[ Portrait of a 1938 Model ]
In the Democratic party/ no man except the Presi
dent has wielded more power than Pennsylvania’s
Senator Joseph F. Guffey/ the man who kidnaped
2/000/000 votes from the Republicans in ’36/ made
one man Speaker of the House, another Majority
Leader. What sort of man Is Boss "Joe" Guffey?
How did he rise to power? Will he keep It? With
him-or even without—will'his "organization for
service" dominate the party’s convention In 1940?
See this week’s Post for the life story of a modern,
