J | Washington, Nov. 20 ? Both frieada and foes of the Administration pro fess to find satisfaction, in the results of lihe recent elections in different, parts of the United States. A go <ii deal depends on the point of view, buL the more serious-minded among the President's advisers look on the record of the vote as sounding at le*?t a warning note. The reputation of Postmaster Gen eral Farley a? a political strategist suffered somewhat of a set-back. Ho Biijjeeted the New Deal issue into tfcf New York legislative campaign, na-i that enables Republicans to chortlo over ri'gaining control of *he StaW. Assembly. Since the assembly has been Republican, for 35 vvars except tor the three Democratic ' 'landslide*' elections uf 1910, 1912, and 1934, th.s year's result s would, have attracted little attention if Farley had not chosen to make an Administration is sue of it. IliF consolation is that the tot?l Democratic vote cast in the State was 370.000 more than the Re publican. vote; and that in New York City two Democratic Congressmen were elected to fill vacancies Political opinion here is settling down to the beli.'f that i^ upon the Solid South and (he A_,r:vian W that Mr. RooscV'lt m. s! rely for ro elocion. That is one reason why the Democratic leaders are concerned ovej the rising popularity of Governor Alf Landon of Kansas as a Republi?ai President ial possibility. Admitting that it will be a struggle iin the states east of the Mississippi and North of the Ohio, they do no* like the prospect of going up against a eandidate who would be practicallv certain of carrying Kansas, his horn.' state and whose chance in all the ro~! of the Missouri Valley states would b.: better than that ' f anyone else so far <pni'ior?w4'hy a?)L Eepu^lican group gossip' iff* RepubVJcan circles i) thfre is ah " under-cover" can didate being groomed for the party's nomination in 1936, just as Scnatoi Warren O. Harding was held under cover as a la.-t-minnte surprise can didate In 1920. The gossips say that Senator L. J. Dickenson of Towa ha? pledges of support from twenty or so members of the Republican !vational Committee, and that all over the coun trv party "regulars" arc being bned up for him. Stranger thing- have h p pencil in politics. ' Senator Dickinson's record is clear and clean. Geographically he comes from a pivotal state in the heart oi the most debatable ground in the whole rolion, ai.'I those who know h.rn best say that he has all the quainn of personality and political sagacity which the Opposition candidate of next vcar, whoever he may be, must have. Senator Dickinson wx; tempore rv ?hairman of IW last FwcUicm National Convention. Soiiators and Representatives are b? Rinning to trickle back to Washington most of them bringing reversed ide i? of whmt the folks back home arc thinking and Tshat they want. Ex pressions by many of these to their Washington intimates are taken to in dieatc, that Congress, which will con vene in only a 'ittle more than a month, will show m?re inclination t ? tell the President what lie ought '?> db, than to let him tell them. The out look is for strong resisto'jee to a tr aditional reform legi^at'on, and .i strong determination to put throuuh ? bonus bill. If the teni]?er of Congress can ht gauged by the lalk currently heard, there isn't a ehurce of a iif,w XRA bill, nor a 30-hour week lav, ir. spite of the pressure 4 hat will he exerted by the Labor lobby for both of the. * measures. Likewise, the reports of returning members from the Farm Belt, so far , are that there isr. 'i enough public sentiment behind the Frarier-Lemke farm mortgage green back bill to warrant a fight. for it. SMALL BOY PNEUMOITIA.
