LUMLEY, Master in Chancer*, (ftb. August 3 - 10 - 17) H|a. M. Carroll, Attorney : Woodstock, Illinois FLUXSIAI Washington, August 16 --Political propaganda mills running at full blast keep this town from the summer dolusually follow a Conadjournment. The hired at work sorting ammunition from the Congressional battlefor the early skirmishes. The by these skilled researchers are then woven into impressive speeches to be delivered by political brass-hats at meetings or Over the radio as part of the partisan "education" movement among voters. Occasionally the press releases on controversial subjects bear theft true origin -- the official imprint of the Republican or Democratic National Committee. However, the output of these propaganda factories known in the trade as "canned speeches" are usually shipped to a Senator or Representative to be used under his name as his own views. which have been challenged to take advantage .of a five-month Congressional vacation to stage an intensive drive for recovery are still skeptical of the political future. The Roosveltian declaration as to the type of a Presidential candidate he favors, as outlined in a long message to the Young Democratic Clubs, while not exactly unexpected has a deterrent effect on incentives within industry. It is argued that business would not want to unloosen the private purse strings for a relatively short spell only to be faced with a continuance of the New Deal objectives. Those industrial chieftains, holding that the social and economical goals of Mr. Roosevelt and his camp followers are detrimental to, private enterprise, feel that his definition of an acceptable candidate must be projected and analysed in terms applicable to the 1940 Presidential campaign. It is surprising how the confirmation of a rumor makes business leaders so skittish in launching an enormous outflow of private funds. Every seasoned politician has privately admitted that in event Mr. Roosevelt was not a candidate for a third term it was a 100 to one shot that he would not support a Democratic candidate who could not subscribe fully to the Roosevelt ideals in government policies. Now that the Chief Executive has been a little more explicit on the subject the boys with the money bags are in a dither. They profess to sea extension of government controls over private trade in event the man meeting the President's specifications is nominated and elected. The Republican high command is, of course, unwilling to concede that F.D.R. can name his successor with the possible exception of having the choice placed at the head of the Democratic ticket The conservative wing of the Democratic party has indicated this week that they would like to see their titu. lar leader duplicate A1 Smith's performance and "take a walk" when a _ hia conditions trotted out at the nominating These political rivals are watching keen interest the promised statement from the Department of Justice as to an "official" conception of the actual scope of the Hatch lull. This new law which limits office-holders on the Federal payroll from active par ticipation in partisan fights will probably nip many promising public careers in the bud. The U. S. Attorney General's opinion will not be the last word for eventually the Hatch Act will be tested in the courts. Many workers in the party vineyard may be called upon to take their choice between drawing a Federal salary and cutting away from their party welfare activities. Mr. Murphy, the present Attorney-General, is a politician of no small calibre which may or may not make him bend over backwards in his "interpretation" of the Hatch curb. Truly, the weather is not the only irritation around the Nation's capital. Mailing lists culled from the register of voters in various Congressional Districts are utilized to the fullest extent these days. It is particularly true in the rural districts where farmers are flooded with printed matter fiom Federal agencies and from their representatives in Congress. Each group endeavors to prove that their records make them "friends of the farmer." The theme of their presentation is to demonstrate that either the Department of Agriculture or the Congress have worked with might and main to insure prosperity to the rural dwellers. For instance, R. M. Evans, Administrator of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration <is now on a speaking tour of the Southwest attempting to jusify the Triple A program. He claims that if this alphabetical agency were not functioning farmers would not now receive much above twenty or twenty-five cenxs.per bushel for their wheat. On the other hand Representative Karl E. Mundt, of South Dakota, criticizes the Administration's farm program that "this _ . . _ for "not foodstuffs' and set up a farm p. which will pay them a fair and honest price for a full and complete crop.' If the average farmer to read through the welter of dropped in his mail-box he will have little time in which to handle the chores about the farm. RKDUOI The Safe, Natml Way."
