Nearly 26,000 pounds of beef was distributed free to the poor of the Irish Free State in a recent week. The Democratic National Congres- | sional Committee has started a secret poll of Democratic members of Con- gress to determine sentiment in their districts toward President Roosevelt's preparation for the 1936 campaign, |F according to an Associated Press | copyright story. Accompanied by a letter saying| the next campaign means “much to our party and to ourselves individ- | ually.” a questionnaire containing seven questions was sent to the Demo- crats by Representative Drewry of Virginia, chairman of the committee. The first three questions read “What, in your opinion, is the re- mction, personally, to Mr. Roosevelt in your district?” “What is the reaction to the carry- ing out of the administration's policies?” Can Roosevelt carry your district?” | Asks Summary of Conditions. The remaining four questions ask the Democratic members of the House their chances for renomination and re-election, for a summery of political conditions in their districts and whether the committee can help them. This is the first time in the his-| tory of the Congressional Commit- | tee, which generally confines its ac- | tivities to seeking election of nomi- nees after primaries, that it has con- ducted a poll so far ahead of a cam- Ppaign Several Democratic members, ques- tioned today about the poll, said they threw the questionnaire into the waste basket In his letter to his colleagues, Chair- man Drewry wrote, in part Adjournment of Congress may not be long delayed, and most of the members will be away from Wash- ington. We then will be on the eve of a campaign which means so much to our party and to ourselves indi- vidually. The Democratic National Congressional Committee desires to be of assistance to you, and I want to &olicit your co-operation to that end. Welcomes Suggestions. “Your committee, planning for the next campaign. wishes to know of con- ditions in your district and how to serve you most effectively. You are best qualified to answer this, and 1 will appreciate if vou will supply a | furvey of the political situation in! vour district. with sufficient data to sustain your point of view. Moreover, 1 will appreciate any suggestions you think might be helpful to the com- mittee. I am inclosing a memorandum, not for the purpose of having you confine your statement to the matters men- tioned, but more with the idea that | your reply to this statement will be supplemental to your general state- ment of conditions in your district” Drewry also wrote that during Con- gress’ recess he would carry on the committee’s work activelv in prepara- tion for the 1936 campaign PHONES DI 4868 -4869 -29.
