Another Roosevelt Wins

The smashing victory scored by Franklin
d. Roosevelt, junior in the special election
to fill the House seat vacated by the death
of Representative Sol Bloom is another
mark of changing times in American
politics.
BY older standards, the odds were against
the third son of the late President. He had
as assets his name and a marked resem-
blance to his father. But other factors
seemed to be against him. He did not live
in the Twentieth District, from which he
was seeking election. Senator McGrath,
the national Democratic chairman, had
come out for his principal opponent,
Tammany's Justice Benjamin Shalleck.
Justice shalleck, a lifelong resident of the
district, had a credtable record and was
favorably known. for his philanthropic
endeavors Young Roosevelt was seeking
his first elective Office and had no record
in public life. Finally, he had to buck the
organization of Tammany Hall, which
knew 1t was fighting for its life. Roosevelt's
only organized support came from the
Liberal Party, representing rightwing
labor. The left-wing American Labor
Party, which might have helped him, had
Its own candidate in the field.
In this setting about $4,000 people were
expected to turn out and vote. Had that
estimate been correct, Justice Shalleck,
with his 24,352 votes, probably would have
won. But the estimate was wrong. The
Independent voters f1ocked to the polls and
the total vote ran above 10000 With an
aggregate of l,146 votes, Roosevelt had q
clear majority in field of four candidates.
There are two obvious inferences to be
drawn. One is that new star has risen
on the political horizon. Any man with
the political pulling power that young
