Bartlett Medford, Oregon On Main St. Medford Dale Flowers IN HIS NEW HOME whips have given up, discouraged, during recent weeks when trying to get "the boys' into line. On the Republican side of the fence, the votes, of course, have been cast against the New Deal. But1 the Repubicans have rarely taken the offensive in fighting proposed legislation. Instead, they have fol lowed the plan laid down by canny Majority Leader McNary of Oregon, and let the dissenting Democrats ; make the nose and carry the burden. of the fght. That plan was much opposed by some Republicans at one time, and Senator McNary had a hard time keeping his men under control. But he did, and the wis dom of his plan, in the view of hard ened political observers, has been proven. New Dealers cannot say their program was sabotaged by the opposition party, as they could have if Republicans had been in the first line trenches during the fight. CLIMAX NEWS Mrs. K. H.

He did it with a simple body press while sit ting on Carter's chest, and there are many clients who feel that the big cowboy was aided no end by a very quick count. Carter thinks so, him self, and even went so far as to protest to Referee Earl Yoakley. It resulted in the victory for Cow boy as each has won one fall apiece. In the middle event Sgt.

And never, politically speaking, has New Deal power and prestige been at so low an ebb. That, at least, is the opinion ot practically all newspapermen and publicists, including those who sup port the Roosevelt Administration as well as those who oppose it. The President personally may still hold a high place In the esteem of the people. But some of the most im portant of the “reforms” and ‘ ex periments” which he fathered have fallen on extremely evil days. In the words of Time, the Presid on the ent has recently taken “a series of with its undeclared blows such as no President of the White House. The Administration's "» e 1 f-liquidating'* U. S. ever suffered and survived.” $ 1,000,000,000 First blow w-as the strong congres- lending and spending program was atonal fight against renewing his a mere shadow of itself after it had powers over money, The President run the gamut of congressional re side-stepped this, and won the round solutions and amendments.

This session Repre sentative Dempsey went to work and forced it out into the open. Gist ot the till is to make it illegal for any federal office-holders, with cer tain exceptions such as the Presid ent, his aides, cabinet members, etc., to use their Job Influence to raise money or to influence votes, It is obvious what this means to any fed ii means eral political machine. that political control will largely de- part from Washington, to become centered in state capitals and other local subdivisions. It means that comparatively few federal Jobhold ers will be delegates to the next Democratic namlnatlng convention, where close to half were at the last convention, It means that the Pre- sidents direct power over the Demo cratic party has been greatly re duced.
