Mo. 35 CEDARVILLE, OHIO, l Y, JULY 28 ,1M8 P B I C S v t U O A Y X A * Up on Capitol Hill, and throughout official life generally, the long awaited statement of President Roosevelt to’a, third term, as issued at the Beroo* Cratic National Convention last/Week through Senator Barkley, came as a decided anti-climax. The Presidents secretiveness during the past My months regarding his plans brought all’ sorts of conjectures and wild guesses as to what he would finally say or do. Then, when it was on- pounced from the White Bouse that Senator Barkley would'issue a state­ ment from President Roosevelt to the Democratic Convention, all the politi­ cally, minded citizens of the country, both Democrats and Republicans, wait­ ed tensely to see what the announce ment would be. Practically all expect­ ed it to be a plain definite statement, one way or the other." The country was not prepared to receive the, sly, evasive words that were uttered and, ■*despite the fact .that the, Convention proceeded to nominate Mr. Roqsei .fit according to schedule, the'reaction in the Convention and over the country generally certainly was not beneficial to the President. ■ ’SJfeU.e in his state­ ment the President" said he had not been seeking renomination, and Nwas Upt a candidate therefore, and- that all delegates to the Covention were free to vote as they pleased, the fact remains tha^r by his very -failure to definitely stabs he was not. a candidate and would not accept the nomination he in fact, toM the Covention .that be WouWaccept the, nomination. .Such a statement, When cottsidcred in con- ■ neefion with the actions of Secretary o f Commerce Hopkins, who is the Presidents closest friend and who lives in' the White House with him, in attending the Convention and head­ ing the drive to,, "draft Roosevelt1’ proves beyond question that Roose­ velt did seek the third term nomina­ tion and used the smartest possible methods tp obtain it. * n o n e JUDGMENT Judgments on promissory notes are sought in two suits filed in common pleas court this week.

While Congress, is back in session, following the," recess of the Demo­ cratic Convention, but little legisla-. live work is being done' this Week, A number of important committees, how­ ever, are in session giving considera­ tion to major legislation that will soon Come before Congress for action. There, has been considerable agita­ tion over sending American ships in­ to the war zone to remove refugees, especially. English children .1 The send­ ing of United States ships across the Seas for such a purpose Would be a direct violation of the Neutrality Act and the proclamation of the President is'Shed thereunder, ft is also being pointed out that English ships are! tombing American ports almost daily tp pbiairi needed war* supplies, and that such ships can bring English children, seeking passage to America, ' without ( the necessity of sending American ships overseas and placing the United States in danger of involve- ment id the present conflict. Just re­ cently a ruling was made permitting the entry o f English refugee children Into the United State's as "visitors’* for the duration of the war without regard to the present .immigration ’• .. tif— V ' While, of course many Democratic Members of Congfjess were in at­ tendance a t the Democratic National Convention,;most of the Republican Members,* and quite a few of the Prefoeratlc Members, took advantage of the recces to return to their home and, incidentally to look over their political fences, Behind the scenes the Administra­ tion drive to obtain a sufficient num­ ber of votes to adjourn.
