But the New Deal high command would rather die than admit this. Ballyhooed to unmanageable pro- portions, it began to collapse six months ago, and is today in a very. bad mess. Failed of its objectives, with its personnel shot to pieces; its more anxious to get from under, its policies lost in the shuffle, its prestige gone, and its or- ganization in a state of eonfusion, it ap- | important men pears a wreck.” POLITICAL WIDOWS Some discussion has been going on re- garding the growing tendency of widows of public officials who die in office to as- pire to the places thus made vacant. It might seem unchivalrous to decry the practice, but there is no doubt that the election or appointment of women to offi- cial positions under such circumstances has often been detrimental to the public serv- ice. On the other hand, it is also true that some of the women thus selected have per- formed their official duties acceptably. But, taken asa general proposition, there is much to be said against a can- didacy for office based upon sentiment alone. If the woman aspirant is really qualified in her own right, there is no reason why she should be discriminated against. If she is not so qualified, she should not have the place sought. It is doubtful that any of those who have been elected or appointed to high: office to succeed their husbands would have been chosen on the strength of ability alone. In practically all cases sentiment has dictated their selection. In some instances women have been elevated to offices from which their hus- bands had been removed through impeach- ment, or conviction for crime. In such cases the wife ysually has been merely the instrument through which the discredited husband has continued to exert his former power and influence. : { At best the selection of capable and honest officials is difficult enough. difficulty should not be increased through appeals to sentiment in behalf of candi- dates of either sex who are unfitted for the offices they seek. | PROFITLESS WARS (Orlando Reporter-Star) The Ameri an Legion has a plan which would | take the profit out of war.
