This article presents information on J.J. Raskob chairman of the U.S. Democratic National Committee. It was surprising that Raskob had listed himself in "Who's Who" as a U.S. Republican, and his name had not been prominent among the candidates-and it was bold. There is no doubt of Raskob's capacity. By sheer ability he has lifted himself from a U.S. $5-a-week clerkship to his present position as millionaire chief of the General Motors Corporation, which has put the Cadillac, the Buick, and the Chevrolet where they are in the automobile world. Presumably the organizing talent which has made history in the motor world can adapt itself to a political campaign.
