Show THE BULLETIN fll tH 8f 111 Washington. It is curious hnw trade winds blow in politics. We, here in rhenomenon ton, have Washingjust wit- in PolittCM nessed what can well be called a phenomenon. It (rows out of the primaries in two widely separated states, Florida and Pennsylvania. The fact that it was a Democratic primary in each instance, however, makes possible this analysis and discussion of details. Taking up the primaries in their order, there was the primary in Florida where Sen. Claude Pepper, 100 per cent New Dealer, indorser of Townsend old-apensions, and himself indorsed by James Roosevelt, son and secretary of the President, licked the pants off of his challengers. He polled more votes than Rep. J. Mark Wilcox and former Gov. Dave Sholtz combined. It was, without doubt, a New Deal victory for which the President can claim justifiable credit. The second primary was that in Pennsylvania where there were three candidates for the United States senatorial nomination among the Democrats and three for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. There were two candidates for the Republican nomination for each of these offices, as well, but that fact will be treated later. Few party primaries in modern times developed the bitterness that flamed in the Democratic test in Pennsylvania. It was the first time that organized labor, as such, had come out into the open with avowed candidates and it was the first time Democratic National Chairman Farley has taken a hand in attempting to tell the voters of a state what to do. In addition, there was a state party committee which insisted upon selecting a slate of candidates in regulation boss fashion. So there were all of the elements of a rough fight, and it happened according to ford Pinchot, who, like Mr. Kennedy, was approved by John L. :wi5 ana nis U. l. U. as acceptable. So again, the voters took things into their own hands and their state committee selections wr taken nn where the voters liked the man. cut. to eet back to the nrpmiee UPOn Which I started, it has heen most interesting to note the veering oi uie political winds. Shortly after the Florida primary, there was a hurryine for cover hv rinvnna nf Democrats in the house of repre sentatives. They thought they saw in those results a rain? acraln tn the New Deal, a restoration of the rresiaent's popularity. New Deal did spokesmen around Waahina-tnnot let any grass grow under their ieei. mey used the Florida results to advantage. In good political fashion, they whispered and hinted and sometimes said out loud that the boys who went aeainst the New Deal would get their spanking. Ana to their credit, it must be said they did a good job. For example. I am convinced the virions wages and hours bill that was locicea so securely in a house committee would never have heen brought out except for the reaction irom me f loriaa primary, seldom, ii ever, nas there been so much haste in si miner a netitinn for re port of a bill as was observed in me case oi tnat legislation.

Maybe the Florida vote did not involve clear-cNew Deal issues; maybe it was Pepper's machine, maybe it was this and maybe it was that anyway, their thoughts were running: Maybe Pennsylvania is a better barometer. And each one is analyzing that vote in an effort to apply the result to his own district Whatever their conclusions are, there is one thing definitely established. Organized labor's most ambitious political effort flopped. It was washed out of the road. The Pennsylvania rout of organized labor of the John Lewis brand is made the more significant because of the link with the White House disclosed through Mr. Farley's indorsement of Mr. Kennedy. It may be, of course, that President Roosevelt did keep hands off, but it is quite another matter to convince the average person that the White House was not involved. For one thing, the Pennsylvania results seem to show that the John Lewis claims of political strength can be discarded as so much hooey. Another thing to remember about the Democratic primary results in Pennsylvania projects itself into the future to 1940, to be exact The victory by Mr. Jones in the fight for the gubernatorial nomination destroys the control of Pennsylvania Democrats so long exercised by Senator Guffey. He cannot be called the boss again under any stretch of the imagination. And when it is time for election of a successor to Mr. Guffey, the best political judgment available predicts Mr. Guffey's disappearance as an entrant As to the 1940 projection, attention ought to be directed to the fact that prob ably Mr. Jones, and not Mr. Guffey, will determine what Democratic presidential aspirant shall have the great block of 72 votes in the national convention. This seems certain whether Mr. Jones wins or loses the race for governor. He is established as head of the party. All of the indications now perceptible promise an alignment of the Jones faction, now controlling, with the more conservative group nationally. including Sen. Pat Harrison, Vice President Garner and men of that type. So, it is seen that the Pennsylvania primary can, and is almost certain to, have an important reaction on national Democratic ut harmony." He asked them to nominate Governor Earle for the United States senate. Governor Earle was the choice of the state committee faction. Mr. Farley also asked that the Penn-sylvania- na nominate Lieut. Gov. Thomas Kennedy, secretary-treasurof the United Mine Workers, for the governorship. Mr. Kennedy was thrown overboard by the state committee but he had the open indorsement of John L. Lewis, head of the C L O. labor union. He also had the backing of Sen. Joseph Guffey, who has constantly served as President Roosevelt's voice in the United States senate. The Farley thus cast out recommendation Charles Alvin Jones of Pittsburgh, state committee selection for the governorship, and it threw Mayor S. Davis Wilson of Philadelphia into the discard as far as the Democratic senatorial nomination was concerned. Mayor Wilson was a Lewis-C- . candidate. I. The Farley announcement, made on the day before the primary, built up resentment even from the men he indorsed. Governor Earle barked loud and long; so did Lieutenant Governor Kennedy. Mr. Earle won. Mr. Kennedy lost Mr. Jones won, and shouted about it. Mayor Wilson lost and bellowed about the interference. And after the smoke cleared away, Mr. Farley said promptly, in effect, "Let's all get together and elect our Democratic candidates." er John D. M. Hamilton, Republican national chairman, wrote a ment while the was coming up on the day following the primary. He bounced biting words right off of Mr. Farley's head. In substance, he said the Pennsylvania primary showed: 1. The voters of any state resent interference from the national headquarters as regards their party nominees. 2. The voters of Pennsylvania showed they will have nothing to do with John il Lewis, despite the fact that probably that state is the most tightly organized for the C. I. O. of any state in the country. 3. The Democrats of Pennsylvania are tiring of brains" of the Roosethe "crack-po- t velt administration. Mr. Hamilton, further, called at tention to the fact that two present Democratic members of the house of representatives were defeated for renomination. Representative Stack, an admirer of Father Coughlin, rad ical radio priest, and Representa tive Crosby, author of Townsend plan bills in the house, were supplanted. The Republican chairman sought to connect their defeat with a trend away from radicalism which he says is inherent in the New Deal. because Mr. Stack sometimes went beyond New Deal ground. Now, as to the Republican battle: James J. Davis, present senator, was renominated over G. Mason Owlett, backed by the Republican state committee, and Judge Arthur II. James was nominated for the governorship over former Gov. Gif- Biting Words at tempt" in the day before, the polls were taken.

On the other hand, most fats have such a high coefficient of digestibility, that under normal conditions only about of the fat eaten escapes diges tion. Experiments indicate, for example, that the coefficient of digestibility of oleomargarine is 97.55 per cent. It is sometimes erroneously stated that pastry is indigestible. This statement is without founda tion, provided the pastry is made from a high grade shortening and is properly baked.
