SATURDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 17, 1924 HUNT'S® WASHINGTON S* LETTEKOTi BY HARRY B. HUNT NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON. May 17.—The name “Gillette” in Massachusetts means safety in more than razors. It means safety, also, in Republi can politics. For Frederick Huntington Gil lette of Springfield, who is always meant in Massachusetts when the name “Gillette” is mentioned, has a record of 16 unbroken victories in campaigns for Congress. Being “sane” as well as “safe,” it was inevitable that this long ten ure should make him one of the G. O. P. powers not only in Massachu setts but in Congress. As a result of which he ha presided, as speak er, over the last three Congresses; a dignified, proper, conservative presiding officer, such as might be expected from precise Massachus setts. * » * Now, however, the peaceful cer tainty of re-election to Congress from his home district is to ba abandoned. The certainty of an other term as speaker, in case a Republican Congress is elected this fall, is to be foregone in an at tempt to wrest from David Ignatius Walsh, Decocrat, the Senatorial seat the state must fill this fall. Instead of a gentlemanly cam paign in his home city of Spring field and environs, Gillette must* plunge into a state-wide campaign that promises to be one of the bit terest and most bloody battles waged in New England since the Revolu*' : on. * * * Gillette is notmaking this change whollp from choice. As speaker of the House he has more power and parquisites than he would have as a simple senator. But with Calvin Coolidge, the fa vorite son of Massachusetts, lead ing the Republican national ticket this year! the posibility that Walsh a Democrat, may win re-election tc the Senate is enough to throw G. 0. P. leaders into chills and a cold sweat every time they think of it. •* * * William M. Butler, who was first slated to make the fight against Walsh, was chosen by President Coolidge to manage his election campaign. That puts him out of the senatorship race. He will have his hands full with the national cam paign. Channing Cox. Republican gover nop of the Bay State, was then ap proached. Cox decided he didn’t care for the honor. Whereupon Frederick Willianj Dallinger, a member of Congress from Cambridge, announced he would make the race. - * * ♦ Dallinger’s announcement, how ever, didn’t satisfy Coolidge and other party leaders. They doubted his ability to put the skids under Walsh. For one thing, Dallinger is an ardent and active “dry.” Next to Wayne Wheeler and Upshaw of Georgia, he’s the dryest dry in Washington. And while it is desired that the Massachusetts candidate for the Senate be pledged to uphold the constitution, it is not considered necessary for him to single out specifically the eighteenth amend ment as the part to be. upheld most zealously. * * * On the heels of Dallinger’s an nouncement, Gillette was called to see Coolidge. On the heels of his White House call, he announced he would run for the Senate. Undoubtedly, Gillette’s candidacy will have the full support of the old line leadership in the G. O. P. He is the one man with whom they . will feel safe. But even with Gil lette, they admit it may be a clos j shave. Pete is just a common purp, who, some time, must have strayed. He drifted into my back yard adopted me, and stayed. I guess, perhaps, he knew that I was fond of such as he, and he sort of figured he had best get kinda fond of me.

I chatter with the Tittle birds while Pete just stops to whine. Perhaps he’d like to chase them—but he knows they’re friends of mine. > I’ve often wished that Pete could talk; I wonder what he’d say. No doubt, just words of friendship, ’cause he always looks that way. His eyes do more than give him light; they give me light as well,, and they make me understand the things tiiat Pete can never tell. Just dog—that’s Pete—and yet to me he means more <in the ,en<:' than camouflaging humans, for he really is my friends. No credit I AM DOING ALL KINDS OF ELECTRICAL WORK NO JOB TOO SMALL OR TOO LARGE.
