Some of the members of the House Committed claim that they understand the bill. Most economists, tax experts and Congressmen of both Houses say\that it is too complicated for anybody to understand in the_form in which t)ie Committee has drafted it. The rear new tax law will be drawn up in the House for concurrence. All pf this is going to take a lot of time. I New Convention Strategy Democratic leaders are beginning to say that perhaps, after all\it may be good atrate^ for congres^to be still in ^session while "the Republy^ns are nominating their candidate and announcing their platform at Cleve land. Practically all the Republican, mimbers of both houses will be nt- HSnding that coh\«ntion. That will leaveXa clear field for a lot of Demo cratic \)ratory in the halls of con gress?, it will get better head lines tha^f it were merely scattered utterances \by individual Democrats. . By. thi.s bit oi strategy, it is believed, whatever thos Republicans propose may be offset in. the headlines before the IVmocratic cmjvention meets, and l>efore the Re publican convention Adjourns. The subject of parw platforms is receiving more arul moi'^attention. It is the general feeling herTthat Presi dent Roosevelt, in his Jef^rson- day speech in New York on ApriX25, laid down the general lines wh^h the Democratic platform will followN^hat party’s api>eal to the people, if ^is assumption is correct, will be ba^ upon the assertion that recovery haX, bwn brought about under and by the pre.sent admini.stration< The Democratic platform is expect ed to point with pride to the record, while promising still greater prosper ity if the party is reelecteil. There will quite possibly be coupled with this some reference to the__way in the federal government has Lbcal Citizen Loses Sister Friends of B. L.

Gordon Matheson, graduate of P, Q., in the class of 1921, to the office of dean of Paducah Junior college, Paducah, Ky. Mr, Matheson began his work-several weeks ago upon the resignation of Dean Norman Braden. In addition to his bachelor’s degree received from Presbyterian college, Mr. Matheeon obtained his M. A. at the University of South Carolina in 1929, did graduate work at Peabody college, and has had a large and va ried teaching career. He was presi dent of Presbyterian Junior callege, Maxton^ N. C., for 12 years and was, in addition, commandant of Bailey Military academy. Greenwood. Last year Mr. Matheson served as assistant to President John MeSweeri of P. C., in which capacity he made many friends in faculty and student will not be small. He will not throw his strength, to Col Knox, but he might, in order to defeat Gov. Lan- don, join his strength with the Knox strength to advance Senator Vanden- berg’s claim.. The Republican situation has real ly re.solved Tlself into a “Stop-Lan- don” movement. Whether tjfiat move ment ha.s started too late to be effec tive is still in doubt. Some of the ex- periepced political observers here are drawihg a parallel between this Step- Landon movement and the Stop- Rooseyelt movem.cnt of four^ years ago, and are predicting a similar fail- ure.

( ampaign Outlook I^the Democratic canvpaign man- agernent takes its cue from the tone of thTsoresident’s address, the presi dential \campaign of 1936 . will be quieter ^an has been anticipated. Word has l^n passed out to all of the admonis^tibn’s publicity bureaus to tread lighHy from now on upon the toes of the^^position, and to put out nothing why^will tend to stir up partisan antagonimi or furnish am munition to the R^ublicans. If that policy can be made t^ stick with cam paign spokesmen for administra- tion^it may prove highiY effective. The Republican .leadei^iip is still struggling with the' shapii^ of its platform and the points to ^ empha sized by .Senator Frederick ^teiwer of Oregon, who has been seleiHed to make the keynote speech at Cleve land, as temporary chairman ofXhe Republican convention. TSenator oteiwer tnns the limelight as a national figure, and there is naturally eome talk of him as a possible “dark horse’’ presi dential candidate. He comes from the TSiir whicb^ is "feoyi^BhicallV good politics. He has a clean record for party regularity and is highly re gard^ by his coll^gLies in the sen ate, though little known to the gen eral public. Less-well-known men than Senator Steiwer have, however, b^n nominated and elected to the presidency in the past. The G. O. P. Contcet The conteet in the Republican con vention on the early ballots now seems likely to be between Governor Landon and Col. Knox. Col. Knox be«' lieves that he will have three hundre^ votes on the“ first baHd€'Gov. L»n^ don’s friends claim more Uian that for him on the Hrst ballot. It takes 50L vqtes to nominate. Nobody knows yet how many votes Soiator Borish will have, but he will have a good many, perhaps 200 or more. Senator Vandenberg will have the 38 Michi gan votes on the first ballot. The present outlook is that there wil^bo some votes for Senaffir Dickinson. The^real queetion, however, as po litical observers here see it, is wheth er the strmgth ol^hese minor blocks of delegates wUihe thrown to Lon don or to Knox. Few believe that Knox can attrect to himeelf enough votii to gain the Aornfawtion.
