Now I wonder wb,y, the onl.y one day (And only inside him at that) ' Twas Marvin H. Muc, and it v~asn ' t a l ack Of moisture that made him that way. The rain nevar ceased, like ravenous beast I t menaced the mid-westarn states; Ana thousands of' folk where levees broke Sought help in their desperate straits. Ever ready at hand did the Presiden t stand~ And aid was sent out right av;ay. But troubles at home continued to foam, Prima Donnas would have their 'iiSy.

Brethren: The words of my text are - Old Father Franklin Old Father Franklin, he went to the cupboard To get his poor dog a b one When he got there, the cupboar d was bare And so the poor dog had none . These beautiful wor ds, my friends, carry in them a solemn lesson and I propose to analyze their meaning and attempt to apply i t to our every day~ _ Old Father Franklin, he went to the cupboard to get his poor dog a bone. Father Franklin was old, there being no mention of others we may presume t hat he was also frienless, s olitary, yet 1 did he dfspair. Di d he sit down and we ep? Or read a dectective story, or wring his handel Nol He went to the cupboard. And here observe he went to the cupboard. He was ol~ and lonely and we gather he was poor for observe the words t he cupboard, not one of the cupboar ds, nor the r ight hand one~ r the left hand onehor the one above~or the o ne under the floor but just t he cupboard, one humble little cupboard, the one humble little cupboard poor old Father Franklin possessed. And why did he go to the cupboard? Was it to bring forth golden goblets or glittering precious stones from Brazil, or tiger skins from Abyssinia or decorations from the Argentine, or any other attribute , - ~.. ..v - 2 - of wealth? No, it was to get his poor dog a bone. Not only was ~ " v::- fMtL ~~ ~ (~tft•u j he poor but his dog, .w,e soa comfort of his~ age was poor too. 1- h can see him crouched, looking wistfully at the cupboard and poor Father Franklin going toward it in hope and expectation. But, when he got there,..a the cupboard was bare, so &he poor dog had none. ' W~4~ he ~ot thereJ You. see, dear brethren what perseverance • • is. You see the beauty of persistence in doing right. He got there. There were no turnings or twistings, nor slipping nor sliding no leaning)to the right or falteringsto the left. With glorious simplicity we are t old he got there. And how was hie noble effort rewarded? The cupboard was bare. There were neither jobs, nor duti dul me~ers of Congress ~ nor favorable Supreme Oourt decisions, nor ~i!f~ labor leaders, w - ~f'«v r.;: >/',._,,( (•.U•.•""' . nor r•raa•le industrialists, nor a fa•e~.e}e press, not even any good ideas for fire works. The cupboard wae bare. There was only one cupboard in the whole of that cottage and that one the sole hope. of poor old Father Franklin and a glorious ~ loadstar for the poor dog'\was bare. Had there been even a little surplus commodi t y or some National Youth Administration cake or some W.P.A. ditches or some c.c.c. forests, poor old Father Franklin and hie dog might have found themselves a living. But it was bare my brethren, bare as a bald head - nothing was there. (1 (,.1,__1 JAany of you will probably say with all ~ wor ldl y pride and soph~ist ry that old Father Franklin went out and bought himself an election on which to feed his dog. Ah, nol Far removed from these worldly i deas, these mundane desires, poor old Father Franklin whom thoughtless worldlings would d'apise in that he only had one cupboar d, perceived - or I might even say saw - at once the relentless logic of the situation and yielded to it with all the • - 3 - heroism of that nature which had enabled him without deviation to reach the barren cupboard. He did not attempt like the stiff- necked scoffers of this generation to war against the inevitable. He did not try like the so-called men of science to explain what he did not understand. He did nothing and the poor dog bad none. He accepted the situation and trusted to the people. Sutfioe for us t o glean from this beautiful story its many lessons. Suffice for us to apply them, to study them as far as in us lies, bearing in mind the natural frailty of our nature, We must try not to be old, we must try not to be called Franklin, we must try to have if our means per mit, more than one cupboard in the house and we must try to keep st ores in them all and Oh , dear friends keep in recollection what we have l earned this day. Let us avoid keeping dogs t hat are fond of bones but brethren i f you do, if fate has ordained t ·lat we should do many of th&.se things, l et us then go as Father Franklin did, straight without ~ixxitJx~ curvetting or prancing to our copboard, empty though i t may seem and ~ accept the i nevitable with calm steadf a stness and should we, like Father Franklin, ever be left with a hungry dog and an empty cupboard, may future chroniclers be able to write of us in the beauti ful words of our text, and so the poor dog had none.

The entire staff is on twenty-four hour duty heroically combatL~ the r aging Ohio flood. The offices are in t he utmost confusion, and the secretaries dis~lay the usual evidences of a hangover. At t~e moment Secretary :1lcintyre is tall t o hi~sclf . Since sooner or l ater anyw~y the public will lmovr the difference between Mcintyre and a first- class flhite House secretary, let' s see ir we can c::tch what he is saying. Mctntyre: This i s Mci ntyre speaklng. I can see nothing to be alarmed sbout1 1 Kentucky 1 s blanlcety- blank-bl11nk Gnvernor and the - 2- blankety-blank-blank ~or of Louisville can handle anything. If there are any mistakes which they haven' t made , I will hear about them soon gh. For the first time in my life I am renouncing the Stat e of ~ birth and claiming residence in Cincinnati. Everything would be all right here if Earl7 would only stay home . A:8 Sa, I am on top of the situation. You can assure my public that I am in close touch w1 tb all of th.e famous Kentucky beauties 1n the flood area. I intend to do something about it, but as usual, don' t know what. The Secretary of War has just horned in. I now turn the mike over to the greatest Secretary of War since Pa Watson was in the Field Artillery some for ty years ago. - -3- Secretary of War: This is Woodring speaking to the Democratic 1 )1 job-holders of Kansas. I have just ordered the evacuation of the entire population of Utab and Nevada and am leaving for the destitute region at once on the highest horse in the Army. I will drop off in Kansas to pick up a few odd jobs on the way. Announcer I now take you to t he office of the newest secretary, Mr. James Roosevelt. He i s found si t ting • • at his desk , holding his mfe Is hand. No , his wife i s holding his hand . Jimmy is putting up a good front but obviously needs t he Lit tle Woman . Ja'!les Roosevel t : This is James Roosevelt speaking. Since I r evi ved the N. R.A . ~d carried Massachusetts, I want it clearly understood that I insist this flood be held in Massachusetts. Kentucky i s all wet anyway. Things have been fi xed up in MassachUsetts ' I • -4- so that Walsh will permit a flood and Curley will not divert it - 01uch . I confess I eJD a little bewildered Jui~."' ,:.t"". t ~ as to the exact b • floe of the raging waters, Mit I eJD sorry that this flood didn't happen before election. I can assure my boys in Massachusetts that I intend to have this flood in their State before nightfall, because it is essential I find someway to get jobs for the thousands I pro~sed a berth after the .. Nove~ber election. • r..nounoero~ Just as Colonel Watson and Paul Basteado are arguing ·;;ith themselves as to 1•ho is the Governor of Kentucky, the \'lhi te House is interrupted by an urgent call from Louisvi~ ''Louisville calling the '1/hite Houoe. 11 "Louisville calling the White House& Dispatch Ex- Army Officer, Watson, ~lat car to flood area at once.

And then I have Joe - / on my hands. He ?:as on the Pr esident' s hands for almost two year s , but he is now resigned to me.
