Energy and thought designed to favorably present various candidates or to effecUvely present pol itical ideas for Inclusion in the literary document known a. The platform’ seem like a large order of unnecessary exercise For the candidate and the platform, when finally selected, are designed for a single purpose the winning or securing of political patronage, ad vantage and position. . . The Republican convention is an example that might be used in measure Before, during and after the political deliberations, from which Dewey and Warren came forth as the winning candidates, hours ot radio time dissected, scrutinised and surmised the goings-on. Blan ket coverage of all stations except the smaller ones replaced pro grams which radio addicts sorely missed. And the sum of influence that the network splurge occasioned seemed to be, mostly, that people other than Republican partisans realised there was a lot of noise to herald the fact that a couple of candidates were being selected. But what contrast the current Democratic convention! There are many sidelights to the doings at the 1948 convention city, Philadelphia. And many a repercussion will be felt between now and November, because of these doings. The determined talk of replacing President Truman as a party standard-bearer has succeeded in widely disrupting once bold ranks of Democrats. That it was talk is highlighted by the fact that per sistent attempts to “draft” an opposition candidate only brought forth refusals by such wanted men as Elsenhower and Douglas and only the tiny voice of Senator Claude Pepper saying, “O. K„ I'll run. You talked me Into it,“after someone reportedly suggested the Florica firecracker for the Job of stopping Truman. Pepper was once fondly regarded as a liberal. He was even sug gested as a running mate for Henry Wallace, in the new party. With his offer to put his name in the ring, "to keep alive the Roosevelt tradition", it proves out that the presidential bee did slip under his bonnet and he was only awaiting the proper circumstances. The Roosevelt tradition, this year, has come in for quite a belab oring. One of the Roosevelt sons .assuming an inept role of pres ident-maker, had spearheaded a drive to boot Truman from his seat of power and only succeeded in emphasizing his political ineptness when the dark horse he was grandly grooming thumbed his nose at the race. The Republican convention took so many cracks at the Roosevelt tradition that it seemed FDR was still around, waiting for his turn at the microphone to blast and level the forbidding bogeymen so built up, with a few incisive remarks. The Democrats, with their bickering and disunity, seem a far cry from the surging strength that so inspired the voters during tne Roosevelt era. In the uninspired, slogging spirit of its convention, the difference is shown. Come what may by the tides of politics before the next presidential election, one fact is now stratified: "The Roosevelt Era is Dead!” Mrs. MacDonald's Home Cooking AMERICAN LEGION BLDG.
