Lehman consented to nin again for chief executive of New York state it looked vei v much as if Thomas E. Dew ey, youthful and successful prosecutor of racketeers. would romp away witk election to that office on the Republican ticket over any candidate the Democrats would be able to find. But so popular is Governor Lehman and so strong1 is his record as an administrator that Mr. Dewey will have an uphill fight in which anything' many happen. If aEt Dewey should win and conduct a successful administration he would be even more strongly in the spotlight for a possible presidential nomination in 1940 than he is now It is no question of a third term with Governor Dehronn he is already serving' that, having been elected in 1932, '34 and '36. The nomination now is for the state's first four-year term. Thus whichever candidate is eV?cted will be in the middle of a term when the 1940 conventions come around . Governor Lehman sharply criticises Mr. Dewey for being willing to leave unfinished the job of district attorney to which he was recently elected in New York City. However the youthful prosecutor's friends will argue that by the time he has retired the James J. Hines case, which in any event should be concluded before the end of the year, he will have done a good term's work. The governor also has pledged that if he is elected he will serve out the foury^ar term. This might require some e^q>laining or convenient forgetting if the Democratic warty nationally should show an inclination toward nominating mm lor Pratoent While there has been no particular boom for Governor Lehman in this ilirection, the executive of the largest state is always in the presidential picture. The greeting from President Rosevelt to the convention shows the New I>eal is glad to have Mr. Lehman on its ticket, notwithstanding his independence in opposing the supreme court plan. The gubernatorial race in New York 3tate may be a small preview of the presidential campaign in 1940 and is at least something of an elimination contest. ?Christian Science Monitor. Fireside Philosophy By C. M. Dickson ft is hard to reconcile the fact (but it is true) that some of the "dumbest" people in all the world the longest tongues. It is probably a blessing that everybody is not afraid of bullets or there would be nobody left to '"cleanse" the temple. If a person possesses the spirit of courtesy and gratiRraNnH',tude and in addition HS^Hhas self respect, ifcjwmany smaller things g i 11 automatically .JgsuB come his way.

Unless a boy can be persuaded to take enough time from his French and English to practice, so far as the athletic stunts of today are concerned, the jig is up with him. The girl who is too "domesticated" to j accept all invitations to long-distance night rides, movies and bridge patties, is likely to miss the thrill of getting in contact with Reno. jt looks like that if the whole country becomes electrified that about all people will have to do is to learn to "press the button."
