WILL STAND AGAIN ?

—•— PARTY AIM FOR ROOSEVELT WASHINGTON. lJth November. President Roosevelt, it is reported, , may create a precedent by consenting to nominate for the third time as President of the United States in the 1940 elections. New Deal leaders are alarmed by the exceptionally strong Republican showing in the recent Congress and Senate elections, and are reported to be making their plans already to ensure that President Roosevelt’s is the only nomination at the Democratic National Convention in 1940. The final returns show that the Republicans gained 81 seats in the House of Representatives, 8 in the Senate, and 11 governorships in the various States. One of those mentioned as a possible Republican nominee is Mr H. C. Hoover, who was President from 1929 to 1933. RECONCILING PARTY One reason for taking early steps to ensure President Roosevelt's nomination is that the Democrats do not wish to have a split vote at the Convention and wish to reconcile the various disaffected members of their party, including those whom President Roosevelt placed on the “black list” during the recent election because of their failure to support parts of his New Deal policy. It is realised that no other Democrat has the enormous popular appeal of the framer of the New Deal. During the next two years President Roosevelt himself probably will concentrate on trying to bring together the “Liberals” of both parties. THEN AND “NOW THEN!” To-day as they did seventy-five years ago, New Zealanders place their trust in Baxters Lung Preserver. Time has proved “Baxters” unbeatable for fixing coughs, colds, sore throats and many chonchial ailments. Always take “Baxters" —1/6, 2/6 and 4'6 —all chemists and stores. “Baxters" is best.
