Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt will be the Democratie candidate for President of the United States in 1936 and all the party members now want is an improvement in the nation's economic situation.
The Democratic high command bellove that regardless of eir- cumstances, Mr. Roosevelt will be returned to the White House for another four years. They admit, however, that a general improve- | ment in economic conditions would make his election much easier. Conversely, should the depression | get worse, opposition to the Presi- dent would increase.
"Support the President" may be one of the slogans to ring out throughout the states during the 1936 campaign. Leaders árc ready to go out and demand four more years for Mr. Roosevelt in order that he may complete the job he started when he came into offico on March 4, 1932, with all the banks in the nation closed.
In 1864, right in the middle of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln was re-elected, and one of the
most important arguments in his behalf was, "Don't change horses

ACHIEVEMENT AT CAMBRAI
Washington. Viscount Byng of Vimy, who gained military pre-eminence at the battle on the Ridge whose Hame he bears, has an inner feel ing that the Battle of Cambrai the scene of his greatest achievement.
WAH
All the world knows of the fam ous battle on April 9, 1917, when the
Canadian Corps
carried heights occupied by the Germans and gave re-birth to the fagging confidence of the Allies; but Mar- shal Byng's action at Cambrai has been loss remembered,
"The Vimy action was eut und died; it had been in preparation for four months after the Somme," the Viscount said in an interview here.
"It is of interest to military students as an example of an offensive-defensive nction. We took the ridge to hold it defen- sively while the Third Army gain- ed ground. The action at Vimy was crowned with success but the larger movement did not entirely obtain, its objectives. The battle was remarkable for the wonderful co-operation of the services."
..
Pressed for further reply as to what loomed in his. own mind as his greatest accomplishment, he referred to the battle of Cambrai, on October 9, 1917, which he said had been instigated by him and was fought by his army.
Marshal Byng said that he first met General John J. Pershing. commander-in-chief of the Ameri can Expeditionary Force, at Cam- brai,
"He stayed with me at Cambrai, and made an impression on me by his care for the wounded. He apent an entire day at front line hospitals and casually stations. I have never seen him since Cam bral,
Viscount Byng said that he had nover written a book regarding his war-time experiences And he doubted if he should ever do so.
"We are too noar the war to get the proper perspective and too far to remember the details," he said, of the war books had contained incidentally remarking that some too much abuse." He dismissed

DECCA PORTROLA
A complete all electric radio-gram -in-the-compass-of-an-ordinary
acoustic portable. Something that- until the introduction of this truly remarkable little instrument was considered out of the question. But the seemingly impossible has been accomplished and DECCA- the Inventors of the first acoustic portable-now introduce the world's first portable radio-gram.
A marvel of ingenuity, the 'Portrola is distinguished not merely for its portability and novelty, but it really is a highly officient radio-gram; giving superlative results on radio or records and challenging favourable comparison with most multi-valve receivers.
