Delivery-Boys. For this victory Franklin Roosevelt could thank many a man, but particularly two-Jimmy Byrnes of South Carolina in the Senate, Lindsay Carter Warren of North Carolina in the House. Powerful Mr. Warren, a bull-built, blunt, 49-year-old country lawyer with a fine stand of black hair, may one day be Speaker of the House, notwithstanding the hankering of the White House Janizariat for John W. McCormack, of Boston's famous Ward 8. Last week Lindsay Warren, working glove-smooth with Leader Sam Rayburn of Texas, Whip Paddy Boland of Scranton, Pa., delivered the South...

North Carolina's Reynolds charged that Stalin sank the Athenia. But only the stubbornest Senate orator could ignore the fact that the galleries lay almost empty day after day. Nobody came to hear the Great Debate; though on one day hundreds flocked to see Fritz Kuhn before the Dies Committee. This week...
This year the Dixie landslide has continued. On the second Saturday of the season, Louisiana State and Alabama overpowered Holy Cross and Fordham-two of the East's most powerful teams. The following week, Tulane trimmed Fordham and North Carolina trounced New York University, a less touted but promising outfit. By last week even the proudest Northerners had to admit that football was acquiring a decided Southern accent.
