The pathetic, thing In journalism,
as in politics, is the lack of names
that the people know. Millions of
Americans read newspapers with no
faintest conception as to the char
acter of the man whose newspaper
they read. It might be called "an
onymous nonentity.'' There are ex
ceptions. '" The most Important and influen
tial newspaper by far, in propor
tion to circulation. Is the so-called
"country newspaper," smaller dall
ies and weeklies.
Their' readers know who runs
them, and those readers, not liv

opener, buy everything from the
paint on the roof to the cement In
the cellar floor, from the piano and
radio In the sitting room to the
car In the garage.
Berlin says the Nazi party plans,
forcibly, tn buy out nil Jewish firms

over, but what about running It?
Anybody may buy a business; mak

Ing the President's continuance, In
office. ': It has gotten so- little pa
tronage that It Is InconsequenUaL
On the contrary, most Tammaay
leaders feel that It was Roosevelt
ana James A. Farley who were re
sponsible for Tammany's not hav
ing the tremendous New York city
patronage at the present moment
For it was a Roosevelt lieutenant,
Joseph f4 McKee, who ran with
the tacit . blessing of the White
House and the more open support

been . almost lis friendly with La

many. -When Roosevelt Was' gov

Tammany never held this against
Roosevelt Its leaders .are, always
practical, They knew there 'was
nothing else Jtoosevelt could do, un
less be abandoned ill hope of be

to pick a fight with Tammany has
always been good national politics.
It does not' hurt A. President to
oppose bonus payments, r But Just
as generally it is . believed that
voting . against anything the sol
diers want Is little short of sui
cide .for a senator or member of
the bouse.
, This theory may or may not
be accurate. . It has never been ade
quately tested.
But whether opposing the bonus
contributed or not, the senators and
members of the house who attempt
ed to stand by Presidents In oppos
ing the bonus were killed off by
tneir electorates one after another.
Curious Complication
There Is another curious compli
cation to the present situation, Sev
eral senators are known to have
told the bonus lobbyists that they
would vote to .override President
Roosevelt's veto', If that one addi
tional vote would out It over. - This
Is not Just patter by the lobbyists.
Two senators, whose names' the
writer is not permitted to mention,
have confirmed such reports. Thev
told ' bonus workers later that If
It could be demonstrated next time
that one more vote .would do , the
trick, they would produce.
'At least two such senators, tell

would probably have to "vote with

is always the last vote before elec-
