By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. P. A
foremost financial advisory service
told Its clenta confidentially a few
days ago that
present v e n t a
Indicate Senator
Borah will be the
Republican pres
idential candl-
data in 1938.
That would not
mean much to
you unless you
happened to
know that, on
the Inside, the
prediction really
came from a top
most Insider In
ran) Mallon
the Hoover administration who Is
ven yet closer to Hoover.
How much It means, after you
know that, also may not be clear.
Tha natural suspicion will be that
Hoover's ex-rlghthand man reflect j
the unspoken thoughts of the Sphinx
of Palo Alto. If true, that would be!
Interesting, particularly In view of
the Incompatibility of Borah and:
Hoover during the latter days of the j
Hoover administration. I
Shortly after the backstage Borah j
boom waa launched, Representative
CulkJn of New York arose at a Re
publican county meeting there and
aald : "Bertrand Snell, minority lead
er of the house, looms aa the Re
publican party candidate for Presi
dent." '
Mr. Culkln might aa well have
launched hla boom confidentially, be
cause all the notice he got waa three
paragraphs on page 18 of the New
York Times.
But that makea two Republican
eandidatea who have been pushed out
on the stage now, whether anyone
knows about It or not.
Snell is one of the few Republicans
atlll holding a high official position.
Everyone hae expected for some time
that ha would be put forward seri
ously by bJa friends.
But the mention of Borah has a
more Interesting origin and back
ground. Even some of his enemies
in the Republican party have been
thinking for a long time that Borah
la the strongest man that could be
nominated In the existing situation.
The Republicans want the farm atates
back, and Borah ia the logical man
to get them. He la leading much ol
the most serious opposition to the new
deal.
Yet those who know Borah most
Intimately are convinced he will not
eonsent to be drafted. Inwardly he
la mora anery about the Republican
setup than he la about the new deal.
A rather widespread organization of
young Republicans haa clustered
around him out through the middle
west. He would like to fan them
Into flames, but whether he would
care to undertake a presidential cam
nuien in his 71t year (he Is 69 now)
Is another question. He certainly
f would not consent to be a stalking
horse.
There haa been more Inside than
outside criticism about President
Roosevelt going olf to Hawaii for such
a length of time while a more-man
seasonal summer slump was In pr3
For this reason the President will
spend leas time at Hyde Park and
Warm Springs than he had planned
for the next four months. However,
similar criticism cannot .legitimately
be made regarding excursions to those
two places, aa he usually takes the
capital with him when he goea.
The price-fixing featurea of NRA
will be restricted measurably after
Mr. Roosevelt returns. That angle ol
the NRA will be gradually abandoned,
eliminating auch criticism aa Senator
Borsh has been making lately.
This action will be stimulated by a
report due shortly from Mr. Roose
velt's secret cabinet committee, ap
pointed to go into the legality snd
advisability of federal prlce-tlxlng
meaaurea. The report will advise
against price fixing.
' The unofficial boycott against Ger
many seems to be working. Imports
to this country from Oermsny de
clined a million and a half dollara In
June, In comparison with June of the
previous year. That waa a decline of
about 30 per cent.
Up to June, imports from Oermsny
were much large thl year than last.
France, our main default debtor,
has. In the past 11 months, doubled
her exports to this country (wine and

Bagdad Flight Attempt Is

Bad Weather Encountered
in Flight Over Atlantic
LONDON, Eng., Aug. 9. (AP) The
Trail of the Caribous landed here
today after a flight of 30 hours and
55 minutes from Wasaga Beach, Ont.
The 'Trail of the Caribou," flown
by James Ayllng and Leonard Retd,
hopped off from Wasaga Beach, Ont.,
at 6:13 a. m. IE. S. T.) yesterday.
The filers had set out to establish
new long-distance record with
Baghdad, Iraq, as their objective.
Their landing means that they only
covered a Uttle more than half of the
6,300 mile they had set aa their ob
jective. The Canadian airmen set their
black biplane down on Heston air
field after covering approximately 3,
700 miles.
They were sighted at 4:5fi p. m.,
G. M. T. (U:55 a. m. E. 8. T.) over
Stag Lane airdrome.
Their rapidly diminishing supply of
gasoline forced the fliers to chsnge
thslr plans and to decide to land in
England. Reld said.
They brought their plane down on
a private flying field In Middlesex a
short time after they circled over
the Hendon airdrome on the northern
outskirts of London.
The fliers, who landed without no
tice to watchera below, were running
Into Increasing unfavorable weather,
"It was a wonderful trip, but we
surely are disappointed we couldn't
continue on to Bagdad," Reld said. I
"We had bad weather most of the
way across the Atlantic. Then the
controls jammed several times.
"So when the gasoline aupply
seemed to be dropping we thought It
best to land."
"Anyway, we're glad' we landed
safely," Reld added.
