It looked as if Vandenberg's goose was cooked. But although the Republican Gov- ernor was soundly trounced and Willkie squeaked through by a still- disputed count of 6926 out of more than 2,000,000 votes, Vanden emerged triumphant with the im- ve majority of 113,464. This is remarkably achievement 1944 WHITE HOPE To many of his friends, ator Vandenbe reelection has revived presidential hopes for 1944 If he does throw his hat in that ring, it will his third try. In 1936 and even more so this year Van was a serious contender. Fur- thermore there are plenty of politic- jans who will argue that he would have made a much stronger can- didate than either Landon or Will- kie Whether Vandenberg will be in the running by the time 1944 rolls around is conjectural. Four years is a long time in politics. But one thing is certain: the name of Van- denberg will appear often and prom- inently in the list of top-round Re- publican possibilities. He has the facully from behind and W final stretch. Also, he has all the external requirements of a standard- bearer. Four years ago at Cleveland Van- denberg could have had the vic presidential nomination on a silv platter.. At Philadelphia last year he finally threw the Michigan dele- be of coming up bandwagon rush that put Willkie over the top. So, given the right breaks, Vandenberg might make the grade in 1944. views and made several attempts toj argue the matter with him. But Willkie dodged these attempts | to convert him; and once, when he came to Washington after his nom- ination, failed to show up at an ap- pointment. On another occasion he did not answer one of Vandenberg’s letters for weeks. Naturally, this did not improve relations between them. However, Vandenberg went loyally down the line for the party standard bearer and made several effective speeches for him. The personal coolness between Vandenberg and Willkie was not an exceptional case within the GOP. It was the rule. Willkie was on cor- dial terms with few Republican lead- ers, as exemplified by the remark of Representative Clare Hoffman, an- other Michigan Republican. “When Willkie was nominated,” said Hoff- man Girdler: ELDER STATESMAN There was a period during his first years in the Senate when Vanden- berg took no popularity prizes among his veteran party colleagues. The young Michigander was piqued at the way Senate leaders disregarded the younger members, and organ- ized a group of them in order to make their influence better felt in the inner councils They didn't sit well with Republi- can veterans and Vandenberg got hazed for his pains; especially by the razor-tongued George Moses of New Hampshire, who derisively lab- eled him the “Young Turk.” Several years later, Vandenberg fanned up some more resentment when the word got around that he ‘You nominated him, now !you elect him.” was retly gunning for Senator Charl McNary's scalp as Floor | It is this anti-Willkie sentiment Leader.
