PAGE THREL LOOKIMT WASHINGTON By Hugo & Sims, Washington Correspondent REVIEWING THE CAMPAIGN WILLKIE STARTS SlJOWLY f RUNS HIS OWN CAMPAIGN SPEAKS OUT ON DEFENSE OUTLINES HIS POLICIES ROOSEVELT'S STRATEGY pUTCOME UNCERTAIN With less than two months to go before the voters of the United States go to tne polls in the 1940 Presidential election, there is a na tural tendency everywhere to assess the campaign up to this time. - The writer of this weekly column, which is published in newspapers of every political complexion in the United States, has no desire to take the side of either candidate. Natur ally, .it is impossible- to please ' all readers and all editors. Consequent ly, -he does not make the effort. An objective study of the development of the campaign up to this time re veals some interesting facts and, for what they are worth, should be recorded The reader should understand that this estimate of the campaign is written before Mr. Willkie began what he considers his campaign. It is written before there is much op portunity to appraise the effects of the President's radio talk of last week. Consequently, observations and comments which are made are based up6n signs which have appear ed before the middle of September. Following his nomination at Phila delphia, Mr. WHlkie took an extended vacation and while he was undoubt edly proceeding with necessary con ferences and lining up certain fac tions in his support, he had few oc casions to make the news. In fact, he busied himself "whipping intd shape" the organization, consulting with party leaders and dissentient Democrats, and, no doubt, preparing himself mentally and physically foi the campaign ahead. Early in September, there appear ed indications that the campaign was not going along as smoothly as many Republican leaders had hoped. Party spokesmen referred to "crossed wires" and outlined plans to develop proper liasion work in order to pre vent undue emphasis upon differences of opinion between the nominee and some members of the party. A con ference at Rushville, Indiana, is said to have smoothed out these wrinkles and spokesmen of the party, buoyed by the Maine election, appeared to regain much of their optimism. Mr. Willkie, it i3 plain, intends to be the master of his own campaign. Despite advices from many quarters, ; conscription of industry, was sup he does not hesitate to speak his ported by nine Republican Senators views upon important issues. His. while only eight were in opposition Willkie feel certain that the Repub lican opposition to President Roose velt has no alternative but ,to support him and this, he believes, permits him to be himself, reveal his views and direct not only the campaign, but the issues upon which his candi dacy makes its appeal to the people of the United States. Readers should also take cogniz ance of the fact that Mr. Willkie has carefully refrained, for the most part, from all adverse criticism of the foreign policy of the President. While it is true he vigorously criti cized the method of handling the destroyer-bases swap with Great Bri tain, he also took positive stand in favor of selective service and against postponing the effectiveness of the draft law as well as the Senate pro vision, generally referred to as the conscription of industry. The positions taken by the candi date on these issues were in opposi tion to Republican members of Con the nation is not visfble to the naked than by the methods utilized to se-j eye, but some seasoned political ex- cure them in view of the present Y. W. A. TO MEET FRIDAY perts express the idea that valuable time has been lost since the conven tion at Philadelphia. Once again, in this connection, we call attention .to the unorthodox campaign planned and undertaken by Mr. Willkie. He is going to active ly seek the support of the people, making extensive tours and many appearances in an effort to get his philosophy across. It is not alto gether a Republican philosophy. It represents the personal beliefs of the Republican nominee and indicates the course he intends to pursue if suc cessful in his campaign. Just as Mr. Roosevelt has domi nated the Democratic Party since his first election, outlining its position on major issues, so will the campaign of Mr. Willkie prescribe new policies for the Republican Party should it as cend into power next year. Just as ivir. nooseveit laces tne bitter oddo troubled condition of the world.

On the Fish Amendment to postpone the effective operation of the draft law sixty days, which Mr. Willkie opposed, there were 140 Republicans in the expects that Mr. Willkie, if elected, will be confronted with the opposi tion of the bitter-enders in his own party.

So far as surface indications go, however, it may be stated that the campaign of Mr. Willkie does not ap pear to have functioned too smooth ly, if one judges by the surface in given the nation the picture of a busy executive, bestirring himself in connection with the national defense, gaining valuable publicity through inspection tours and. being repeatedly placed in the spotlight by certain events themselves. The consensus of opinion seems to be that serious developments in Europe will enhance his prospects of election. Events transpiring across the Atlantic un doubtedly affects the viewpoints of Americans, and this, in turn, will af fect their baltots. The President, one realizes, took the play by his spectacular trade with Great Britain, which, without doubt, has the approval of the vast majority of Americans. While criti cism of his course in concluding the deal without consulting Congress goes to the method adopted by the President, there is little likelihood that the matter will become a major issue in view of the overwhelming sentiment of the people that it was a good trade for the United States.
