an argument the other day over the statement that most people believe a permit by the SEC to sell a certain stock amounts to federal approval of the shares inOf course I know that a volved permit by the commission does not The damage is give that approval that people will be influenced by knowledge of such a federal permit They will think the shares are good whether they are or not The wages and

elections There will be a lot of snarlit already has starting as indeed ed There was that recent incident of President Roosevelt messing into an already badly messed Ohio relief situation Facts that situation has since developed indicate that Mr Roosevelt criticized Governor Bricker of Ohio either because the President was given a lot of misinformation or because the Ohio governor is mentioned frequently as a "dark horse” for the Republican presidential nomination There are those recurring de mands by Republicans and some Democrats that Mr Roosevelt announce right away if not sooner than that whether he is going to seek a third term All that is accomplished by that sort of thing is to show definitely how foolish a politician can appear when he talks out of turn Such public statements demand ing that Mr Roosevelt announce are no more ridiculous however than the action of numerous Democratic candidates for their party’s top when nomination they said they are candidates "if Mr Roosevelt does not run" That shows something too It Gathers at the accenting height side of the bodice take care of becoming bust fullness The only trimming is a row of buttons down the front The is a

possible There were no ifs or candidacy ands or buts Will Hope a Republicans Soon Show Signs of Sense And while I am taking down my hair and combing out the bangs I wish that the Republicans would begin to show some signs of sense But here they are: three candidates out and only one shooting straight from the shoulder Senator Vandenberg of Michigan has been riding two or three horses at once He apparently still has a package of liberalism in his pockets and District Attorney Dewey with one speech that I could not understand However I reckon the speech had something in it because a lot of New Dealers made fun of it If they had not been hit they would not have The other Republican squealed candidate Senator Taft of Ohio has tangled a time or two with President Roosevelt and my guess is that he took off some White House bark because he was pretty close to the mark But in the background are a lot of hopefuls who are sticking out their tongues among them former Governor Landon of Kansas who once ran against Mr Roosevelt on a program and platform that he could do better than Mr Roosevelt the very same things that Mr Roosevelt was doing Well anyway folks I think we live may through it That
