A man bitter in political feeling, but still with aspirations to lead his party. Fe is Alfred M. Landon, the G. O. P. stand- ard bearer of 1936, who night before last stepped back into the political picture, reasserting himself as head of his party, and pouncing on the Roosevelt adminis- tration with fault-finding abandon. There was evidence from Mr. Landon’s remay/.s that time had not tempered his defeat of last fall, nor had it broadened his viewpoint. There was nothing constructive in the platitudes he hurled at President Roosevelt and indirectly at the majority of the American people. There was no suggestion for improvement or offer of helpful counsel in steering the ship of state. But rather, the utterances were those of an embittered man, seeking titular glory but apparently unmindful of the fallacy of his previous course or even of the sentiment of many of the people within his own party. " Mri Landon said he has been silent for because “good taste and good government that an elected official be given an opportunity to establish policies which he promised the voters, but now the time has come to act.” So the former standard bearer acted in loud words, and the tone of his words indicate that during that year of he has brooded over his defeat and now wants to start out his party where it left off so ingloriously a year ago. From the Landon remarks there is reason to believe that the Republican party has gone on toward re- construction and left Mr. Landon- standing at the post, brooding, just as on a previous occasion it at- temptéd to pull away from Mr. Hoover only to have the latter resume control and throttle it down to ultimate defeat. To the credit of the Republican party it should be said that a majority of its members have been pulling away from reactionary doctrine and attempt- ing to bring the party principles in line with modern conditions, but apparently its leadership is determined not to profit by former mistakes.
