NEXT TERM WILL BE NO PARTY
(Ketchikan Chronicle)
No matter who wins the coming election, a lonely
and frequently very tired man is going to be occupy
ing the White House during the next four years. The
prospects are so dark it is a wonder any man would
want the job.
For the country is in the midst of a period of consid
erable stress, and the focal point of this stress will rest
squarely in the middle of the executive mansion. Con
sider, for a moment, what the occupant will be up
against.
He will be forced to decide whether the United
States is going to swing to the right or to the left dur
ing the next four years. Whoever the wdnner is, the
pressure on him will be tremendous, and if he tries to
•hew a straight, middle course it will be greater than
ever, for each side will accuse him of going in the
wrong direction.
He will have to direct the foreign policy of the
most powerful nation in the world at a time when—un
less all observers are mistaken—the world will be in
greater danger of stumbling into war than at any time
since 1918.
He will be faced with the titanic task of erecting
defenses against the drought and erosion that have be
come so dangerous to our future as an agricultural na
tion. In some ways this will be one of his greatest
tasks, since it involves nothing less than preserving the
physical assets of the land from incalculable natural
forces.
He will be held responsible, rightly or wrongly, for
the maintenance of American prosperity in a world
which is following selfish and blind nationalistic poli
cies that lead away from prosperity. There will not be
a great deal that he will be able to do about this, and
he will have the comfort of knowing that, no matter
what course he follows, he will meet with determined
opposition.
It is the same way with unemployment. Here,
again the president should not be held responsible, or
even chiefly responsible, for the growth or diminution
of that terrific problem. But his fellow citizens will
blame him, just the same. It may be a well-nigh im
possible task, but he will have to find a solution.
Most important of all, he will have to furnish the

people of America with a moral and emotional rally
ing point. The people are tired and confused and they
have been that way for years They want desperately
to be drawn together, to be persuaded that there is a
way they can follow, and to be led along that way.
One of these days they may do some very distress
ing things if that conviction and that leadership are not
given them. It is going to be up to the president to
meet that demand.
It is hard to think of any man on earth on whom
more will depend than the President of the United
States in the next four years.
The campaign is beginning to speed up. and hard
things will be said about both candidates. Before we
get too emotional, we might stop to give the winner,
whoever he is—Roosevelt or Landon—our deepest
sympathy.
