FOR STILL MAN

TO BEAT IN '40;

All Prospects; ‘It's a Plot,

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times: Special Writer WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.—President Roosevelt: is still the man to beat for the Presidency next year. When you move about the country and talk to’ people—as. I have done’ again recently—the President |! is the'starting point when conversation turns to 1940. ‘And it tums to that very quickly, ‘He is still the big figure in the public imagination. He still overshadows all others in both parties. The war has intensified the limelight about him. “Will he run again?” ‘ That is the constant question, just as it has been for many months. And coupled with this, those who are acutely sensitive to political strategy make the point that someone in Washington, or some group here—whether with Presidential in-

|spiration or not—has-done a splen-

did job paving the way, painlessly, for a third nomination. :

_ Getting Used to Idea

The - parrot-like advocacy of a third term from those about the President, which has gone out regularly for months now, has served to accustom the country to. the idea, they say, so that if the President does decide to run again it won't come ‘as. a surprise. Whether or not some mastermind, expert in public psychology, has been responsible for such a “plot,” there are those who suspect as much, This you find among Republicans and among conservative Democrats. There is another suspicion voiced by Republicans. They concede, first, that the war has revived the Roosevelt glamour. It will keep the country’s attention more or less fixed on him. The President, they say, will not fail to capitalize this situation.

Republicans Anxious

Republicans, it is gathered, are not in the happy frame of mind that they were immediately after the 1938 elections and during 'the session of Congress, when with the help of conservative Democrats they had the President on the run for a while, In the new glow cast about his person by the war, other Presidential hopefuls, both Democrats and Republicans, shine with only a pale

Here and there advance men for the various candidates, both Republican and Democratic, are trying to build up a figure. The search seems to be for a man of glamour. Offhand, young Thomas E. Dewey of New York seems to attract most public interest among Republicans in this respect,

Speaks in Minneapolis

He is to make a speech in Minneapolis Dec. 6, regarded as the opening of his campaign. At a round-table luncheon in St. Paul a typical group of businessmen who eat together every day discussed Republican candidates, mentioning Mr. Dewey, ‘Senators Robert Taft and Arthur Vandenberg and Governor John Bricker of Ohio. It was clear from the conversation that no one Republican has yet impressed himself as a standout. Similarly, no great wave has developed for any Democratic candidate. They are still blanketed under the third-term mystery. People have known about Vice President John Garner and Postmaster General James A. Farley and Secretary Cordell Hull, and are to hear about Paul V. McNutt. Lieutenants have been busy with the politicians, particularly on behalf of the Vice President and Administrator ;McNutt. But they do not shine very brightly while the Roosevelt sun is still high in the heavens. :
