Harmony Hint
WASHINGTON, Juno 13. (AP)
President Rousevelt sometimes
uses a handshake or a pat on tho
shoulder to demonstrate his sup
port of a candidate, but Senator
tilllotto (1)., Iowa) got a five-course
luncheon nt Urn white hbuso. ;
Tho two men talked over yester
day the Iowa primury election lu
which tillleito defeated Rep. Weur
in, whom several administration
advisers had favored.
Their meeting provided a broad
hint lo Iowa democrats that the
president wanted harmony In the
party. Oilletto suld Mr. Roosevelt
congratulated him and predicted
his election over former Senator
L J. Dickinson, republican.:
Tho lowan's visit to tho white
house stirred speculation nn the
question of how far tho adminis
tration would go In supporting nntl-
Roosevelt democrats who might
win senatorial nominations.
Although Cilllelie fought the
court bill, ho roileruted his faith
in tho president throughout the
primary campaign, declaring at
tho same time ho was "no rubber
stump."
Consequently somo democratic
leaders have contended his con-
tost ngalust Wearin was not so
much of an administration test as
anti-court bill senators will pro
vide In a few states this summer.
Eight oihor democratic opponents
of that mensuro are up for renoinl
nation and somo of thdm.;;couKts
tently have fought . prosTdoitllal

If those men win out, politicians
here are asking, will tho president
