Bosses May Dec ide Outcome of Election | By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington) One little-publicized aspect of the Presidential campaign is the great |reliance placed by the Democratic field marshals on the big-city po- litical machines. In some respects the situation is anomolous. In the public mind Administration has been identified with idealism and the brain trust Its vocal follow- ing is made up largely of those interested in “a cause.” Daily it is indicted by the opposition on a charge of having elevated theor- ists, novices and impractical zeal- ots to places of high responsibility. In the quieter precincts where the political war plans are made, how- ever, sit very practical men in- deed. At several of the most im-| portant salients the tower of Dem- ocratic hope is a political organi- | zation of long experience and def- inite determination. It is not en-| tirely inconceivable that the out- Ropsevelt certainly will bé re-elcct— ed WILL THEY COOPERATE? | Strangely enough when the prac- | tical politicians consider this sit< uation, the question asked oftenest| is not whether the big five among Democratic machines will be able to deliver their states and the Presi~ dency, but whether they will choose to do so. Outwardly ail five are for Roose- velt. But the ways of machine| politics sometimes are strange and inscrutable. Very often a politi- cal boss “rises above party” and puts local considerations ahead of the interests of the National ticket. He/| just conveniently forgets to “put on the heat.” Tammany really Lumed out the| vote for Roosevelt in 1932, but failed | to do so for Al Smitb, one of its| own, in 1928, Now Tammany is| having internal troubles; will it be too much of a strain on those trou- bles to apply the pressure for Roose- velt in 1936?
