General Arnold, chief of Americas

began to talk. The gist of his words

only be guessed but he was faced
with the proposition Of explaining
the obvious and he seemed lust a
little weary at the prospect. Arnold
is a pleasant but blunt-spoken fight
ing man with wings and service rib
bons won in service.
A few days before, he happened to
listen to a commentator who was
computing in dollars and lives and
material the cost of the bombing
raid Of the great ball-bearing fac
tory in Schweinfurt, Germany.
The general was exceedingly
irked. What the commentator did
not perhaps realize was the number
of endless explanations of the OBJ

had to make since we entered the
war. And If Germany does crumble
because her war effort is smashed.
it will be Arnolds explanations as
well as the bombs themselves that
ought to get the credit.
If he had not been able TO "ex-
plain that American bombers could
fly in sufficient numbers into the
heart OF Germany in the light Of day
and hit d target with the precision
to destroy IL, we would never have
a chance to prove it could be done.
There were few in high places either
here or in Britain who believed
such an absurd, untried thing was
practical. But he had his chance
and proved his thesis. Then, when
the experts Were convinced, when
he was beginning to swing into ac-
ton, the public began to exclaim at
the cost Of his raids. That must
have been hard to take.
And so he sat for an hour Keeling
off figures, reeounting details which
will eve be printed until peace
comes and, most effective Of all for
the layman, showing the greatly
enlarged photographs of the destruc-
ton those great daylight precision
raids accomplished.

This situation. II il does arise. inn.
poses an interesting problem for the
Democrats. II is pretty generally
agreed that the conservative element
in the Democratic party has been
gaining in power in the last months
when the President bestowed posi-
tions of key Importance on the right
wing of the party while many New
Dealers faded into the background.
When Vice President Wallace,
whom II was taken for granted would
be the Presidents choice as a sue
cessor, was dropped and his aetivi-
ties placed in the more conservative
hands Of Messrs. Hull, Crowley, ct
al, It was plain that the original
New Dealers were being relegated
to the rear Of the hall.
COP Attitude
!. And while the burning highlights
of the administration portrait are be-
ing toned down to more sober hues,
the Republicans seem TO be outdoing
themselves in an. effort to show that
they can make use of the bright
lexicon of youth as a reference work
and select from it promising shib-
boleths who speak of action rather
than reaction.
OF course, MIR. Wlllkie does not
speak for the Republican party but
he has a following which his sup
porters hope will be reinforced by
disgruntled former New Dealers as
well as others whose leanings, al.
though they have never been such
that they could intellectually sup
port a Democratic regime, are still
far enough left to demand the most
progressive candidate offered under
any other respectable banner.
Meanwhile, Of course, the Presi-
dent must, according to the invio-
liable principles of politics, show no
signs of intending to withdraw, since
it is written that you can't control
your party unless there is a fair
chance that you r going to con-
tinue to be its active head.
Our political campaign of 1914 is
bound to be affected by the tide Of
battle abroad.

House press and radio conference

phrase when I am out Of the

Taken in the context. It vas i'm
mediately clear that the President
did not delimit the time element in
this statement and there was no real
Justification for the startled pause
when pencils stopped scribbling and
heads and eyebrows went up at the
presidential remark. Mr.. Roosevelt
was merely pointing out, in connec-
tion with the postwar rubber situa-
ton, that he believed that any pro-
posed tariff to protect the synthetic
rubber plants after the war should
be vetoed, and he implied that any
President who vetoed such a meas
ure might stir up a lot of opposition
from the synthetic rubber manufac-
turers.
But we have become so accus-
toned to the idea that Mr.. Roosevelt
himself thinks only in terms of his
own regime without time or other
limitations, than an expression which
seemed to indicate the opposite nat
urally caused a stir.
However, II is entirely possible
that Mr.. Roosevelt will not be a al
didate In 1914. There are even those
who enjoy making rash prophecies
who arc already saying he has made
up his mind not to run at all under
any circumstances. This type of
prediction is accepted in Washing
ton as being in that class of guesses
which have about a 40-60 chance Of
being right.
But closer observers who do not
choose to guess the Presidents inner
thoughts but are thoroughly familiar
with his manner of thinking, dedace,

p~erience, that he viii not be a can

End Of Conflict

Although none of the army or navy
officers Of the top command will al
low themselves to be quoted as say
ing the war will end early in 1914,
q number Of holder and less con-
strained military folk are willing to
say this Is possible.
1t is interesting to consider that a
year ago this summer, when many
believed that invasion of northern
Europe by the Allies would be I'M
dertaken by the spring of 1913, few
people were predicting, even under
such circumstances, an end of the
war early In 1914. Take for instance
a typical comment in a leading peri.
odical (Harper's) written very little
over a year ago in which It was said
that Germany must complete the
conquest Of key positions in Russia,
must halt or control the Anglo-Amer-
lean onslaught from the air, and
must hold northern Africa for a
sortie in the Middle East. When we
consider what has happened since,
we can see the progress which has
been made. Far from any action in
which the word conquest" could be
used, the Wehrmacht in Russia has
been driven beyond its last Russian
defense lines in many places. The
dream Of m African empire has be-
come the reality of bitter defeat and
despite desperate defense measures.
the most powerful air blows are be-
ing struck against the Reich.
