Whether FIR Will
Seek 4fh Term
Under Conjecture
Political Enemies of
President Placing Bets
On Reelection Attempt

WASHINGTON, Feb. II,
(UP) - Some of President
ROosevelt's friends and some
of his political enemies to-
day are convinced that he
will seek a fourth term and bets
real money-are being made both
ways.
The facts are that t.r. Roosevelt
has two major political decisions
to make before the 1914 election
year is we'll started. The first is
whether he will run again, ard
there are persuasive arguments that
he may. and the second is whether
he shall resume his 1888 effort to
purge the Democratic party of con-
servativeS.
PURGE MISFIRED
Mr. Roosevelt's 1896 purge mis-
fired in all but one contest His
influence defeated Rep. John j.
O'Connor, D., N. Y, a Tammany
congressman. But the half dozen or
so Democratic senatorial candidates
Mr.. Roosevelt or his associates
sought to beat in 1888 primaries
all came through to reelection. That
was six years ago and they are up
again except for the late Alva B.
Adam of Colorado.
Hangovers from the 1888 purge
may figure considerably in develop
ment of an stop-Roosevelt move
ment. Some of the men against
whom the administration moved in
l938-perhaps all of them-could
become a holding company for stop
Roosevelt convention votes. And it
is not unlikely that it may work out
that way.
DIRECT APPEALS
In 1898 MI Roosevelt made direct
and personal appeals for the pri-
mary defeat of Sen. Walter F..
George, D., Ga, Sen. Ellison d.
Smith, D., S. c., and Sen. Millard
F.. Tydings, d, Md. The voters over
ruled him in each instance. Harry
l.. Hopkins tried to head off Sen.

ton inspired sortie was made
