In the current political melee
In this state consider the plight of
the ambitious politician. He want
either a job or political power or
both. His success depends not
alone on his own ability but on
the victory of the one whose cause
he espouses.
Consider the fct mat republi
cans for the first ttme in 16 years
have a good chance to capture the
presidency. Then reflect on the
mount of patronage which will
be handed out by the president.
No wonder the mouths of aspirants
water as they think of the possi
bilities. Theoretically postmaster
ship, have ben sterilized by civil
service but you can count the
number of republican nominations
to first-class post offices c:i your
Tingers.
If one doesn't want a job like
collector of customs he may want
to be in position to name the one
who gets the job. Patronage con
trol is a powerful tool in the kit
of the politician. Usually party
committees are the ones to dis
perse patronage; but a safer guess
would be that the campaign mana
ger in tne state lor uewey or oin
en would be the one first
con-
suited" if either one becomes pres
ident. No politician want to be on the
outside looking in at the political
feasting. He want a place inside.
He may be satisfied with a seat
st the foot of the table, but he
wants to move along to the head
ss fast si he can edge or force
his way.
Hence the. nervousness among
many who have pinned on Stas-
sen or Dewey buttons. Is my man
roinff to win? If he isn't can I
"
cal 1
witch buttons and not be too
back In the other line'
The fortunes of the political
wars affect not only the princi-
jj ;
hut those who are "on th
mke" those who know that
politics the sword of defeat is mer
ciless. And after 16 long years
what s disaster it would be to
guess wrong and still be out In
the cold!

Harold Stassen. But Just maybe.
Because the state Friday has an
unprecedented election of its own
