THIRD TERM ISSUE
The European war thus far has stolen the show away from
politics and except for the precedent-breaking lemocratic con
vention last week, which came during the lull in the fast-moving
war, the public has taken little interest in politics. 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.
