THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL PORTLAND, OREGON.
CANDIDATES FOR
DIPLOMATIC POSTS
IN 'SQUEEZE' PLAY
, Oregon's &ll-star delegation at
Washington, utterly unlearned In
1 - jm l . .1. d
mentals of squeeze plays; mass for
mation or team work when it comes
to bringing home the pennant in the
political game of patronage, has lost
its chances so far as diplomatic ap-
iwuuineou irum vrcgvu aire i;uu
; cerned.
. This, at least. Is the belief of' political
prophets and tne budding tear or tnose
gentlemen who have turned their am
bltiou eyes towards foreign fands and
THEEE IS DIFFERENCE
-'There is a wide distinction between the
job of minister to Si am. to Nicaragua,
to China or to Tlmbuctoo and that of
collector of customs, fjnited States at
torney or any other federal job the
. jurisdiction of which is bounded by state
lines, especially In so far as delivering
the appointment is concerned.
The federal attorneyship, the job of
collector of customs, of collector of in
, -ternal revenue, of United States marshal
. snd the various other lesser berths which
things federal within the 'state. of Ore
gon. run with the. land," It might be
said, and must of necessity be filled by
the appointment of Oregon candidates.
. But it Is different when it comes to
diplomatic positions, for as to these the
field of ambition is bounded only by the
mere is no more reason, meore ucaiiy.
- for the, . SiameM job to come to an
. HMrnn mh IS, n tA fin fmm fall f Arnla
or Maine or any other of the 48 statea
And. as a matter of fact, candidates
: for all these positions have hoisted their
lightning rods from the sacred soil of
practically all of them, unless the Demo
cratically saturated units of the Solid
"; South are excepted.
And it is also a well known fact to
those who have bn In Washington, or
," in touch with political conditions there,
'' that the delegations of these other
states many if not most of them larger
In nutnbem and arsrreeate DOlitical Dower
nun i nfl rnmmiirpfl rtr tivs I rcini uiih
state have been driving ahead as units
' in behalf of candidates of their qwn.
PtATIKO OWJI HANDS - -In
other words, state delegations from
most of the other states have banded
Awa,Vaw n n t r ,itfni, Ci a unit In
' pressing the claims of particular candi
; dates agreed upon by them. They have
., advanced, and are advancing,- in mass
: formation upon the various cabinet of
flcem deoartments and the White House
'; in support of their, unified demand that
'.' the man chosen by them shall be given
i; the Job selected by them for. him.
. But the Oregon delegation is different,
, Senator McNary is playing his own hand.
Senator Stanfield is doing the same
thing.
Congressman Mc Arthur, Congressman
Sinnott and Congressman Hawley.each
has his own set -of rules and regulations
; and makes his individual plays. Senator
1 McXary has a campaign torn- -reelection
looming 7 ahead of him, -which undoubt-
matters. ' "' ' ".;
Senator Stanfteld and his friends are
not overly . enthusiastic about Senator
McNary's successful political future,
which has its Influence. Congressman
McArthur would like to shift his title
;, to senator and his activities to the other
wing of the Capitol building.
And so it goes, and because it goes
so the hopes and ambitions of Oregon's
' potential ministers to foreign lands are
glimmering. ' . -V .
It is apparent that personal antipathy.
veiled though it may be, and political
jealousies, though they may be hidden
and veneered by outward fraternity, are
, holding the members of the Oregon deie
: gallon back from unity of .action, not
only In state patronage matters, but in
those having to do with diplomatic ap
pointments. . , ,, - .. - u
CAX "PASS BUCK"
Sooner or later, arid as a matter of
course, , the State positions will come to
some of the various candidates not be
cause of any harmonious action of the
delegation, but because the jobs have to
be handed out in the final analyses. But
' this condition does not apply to the
diplomatic Jobs for which Oregon men
are contending and as a result poli
ticians here would be more surprised to
' see appointments 10 uuuiud oiu
here than the reverse. r
" This situation, on the face of it, leaves
.a golden opportunity for "passing the
buck" when the time cornea Senator
McNary can assure disappointed candi
dates that be. "did his darndest," but
that the others would not 'play ball,"
while Senator Stanfield. potential' Sen
ator McArthur and the others each can
do the same, all of which is interesting
now, and may be much more so when
; .vote counting time comes not so very
long from now.
