The dealers con eluded that, If their opponents could not etop them in Maine, there is no place else in the coun try where they can be stopped. It gave them thft idea that they do not need to com promise or hedge. They have noth ing to worry about. They can Paul Malion plow straight ahead without particu lar regard to opposition or criticism. You may read the results of the minor election, therefore, in the im mediate economic as well as political policies. Also In the current reor ganization of NRA. AAA and all the other new deal agencies. The more moderate thinkers for the administration are already ex pressing regret over this situation off the record, of course. They think It was too big a Tlc tory. A formidable cpposltlon, In their opinion, is a good thing. It helps to guide and restrain the ma jority. Their concern Is rotted In worry, particularly, about the government spending program. You may not be lieve it, but they are really disturbed about that, far more so than the op position, although naturally they cannot talk about It openly. They have the responsibility of curtailing expenses. They know It will not be popular. They know it also will be more difficult with a flock of pork barrel congressmen on their hands who want five billion for this or ten iHHn for that. In other words, a top-heavy and cocksure majority is going to do nam to handle In congress and out of It. A year ago one of the most promi nent Republican leaders said: "Ynn ran't feed the constitution to a hungry man. Liberty and the constitution are good pomrctu isuu: when the voters have stocks and bonds in the safety deposit box, a good ob. a home and all that. Then a majority of this country wants se curity, and no rocking of the boat. nnr.Aral TTarlpv lm found Out that a postofflce building can be used ?or something besides mailing ienei.

( AP) Blue in color as the deep waters of Oregon's most famous body of water, 200,000 6-cent stamps picturing Cra ter Lake reached Portland today. Collectors were on hand early to acquire supplies and many purchased the new stamps in sheets and blocks. The blue Crater Lake Issue of the national park series probably will see wider distribution than any others of the park series, the postmaster said, because Its use for air mall is per mitted.
