POSTAL HEAD FLIRTS
WITH SENATE HI.OO
WASHINGTON, June 1. A couple
of weeks ago. Ed Rivers, Georgia's
blowsy, ardently new deallst Klans
man governor, vlBlted the White
House to discuss ways and means of
destroying politically Georgia's con
servative Democratic senator, Walter
F. George. The visit made plain the
president's and his general staff's de
termination to strike down George.
And only three or four days ago.
there appeared on Senator George's
desk a brand new, warmly Inscribed,
cabinet-size photograph pf Postmaster-General
James A. Farley.
Because Rivers Is acknowledged
Kluxer, and' for other reasons, he Is
not available to run against George.
As this Is written, the president and
his young war hawks have not found
a suitable man to back, but they are
still shopping around. It can be
seen, therefore, why Jim Farley'a
handsomely friendly gesture toward
George Is a minor, but remarkable
sign of the times.
The sign Indicates what has already
s been recorded here the dally sharp-
enlng and deepening division between
Farley and the White House. Big Jim
dislikes the White House genetnl
staff's revengeful policy toward con
aervstlva Democrats, yet that Is not
the only cause of the division; It Is
fundamental.
Recently, It has been repeatedly
observable. In Oregon, the general
