The Walla Walla Bulletin calls attention to this sit uation, as follows : An experience which officials ot the Whitman Centennial re cently had in Teaching the desired authorities at the national cap ital ia somewhat typical of conditions prevailing many years there. Senator Charles L. McNary of Oregon, to whom the association directed a request, obtained results promptly, after solons of this state, members of the party in power, had made little headway. McNary is-a republican, and Is known as the senate leader ot the minority. Every senator and representative from thia state is a democrat. Oddly, however, the Orcgonian goea on contacting bureaus and officials from the president down, with effective re sults. He even has time, and the ability, to look after, and get action upon, matters outside his own state. Senator McNary is thus viewed, outside his state as well as in, as one of the most useful men in congress. Whether it be in an election year or not, reasonable re Quests for help have always received immediate and ef fective attention from Senator McNary. The Political. Seers THE period of questionable political prediction is at hand. Others on both sides of the political fence may be expected soon to emulate Walter Gosslin, Gov ernor Martin's secretary, who returned from a swing over the state to tell how the 1,0 counties visited were way over in the Roosevelt column. - Such prognostications are common during every poli tical campaign. They are designed to strengthen the morale of workers and influence the bandwagon vote. That's accepted political technique, but at best its not very dependable prediction. - ' Out on a junket, these political prophets 'contact few local 'leaders' who are working for the same cause. They indulge in a lot of 'wish-thinking' and 'wish-talking' and they go on to the next county, mark ing that just visited as definitely on their side of the fence.. . -. , Not even local people know up ' to' election night how most local contests are going to turn out If they did, there wouldn't be such interest in vote returns as Is shown at each election. Yet these political junketeers, after a few hours' visit and after talking to a dozen or so persons who want to make their visit pleasant by rosy reports, tell almost to the vote how a county is go ing to go. Recently, there was some loud protest against the Literary Digest poll. It was attacked as a factor that would influence the bandwagon vote, although almost every political worker is trying to do that all the time. And the Digest poll, at least, was based on something more than hotel-room confabs with a few local workers and wish-thinkers. Still A Chance DECISION of the city council against going into the health program as recently proposed by the state health officer need not mean that there is no use at tempting further to iron out the health problems and de velop a unified program. As we understand it, the chief objection of the city board of health was to the federal feature. It felt,- wise ' ly enough, that the responsibility should be kept at home, even at the expense of losing a little federal money. - But if the problems are as serious as were stated by arious physicians and other citizens at the meetings held here a month or so ago, there is need for further study and the working out of some plan of action. Pos sibly there are advantageous features of the federal aid plan that could be embraced in a strictly local program. , If local leadership can be called to the cause, and A careful study made, there may yet be much accomplish ed in the direction of an improved public health program.

THE WASHINGTON Nil' IV 8 HKHIM TUB NKW8 a a' a '.' Til Inside Story From Tho Capital a a Uy PAUL M.I,U)N Copyright 1936, by Paul Mullon WASHINGTON, Murch 18. A small group ot top business men have already ordered their cigars and begun smoking up for ' an. other "smoke-flllod room" at the Cleveland republican convention. They are not going around making speeches about it, but they have an idea they enn noni' innte "another Harding" (their phrase). They have already pick ed the mnu. . Ho Is not one ot the candi dates now being prominently mentioned. The chief argument being advanced tor him ia that "he looks like a president." Also that he Is "safer" than most of those now receiving public at tention. He will go into the con vention with very few delegates, nut it and when a stalemate de velops, they hope to bring him out ot the darkest of dark horse alalia as the compromise winuer. The advance grooming work so far has been excellent, but It will undoubtedly not work out as planned. One reason Is that a more popular choice will prob ably dovolop out ot the existing contest before the convention. Another la that too many repub lican authorities believe such i course would be fatal. a a a HISTORICAL CORRECTION . Incidentally; Mr. Harding was not nominated In the old smoke- tilled hotel room at the Chicago convention, . as- popularly .sup posed. Ho was chosen more than a week beforo the convention by less than half a doien ot the party bigwigs mooting in an other city. They saw the stale mate coming and got together. The widely advertised hotel room meeting was called by them at the proper time to got the minor leaders In on the agreement and to pass the word along. This historical correction will be made officially when one ot the men who attended the earl ier conference publishes his me moirs In the next few years. Political leaden are not so Im provident In these modern days aa to let nominations get down to smoke-filled convention rooms. That only happens In political fairy tales. REGRET The lucky candidates In the current melee will be the ones who lose. Only those who have been president or very close to the Inside of the White House can realize how - the presidency haa wrecked many lives.' . The trials and tribulations, and their effect on health and personal en joyment, really make the glamor of being a big man in history hardly worth while. . It has never before been pub lished, hat the same jovial Mr.' Harding, . on bis inauguration day, long before his real trou bles started, regretted his own election. He nudged his secre tary, George Christian, as. he passed through the senate cham ber on his way to the Inaugural stand, saying: "George, being senator was tory. Think of the Gothic cath edral as a symbol of Its power and Its aspiration. This civili zation was built upon the ap peal to authority, authority im posed from without. In pontics It meant absolnte monarchy. In Industry it meant feudalism. In religion it meant the authorita tive church or the authoritative book, that Is to say, the suppres sion of freedom of thought and freedom of conscience. In edu cation it meant the training ot the few who were destined to ex ercise authority. However great such a civilization might be, It could not endure. Its founda tions were not broad enough nor deep enough. Prayer: On God, kindle our hearts with great resolve so that with the vision of the Kingdom of God In our minds we may en list for life In the endless war fare against all that degrades and disappoints. Hasten the day when the sun may shed Its light upon an unbroken brotherhood ot men and ot nations. In His name. Amen. , Read Mark 10:35-45. .NOWPUYW, 1 ff!T3lMw i ALSO AUDIOSCOPIKS" THE SCREEN'S NEW STfRIOPTICAL NOVELTYI YOU'LL SCREAM WITH EXCITEMENT WHEN MICE NIBBLE YOURNOSEI , NEWS .

God' only knows why we gave it up for this." a a a DESTI.VY The personal pains ot great political auscosa were suggosled to one of the eminent republi can candidates not long ago by a friend. The friend observed that the candidate would never be as contented In the White House as where he then was. The candi date ' admitted It, but said: Those things are all beyond us. If I am going to get It, that Is my destiny and there ia no use running away from It or resist ing It" - a a a HELP? It - Is difficult to prove how much there is in the stories going around that the New Deal ers are encouraging toe uoran republican candidacy. One of the stories is worth telling, however, only aa a humorous Improbabil ity. It In related In tne senate cloak room that the Idaho repub lican was calling on Mr. Roose velt at the White House some weeks ago. The president Inter rupted the conversation to ask: Bill, why don t you go into tne Illinois primary?" Borah Is supposed to nave re plied that he was thinking about It. The president reached for a telenhone. saying: "111 call up Chicago and get you some dele gates out there." Some of these congressmen who hare been making speeches for economy have begun to change their tune privately. Let ters have been coming in irom back home protesting against WPA cuts. Also protests have been piling up against curtailing CCC camps. This situation has already been grapevined down Pennsylvania avenue to tho White House. . PRESSURE The smart Idea of having states cqme into the supreme court with appeals to uphold tha Ouffey coal act Is supposed to have been arranged by Senator Gurtey himself. He passed the word around, far In advance, that the atate briefs would be filed. The idea is more political than legal. Most of the briefs are not legalistic arguments, but merely assertions that the states cannot regulate the Industry and that therefore the federal government should do It. A few of tho briefs admit that the states could make compacts, but say thla is Impractical. a a PROWLING Townsend Investigators of the house are already having their Inner troubles.
