' WASHINGTON. Nov. 17. The only
cabinet otllcexa who came out of the
election campaign with bigger pres
tige on the Inside
were State Secre
tary Hull and
Agriculture Sec
retary Wallace.
Their standing at
the White House
was always good,
but Is now bet-
B mts-vm ,er- Observers
-JtrA mmuitanUal hear-
1th are conse
r! I quently speculat.
kkJ lng on the possi
bility that the
Roosevelt mantle may fall upon one
of these two In 1940.
If the national situation turns
around to the point where a solid,
level-headed, serious thinker Is need
ed, Hull might seem to be a logical
choice. He Is a low-tariff and high
tax man, well grounded In funda
mentals. However, you do not hear
much Inside comment on hlra.
Most of the presidential associates
are looking at Wallace. The liberals,
within, believe he Is the only cabinet
member who Is eligible, because Hull
In 1940 would be much older than
presidential candidates usually are.
He would be 68.
The Wallace Idea has entered the
mind of too many official person
ages here simultaneously to be re
garded aa Idle- speculation. -Just at
present It seems to be an exclusive
possibility.
Note The big reason Wallace Is
favored other than the obvious one
ts that he Is honest. Originally he wa
too ahy and also too candid to be a
politician. Lately he has been get
ting a great kick out of campaigning
and he has been handling himself
with shlewdness and assurance. Rend
hit recent speeches If you want to
aee how.
An equally logical possibility Is not
being mentioned by anyone. Inside
or out. It la that the next Demo
cratic national convention will re
nominate President Boosevelt, If Bll
goes well between now and then. Ap
parently no one wanU to harbor such
a premature thought Just yet, but It
Is a real one.
The logic of It Ilea In the fact that
only the names of Messrs. Wallace
and Hull are being mentioned seri
ously. Furthermore, If the conven
tion were held today, there would be
no doubt what It would do. regard
less of Mr. Roosevelt's wishes or the
unbroken precedent against third
terms.
