The Democrats of South Carolina went to the polla yesterday and renominated him. President Roosevelt went into California, and plainly indi cated he wanted hia "old friend" Senator MoAdoo renominated. The Democrats of California went to the polla yesterday and refused to nominate the venerable solon, in fact pretty much snowed him under and named in his place, Sheridan Downey, ex-Townsendite generalissimo and now advocate of the glamor ous "ham and eggs" plan, $30 a week for every citizen, over 50 years of age I WELL, well we thought President Roosevelt wag going to "BUY" these elections. "We were told as was everyone else that hell bent to become an American Hitler, the President was determined to crack the heads of those who refused to be servile "yes men", pick hia own sycophants and proceed to set up a totalitarian government on the banks of the Potomac 1 Of course with all those billions to spend, and relief to dispense be could DO it. With a chief executive so intoxicated with the sense of power, so ruthless in his methods, so determined to rule or ruin, there was no hope for democracy, the end of the world, the good old 100 American world had cornel TTIIIS column humbly suggested the people of South Carolina, the people of California, the people of Georgia, etc., etc., MIGHT have something to say about it. We failed to see any thing improper, certainly nothing unprecedented, in the Presi dent of the United States, clearly nhowing the PEOPLE why he wanted certain candidates and didn't want others, and leaving it up to them, to decide. The right of free speech, political or otherwise, has been extended to the citizens of this republic for 150 years, we failed to see why it should be denied the President of the United States, or any other man in public life. . . DUT that was the argument. In refusing to lycp silent and taking no part in the congressional primaries, F.D.R. was little better than a modern Benedict Arnold. It was different when Theodore Roosevelt went out to get Senator Foraker of Ohio, and got him; and when Woodrow Wilson went out to get a Democratic congress, to support his war program, and failed. That was before the New Deal and especially before federal control of relief expenditures. But for President Roosevelt to take similar action meant of course the corruption of the electorate. And if such a policy were persisted in, the end of democracy and the final collapse of American institutions. The masses of this country, and the masses determine elections, being paid by relief to vote as the President dictated would not dare to do othorwise. The twilight of the Democratic gods had certainly come I DUT something happened! President Roosevelt was rebuked In South Carolina, repudiated in California, lie will prob ably be beaten in Georgia and may oven lose out in Maryland, at least the same chance he took in the first two states, he will take in the two others, in fact throughout the country. As stated at the outset this column doubted the political wisdom of such action. We said it might not only mean the downfall of Roosevelt but the destruction of his party. But we praised the oouragcous qunlity of the leadership it exemplified. denied the slightest impropriety and considered the extravagant claims and alarums raised by the opposition, as nonsense, and extremely childish nonsense. , We feel the results to date, pretty well sustain our position. How About 1940? . course, aa previously stated in this column, the results in v these state primaries, are interesting as indications, but too many imponderables enter into any state contest, to justify very definite conclusions, M far as the national picture is con cerned. Do yesterday's results in South Carolina and California, for example mean, the delegations from these two states will be op posed to Roosevelt and the New Deal, at the next Democratic national convention t Did the South Carolina Democrats vote AGAINST President Roosevelt or did they vote FOR the dear old reprobate, "Cotton Ed" Smith! Does their verdict mean, so much opposition to Roosevelt and the New Deal, as it does opposition to what they regarded as meddling in their sacred state affairs! Similarly, Did the California Democrat vote against President Roose velt, or did they vote against the rather slick and nauseating senility of "night club Bill"! Did they vote against the Now Deal, or did they only vote for that $30 in redeemable script every Saturday night! XlfE are not trying to make out that the two results were not definitely defeats for Roosevelt, aa leader of the Democratic party. They were. But we are not so certain they were similar defeats for Roosevelt, the President of the United States. Of course drawing such a distinction leads to roars of raucous laughter from the G.O.P. gallery, nevertheless, such a distinction does exist. No well Informed person denies, for example, that the Presi dent's chief concern in this sooiillcd purge, is to seoure the control of the next party convention and assure the acceptance ot the political principles he has fought for. In other words it is essentially a party, not a national affair, it concerns the President as leader of that party, not as chief executive of the United States. e I other words, while there is no doubt yesterday's primary results represented tho sharpest slap in the face the Presi dent has ever received, from the members of his own party, those who assume this means either that he will fail to control the next Democratic convention or Fail to name the party candidate (even including himself) Are guilty, we fear, of making the wh father to the thought.

UNDULANT FEVER IN Many British soldier In tha Cri mean war suffered from a prolonged fever which waa finally traced to a' germ present In 1 the raw milk of goata. The dis ease waa named Mediterranean or Malta ferer. (1866). i A Danish vete rinarian named Bangs later found that contagious abortion In cat tle waa due to a germ he called bacillus abortus. In 1918 Miss Alice Evans of the U. 6. public health service showed that the germ, of Bangs disease are closely related If not Identical with the germs of Medtterranesn, Malta or, as It la now called, undulant fever in man. Occaalonal cases of undulant fever have occurred In the United States since the return of the U. S. army from the Philippines. The first epi demic outbreak occurred tn Phoenix, Arizona, In 1922, and since then more and more cases heve been recognised here and there, not epidemically, In many parts of the country. Latest designation for the germ of undulant fever la Brucella melltensls and for the disease In man brucel losis. Prom the very confusion of terms and ideas it la fairly evident that medical "science," as usual, Is Inexact and subject to change with out notice. You can't tell whleh way the cat will jump next. Some subsidized "authorities" are arbitrary and positive In ansurlnrj the public that pasteurizing milk which means heating to 145 degrees F. for 20 to 30 minutes provents this disease. Real authorities are not so certain of this. In this country cattle, hogs and goats have transmitted the disease to man. Farmers, veterinarians, slaughter-house workers and others who handle carcasses or the living ani mals are most likely to contract un dulant fever. The disease la lef.tt prevalent among the group of peopie who are the largest consumers ot milk Infants and children. Probau'y most of the milk consumed In the United States la not pasteurized. What we don't know about undulant fever and Its cause will make a book or two a decade hence. The very name "undulant" fever doesn't mean much it purports to describe the characteristic remissions that occur In some cases that is. fever continues for days or weens, then censes for days or weeks, later another period of fever. This Is by no means the course of the Illness In all enses. Often there Is no defi nite, remission. Just a prolonged low fever for months. Undulant fever has been mistaken for influenza, for typhoid fever, for malaria, for rheumatism, for tubercu losis. Suspicion may be aroused If such Illness drifts on and on Instead of running the more or les limited course tt should run. For the diagno sis of undulant fever (brucellosis) there are available blood tests, skin tests, end most specific a bacteriolo gical blood culture. Patient with mild long drawn out undulant fever has a great variety of aches and pains although he may look well enough. Unfortunately thin ho a brought upon some victims the stigma of "neurasthenia." As I have ventured to say here before, a diag Mail Tribune Daily ACROSS I. Composition for one 6. Hard water S.

'A. Fortler. curator at tfcOHSf lUCttt the Cablldo, an cient seat of Spanish rule In America and now the Louisiana state museum I am especially Indebted to these gentlemen, for It was through them that I have been able to see all the things I wanted to see and do the things X wanted to do. I was Interested, of course, In the modern developments In New Orleans aa well as French town and Jackson Square, end Mr. Weiss very grsclously plsced a car at my disposal, so that I had the benefit of a chauffeur and guide who took me everywhere and explained anything that I wanted to know. And I wanted to see one of the big banana boata from the tropics unload, and Mr. McKay took me down where the S.S. Toloha waa disgorg ing thousands of bunches of the fruit. Mr. McKay had three years experi ence In the tropics with bananas be fore he became general manager of the dock board in New Orleans, ana If there Is anything about bananas he doesn't understand it can't be very Important. Aa the cargo poured from the ship he explained the whole history of banana culture aa we know It today, and I was' astounded to learn, for Instance, that the banana belongs to the Illy family. It grows from within. Most of the bananas consumed In the country are swung from boats by negro labor right here In New Orleans. At least five ships a week every week- in the year are warped Into their berths along the docks, and It Is no feat at all for 60,000 bunches to be unloaded In six or seven hours. Having glimpsed the municipal de velopments and become an eufhnH? ron banana culture. I went over to tho Cablldo and talked all morning with Mr. Fortler, who is an enthusi astic and. at times, militant cham pion of Louisiana's place in world history. The Cablldo la a "must" on the list of any visitor to New Orleans, for there Is where the for mal trnnsrer of Loulsana from the French to the United fUnfja. tyi.k- place. There you will find the Death masa oi napoieon, the cell that housed Pierre LaFitte, the great paintings of the Battle of New Or leans, portraits and factual rornrtir. of the great men, from ancient gran dee to modern statesmen, who have had a pnrt in New Orleans history. lucres a wnoie room devoted to Huey Long. There Is a record of Loulsana'c part In the Revolutionary war. and the War of 1813, and the War be tween the states, and the Spanish American war, and, finally, the Wot!d war. Tou see cutlasses used by La Fltte's pirates, you see th great painting representing the last coun cil of war between Lee and Jackson. There Is a patio where the boot of Innumerable cavaliers have trod. There l a recently discovered dun geon in which bonea and iron shackles were found. There Is, in fact, some memento or relic of every thing of historical Importance that has ever happened In Louisiana. I think it may safely be said that no state museum in th country has so complete and fascinating a record of Its past, and certainly James For. tier la the man largely responsible presence would cause both Czechs snd Sudetens to adopt more compro mising attitudes, but delay waa the main object. At first, It seemed thst the Run- clman mission would aucceed, opera oouiie though It method was. Hitler, however, aaw through tha method. and made hi counter-move.

Th crisis Is likely to b so rive, because In th general stat ol mili tary preparedness, of nerves and anger, simmering out will b a dif ficult business, rot ths present there are no signs that Hitler will call off hla Sudeten. And as for th French and British standing for cantonal autonomy, It would be tantamount to th French and British confirm In; Hitler hegemony of Europe. But the last alternative depends, of course, on th fsllur of th three others. As ths choice Is In tha hands of on man, Hitler, and as that man now seem to be suffering from se vere megalomania, th outlook Is blsck Indeed. Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THESE words are written on Mon day, and will be read not earlier than Tuesday and predictions are unsafe tn these days. But It LOOKS ss If a showdown la being called for In th European poker gam. NOTE, please, thst Britain has chsnged her tone. Ho longer Is she patting Bad Boy Hitler tolerantly on the head and Indicating to him th whereabouts of the candy store. Instead,, by aendlng her fleet to the North Sea, she Is directing his at tention to the sharp stick. It looks as if somebody may have to put up or shut up. . THIS much Is fairly certain: Hitler will have to start whatever Is started. In modern warfare, the defensive side la favored In a ratio of about four to one. That la to aay, the side that takes the offensive must hsve about four men to the defenders' one If it Is to have a reasonable ex pectation of winning. If little Czechoslovakia has a half million men under arms. It will take about two million Germane to over come them. That, at . least, Is whst the military men have been tell ing us. IF something really IS going to hap pen, It will probably happen quickly. If Hitler believes he hss the necessary four-to-one advantage, he will strike quickly Instead of stall ing and thus giving Britain and Franc time to get Into action. If he stalls, it will be fairly good evi dence that nothing Is going to hap pen right away. DR. Townsend turns down Ma . honey and pats Holman rather ostentatiously on the bsck.
