CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE the state industrial board and possibly the public service commission, is sent back to circuit judges, that the salaries should be increased. Another popular measure is the one which would give each county council the power to set salaries of county officials, and also the auth crity to determine whether the county should have several officials like attendance officer, county agricultural agent and others. The Ways and Means committee of the House has -been actually striving to reach some sort of an agreement toward a program, but so far there is no set program. House Democrats are planning to hold a caucus the first of the week and Senate Democrats already have had a meeting and plan more in the near future. House leaders, Walter Myers. Delph McKesson and Earl Crawford. are now making efforts to poll their membership to ascertain just how many Democrats will stand by the party's program it one is agreed on. The House adjourned Friday afternoon. but only a handful of the members left Indianapolis. Most of the members agree that the session will go the full 40 days, but others are holding on to the belief that the business can be disposed of in about 30 days. Both the House and Senate are. air cooled, but because of the large attendance of spectators, the cool-, ing systems have failed to give any 1 relief from the heat of the past week. It is estimated that more than' 250 bills will be introduced in the two houses during the next ten days.

Farley, known to thousands as “Big Jim,” is not the newcomer to politics as it popularly supposed outside hit home State of New York. In fact, the man who is credited with “putting Roosevelt over” at the recent convention has been playing the game tince he was twelve. Farley wat born in Grassy Point, Rockland County, N. Y., in 1888, and at an age when he should have been counting his marbles he was fascinated by the oratory, extolling the full dinner pail, that was a feature of the McKinley-Bryan campaign. So intrigued was he by politics that he was made a town committeeman in the Democratic Party, long before he made his first mark on a ballot. Farley’s first elective office was that of Town Clerk of Stony Point, N. Y., from 1912 to 1919. Then in rapid succession he became Supervisor and Assemblyman, in the meantime climbing to eminence in the councils of the State Democratic Party, of which he was named chairman in 1930. His “ringcraft” in the recent campaign for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, which astounded many old warhorses of innumerable conventions, may have been a product of his experience as chairman of the State Boxing Commission; for politics resembles boxing inasmuch as the main object is to get one’s opponent where one wants him and then to hit hard and often. “Big Jim’s” methods are those o' the “Regular Fellow,” the good mixer. Big, jovial, diplomatic and astute, he is a past master in guiding a wavering inclination just in the direction in which he wants it to go. This faculty held the Roosevelt liee in order during many ('trying session at the recent convention.

New York. Contrary to whit is, believed outside his home state,! •lames A. Farley, new chairman of the Democratic national committee, "Roosevelt’s Warwick." is not j the ndwcomcr to po'itics. In fact. “Big Jim." as he I.t ■ known to| thousands, may well be regarded as a veteran in the game that guides, a nation's destinies, having been a politician even before he came of voting age. Farley was born in Grassy Point. Rockland county, N. Y„ on May 30. 1888. and at the tender age of twelve, when the game of aggies should have been his forte, was I fascinated by the oratory extolling | full dinner pails that was a feature I of the McKinley-Bryan campaign. So enamoured, indeed, was the young man with the art of swaying the public mind that he was made j a town committeeman in the Dem-1 erratic party long before he made ! his first mark on a ballot. The first o’ectlve office ever hel l by "Big ,llm" was that of Town Clerk of Stony Point. N. Y . Jrom 1912 to 1919. From 1920 to 1923 he was supervisor of the town, and 1923 saw him e’ectod assemblyman. During this time he had climbed slowly, but surely, into the inner Pouncils of the state Democratic party end in 1930. ho was named chairman of the state committee. When one stops to consider that Farley did not devote all his time to politics, carrying on his business as dealer in builders' supplies on the side, his rapid rise to political importance is'fiil the more remarkable. The strategy which "Big Jim” displayed in managing the campaign of Governor Franklin D j Roosevelt, for the Presidential I nomination, and which, incidentali

Uy, astounded many old warhorses of innumerable conventions, may Ibe a product of his experience as (hairman of the New York State Boxing Commission; for. after all. the successful politician is very similar to a successful boxer who has the faculty of getting an opiponent where he wants him and then hitting hard and often. i For the last year, Far’.ey has been : indefatigable in "his work of advancing the Roosevelt-for-President I campaign Without the aid of a large organization, he has journeyed north, south, east and west, ivisiting state and local -leaders, (familiarizing himself with men and (conditions in all parts of the country and in general keeping his Angler on the pulse of national sentiment. His methods «re those of the j "regular follow,” the good mixer. Big—he s.tands six feet, two and a ha'f inches tall and weighs about 215 pounds - jovia . diplomatic and exceedingly astute, Farley is credited with swinging the support qf nineteen states to the Roosevelt! banner during one twenty-day trip | last summer, which feat earned his' the title of America's fastest contactor. His maneuvering during the convention was an ( ducation in itself. 3 here was a time when every indication pointed to a deadlock between Governor Roosevelt's forces and those of the allied “stop Roosevelt" movement and even the most expert of the experts announced | that things did not look so rosey for "Big Jim." But the jovial Mr. Farley remained unworried. The very personification of confidence and radiating good fel'ow-i ship he strobed among the delega-' tions which rumor said were wav-1 gnMß ** aiw ** , " l *" l ‘"*****nTWTl w fnnif law

ering and. with a pat on the back i here and a chuckled admonition | I there, held the Roosevelt line ini-1 ' pregnable. Farley was married in 1920 to. I the former Elizabeth A. Finnegan. | let Haverstraw. N. Y.. where he now . ! maintains his permanent residence.' : He has three children. Elizabeth.. i Ann and James, Jr., than whom he I , has no more ardent admirers’ The family radio was going for every . minute of "Big Jim's” pre-conven-] tion campaign, none of his devoted’ little family desiring to miss one' word concerning the husband and father who is now ca led “the maker or Presidents”. Strangely enough, Farley campaigned for former Governor Alfred E. Smith in 1921 and 1928. It . is ironical that "Big Jim" should! be the man responsible for the de-1 feat of the "Happy Warrior” in ] 1932. Q II Test Your Know ledge ' ! Can you answer seven of test questions?

He had everything to live , for. To him, the world, instead of being > place ct labor and harass- . ment, was an immense plajg ountl , where he could roam at will, indulging in his very whim. Yet, -all indications point to the fact that his life became no longer endurable.
