NATIONAL AFFAIRS
By Frank P. Litschert
Possibilities for changes in the
political lineup due to the fight for
and against the President’s bill to
enlarge the Supreme Court contin
, ue to be interesting. There seems
^jttle doubt, whether the President’s
compromise wins or not, that the
fight on the measure is causing
wounds that will be slow to heal
and may bring new and different
alignments in some of our forty
eight states.
For instance, word comes from
New Jersey that Representative
V-Elmer H. Wene will be a candidate
* for governor of the state, a position
which is also coveted by United
States Senator Harry A. Moore.
Here the political line-up begins
to assert itself. Wence is an ar
dent New Dealer and has, so far
as possible, supported all of the
president’s measures in congress.
On the other hand, Senator Moore
has from the start been an oppon
ent of the president’s socalled
court packing bill. Some time ago
it was learned that Senator Moore
will make the lace for governor of
New Jersey with the powerful back
ing of Mayor Frank Hague, of
Jersey City, the outstanHing demo
cratic leader in the state.
Mr. Wene will be backed by the
other United States Senator from
New Jersey, William H. Smathers,
who is a New Deal leader at Wash
ington. Although Mayor Hague
has made no puhl^ifr^ement he is
supposed to be bti^ of sympathy
/with at least a part of the New
Deal measures. Moreover he is a
close personal and political friend
of Senator Moore.
The New Dealer»“af'e said to be
joyous over the announcement of
Congressman Wene as a candidate
for governor as they would like to
^punish Senator Moore for failing to
^line up with the president on the
court fight. With Wene and
Smathers and the New Deal admin
istration on one side and Senator
Moore and Mayor Hague on the
other, the primary fight would de
velop into a beautiful one. Just
what the outcome would mean is
rather doubtful, especially in view
of the fact that New Jersey is
normally a republican state.
At the same time it is reported
that New Deal democrats in In
diana are preparing to punish Sen
ator* Van Nuys for his opposition
to the court measure by refusing
him a renomination. Senator
Wheeler of Montana has told the
senate of political pressure brought
to bear upon him to line up for the
court measure, and political threats
made against him by New Deal
leaders because of his failure to
line up. Other Senators opposing
the New Deal court measure have
intimated the same thing.
Mayor Hague dismisses the
threatened candidacy of Congress
man Wene for the governorship of
New Jersey as a dream due to hot
weather. National Chairman Far
ley predicts the success of the com
promise court bill and denies that
it will cause a rift in the demo
cratic party. Perhaps in each ca^e
the wish is father to the thought.
There is ample indication, however,
that all is not peace within the
democratic ranks and that many
statesmen are now looking for
ward to control of the organization
in 1940. The political situation is
rapidly developing interest. It is
altogether possible that the first
battle will be . waged in the demo
cratic primarries next year.
Two new islands have appeared
in the Pacific. The more Secretary
Wallace works and spends to keep
land out of production the more
there seems to be.
When you think of the power of
the press don’t forget to consider
the number of fellows who behave
themselves for fear they might
get their names in the newspapers.
The average political federal
office holder works so hard to get
his job that when he is appointed
he is all tired out and unable to
do much more.
Utopia is a place where the other
fellow has to pay all the taxes,
where you can sell your wheat for
two dollars a bushel and get a 24
pound bag of flour for a nickel.

According to the story in Genesis
the first thing that Eve found out
after she had eaten the apple was
that she was unclothed. Women
noticed things like that in those
days more than they do now.—

WHY WORRY?
The senate passes the $1,500,
000,000 relief bill without even a
roll call. Why should the boys
worry? It wasn’t their money
they were voting away.—Cleveland

THE REAL NEED
In place of more people per
square miles, what we are looking
for is more square people per mile.
