in, the remainder of the campaign ‘on. the third term issue and Mr. Roosevelt's foreign policies, with special attention to the Triple Axis Alliance. Totalitarian spokesmen explain the agreement among Germary, Italy and Japan to move Jointly against a neutral attacking any of them as a warning to the United States. Both candidates have denounced Axi, objectives and leadership and both emphasize their determination to avoid war. The nation’s overwhelming approval of material! assistance being given Great Britain —destroyers, airplanes, guns and ammunition—is convincing evidence that aid would continue to be forthcoming to the British regardless of the winner on election day. American voters with Axis blood ties, therefore, will not be able to choose on the theory that one candidate or the other is publicly committed to more or less aid to Great Britain. But there are hun- . dreds of thousands of Germans, Italians, Poles, Czechoslovakians, Austrians, Scandinavians and Brit-ish-born who must make. a choice on some basis if they are to vote at all. Italians comprise the largest foreign born group in the United States according to the last census. There were 1,799,000 of them then of whom 629,000 were in New York State.

Complications Arise After Operation in Hospital at New London, Conn.

| NEW LONDON, Conn. Oct. 1 (U. B.).—Complications following an operation for an intestinal cbstruction caused the death of Col. F. C. Harrington, 53, Federal WPA Commissioner, last night at Lawrence and Memorial Associated Hospitals. | Mr. Harrington, who was named commissioner in December 1938 to succeed Harry L. Hopkins, was stricken about two weeks ago while visiting his brother-in-law, William Rayburn. He was operated upon Sept. 23 and his condition was considered favorable until Sunday. With him when he died were his children, William, a Yale student, and a daughter, Eleanor. Col. Harrington was a native of Bristol, Va., and a graduate of West Foint. He served during the World War as an engineering instructor, and after the armistice was an engineer in charge of maintenance at the Panama Canal. Later he joined the War Department general staff at Washington and was promoted to colonel in 1939. He was made an assistant to Mr. Hopkins in 1935. Mr. Hopkins and Howard Hunter, Deputy WPA Commissioner, arrived here after he died.

at the outset, there comes the time of compromise with the practical powers. The Willkie crusade entered this stage—a bit later than usual—when Wendell L. Willkie ate a few harsh words and invited Joseph N. Pew Jr., the multi-millionaire Philadelphia oil man who is the most potent financial angel of the G. O. P., to confer with him. On his special train, the Republican candidate sat down with the lanky Mr. Pew, who is the key boss of doubtful Pennsylvania. The two

had indicated toward the other and sealed an offensive-and-defensive

velt and for the glory of the G. O. P. It’s Willkie Retreat

It was a retreat for Mr. Willkie. He has been making much of his avoidance of old-line G. O. P. influences. Before his nomination, Mr. Willkie was quoted by an interviewer in a Pennsylvania paper as saying: “I do not like Joe Pew’s brand of politics.” Questioned about this statement when he arrived for the Philadelphia | convention, he said he stood by it. The Pennsylvania delegation at the convention was one of the most reluctant toward Mr. Willkie. It hopped the banddagon on the sixth and final ballot after standing staunchly by Governor Arthur M. James—but too late, for already Mr. Willkie had coliected the necessary majority. Took Another Siap at Pew

The Willkie people made no secret of their pleasure that Mr. Pew was late and that they owed nothing! to him. | During the seething controversy in New York and Washington over | who should be national chairman, Mr. Willkie again took a slap at Joe | Pew.

The Pew and old guard groups were insisting upon Felons) tion of John Hamilton as chairman. | Mr. Willkie held out and named | Rep. Joseph W, Martin (Mass.) Republican leader of the House, who, | with Alf M. Landon, had allied him- | self against the Pew group. - Asked at. that time whether he] had seen Mr. Pew, the Republican; candidate replied: “No—and that's of it.” John Hamilton was relegated to the job of running Chicago headquarters.

not the half

Now It’s October

All of that was in June. Now comes = October—with the election five weeks off. At Buffalo, Saturday afternoon, Mr. Willkie dispatched a telegram to Mr. Pew and Jay Cooke, Philadelphia financier and Republican candidate for the Senate, inviting them aboard. The hand of John Hamilton was clearly . recognized. Bpbth men insisted to newspaper-

that Mr. Willkie had invited them, that the candidate had taken the initiative, They wanted this understood. Mr, Willkie talked a long time with Messrs. Pew, Cooke and Ham-

Delightful, Pew Says As he left the train at Syracuse,!

Mr. Pew described the meeting as |

“very interesting, satisfactory and] delightful.” They had covered all] Pennsylvania problems, he said, and “everything is in fine shape.” He ‘expressed ignorance about any unkind remarks by Mr. Willkie concerning him, Mr. Willkie thus allied himself with the G. O. P. machine in Pennsylvania to combat the powerful Democratic machine «in that state. Mr. Pew is potent not only in Pennsylvania but nationally. Mr. Willkie thus observes practicalities of politics.
