The Great Game Of Politics.

IN Chief" appeal and the Roosevelt
personal following, coupled with
his basic political assets, are suf-
flcient for another victory. There
is, first, the enormous asset of g.
100000 civilian Federal jobholders,
practically all OF whom will vote.
A conservative estimate is that
each of these 3,1o0,000 jobholders is
worth three votes-two besides his
own. This means that the President
will have more than nine million
votes to start with. Then there is
the Negro vote. In II border and
Northern States in which the Negro
vote is large the President in the
last two elections has polled over 80
per cent. Perhaps 1t is not that solid
for him now, but 1t is still pretty
solid.
Big Labor Vote.
Then there is the block Of $50 900
American Labor party votes in New
York, without the electoral votes Of
which State only one President has
ever been elected. Also there is the
big union labor vote in the country.
Mr.. Roosevelt Is not as popular
in the AFL as he was in 1910, but
the CIO leadership already is lead
ing the fight for him and in the past
has been able to deliver large part
OF its membership.
Reelection of Roosevelt is the
Communist party line and not long
ago the Daily Worker bestowed un-
solicited praise upon Frank Hague
as reward for his Roosevelt sup
port. Combine these things with the
war and the Roosevelt popularity,
even though diminished, and 1t is
easy to see why the President and
his friends believe the trick can be
done again.
Two other things they think favor
him-one, the general acceptance
that no other Democrat would have
as good a chance Of winning; the
other, that there is no other Demo-
crat in sight on whom the oppo-
sition can unite. But after 1t Is all
added up, there are factors this
time that makes the fourth term
effort really dangerous and his more
clear-headed friends know 1t. This
does not lessen their determination
to make the fight. They have to
make it. 1t is their one chance to
stay in office.

In Rome is no surprise to the Pope,

the Pope was advised that unless
