Roosevelt's swing to the progressives has been so pronounced and manifested in so many places that it has driven away the blues which afflicted liberals during the year in which the president flirted with big business. potatoes. Currently, they’re moaning about the appoint- of Assistant Secretary of Commerce Dickinson as it attorney generel in charge of anti-trust suits. Dickinson, they say, used to be counsel for the “Sugar Trust” among his other activities, and associated with the big Wall Street corporation law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell (which recently drew a $75,000 fee from in their fight against the public utility holding companies “When he was a little fellow he never asso-| bill).

Francis B. Condon, a Democrat, to become a member of the state su- preme court. Since Rhode Island has only two representatives in the house this election should afford a fairly good cross-section of the state’s sentiment on administration policies.
