in which roosevelt Roos Ovelt spokesmen and a nd democratic catic publicity men have be been en trying to show the country that I 1 governor landon Is not the man who should the be nominated 11 1 I 1 have no quarrel with these efforts it Is 13 the game of politics virtually anything goes it la Is to be assumed that present rep republican abllan maneuvers will be convent rat ily n i 4 few weeks on mr roosevelt p tirso willy I 1 as the democratic eMMI date I 1 in r fact ci one hears bears expressions around washington that for the first time in mr Roosevel ts political career career he Is going doing to be directly under nr just in this connection one can recall that through most of the new deal adal sm of new deal policies and plans i p ie almost without exception cep tion was aar directed ee at roosevelt ap the president himself has been exceptionally free from the type 1 of 0 personal attack that frequently char opposition he has C hid ad I 1 no of the kind of criticism thal in ID the hoover a di min tf and was directed at herbert hoover personally so as we look fit at the campaign picture just ahead of the republican convention vent lon and only a month in advance of the meeting of the democrats at phila philadelphia dolphin where president roose velt ft will be without or op estt in parta party ai q think it can da n be edid sa id without fear of contradict i diat both

the so called old guard of eastern republicans some observers still hold the belief that the selection of senator was not wholly pleasing to the landon forces but be chatas that as it may there has been no particular feeling created by it if it re represents p resents a piece of strategy by the eastern republicans who were dealing with with their problem by remote control they apparently have played into the hands of the more liberal wing of 11 republicans e publicans public ans 4 it Is being predicted rather freely that the oregon senators keynote speech will lean strongly to the liberal iberal side but that stress sound economics the best advance Iii information formation obtainable ab le on senator Bark leys plans I 1 Is s that ilia t lie will devote the bulk of his time on the convention platform to a review of roosevelt accomplishments in the belief i ill alint at sucha such a review will take hla his presentation butof out of the class of a defense speech those with whom I 1 have talked concerning the barkley speech believe lie lias has adopted a smart political course that lie he feels there Is no need to defend anything that has been done and that the record itself Is the thing upon which the democratic party can make a plea for reelection election re of mr Roose roosevelt having observed senator barkley Barkle yin in action in the senate for a number of years I 1 believe I 1 am justified in saying that lie he is a square shooter and a fighter in this respect lie he and senator St elwer the republican keynoter are much I 1 11 ucb the same type of man and therefore if either convention gets oft off on a wrong foot the fault will lie with the convention managers rather than with the proposals offered by the men who are su supposed to lay before the delegates a rough outline of their respective bartys campaign policies concerning the record of the key loters in the senate each stands foursquare senator barkley has consistently battled in behalf of the president and new deal policies throughout mr Roosevel ts administration senator Stol lver has been just as consistent in his opposition certainly senator has been much more outspoken against new deal policies than most of his republican colleagues and much more so than senator mallary BIc Mcl Nary lary for many months washington hns has heard the plaint of business leaders who wanted to tight fight fear socialistic schemes crack down a alakl nd unsound economic policies given birth by new deal brain tr rosters usters but were afraid to do so because U f are retaliation t all atlon 11 almost constantly information has filtered into washington to the effect that if a corporation undertook to oppose I 1 new deal plans vigorously there was as danger that some agency of the government would crock crack down on t b e aluch of this information hns has been 13 n taken by washington Yas hington observers with algrain of salt but a different aspect has been placed on the situation lately it was ys in the senate that a new deril deal democrat senator homer T bone of washington brolie loose with statements that thai seemed to substantiate the fear voiced so frequently by business senator senador bone charged that there was a veritable and organized within the government the buas as most pe persons esons realize Is the secret spy system of the russian soviet and A think no one in this country has a complete knowledge of its vicious character so when senator bone likened the espionage system in our government to the 0 11 he e was making to my mind one oie of the most serious charges yet set leveled at the Roosey roosevelt lt administration of course senator bone haq 11 attacking in this espionage system been use of a feell feeling ng that aliat it might he be used to
