kind of stuff on election day NEW HAMPSHIRE'S OBSERVER

In Philadelphia just a year ago, New Hampshire Democrats finally icined the handwagon rush to nominate Harry Truman-except for ore man.
 While hundreus of Democrats were privately opposed to Truman, few from the north had the cour- age to stand up and say so. But one delegate from New Hampshire did stand up-Harry Carlson, Dem- ocratic Committeeman.
 Harry Truman, who has a long memory, never forgot that lone vote. While he has opened his arms to most DiXiecrats who op- posed him not only at Philadelphia but in the final election, he has cold -shouldered the lone dissenter from New Hampshire Carlson got out and worked hard for Truman after he was nominated. But that made no difference. His job as Democratic National Committeeman was promptly taken away.
 However, some interesting poli- tical things are now happening in New Hampshire. And the man who had the courage to stand up alone on the Philadelphia conven- ton floor happens to control the balance of power in his supposedly Republican state.
 The Truman forces are against Carlson, and so are the Republican leaders. Yet, in important votes in the State legislatures, he has de- feated both.
 It has gone so far that the chairman of the Democratic Execu- tive Committee. Dayton McKean, has been afraid to call meeting of the committee. knowing that the Carlson forces, if given chance to hold an election, would throw him out. Meanwhile, the Democratic National Committeeman, Emmett Kelly, who replaced Carlson and was appointed Racing Commission CT by a Republican Governor. ire quently throws his influence to the Republicans.
 ] But Carlson, calling himself a one-man lobby for the people, has been able to swing about 130 Dem- i ocratic votes and 60 Republicans on such vital issues as the sales tax and the income tax. As a result conscientious Gov Sherman Adams Republican, has not been able to put across his program, even though Truman Democrats have sided with him and urged that he get Democratic support.
 Politically, New Hampshire is 8 unique and interesting state The Republicans from the small towns 1 and farming areas are more liberal than many Democrats. They are far more liberal than Republican leaders who control the power companies, the banks, the insurance companies, and, in general, the state.
 What Washington is watching is how long this situation will con- i tinue. Democratic leaders in Wash ington would like to make peace with Carlson, believe John L. Sulli- van, former Secretary of the Navy might be elected a Democratic Senator from New Hampshire next year. But they know that he can't make it until they woo both Harry Carlson and Harry Truman into the same camp.

 Later, when Roosevelt entered the White House, he bitterly dislikeo Rhode Islands Senator Petei Gerry, handed the states patron- age over to his old friend, Eddie Bowling. Bowling, unfamiliar with politics, passed it on to Howard McGrath.
 That gave McGrath his big poli- tical start. He ran for State Att torney General, then for Governor, and while serving as Governor was offered the post of Solicitor Gener- al in the Justice Department. Tru- man had first offered this office which presents government cases to the Supreme Court-to Gov. Ellis Arnall of Georgia. Arnall turned it down.
 At that time, TfuIl6;l's chances of being reelected were considered nil However, Governor McGrath accepted the job on the second bounce, even left the Governor ship to take it. From there, he went on to the Senate, now to the cabinet If he had declined the Solicitor Generalship, he would never be where he is today.
