Washington, March 11.— Politicians in Washington are trying to figure out the meaning of the sudden outburst of the Roosevelt third term I m s iiii Imre They regard as e«| «d u lly significant the typewritten memorandum given out by Representative Martin, of South Dakota, after a conference with the president, vigorously defending the third term idea. They have reached the concluaion that the president ienlir.es that the third term movement must lie allow««! to run right on in order to head off the progress of the I mkiiiis of reactionary candidates. The prevailing opinion here remains that President Roosevelt personally w ill go as far as he can to prevent his own renomlnation, hut w ill stop at' nothing to assure the nomina tion of a successor in M<vord with his policies. Rather than Me them euocurnb, many lielloxe that the piesidenl himself, if prn|ierly appmuched, would take a re nomination, providing no other candi date satisfactory to himself and friends is strong enough t<> unite the next Re publican national convention.
