PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT went Into South Carolina and
plainly indicated he wanted Senator "Cotton Ed" Smith
defeated.
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

WELL, well we thought President Roosevelt wag going to
"BUY" these elections. "We were told as was everyone

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

at least the same chance he took in the first two states, he will
take in the two others, in fact throughout the country.

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)

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

Mr. Jamea J. 'A.

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.

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.

let US know, of course.
As we don't have "0 Men"
on our selling force.
We always try to get around
and about,
But often when we call you
and family are out.
Remember if you buy with
out looking at Chevrolet,
You're Just BOUND to be a
loser in every way!
Unless you're so flush you
throw away dough,
And in that case you're the
one I want to know.
