In his letter Dr. Hedges asked
each graduate if he thought that
he was taught at A. A M. the pro

chemical engineering ex's would
■end specialists to lecture to the
A. 4 M. society
Dr. Lindsag, a new professor in

C. E. He reminded the club of the
competitive prises to members for
the best work done in designing a

ment, and about the certificate to
the eophpmore chemical engineer

1940. This is so do matter what his
purpose may be^ whether to nom
inate a successor to himselr, or to
have himself nominated for a third
tern, or to transform the political
parties into Rb. ral and conserve-
tire. Presumably, be will want to
work through the Democratic party
convestion. t fi • • i-.
Now we come to the nob of the
matter. Mr. Roosevelt is not omni
present He is one man, with two
hands and one head and a capacity
which has limits. Therefor* he must
rely upon assistants. Assuming that
he wants to control the Democratic
machinery in 1940. upon what as
sistant must he rely most heavily?
Obviously, upon Mr. Farley. Now
Mr. Farley is almost Politual Ma-
ehinery incarnate. Pnesumably be
ha* some sort of economic and so
cial philosophy, |ut I do not know
what it is. He sehms far more con
cerned with the: means by which
elections are w#n than with the
purposes to whici» the victories are
to be put I J nj.
Mr. Farley at present is meth
odically pursuing his vocation -and
I do not mean the management of
the Post OfficeJHe It engaged in
trying to elect every Democratic
nominee. The election* this .gM
will have an important affect upon
the control of fhe convention in
1940. Mr. Farleyl is amMag no dis
tinctions, however, between “lib-
eml” Democratic* sad “conserva
tive” Dekaocrats. Be says the or-
gtnitation certainly will not sup
port any Republican*, whether they
M* "liberal" Kepubticaaa or “con
servative." In ,*hort, he has no
sympathy with the purpose of the
PlueUdot, although he is largely
the means of ferrying it into ef
fort.
A situation tjasicaDy like this k
not unusual, although this may bt
an exaggerated case. It k a nearly
perfect illustration of the way ah
