FOURTH TERM,
F.D.R. Willing

One week before the Democratic
national convention met in Chicago,
Franklin D. Roosevelt, looking cool
in his seersucker pants and white
shirt, but wriggling nervously, told
a gathering of 200 quiet newspaper
men that if the people of the U. S.
decreed, he would be willing to
serve fourth term as president.
With the country's objective being
speedy end to the war, a durable
peace and the creation of a prosper
GUS economy, F. D. r. said that he
would have to accept a fourth term
as a good soldier" if the people
again called upon him to remain at
the helm of state.
F. D. RS announcement was
front page news the world over, with
both British and Russian papers
playing it up without comment. The
German radio disclaimed interest,
saying: One is convinced
here Gin Berlin) that military and
political issues which are now at
stake are not to be influenced by this
or that President of the United
States"

PACIFIC:

The spotlight in the ever widen

northern New Guinea, where $4,000
desperate Japanese sandwiched be-
tween U. S. beachheads all along the
coast, repeatedly attempted to break
through the iron ring being forged
around them.
In the islands farther to the north,
U. S. warships and planes con-
tinued to pepper the important step
ping stones to the Japanese main
land, with Guam below captured
Saipan the major target.
Despite the ferocity of their at
tacks in New Guinea, the position
of the Japanese forces was hopeless,
with Yanks occupying large patches
all along the 600 miles of coastline
to their west, and other Allied forces
firmly entrenched to their east.

AGRICULTURE:
Bumper Crops

Overcoming machinery and man.
power difficulties, U. S. farmers are
expected to turn in bumper crops in
1914, the department Of agriculture
reported, with the wheat harvest
anticipated at an all-time high of
1,128, 100000 bushels, 119,000,0 900
over the former top Of 1915.
Prospects we're reported good for
all grains, with the corn crop ex-
pected to approximate 1880, 000, 600,
the fifth largest in U. S. history.
Although near record harvests were
predicted for hay, fruits, vege-
tables and soybeans, and a 20 per
cent increase in truck produce for
the fresh market is anticipated, the
department looks for smaller dry
beans and peas, peanuts and potato
crops.
Harvested acreage was set at
355, 900, 600 acres for the 81 principal
crops, largest since 1882, and 2 per
cent over last year.

POPULATIONS:
Big Shifts

AS result of military and civilian
migrations in the U. S. between 1910
and 1913, the south and west gained
more than 100000 inhabitants
while the north-central and north
eastern states lost approximately
10000
Twenty per cent increases were
noted for Arizona, Florida, Nevada
and California, with the latter state
alone, with its great shipbuilding
and aircraft industries, showing a
boost of 1858, 135.
Montana, North Dakota and South
Dakota lost more than 10 per cent
of their populations, but New York
showed the greatest numerical de-
crease, with 620,939.
TURKEYS
So that servicemen will be as
sured of plenty of turkeys for
Thanksgiving, Christmas and New
Years, the War Food administration
has ordered that all birds produced
and marketed within "a states and
parts of three others, shall be re-
served for army and navy purchas-
ing agents until the necessary guam
tity is obtained. Last year supply
services bought 35,000,000 and it
is expected that this year they will
want even more to satisfy festive
doughboy appetites.

CLAssIFIEs AS ADMINISTRATOR

Intellectually Dewey must not be
classified as lawyer, or politician.
Rather he is an administrator. AS
district attorney and governor he
chose to lead bright young band,
and to rely upon them for the spade
work but not as Roosevelt did, for
ideologies. He leads them only in
the sense that an administrator as
signs work to them and makes the
final conclusion from their work. He
does not try to dominate the
thoughts of his associates or press
them to his viewpoint. This is evil
dent in the fact that no one who
ever worked for him has resigned
"a remarkable record.)
Few men like work as he does.
He remained behind after this con-
vention to shake 5000 hands the first
night and to thresh out campaign de-
tails with the hundreds of leaders
assembled here. He did not choose
an outlying hotel, but remained at
convention headquarters. He likes
Bricker, who did much inside work
on the platform in daily breakfast
consultations with Senator Taft. His
convention tribute to Bricker was
not only an extraordinary consider
alton for a second man, but wise,
and Bricker will no doubt be a vice
presidential candidate in fact in
stead Of the usual appendage.
Dewey's handling of the Jewish
problem (Which always calls for
wise practicalism in a state like
New York; is another primary ex-
ample of his instinct for unpreju-
diced administration. It was his
man who put the Palestine plank in
the platform, for the first time any
political party had mentioned it.
Conspicuous also here. in his be-
half was Nathaniel Goldstein, his
attorney general, whom he desig-
mated in preference to a personal
friend. Efforts to bestir class an
tagonisms against him on this score
will be difficult.
He has no advisers who guide
his political thoughts. His
friends are few, mostly neigh
bors, the Pat Hogans New York
businessman and college class
mate) and the R0dger Strausses.
They do not bother with politics,
and apparently furnish his re-
Taxation from same. His wife
is a home-and-children type who
will not be conspicuous either in
the campaign or White House.
This "briefing" sums him up COM
pletely for me, answering the ques-
lions in my mind about him, and
forecasts the type of campaign and
government you may expect to be
offered.
The passing Of California's Gov
ernor Warren left no noticeable dis
may around the Dewey headquar-
tiers. Most newsmen here guessed
Warren thought he could not carry
California and therefore had no
place on the ticket. ! suspect some
personal reasons were more impor-
tant, possibly some investments he
has made have not been wise, and
with six children to raise, he may
not have thought he could afford
vice presidential campaign or ten
ancy. The war business win be

DEWEY WILL BRIEF
PROBLEMS BEFORE ACTING
By Paul MALLoN

ENObLEWO nEEORG hOIkNU
CHICAGO.-Republican nominee.
Tom Dewey's method Of handling
problem Is first to have II "briefed."
He designates one Of his men to
analyze both sides thoroughly, to set
these down In writing, saying ION
the one hand there Is this factor"
and ION the other hand there il
this" he takes this evidence, dis
cusses It with his councillors, then
makes his decision.
EMOTIONALISM RULED
Perhaps people may well like to
be guided In their lives by emotion
alism and wholly human considera-
tons, which may not be right, but
for their leadership to assume such
principle would plunge all hope
and faith for the future and tip even
justice itself into the cauldron Of
philosophical fires. Like the Hit
Ter leadership of unreasoned torch
bearing and hatreds.) I guess this il
what interests me most in the new
young leadership which Is taking
over the Republican opposition be-
cause the Willkie leadership popu-
larly failed. Perhaps I am preju-
diced, because for nearly IA years I
have seen a government operate
without ''briefing," without judicial
choices coolly arrived at, and think
this is why its economic solutions
particularly have never worked out
successfully. 1t got votes, but it
never got the problem solved.
At any rate this is what makes
Dewey tick. 1 suppose that in
tellectually Mr.. Roosevelt would
be classified as politician. His
decisions reflect that instinct. In
his way he, is superior to any
public man I have met I'm Is
years Of political reporting. To
gauge the contrast which may
be offered by Dewey, il elected, I
have collected the evidences OF
his gubernat0rial and eonven-
ton workings on one hand and
the other, not only from politi-
clans assembled here but from
the thinking men, and / can

The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1944-12-21

The New York Giants, on the de-
fensive throughout the first half,
came back with everything they
had in the second half-that is ev-
erything except their star fullback,
Bill Paschal, whse injury the pre-
vious Sunday kept him out of the
game, except for four short plays
but they didn't have quite enough
and the Packers took the profess
sional league world title, IA to Z.
While the Giants played bangup
defensive game, the loss of Paschal
slowed down their offense to a
walk, forcing them to resort to
passes in an effort to gain ground
and it was the interrogation of those
desperation long passes that spelled
their defeat.
