CONVINCING CLUES

But there arr numerous FORCES
and considerations that can be

Dst convincing. all Of which can
be added together to get an idea

: Democratic politicians have any
thing 10 do with the decision, he
will run. They know what every
Side1lne watcher KNOWS, mat
from present nationwide pollti-
cal tide trends, II ne doesn't run.
the jig is up for the Democrats.
So the only question is
whether. on the basis Of his own
wishes, he decides 10 go through
with II. Let's weigh out the con-
alterations and see how the
scales behave
Al the moment, every wiRdrift
indicates that II ne does run. it's
the toughest political actuarial
risk he has ever taken IN ell OF
hts years under tho big tent.
And, so far as prestige goes. the
purse is the smallest He's al
ready been the first president 10
be elected for a third term; what
particular additional his tor c
-clnIAL vii be added by La Ncata
in The White House
AT the same time II he takes
the count, he bows out as a dis
credited defeated figure who
overstayed his welcome and got
his nose tweaked for trying TO
hog tho national honoTS.
And. II be takes the count. his
power in the Democratic party
and most Of his power with the
American public goes out. poof-

you think Mr.. Roosevelt is going
after 16 years in the White
House, en-?
Well. balancing the clue books
as OF the end OF business tonight,
it looks as though you probably
. are right.
Anyway, It's a nice. neighborly
gesture for you to think that
way, because the Democratic
: political bosses, whose jobs de-
pend upon the party staying in
power. want you TO, so, so much.
The more you say it, the more
public rah-rah is developed, de-
handing it. and the less chance
there is for him TO slip out, in
case he might be so minded.
Also, it's nice neighborly
gesture, toward a small and
super-optimistic strata Of the Re-
publican political war lords, who
think they want Mr.. Roosevelt as
the man they lick. They want
the verdict 10 be final, conclu-
sive, and unmistakable.
OF course, whatever you think.
it's strictly speculation. because
so far as I've been able 10 find
out, the one and only establish
. able fact az the moment seems
: 10 be that nobody alive, except
the President. really knows what
he's going 10 do. Perhaps he
doesn't himself
