Dew Reversal of Form Has Benefited Roosevelt The nearest comparison in political history was Woodrow Wilson on foreign policy. Elected on a "kept us out of war" issue in November, 1916, he asked congress to declare war the following April. But that case is really not comparable for the simple reason that the election intervened between the two hapThis reversal of form penings. which has benefited Roosevelt so amazingly has occurred before the selection of a single delegate to the DUPLICATE Prescriptions ... " xMri u st ternational LENSES BROKEN ey to win enough support from elements now opposing him to land the Republican nomination for president? The answer to that is a very positive "Yes, but." For no one can say at this moment that he will not, and no one can say that he will. If you listen to conversation among the group most determinedly against him the big campaign contributors you might be sure that he could not possibly bring them into camp. If you believe that, the whole story is told. It will not be possible for Dewey to win enough politicians to his banner enough of the men who will actually control delegates after the first few ballots at the Republican convention unless he first wins over at least some of the big campaign contributors who now are strongly against him. But conversations with a few of the wise old politicians who have visited Washington since Dewey made his Minneapolis speech convince this writer that the door is not closed. To get the picture clearly you must realize that the Republican politicians are pretty desperate. If they should think, six months from now, that Dewey was the man most likely to win of all the candidates before the Republican convention. the objections they are voicing now would melt away like a morning mist before a strong sun.

The men who criticized the President so bitterly just a few months ago for wanting to take a step-emb- argo repeal which they insisted would endanger the neutrality of the United States are now urging Roosevelt to go further with his un- neutrality as between Russia and Finland. They want him to slap Russia down. The whole thing puts g Requite a few of the publican leaders in a very silly position indeed. To appreciate the full significance of the development, however, it must be remembered that there had been two tremendous build-up- s in this country affecting details of the whole development. Most important was the growing conservative resentment about the alleged "Reds" and "Communists" in the Roosevelt administration. It was these who were blamed for the "purge" against senators who opposed the President on the Supreme court issue. As Talking Machine' Reappears music.

President Roosevelt's slap at Soviet Russia for in-to vading Finland, plus his proposaldebt help the Finns with their own payments to Uncle Sam, is flabbergasting the bitterest of New Deal critics.

It is one of the most extraordi nary reverse plays in the history of politics, especially as it comes on the eve of a presidential campaign in which the main issue will be whether the New Deal shall be continued by Roosevelt himself or someone satisfactory to him. Various side plays add to this strange situation. For example, Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan, who opposed repeal of the arms embargo to keep the United States out of foreign entanglements, is now demanding that Roosevelt break relations with Stalin, recall the United States ambassador to Moscow, and, by in ference at least, take a step to Kai-she- k, d - ... than half of Mor osed in ":cA T Old age benefits atisdstfisfri uremach I", f tl "" i ; h , fey CARTER e .
