Although not the only president to seek a third term. Mr. Roosevelt will break a 150 year tradition should he be elected in November. So far Roosevelt has been able to dominate his party, not only in the fact that he was named as its standard bearer, but the fact that he was able to dictate his choice for a running mate. Whether the third term issue will be the major issue in the November election will depend on the European developments. Many believe that America will move just that much nearer a dictator should Roosevelt be chosen for another term as presi dent and that perhaps should the world continue to absorb the totalitarian idea, this will be the last presidential election we shall have, at least for a number of years to come.
