
who would carry on, not throw over
board, the policies for which he has
fought.
If Mr.. Roosevelt were out of the pic
ture, the Democrats who spring to mind
as possible nominees include Vice Presi-
dent Wallace, James F. Byrnes of South
Carolina, war mobilization director;
James A. Farley. Democratic State chair
man of New York; Senator Harry Byrd
of Virginia Associate Justice Douglas
of the Supreme Court and Paul v. Nc
Mutt of Indiana, Federal Security Ad-
ministrator. Secretary Of State Cordell
Hull and former Vice President Garner.

! than is Secretary Hull, and none better
fol for y.
would be 73 years of age before he en-
tered the White House, and it is con-
sidered unlikely he would permit his
name to go before the convention.
1t is 95 years since resident of the
South was elected President of the
United States. None have been nomi-
mated by the Democratic party for the
presidency since the Civil War. Woodrow
Wilson was born in Virginia. but as
young man he went north, and it was
from New Jersey that he came to the
presidency. So it was with Zachary
Taylor, native of Virginia and a resi-
dent of Louisiana, who was the last real
Southerner to be elected President An
drew johnson of Tennessee, Lincoln's
Vice President succeeded to the presi-
dency after Lincoln was assassinated
In the list of Democratic possibili-
ties-in the event Mr.. Roosevelt is not
renominated-are two widely known
Democrats of the South, Mr. Byrnes, who
has been both Senator and associate
justice of the Supreme Court, and Sem
ator Byrd. The former has been strong
supporter of the Roosevelt administra-
ton. 1t has even been rumored that Mr..
Byrnes would be the Presidents running
mate next year, in place of Vice Presi-
dent Wallace, though Mr. Byrnes has
denied he knows anything of such plan
Senator Byrd, on the other hand. Is a
strong critic of the New Deal He has
| for years demanded day In and day out,
an abandonment of the huge deficit

administration.

AS the Democrats are divided into New
| Deal and anti-New Deal factions, so the

question of foreign policy. Mr.. Willkie

cooperation and abandonment of the
old isolationist position of the party. To

trary, their plan Is to have many dele
cations pledged to number Of favorite-
son candidates. If the President and
his supporters, relying upon draft
movement in the convention itself, fail
to have the Presidents name entered in
presidential preferential primary States,
other Democratic candidates will be put
forward in these States.
In the Democratic national convention
Of 1910 nearly 200 delegates voted
against the nominationsof the President
voted for some other candidate. The
anti-Roosevelt Democrats figure that if
so many anti-Roosevelt delegates were
elected then, it should be comparatively
easy to elect and send to the 1914 con-
vention twice as many or even a ma
jority. To the observer, this seems to be
Wishful thinking. However. some of the
inner circle of the antifourth-
Democrats will undertake to show Just
how this can be done.
Many Delegations Available.
They point out that in a large num-
Der of the States. in every section of the
leaders who have fallen out with the
administration for one reason or another.
They say that Senator Byrd of Virginia
can take an antifourth- term delegation
to the convention; that Senator Gillette
Of Iowa despite the fact that Vice Presi-
dent Wallace halls from his State, may
do the same. They see Jim Farley
controlling a large portion of the big
New York delegation and backed perhaps
by the Massachusetts, deiega ton and one
or two other New England State delega-
tions. Senator Wheeler of Montana may,
they say, have the delegation from his
State, if he will.
They look eagerly to the South for
support, believing that Texas is ripe to
send an antifourth- term delegation to
the convention, and Louisiana, Mississip-
pi, Georgia, Alabama and even South
Carolina may follow suit Oklahoma
Democrats reacted strongly against the
New Deal in the 1912 elections, turning
out Senator Josh Lee and sending an
anti-New Deal Democrat in his place,
elected on Republican ticket They
remember that in the last presidential
race many of the big Midwest States
turned their backs on the President and
gave their electoral votes to Mr.. Willkie.
One Of the most widely known anti
fourth-term Democrats is former Demo-
cratic National Chairman James A. Far
ley. Mr.. Farley has travelled widely
through the country during the last six
months. He is on trip now which will
take him to the Pacific Coast and as far
south as Mexico. He is travelling, he
says, on business of the Coca-Cola Ex-
port Corp. But that will not prevent his
seeing keymen, politically, in many
States. That an organiza ton is being
quietly erected to fight fourth term is
as certain as the sun sets in the West.
Nothing, however, will be said about it,
in all probability, for months to come.
But the groundwork will be done-and
