It Seems to Me HEYWOD BROUN POLITICAL parties and serpents have the ability to survive until the sundown even after their heads have been bashed Into bits. And so it would probably be a mistake to assume that Republicans have vanished from the face of the earth. They rattles still writhe feebly and the Tribune comes out each mornin*. But, as far as present indications go. the Republican party can hardly be an important factor in the nest national election. Mr. Hoover has become not only distinctly ex but eternally emeritus. Where, then, is the next

white hope? As one who loves the leads and counters of political campaigning I hope that Franklin D. Roosevelt will not come out of his comer In 1936 to demolish some sorry setup. The answer lies along the coast and in the middle west. Last summer it was my privilege to talk to a state executive who shall be nameless but who happened to come out of the last campaign. •What platform are you going to run on ror the pre idency?” I asked him. -My only thought,” he answered, "is to give the best I can

to my constitutuents in the fair state of X Y Z.“ • a a Broun Seeks a C olumn PLEASE don’t kid me." I persisted. "You know blame well that you have heard the buzzing of that bee around your ears.” The Governor admitted grudgingly that he had allowed his thoughts to stray as far as the White House on occasion. But being young, redhaired, and in excellent health, he preferred to consider only 1940 and allow the nearer test to go by without any bid on his part. But I explained to him that St. Paul was a long ride from New York and that I was in desperate need of a column. It would not be impossible to frame one around the potentialities of 1936 but four vears later took the whole discussion out of the realm of news interest. My friend agreed to play ball and discuss for the sake of argument, the position which he might take m the next general election. . , "In order to save your time and mine, I toia him. "it will not be necessary for you to explain just v hat you would say about Jimmy Wadsworth or Oggie Mills if either of them runs as the Republican standard bearer but what line of attack would you pursue in competition with Roosevelt?" Floyd admitted frankly that he was puzzled. "Well," he answered, "it all depends upon what he does in the next two years. If he moves as far left as I think he's going to move I don't think Id be able to say anything.” "Come. come. Mr. Olsen,” I objected. “I understand that President Roosevelt is a liberal and that you're a radical. Doesn't that make any difference?" "Sure I’m a radical.” equivocated the Governor. m a m It's All Figured Out LIKE a good reporter I continued my cross-exam-ination and asked. "Just what does that mean? Are you in favor of government ownership of the railroads?” "Os course." said Olsen. "And the mines and other natural resources?” Aeain he assented, although a little more slowly. "And you have some program for the redistribution of the land?” “Redistribution of the land!” exclaimed the subject of the interview. "Don’t be silly. My constitutuents mostly are farmers." 1 repeat as much of this conversation as I think I can remember over a lapse of time because it supports my belief that what Ernest Lindley called "The Roosevelt Revolution" now is taking definite shape. From the point of view of Marxists this will not be any revolution at all and yet it has farreaching consequences in the economic life of America My guess is that in the next two years and in the term to follow after the middle class will be distinctly In the saddle. Like Governor Olsen I assume that the President will move to the left after his latest electoral mandate. Within a year he will be a shade to the left of the La Folletes so that they need not trouble him. Before November. 1936. comes around I not only hope but believe that Roosevelt will be at least as radical as Upton Sinclair. It is my notion that the official coolness toward the winner of the Democratic primaries in California was less on account of any economic agreement but depended rather mere upon the President’s feeling that Sinclair had beaten the gun by a couple of strides. We are moving. I believe, into a world where a drastic limitation will be set upon the amount of money which anybodv can leave to his descendants. Miss Doris Duke will be almost another Dred Scott in the political discussions of the days which lie immediately ahead of us. I also think that within a short span of time anew kind of income tax will practically set a figure beyond which no individual income may go. I am not convinced that any such measures will solve our economic difficulties and even so I look forward to the next few years with great delight. Mark Sullivan will be rendered speechless and Mr. Hoover will be outraged beyond the capacity of ever writing another book. iCopvrseht. 1934. hv The Time*!

DOCTORS everywhere are discovering that more noses are being broken in connection with the increase of motor accidents. Cars are now built for high speeds and roads are adapted to the speed of the cars. Because of the very nature of the human anatomy and of the maimer in which one sits in a motor car. the nose is probably more frequently injured in such accidents than any other part of the body. Persons in the front seat are thrown through the windshield when the speed of the car is suddenly stopped. They may get anything from a slight bruise on the nose to having it cut off. Those m the back seat sometimes smash noses against the back of the front seat. a a a THERE is the case of a girl. 8. who had her nose shaved off almost on a level with her face when the car in which she was riding hit a truck. Nobody thought of the nose while riding to the hospital. However, as soon as the surgeon saw the child he sent a messenger posthaste to the scene of the accident for the nose. The surgeon tried to graft the nose back on. but too much time was lost and the operation was not a success. It is possible, however, if attempts are made immediately to restore a nose to the spot from which it is cut. to save the appearance of the organ m many instances. mam \XOTHER case is described in which two women were driving in a small car on a country road when they met another car coming in the opposite direction. Their car was forced from the road and it turned over. A piece of glass from the windshield cut the driver s nose off completely at a point Just below the ends of the nasal bones. The part cut away remained attached to the upper Up by two narrow strips of skin. By rare presence of mind on the part of the other woman, the nose was put back in place and held up by a piece of bandage until the patient was seen by a surgeon an hour later. He sewed the tissues together again and got a fair-looking appearance, but unfortunately the tissues under the surface curled up so that breathing was stopped The two main things to keep In mind when such accidents occur are first of all the maintenance of absolute cleanliness, and second, the obtaining of surgical attention at the earliest possible moment. Usually it is well to inject persons, who have been badly injured in motor car accidents, with a small doae of tetanus antitoxin in order to prevent lockjaw.

WAR PROBE ONLY RAY OF HOPE

Another Armistice Day Sees Nations Ready for New Conflict

BY RODNEY DITCHER. Times Special Writer <Cot>?riht. 1934. NEA Service. Inc WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 Sixteen years after the last shot in the war to •"make the world safe for democracy" The world is overloaded with dictatorships ard its air reeks with more ii eors of imminent war than evtr before. Some 200 treaties of amity have been signed and they all look like so many "scraps of paper." Disarmament efforts have broken down. New generation of cannon fodder are ready to be uniformed. On this Armistice day a few disabled veterans and Gold Star mothers may look back to the last war. Generally speaking, the world looks forward to the next. About SIO,OOO 000.000 has been spent in these sixteen years on "insurance against war’’—munitions, armaments and military establishments. And the only note of slight comfort in the whole picture is the fact that after sixteen years a government has had the courage to investigate the munitions trust —the “war insurance" agents—and their method of high pressure salesmanship. On the theory that these blithe go-getters are always potential, and sometimes actual, war-makers. aaa THE senate munitions committee has unearthed enough evidence to provide at least three square meals of thought on this Armistice day. tit is going to reveal a lot more, beginning early in December.) You can take your choice from the grewsome menu, but here are a few samples: It has been shown, for instance, that the United States hardly could fight a war with nny country in the world today without the assurance that its soldiers or sailors would be slaughtered by weapons produced by American factories or American brains—and sold by American super-sales-manship. Submarines, warplanes, explosives, gas, machine guns and other sinews of war have been "pushed” around the world in these sixteen years and were part of the great flood of American exports turned loose in the post-war prosperity era. The navy, war, commerce and state departments have helped to promote sales. In some

The DAILY WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND By Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen —

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—With a two-thirds majority in the senate and with Democratic ranks in the house only slightly impaired by Tuesday's landslide, administration master minds are in about the same position as the Tennessee mountaineer with the bear by the tail. They can't do anything with the danged critter and they can’t let go. Although the new congress convening in January will be plastered with Democratic labels, the markers will mean absolutely nothing. Above all they will not mean support for the White House.

That is in the laps of the gods, with the chances strong that party allegiance will run fast, loose and haywire. This, of course, is what the master-minds are worried about. And it is no secret that the President would have been delighted had he lost part of his top-heavy majority. a a a THERE are three reasons why the new congress will not be particularly responsible to the guiding hand of the Democratic administration whose label it bears. 1. Seldom is congress ever as responsive to the President after his first two years are over. By that time patronage is passed out; there are no more jobs to be dished; the White House lacks the power of political bribery or coercion. 2. One of the strongest factions in the new congress is the progressive group, completely independent. and voting with Roosevelt only when its members agree with him. 3. Another faction in congress though definitely Democratic, is more violently opposed to various New Deal reforms than the most reactionary Republican in congress. These factions stand out more distinctly in the senate. In this body. also. Roosevelt will have his chief trouble next session. Leaders of the so-called progressive or radical bloc include some of the most spectacular names on Capitol Hill. Sometimes ardently behind Roosevelt, they can cause him more trouble to the square inch than any other political problem. Among them are; ••Share - the - Wealth” Senator Huey Long, who despite his clowning commands an important following in the deep South. Theodore G. Bilbo, sent to Washington by the Mississippi electorate on the promise that he would “raise more hell than Huey Long.” Burton K. Wheeler, of Montana, returning for his third term, is just as rabid against the big interests as ever. Senator Robert M. LaFollette of Wisconsin, who will take his seat this time under a third party label, pledged to more sweeping economic reforms than ever before. Lewis Baxter Schwellenbach. left-hitting Democrat, who takes office on a platform pledge to end poverty in the state of Washington. Rush D. Holt, 29-year-old West Virgmiap, who as a champion high school and college orator, openly campaigned as more “left” than the New Deal. * m m a WHAT really worries Roosevelt, however, is the Democratic line-up ir. sheep's clothing. These, though reputedly stanch followers of party, can be controlled with less regularity than Progressive Reoublicans. Take for instance. Senator Carter Glaas of Virginia, or his colleague from the same state—Senator Byrd. They have been Roosevelt's most ardent foes on monetary and agricultural measures. Senator (Cotton Ed) South of South Carolina is in the sanfe category. So are Senators Gore of

cases public servants—supported by American taxpayers have helped sell to foreign countries what were supposedly our own war secrets. And many of the buying nations paid with money obtained from American investors for bonds which are worthless today. aaa AMERICAN submarine patents helped make possible the German U-boats which took many American lives at sea. They’re now being used to make Japanese submarines. When the world was considering a boycott of Japan for its violation of treaties in Manchuria and China, a big American company sold Japan a secret process for producing cheap power. Today most of the "merchants of death,” in this country and abroad, seem to be shipping their wares into Nippon—so often considered our next antagonist in war. Participation of munitions makers in war scares has long since been shown. War scares lead to war. American munitions makers also have been exposed as egging in South American countries to increase armaments against each other. It was Lammot du Pont who admitted that activities of this country in a friendly and beaceful South American country

Thus Roosevelt goes into the next congress more than ever stamped as a “middle-of-the-road” man. From one side he will be pulled by the progressive . group. From the other will tug the conservative Democrats. From another side also will be j pulling big business. Recovered from its depression jitters, business is now militant and aggressive. Its lobbyists will ' overflow the corridors of Congress during the coming session. (Coovrieht. 1934. bv United Feature Syndicate.

THE NATIONAL ROUNDUP aaa aaa By Ruth Finney

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—The coming election in the house of representatives has the administration more worried than the popular balloting ever did. It is no exaggeration to say that President Roosevelt’s political future may depend on the choice of a Speaker of the new house.

It will take unusual qualities of judgment and leadership to keep in hand the agglomeration Democratic congressmen with which the country has presented the administration. They represent many diverse points of view and some of them will use every means at their command to raise issues the President would rather not have raised. If a weak leadership takes over the reins of the house the President may find it necessary to quarrel with his congressional majority, even to override some of its decisions. This is dangerous business. It creates bitter resentments and cleavages in popular opinion. The Rainey-Byrns leadership last year used such severe gag rules in trying to control the house that they received universal condemnation, yet failed to prevent a vote on the cash bonus and the radical Dies silver bill, and several times had to adjourn the house to prevent other catastrophes to their program. Only by desperate maneuvering was a vote on the McLeod bank pay-off bill prevented and the situation became so ticklish that the administration chose early adjournment to completion of the program it originally had mapped out for the session. a a a Floor leader byrns of this same combination now is making a strong bid for the speakership, in spite of the fact that he does not see eye to eye with the New Deal on many mat-

bying, patent-swapping, spreading of fear and hate, prodding of nations into greater war preparations —there is an epecially clear chapter which may be of particular interest to such veterans as can remember whom we were fighting in the last great war. The one pleasant idea that arose from the smoking battlefields with their mounds of dead after Nov. 11, 1918. was that united nations could enforce some kind of international control and so keep the peace. The best way to keep the peace, everyone then agreed, was to keep Germany disarmed. That’s why the Versailles treaty prohibits German “exportation or importation of arms.” Today, everyone agrees that Hitlerized Germany is armed. And that Hitlerized Germany is the chief menace of the peace of Europe. Machine guns began to trickle into Germany and soon there was a general flow’ of war materials. America’s contribution has been chiefly in airplane engines and patents. It also appears that the United States is headed into a naval raee with Japan, which is exactly the sort of thing the munitions makers love but doesn’t lead away from war.

ters. In the last two years he has had many opportunities to do favors for his Democratic colleagues and as chairman of the Democratic congressional campaign committee he has had an opportunity to woo the incoming members of his party. He will jump into the spotlight this month when President Roosevelt visits Andrew Jackson’s hermitage, in Bvrns’ home district, and his friends will try to interpret this visit as a sign of presidential favor. But in spite of this situation, there is a growing belief here that Sam Rayburn of Texas, rather than Byrns, will be the next Speaker. Rayburn is on a closer personal basis with the President than most congressmen. He pays frequent informal visits to the White House. It was to him that the administration entrusted most of its important legislation, and the finesse with which he handled it proved one of the high points of the last session. son WHEN it came time for him to take the stock market bill to the floor of the house he refused to have the help of a gag rule, and he did such an effective job of exposing lobbying tactics against the measure that it passed overwhelmingly and without important amendments. He piloted the railroad labor disputes act, the railroad retirement act and the communications act through, and at the first session of the seventy-third congress had charge of the transportation and securities acts. President Roosevelt, of course, will avoid any appearance of attempting to influence the selection of a speaker, yet it would not be surprising if he found some way, in the next month, to emphasize his friendship with Rayburn. The Byrns supporters, aware of the strength of Rayburn’s position, are suggesting a coalition which would make him floor leader. This is a proposal which w r ill receive little attention, however. The Democratic party’s new strength in the north and west will make an all-southern leadership virtually impassible. Not only are Byrns and Rayburn from Tennessee and Texas, respectively, but the chairman of the rules committee, William B. Bankhead, is from Alabama. Wise heads here are predicting that Rayburn and Byrns will lock horns on the basis of speakership or nothing. Whichever wins probably will win with the help of a northern or western coalition which will demand the right to name a floor leader; and the two best guesses for this post are John W. McCormack of Massachusetts and James M. Mead of New York. BANKS CLOSED MONDAY Armistice Day Holiday to Be Observed, Says Brown. Arthur V.

Fair Enough MM PEW A PRESS agent has sent vour correspondent an excited description of Alpha, the robot, or mechanical man, who can stand up. sit down, raise his arms and answer questions in a human voice under the direction of his owner. Professor Harry May. The press agent seems to think Alpha quite a remarkable device. Far be it from your correspondent to scoff at marvels, but the press agent s letter arrives at an inopportune moment. It arrives at a time when

your correspondent has just returned from San Francisco, where he had a chance to observe Governor Frank F. Merrian at close range. Naturally, Alpha's accomplishments fail to impress your correspondent. It is true that Alpha has certain tricks in his repertoire which the Governor of California has not mastered. For example, the Governor never has learned to answer questions nor can it be claimed that standing up is one of his feats. He is not a stand-up man, but he is one of the greatest leaners that the world has ever

seen. At the word of command from his owners. Governor Merriam of California will lean this way or that way and to just the exact degree that his owners direct. You probably will see him leaning very soon now as his owners snap out their commands. nan Merriam Vs. Robot Your correspondent saw him lean one afternoon recently when Mahatma Upton Sinclair was threatening to divide up his owners’ all with the poor people of southern California. Governor Merriam's owners are very sensitive about their all and It alarmed them to notice that the Mahatma not only meant what he said but had a large following of people who had no all and wanted theirs. At this-point. Governor Merriam’s owners clapped their hands and barked the command, "Governor, lean five degrees to the left!’’ And you would have been amazed to see the Governor of California lean precisely five degrees left. They say it is done by the pulling of invisible wires. There must be some such explanation because it stands to reason that Governor Merriam would not lean to the left, even so little as five degrees, without some controlling force from his owners. If, presently, the Governor's owners decide that it is not necessary for him to lean any longer and order him to assume his normal posture, he will quit leaning and lie down with great alacrity. Can Alpha, the robot, lean or lie down? In the matter of answering questions in a human voice, Alpha, the robot, plainly has it on the Governor of California. If you ask Governor Merriam a question he can speak words but he never gives answers. He says "that is something wnich will receive earnest consideration’’ or “there is much to be said on both sides of that matter.” Nor can it be claimed that he speaks with a human voice. Mahatma Sinclair had a great advantage over the Governor in that respect, for every one who heard him realized that regardless of the sense or nonsense of what he said, he spoke with the voice of humanity.' Governor Merriam’s voice is that of the politician. aaa And Now Merriam and Cheese NOT expecting an answer, but just to see what he would say, your correspondent asked Governor Merriam one afternoon, “What about Tom Mooney?” “I intend,” he said, “as soon as I can get around to it to give the Mooney case my earnest consideration.” “Do you mean to say,” your correspondent persisted, “that after all these years you are not familiar with the Mooney case?” “There is a great mass of data which must be considered,” the Governor said in his politician’! voice. Alpha, the robot, may have his gilts, but not even his press agent would have the nerve to claim for him the marvelous detachment which enabled Governor Merriam to live twenty years with the Mooney case and know nothing about it at the end of that time. Governor Merriam posed for a remarkable photograph one afternoon, cutting a huge cheese with a huge knife, solemnizing the opening of National Cheese week. Can Alpha cut a cheese? Alpha has his points, undoubtedly, and he might make a good Governor in most states, but never in California as long as Mr. Merriam lives. If Alpha ever challenged Mr. Merriam for Governor m California they would tell him, and quite rightly too. to go and get a reputation. (Copyright. 1934. by United Feature Syndicate. Inc.l
