WASHINGTON. In a recent poll of Washington correspondents by Newsweek it wee disclosed that a heavy majority of the news writers in the capital think that President Boosevelt will be renominated, and that Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan win be the Republican nominee. The poll was confidential as to the views of any individual correspondent. So that the writer for the most partisan Republican organ could express his view freely that Roosevelt would be nominated and elected, whereas the correspondent for the Daily Worker could predict the nomination of John Nance Garner by the Democrats, and of James W. Wadsworth by the Republicans if that is what hs wanted to say. There would be no repercussions. This makes the poll a most Interesting topic for conversation, and presumably a fair cross section of the views of the men whose occupation it la to be expert observers. Anyway they are being paid for it Furthermore, this writer takes no exception to the list of correspondents selected by Newsweek for this poll. He is rather effectively barred from such criticism because he was one of those polled! Yet the odds of the only beta the writer has heard about as to the nomination of Roosevelt for a third term are three to one agalnstl Whereas, It is almost impossible to conceive events between now and next July which win make Senator Vandenberg's stand against repeal of the arms embargo In the extra session helpful to his chances. Actually the writer agrees with the majority of correspondents polled that the nomination of Roosevelt by the next Democratic convention is likely, despite the third-terissue. Yet there ia no denying that most recent indications, especially the swing of the left wing New Dealers to Paul V. McNutt, are to the contrary. Convention Situation Might Force Roosevelt The question 1s whether the convention situation will not be such that Roosevelt win have to take the nomination himself, or see it go to some candidate who might not carry on the New Deal policies. The 'smart money is apparently on the side of hie stepping down. But some at that "smart money la known to be Gamer money, and this writer is far from being alone in saying that if it is to be Gamer or a third term, Roosevelt would go for the third term. As to Vandenberg, there la no doubt that personally he la better known and liked by the Washington correspondents polled than any other candidate. Personally, the writer egreee again, but the cold logic would indicate that at leait three men have a better chance. These are Thomas E. Dewey of New York, Gov. John W. Bricker of Ohio, and Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio. At the present moment subject to change without notice, downtown New York is for Bricker, and, probably unalterably, atrongly against Dewey. This is something to be reckoned with, for downtown New York ia very potent in two ways. It's where the big campaign contributions come from, and socially It ramifies through the country. Big frogs from hinterland little pools are Impressed beyond an rhyme and reason when little frogs hi the New York pool confide their political opinions. And when the lady frogs in New York emit words of political wisdom, sound or unsound, it has an even greater effect on the lady frogs from the hinterland pools. Power V. S.

It was based on the fact that the Soviet produces a very large portion of all the gold that the United States treasury is buying from the rest of the world. Actually Russia stands second in the list, with the British empire first, but Russia has been gaining and hopes to become No. 1 gold producer before long. But the only purchaser for this gold, running well into the hundreds of millions of dollars, is Uncle Sam. NoHe pays 939 an ounce for body else, practically, is buying any. The proposal of this expert was that President Roosevelt, with no fanfare of publicity so that the Soviet authorities would be embarrasses let the Stalin government know that if the Soviet govern it Federal Court Rules Hotel TEMPLE SQUARE Oppaatta Manaia Tnapla HIGHLY XEC0HXENDKD Ratal $150 to 53:00 IPs a rnaik of diitinctiae to stop at this beautiful hettsliy EBNEST C.

He points out that there might be some embarrassing consequences, in that the net result might be to freeze gold, and thus add another handicap to world trade. But this, he insists, would be worth the cost Scheme Would Not Cost V. S. Government e Dollar One attractive part of the scheme, he explains, ia that it would not cost the United States government a dollar or the risk of one life. AD it would cost would be such exports as this country is now able to make to Russia, and for which Russia ia paying in gold. This country could till sell to Soviet buyers all that they could pay for in goods. The only complication would be that it would no longer take gold. The wont complication about the plan is that it would require considerable scrutiny to prevent any Russian gold finding its way into our bands and yet at the same time not interfere with the British selling us all the gold they could produce. While there la no disposition to change the present gold policy, under which the United States, alone and virtually unaided, is pegging the price of gold at $35 an ounce, even if it were suddenly decided that this program should be abandoned, it would not be stopped until after the preaent war is over. This is the first time that any suggestion has been made to use the enormous subsidy power at this gold buying to coerce other nations into a line of conduct which the United States could approve. . B ADVENTURERS CLUB The drive is under way again. A gullible reporter in Washington will be told by all sorts of public power functionaries that it doesnt mean a thing that it was a purs coincidence that Dave Ulien-thal- , John Carmody, John Rankin, George Norris and Harold I ekes have been laying down barrage against the electric companies. No one in high command, it la asserted by the underlings, pressed any button that ended the truce which many neutrals had hoped would work a permanent peace. But it doea not take a very cynical mind to conclude that there are Just too many individual actions, and Impending actions, and that they an fit together too precisely into a pattern, for the whole conglomeration to be banditry instead at an organized military operation. The timIt came ing, also, is important on the eve of the final data for "integration at the holding companies under the death sentence, being administered now by Jerome Frank of SEC. It comes Just a few weeks before the scheduled beginning of the monopoly committees probe into investment trusts tied up with the utilities. From this last incidentally, tiie utility baiter hope for great publicity from the big names associated in the public mind with Wall street which they expect will be flashed on the front pages of every newspaper in the country. The strategy is even clearer when one realizes that the new congress will meet in January right after the public has been thoroughly shellshocked by, first, the wickedness of the power barons, via the T.
