David Lawrenee. Virgini ift irginia Rif Stores Up Trouble Glzss May Prevent Tammanyizing of State Politics. Today's dispaich discusses the attitude of the people of Virginia, the thirty-eighth State to be vis- ited by David Lawrence in his per= sonal survey of the political situa- tion in €0 States. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. ICHMOND, Va,, October 27.— President Roosevelt will carry Virginia by a substantial ma- Jority, but there's a first-class revolt brewing here which may result in two or three years in capturing the State for a new party known as the Jeflersonian Dem- ocrats or the transfer of polit- ical power to the hands of the Re- publican party § because of the growing split in the Democratic ranks. Had the Jeffer- sonian Democrats gotten under way & year ago and obtained the nec- essary funds for erganization work in every precinct, the electoral vote of Virginia might have been decided this time by a much narrower margin, and it possibly might have been won by Gov. Landon. But fundamentally the cleavage be- tween the New Dealers and the tra- ditional Democrats has been confined to a relatively small number of per- sons, though the Jeffersonian Demo- erats have stirred up much more dis- turbance politically than their numer- {cal strength might seem to indicate. The significance of these trends, however, does not lie in the present campaign or election alone. It has a deep-seated meaning for the future. It explains why Senator Carter Glass, the greatest of American statesmen of today, must remain silent so far as making speeches for or against the New Deal is concerned and yet cast his ballot for President Roosevelt. Prevents Rubber Stamp. ‘The veteran Senator's position is not at all dificult to understand and even to agree with if one has the slightest knowledge of Virginia politics. Outside the State many persons have eriticized Senator Glass for not bolting his party. They who do 30 do not realize that a bolt this year would have meant the election of a rubber-stamp Senator from Virginia to add to the tools of New Deal manipulation in Congress next January. Supposing, for instance, that Glass had announced that he would not eupport the President in a party sense. What would have happened? Opinions will differ, of course. but | the New Deal would have encouraged s really strong candidate in oppo- sition. While Glass has extraordinary strength and might have won the primary, his followers throughout the State in the Democratic organization would have been subjected to severe | trials and tribulations in a political way. Thus Senator Harry Byrd, who does not come up for re-election for four years and has for a long time been the most influential man in Virginia organization politics, has a fight on his hands now. His wing of the party is being undermined by James Price, who has the backing of the New Deal. In the governorship fight next year there will be a battle between the Byrd forces and the Price faction. Battle Lines Formed. ‘The lines are being formed for it now, The New Deal with its use of patronage and public funds has the means of winning over some of the Jocal organizers and workers, the way party organizations are built up or broken down—with Federal or Btate patronage. ‘To win an election nowadays, espe- eially in a State like Virginia which has 30 long been & one-party State, §t is necessary to have organization. The Republicans have never built an effective organization for the national ticket here because they have not been able to set up a good State organiza- tion to wage an opposition fight on State and local issues. More than ever in America, Federal and State political organizations are intertwined. Senator Glass has staunch friends in the Democratic organization who have gone down the line for him throughout his long ca- reer in public life. He cannot now turn his back on his lieutenants and supporters. To do %o is to expose them to factional attack, and since neither Glass nor Byrd stand in with the New Deal, they do not have available Federal favors to bulld up their own political fences. Fight Tammanyizing State. As a matter of fact, Harry Byrd as Governor of Virginia made a great record and his popularity with Vire ginians is undiminished. His fight is purely the kind with which any inde- pendent or progressive would be con- frented in trying to beat Tammany in New York State. In fighting the Fasley influence in politics in Amer- fea Byrd and Glass are struggling to prevent the ultimate Tammanyizing of Virginia, To hold their own organization Intact they must be regular in a party sense, Back in 1938 both Sena- tors were “regular” and did not hesi- tate to excoriate sany who left the party to vote for Hoover. against Al Smith. Today the position of Byrd and Glass is fixed by the precedent of their own party fidelity of 1928. But this does not prevent them from developing & Democratic organization and a party platform in the State which contradicts the New Deal and pesasserts true Democratic doctrine. ' Repudiation Stressed. Incidentally, Mr. Roosevelt recently fas furnished the Byrd-Glass pro- greasives with the best argument they could have had for sticking to their guns and keeping the fight inside the Pemocratic party rather than stray- ing outside. Editorial prominence, for {nstance, has been given in the Lynch- burg News, owned by Senator Glass, to the way Mr. Roosevelt has repudi- ated the Democratic party nominees of the Nebraska and Minnesota pri- maries. Organization Democrats here areéi ehagrined over the action. They regard it as an exampie of the lengths to which a presidential nominee will sometimes go to advance his own politieal fortunes at the expense -of' bis party. 5 Glass has therefore made no speeches about the presidential con- test, He will east his ballot for the straight Democratic ticket because he owes Allegiance to his party in this State and becsuse he believes the 2 News Behind the News “Accord” of Hitler and Mussolini Viewed as Prep- aration for Next War., ’ 8 BY PAUL MALLON. HIS week Mussolini is holding out the olive branch. Last week it was ths bayonet. Next weck it will probakly be both.” His talk 1s indicative only of the fact that world statesmen alternately talk peace and war with no real intention of having either. Mussolini's current olives are stuffed with the usual pimento. His son-in-law was simultaneously Berghof, the Hitler hideout in Bavsria, flattering the German leader. The son-in-law and the Fuehrer approved what was advertised as “an accord with Rome,” although their anti- Fascist opponents are calling it an incipient Italo-German alliance in preparation for the next war. The pith of Mussolini’s purpose was thus apparent to all. b * * Ok % The Mussolini-Hitler persifiage resolves itself down to the most QALS important question confronting G’ world peace. How far are Messrs, Mussolini and Hitler going to- gether? The answer may be more encouraging than you would sur- mise offhand. At least official peace promoters around here think 30, They count on two things to keep Mussolini and Hitler from be- coming too clubby. For one thing, o no German of the present generation will be able to forget that Germany had an alliance with Italy once before, but Italy ran out on it and joined the allies in the World War. Frankly, the Germans have not yet come to trust Italians. Next, there is the personal fjactor. Two Babe Ruths mever play well on the same team. Babe Duce copyrighted this modern dictation business, and all diplomats will agree that he is the bigger man—that is, all will, except Hitler. Babe Fuehrer has let insiders suspect in many little ways that he considers himself the peer of the great internatiomal femce-buster. Mussolini will not like that. So while the two Babes are pals in @ common cause of security and in @ common purpose against communism, they will probably not let their hands stray far from their pistols, or their eyes from each other.

Poll Intrigues Statisticians Digest Figures Provide Rich Field for Those Who Like Arithmetic. BY MARK SULLIVAN. O ARITHMETIC-MINDED per- sons, the Literary Digest poll is an enchanting lure. The aver- age person pays attention only to the figures at the bottom of the columns, the number of ballots for Landon and Roosevelt. But the de- tailed tabulation, 23 released to the newspapers week by week, permits infinite explora- tion. It shows the number of votes [for each candi- date in each® State. It shows ' the number for both major party candidates; for the s0-called third party candidate, Lemke of the ; Union' party; for ot e e S candidates, including - the Socialist Thomas and the Communist Browder, voters who are grouped as “others.” The tabulation shows, in most cases, how the voter voted in 1932. From the figures on this last point calcula- tions can be made showing the “switches” which are taking place, the trends, from Democrat in 1932 to Re- publican in 1936, and vice versa. Fur- ther calculations bear on the impor- tant point of how many of Lemke's third party votes are coming from for- mer supporters of Mr. Roosevelt, and how many from the Republicans. All this constitutes a mine of data tempting to persons adept in working out intricate percentages, and making deductions therefrom. To the Di- gest's current tabulation, add the and for those choices of eccentric| are on relief. A further argument is that many of the persons on relief have less permanent addresses, and are therefore less apt to be reached by the Digest's mailed inquiries. To all this, the argument of those who accept the Digest’s poll as ac- curate is much like President Cool- idge's reply to the friend who, on a rainy day, remarked that he thought the rain would stop—to_which the terse Yankee replied, “It always has.” ‘The position of those who accept the Digest poll as accurate is that it has always been accurate before, in the several elections, national and State, in which it has been taken. Digest Quotes Farley’s Faith. In every campaign, those who are pleased by the Digest forecast regard it as felicitously authoritative. In every campaign those who are disap- pointed raise question of its accuracy. Since the Digest poll has now gone on for a considerable number of cam- paigns, many persons have had the experience of applauding it in one campaign, reviling it in another. One of the humors of the present campaign is the reply which the Digest was able to make to New Dealers who revile or “pooh-pooh” the present poll. The Digest dug up from its files & public comment by Democratic Chairman Farley, made in 1932, in which year the Digest poll forecast an overwhelm- ing landslide in favor of Farley's party. In that situation of 1932 the Republicans, of course, questioned the accuracy of the Digest poll. To which Mr. Farley replied with great firmness that no poll taken on such a scale as the Digest's could possibly be wrong. Headaches Due November 4. Of the other Nation-wide polls, some confirm the Digest. But the most gen- erally discussed of the other Nation- We, the People New Deal Even Angles for Chinese Vote, on Theory Every Little Bit Helps. BY JAY FRANKLIN. “Chinese vote” is not likely to decide many doubtful States, since it totals up to about 100,000. The Republicans have cynically claimed four-fifths of it f/r Landon, on the thsory that Orientals get the short end of relief. But every little bit added to what you've got makes just a little bit more, and the Democratic National Committee has bid for the support of the Chinesg electorate in a broadside which wanders pretty freely into foreign and domestic politics: “Re-elect President F. D. Roose- velt for President (it reads). “Greatly extend the airlines be- tween China and the United States, “Increase commerce between the two countries, China and the United States. “Better the relationship between the Chinese and the American mer- chants. “Cast aside vexatious laws and obtain equal treatment, “Promote a high standard of living for women, “Change for the better the working hours of women. “Respect Chinese sovereignty as an independent territorial whole, “Maintain the “open door” policy. “Do not recognize Manchukuo. “Purther friendly relations between China and the United States. “The Democratic party is striving for the election, and indorses the political views of the President. You who have the franchise please vote for President Roosevelt to be returned to office.” * ok k¥ Secretary of State Cordell Hull is getting pretty embmussed7 by the flying leap at his coat-tails made by such erstwhile de- serters as James P. Warburg and Dean Acheson in their rush for the Roosevelt bandwagon. Some New Dealers even entertain the dark suspicion that these last-minute conversions are designed to hurt Roosevelt. Por Jimmy Warburg did as much &s any man in America to hold up before the public the current Republican cartoon of F. D. R. as an unstable, shallow, shifty politician, who would do anything for votes. And Dean Acheson not only was bounced from his job as Undersecretary of the Treas- ury for trying to block Roosevelt’s gold-purchase policy, but entered a profitable legal practice representing those big business interest which were trying to hamstring the New Deal in the courts. The question of what to do about men like Warburg and Acheson was, however, settled over 2,000 years ago, when the Roman people were fighting an eminent “economic royalist” named Hannibal. A certain ally of Rome who had sold out the fortress of Arpi to the Carthaginians later tried to sell it back to the Romans. The Roman patriots were all for making an example of the turncoat, but Fabjus, the grand old man of the Second Punic War, remarked that if an Italian was free to go over to Hannibal but not free to come back to Rome, it would not be long before all Italy was Carthaginian. He recommended keeping the renegade in the cooler until = the war was over. So they bought the fortress, jugged the turncoat, and it was quite a long war. Headline Folk and What They Do Martin Johnsons Back With New Stories From Borneo. BY LEMUEL F. PARTON. NE Saturday night in Kansas in 1310, Osa Leighty, 16 years old, sang heart-throb songs in a moving picture theater. Backstage she met the proprietor and married him the next day, Ever since that day Mr. and Mrs. Martin Johnson have been roving and have had virtually no quiet home life.

Interview Recalled. Glass has been importuned by Mr. Penal Farm Is Burglarized. VANDALIA, IIl, October 27 (#).— Authorities of the Illinois State penal glars with a taste for nicotine. The prison commissary was bur- | glarized of 410 cartons of cigarettes, speeches for him. The story of that 24 dozen packages of “roll-your-own” famous interview of a few weeks ago | in which the President flatly asked the Senator to speak in his behalf was not told accurately in the press at the time. Emphasis was placed only on the fact that Glass said he would vote for Mr. Roosevelt. Nothing was published of what actually took place in the conference itself. The reports hereabouts are that the courageous Senator, with a good-natured twinkle in his eye, answered Mr. Roosevelt's request by pointing out that in the campaign of 1932 he (Senator Glass) had made some speeches on the gold question only to have them repudiated by Mr. Roosevelt when the campaign was over. The President is under- stood to have remarked that condi- tions had changed, whereupon it is not disclosed what Glass said in reply, but if he had a good memory for quotations he might have count- ered with a quotation from one of Mr. Roosevelt's own speeches in Fremont, Nebr., on September 28, 1935, when he said: “Methods and machinery change, but principles go on.” 1f Senator Glass ever did make any speeches in this campaign, what could be say? The Virginia Senator did express himself a few weeks ago in a newspaper interview which he has never denied. He said: “The New Deal, taken all in all, is not only & mistake, it is a disgrace to the Nation and the time is not far distant when we shall be ashamed of having wandered so far from the dictates of common sense and com- Best Remedy for Coughs is l'gasily Mixed at Home Needs No Cooking.

As against this, many of the analyses made by profes- sions to the effect that Landon is even stronger than the surface of the Digest poll shows. Apparently the only way to indict the Digest poll is by an assumption— by assuming that for some reason the 10,000,000 straw ballots sent out by the Digest happened to reach an ex- cessive proportion of Republicans. Or else, that of the 2,225,000 voters who replied to the Digest, an excessive proportion were Republicans. Assumed by New Dealers. This in fact is the principal argu- ment made by New Dealers. They say that this year's situation differs from any past one; that this year more than any before the electorate is divided horizontally; that the upper economic level contains a larger pro- | portion of Republicans, while the lower level contains the persons on relief who, it is claimed, will prevail- | ingly vote for Mr. Roosevelt.
