POLITICAL TRENDS
With the Republicans outnum
bered so badly that there is no
opportunity foT contest, political
gossip throughout the land ap
pears to center in the controver
sies arising within the Demo
cratic party. The court battle
started the idee and now com
mentators are having their in
nings at predicting the strength
of the so-called Conservative and
New Deal factions making up the
Democratic party.
Outcome of the first court bat
tle was generally interpreted as
■a Conservative victory. But there
seems to be some question wheth
er such is the case. A recent poll
■taken by the American Institute
of Public Opinion would discount
■the theory. The Institute polled
the voters in the various states
on the question. “If Roosevelt
j isn't a candidate for re-election
in 1940, would you prefer a con
servative type of candidate or a
New Dealer?”
Result of that poll the country
over reveals, the Institute reports
that 67 percent favored a New
Dealer while the remaining third
■or 33 percent, favoring a Conserv
•ative. It is interesting to note
that this trend is universal. The
New England States voted 70
'percent New Deal preference,
j Middle Atlantic States, 72 per
cent; Blast Central States, 64 per
cent; West Central States, 58 per
cent; Southern States, 68 percent;
Pocky Mountain States, 64 per
cent, and Pacific Coast States. 67
| percent
But with this top-heavy New
!,Deal preference, the Institute
poll indicates that the conserva
tive element still has a strong in
fluence on Democratic policies be
■cause of the fact that it is not
confined to one section but like
the New Deal sentiment is equal
ly divided over the country. Dr.
.George Gallup, who gets out the!
.poll, however, expresses the view
.that if public sentiment holds as
,the poll now reveals New Deal
ers may supplant some of the
Conservative Senators in the
Democratic primaries next year.
Among some of the Conservatives
who will be in the primaries
next year is Clark of Missouri.
.George of Georgia. McCarren of
Nevada, Tydings of Maryland
and Van Nuys of Indiana.
Equally politically intriguing
.in connection with public sent
iment is the revelation of another;
Institute survey. This vote was
taken on the question of a third

that question was 57 percent in
favor of a third term, or a ma
jority of the voters. The Presi
dent’s name was not used in this
poll but a check on the Chief
Executive’s popular standing
brought out that of 31 percent
favoring his election for a third
