THIRD PARTY
THREAT LOOMS
(Continued trom Pag On)
that fact, on the face of it, pro
vides another reason why the Re
publicans are not likely to nomi
nate him.
Republican strategy would wel
come a strong third party move
ment of this kind, for the general
assumption is that it would draw
many more votes away from Mr.
Roosevelt and the Democratic Party
than from the Republicans. That
assumption, however,, is somewhat
debatable. There is no evidence that
Republicans are any less desirous
than Democrats of getting Old Age
Pensions.
G. O. P. Leaders Warned
The Republican hope is that
around the Townsend movement
there will rally all of the diverse
groups of malcontents, who are dis
satisfied with the New Deal and
distrust the Old Guard. While all
of the polls that have been taken,
public and private, indicate a de
cided trend away from the New
Deal, the Republican leaders who
met here for their National Com
mittee's annual meeting last week,
were warning each other and every
body else against overconfidence.
Mr. Roosevelt's personal charm
and popularity, wise ones in the
Opposition ranks recognize, can
overcome a huge amount of dis
satisfaction with the acts and poli
cies of the Administration to date.
Nothing would be easier than to lay
the blame for failures on under
lings who "betrayed the President's
confidence,"while claiming personal
credit for successes.
One of the underlings on whose
shoulders much of the load of criti
cism is being heaped, particularly
by farmers, and lately by the busi
ness elements, is Processor Tug
well. The President's closest poli
tical advisers are unceasing in urg
ing Mr. Roosevelt to get rid of Dr.
Tugwell, for strategic reasons.
What the outcome will be is still
doubtful.
Among Republican Presidential
possibilites who are out in the open,
Governor London of Kansas is awiy
in the lead now, and gaining. That
he will take the largest block of
delegates to the next national con
vention now seems probable. That
he or anyone else will have a ma
jority on the first ballot is doubtful.

HIGHLANDS HAS
WHITE CHRISTMAS ,
HIGHLANDS, DEC. 24- High

a three - inch snow covering
the ground. The themometer drop

government station three miles south
of Highlands and is believed to have
gone to zero in Highlands.
WELL, THIS IS NEWS
They say it is not unusual and,
therfore, not important news when
a dog bites a man; but when a
man bites a dog. . .well, that's head
line stuff. So, likewise, when folks
from this part of the country go to
Florida in the winter, it is nothing
of great import; but when Florida
folks come to Highlands to spend
the Christmas holidays, that is real
news. And that is the case in this
instance. The L. G. Appleys, of
Coral Gables, are spending the
Yuletide at their home in Highlands.
Highlands is hoping many others
will follow the example of the
Appleys.

CHICAGO . . . Crowning the 1935 Boy and Girl 4-H Crab dwnflitow
this year was difficult enough, even before they came to the "Health"
group. Then the deadlock developed. . . . The scoring was so close that the
judges named seven champions. They are shown in the top picture, reading,
left to right, Howard Cobb, 18, Greene, N. T.; Eloise Garrett, 15, Uriah,
Ala; Frederick Abel, 20, Gadsden, Ala.; Marion McLaughlin, 15, Trenary,

baby plenty of pure water. I ad
vised a very simple laxative that
clearly indicated for elimination.
Then, be quiet please, I recom
mended red onion-juice, a drop on
a little sugar every hour or two!
I just telephoned this hour, be
fore I turned to my typewriter.
"Baby is all right," was the wel
come message. Just a word more
about keeping up elimination through
bowels and kidneys and a caution
about feeding a 3-months baby too
much starches. Also a final in
junction to use just plain horse
sense with the perfectly new young
ster, the pride of the neighborhood.
The incident is closed. I wonder
just how many young mothers and
older grandmothers will pick up a
gram of practical utility out of my
discourse this week.

BABY
My nearest neighbor is a grand
mother since quite recently. Her
youngest son's baby is now 3
months old. The mother of the
infant is not fully recovered from
an exhausting confinement and she
is with her mother, recuperating.
The infant's father is in contract
employment, hence he is away and
hence grandma, with her vast ex
perience, comes in handy.
Two days ago, I was called' by
telephone. "Baby was sneezing,
and the tiny nose was getting red;
there was some restlessness in this
unusually good baby. What to do?"
Did A go into a medical fit and
givemis baby calomel, aconite, and
oilier poisons? I did not. I told
the grandmother to keep that room
at a steady temperature and to give
