SMITH'S ENEMIES
The singular occurrence in the pres
ent day politics of South Carolina was
the defeat of President Roosevelt's
attempt to defeat Senator Smith for
re-election.
It was engineered by politicians
and office-holders who pass for
Roosevelt men and New Dealers.
They scotched an effort on which the
president staked his prestige in South
Carolina To defeat Smith was the
one return for favors which the president
has asked of the South Carolinians,
their votes in national convention
excepted. His South Carolina
leaders and "friends" turned him
down.
Barly In last summer's campaign
a conference in Mr. Smith's interest
was held. Who were In It The News
and Courier will not now say. Naming
them It might make mistakes as to
one or more. It could name men,
prominent office-holders and personal
representatives of office-holders, who
were active In that Smith conference.
Curious too has been the political
fortune of Governor O. D. Johnston,
governor until last January and President
Roosevelt's candidate for senator
In 1938. He was the man most
marked until his defeat by the presient's
favor and was completely unreserved
in loyalty lo Die president
He did not venture to announce for
the senate until he had visited the
White House steps.
He has received no recognition
from Washington since his defeat
and, although he received a large
vote in the primtry, it would be difficult
to discover other tliau "antiJohnston
men" in important posts In
the federal service. Perhaps his scornful
treatment of negroes in Sumter
may account for it?negro leaders In
New York and Washington, Influential
In national Democratic counsels,
would not easily forget the affront to
their race.
The Interesting fact Is that John-(
ston and Johnston men are outside
of the Roosevelt tent. No choice rations
are being served them.
All this may change In a twinkling.
Politicians who could not be relied on
to take part in the Roosevelt Toray
may be shouting any day for a third
term for him.?Charleston News and
Courier.
