Show jpEM-GENEVA TIMB3 S A RESULT of the recent elec-A elec-A tions, politics is In the air In Washington, with Republicans somewhat downcast and Democrats Demo-crats jubilant over the outcome in New York state and in other off-year off-year elections. Both parties accepted the New York election, which pitted ex-governor Herbert Lehman against Sen. John Foster Dulles for the seat vacated by Sen. Robert Wagner, is a test of issues. Lehman was squarely for the Fair Deal program pro-gram of President Truman, and Senator Dulles squarely against the program, with Lehman the decisive de-cisive winner. As s result, the Republican high command may change to middle-of-the-road opposition to Democratic proposals. Gov-. Gov-. ernor Dewey was defeated on "me too but do it better" pro-. pro-. gram, and Senator Dulles tried the direct opposition method. Both failed. They point to the middle-of-the-road course of Governor Driscoll of New Jersey, Jer-sey, reelected as conservative y liberal, and to the campaign of Senator Ives of New York, also s conservative liberal, who defeated Governor Lehman for the senate in 1946. Pointing to the campaign being made by Senator Taft in Ohio as winning friends, the Republicans may adopt a "semi-liberal" stand for the 1950 elections. At any rate. President Truman is at the height of his popularity which strengthens the morale of the Democratic organizations in the large cities. That these organizations organ-izations need strengthening is seen in the defeat of the Curley machine in Boston and the Hague machine in New Jersey. The Democrats are planning to wage a strong campaign for farm votes, especially in the Midwest, and will make strenuous efforts to capture the votes of small businessmen. business-men. Despite victories in New fork, which add a senator and a congressman, and in California, Cali-fornia, which gives another congressman con-gressman to the Democratic majority in the next session, the congress convening in January Jan-uary will be essentially that naccry Longlegs If a leg of Daddy Lwglegs is seized, he merely sheds it and scurries away on the remaining seven.

Unless these congressmen come back to Washington with different viewpoints after consulting the home folks, the President will have about as much difficulty enacting the rest of his program. The President Presi-dent will win more of his program, but not all. The President was given a standing stand-ing two-minute ovation when he attended and spoke to a nationwide nation-wide meeting of the National Conference Con-ference of Christians and Jews at the Mayflower hotel at a luncheon kicking off the drive for Brotherhood Brother-hood week in February, 1950. With a new record cotton production pro-duction of 15,524 bales predicted for 1949, Secretary of Agriculture Brannan has announced a 1950 marketing quota of 11,733,750 bales and a national acreage allotment of 21 million acres in a move aimed at reducing the 1950 production by at least 20 percent Dr. Willard E. Givens, executive execu-tive secretary of the National Education Edu-cation Association, said that in the coming decade 1,300,000 new school teachers will be needed. The demand de-mand for new elementary school teachers will be about 100,000 annually, an-nually, he said, while only about one fifth of that number is being prepared each year. He pointed to the fact that, while average salary of all employed persons rose nearly near-ly 105 per cent between 1940 and 1947, salaries of school teachers increased only 66 per cent and that average pay of school teachers is far below what could be considered professional compensation. This in addition to toe few and obsolete buildings and other school facilities, is placing plac-ing a tremendous drain on state and local taxes. Add to this a tremendously increased enrollment, and it is likely that in many urban centers only half-day schools will be held. There is expected tremendous pressure in the next session for federal nid to schoo!.-, and chants are good that the school a!d program pro-gram will pass. The $300,000,000 bill already has passed 4he senate but was held up in a house committee. commit-tee. It may be that the figure will be increased by house action.

Po So ASKITO o IIDailieCamm "l-'-jtfl AlL.M-, POWER OF A CHALLEKGE THE POWER of a challenge! I have sung t long about that before; I sing it again. A challenge will move otn peopta to action quicker than anything else. John E. Arnett of Prestonsburg, Ky., is tha f I to him but the other said that he already had a I ti ' I pocy in tne company and that he had been i . a LmJk rejected by another company. There was no use in filling out an application blank. That D. Carnegie seemed to be the end of it One day Mr. Arnett went to the store and wrote up a policy for the man's partner. Just then Mr. Ratcliff , came in and the partner said, "Tom, why don't you get in on this and have a policy with this man?" "No need. They won't write me," he answered. "I won't even consider the idea. Besides, he has already talked to me about it." Then it was that Mr. Arnett did some quick thinking. He decided to approach him on the ground of a challenge, so he said, "You know Mark Twain said that a difference of opinion is what makes horse racing. Well, you and I have a difference of opinion." "What is that opinion?" asked the other, mystified. "It exists as to whether the company will pass you or not,w answered Mr. Arnett. "I'll bet you $5 that I can get you a policy at the standard rate." "Do you really want to bet?" asked the other, his interest immediately challenged. "I do." "Fill out the form." Mr. Arnett did not know whether or not his company would accept the application, but he reasoned, "You never can tell till you try." The medical examination was made, the papers forwarded. A month went by, then Mr. Arnett glided down the street, a letter in his pocket. Entering the store, he said, "Tom, you remember what you said about horse racing?" "Yes," said the other, wonderingly. "Well, there are two sides, but only one winner. Five dollars, dol-lars, please." The other man was delighted. Mr. Arnett had appealed to him by throwing down a challenge.
