Hampshire are over 1,000 miles
apart, Seminole County ts in the
heart of the rock-ribbed Demo
cratic South. New Hampshire is
in the heart of rock-ribbed con
servative New England v
But these wide divergencies of
geography and political tradition
made no difference when the
Democrats of the two places went
to the ballot box to speak their
choice for the Democratic Presi
dential nominee for 1940. They
spoke the same language and the
same name, and the name in thun
derous pccord was: “Roosevelt.’’
Even the conservative United
States News, edited by David
Lawrence, a frequent and often
times severe critic of the New
Deal, in its last issue declares that
the movement to draft Roosevelt
for a third term has become a
bandwagon rush. And in this con
nection, this widely read weekly
comments:
"What causes the bandwagon
rush of the most practical party
politicians to the Roosevelt ban
ner? The practical politicians
want to win the election next No
vember. Defeat in the Presidential
election means the loss of power
in the National government and
the loss of a great amount of pa
tronage. The politicians want a
candidate at the head of the ticket
who will have vote-getting power.
They obviously have decided that
President Roosevelt is the strong
est vote-getter in the party. They
are much influenced by the Gal
lup polls that show the President
to be far outdistancing any .other
man in the party in popularity
with the voters.”
Everyone has read the stories
emanating month after month
from Washington abount a ‘break’
PAGE ELEVEN
between President Roosevelt and
James A. Farley. And now Mr.
Farley in the last printing of his
book, "Behind the Ballots,” off
the press last December, has the
following to say on the subject
of his relations with the Presi
dent:
"To set at rest reports that he
and I have drifted apart over pol
itical quarrels, I wish to state def
initely that I have never left his
presence in anything except the
happiest frame of mind, and haye
never known him to exhibit the
slightest indication of displeasure
with me personally.
