Whether Mr. Willkie will be regarded as a reborn Republican or Democrat nominated on the Republican ticket, his whole philosophy is as faithfully Jeffersonian as Mr. Roosevelt's is the reverse of that. In the traditional American political sense it is far more difficult to see how a Democrat could support Mr. Roosevelt, than to wonder how he could fail to support Mr. Willkie. Alexander Hamilton didn't think men could be trusted to govern themselves except through a selfperpetuating beneficent despotism. Mr. Jefferson asked, if man couldn't govern himself had he found angels to govern him? Plainly Mr. Roosevelt concurs with Hamilton and has practically uttered and surely acted the belief that both the annointed governor and his successor have been found. Many sincerely believe and faithfully follow the President on this old Federalist theory, which is their right. But that hardly justifies the President in castigating as ‘‘party renegades" all those Democrats who don't. If it were not for the bondage of the South to bitter memories of the Civil war, no southern Democrat could possibly follow Mr. Roosevelt. He has taken away from them protection of the two-thirds convention rule, ruined the export market for their principal crop, cotton, neglected to recognize the discrimination against them in freight rates and their competitive necessity for differentials in wage rates. No great political power since Thaddeus Stevens has been more unsympathetic toward their problems. Southern Democratic leaders who have opposed this have been condemned as ‘‘feudalists."' Great southern congressmen such as Garner, Robinson, Barkley, Byrnes, Clark, both Bankheads, Rayburn, Doughton and Marvin Jones have simply had to swallow it in the name of party loyalty, but it was so brutally inconsiderate that it could have left little room for love and loyalty. These great political shifts take time to reveal themselves but it becomes clearer daily that Mr. Roosevelt heads a new party which Harry Hopkins once described as ‘the "have-nots against the haves." * * * TWADDLE This campaign will be no pillow fight. Ex-Senator Reed was punished by the President for taking a walk by being called a sweat-shop. The President paddled Johnny Hane and Lew Douglas by saying they think more of dollars than humanity. I can't get excited about any of this. Jim Reed isn't a sweat-shop. An attractive lady in Kansas City named Nellie Donnelly got the idea of applying automobile quantity production methods to the manufacture of women's dresses. This made them at low cost and high excellence. Accordingly, she began to make so much money that a gang kidnaped her. Jim was her lawyer, This made him so mad that he swore to rescwe her without a ransom and to jail her abductors. This he duly did and his righteous wrath carried him over into romance. He married the gal. But that doesn't make Jim a Sweat-shop. I studied that case personally in NRA. Wages and working conditions in Nellie's factories were by so far the best in that industry that her code competitors' principal complaint was that she was setting standards too high for them to equal. Lew Douglas and Johnny Hane may care something about dollars, and who doesn't. But neither of them has been nearly as successful in corralling dollars as the President's own family-after, but never - before, his election in 1932.

O. P. farm leaders in congress are most enthusiastic about the prominence of Iowa's Gov. George Wilson in Wendell Willkie's agricultural campaign. The Capitol Hill group, who have devoted a lot of time and effort to preaching Republican doctrine in the grain belt, and who carried the ball on the farm plank, don't consider Governor Wilson to be any farm spokesman. However, it is possible that the real cause of the politicos' muttering is the fact that Wilson stole a march on them, by climbing aboard the Willkie bandwagon while they were still pooh-poohing Willkie as a Serious contender.

MUTTERS NAZI THINGS further ™ With German air raids and submarine attacks on shipping convoys threatening serious shortages of vital supplies, the British navy has put into active service a number of French war craft taken under control after the French-German armistice. British crews aided by French volunteers are manning the craft. Typical of the ships in service are those above, left to right, an escort' vessel, a destroyer and four sub-chasers. Fourth Delegate-I move to drop that word ‘‘abolish."' It's too strong. Sixth Delegate-But we propose to abolish the British rule, do we not? Fourth Delegate-Yes, but we should be more tactful. First Delegate (reaching the end) -We, therefore-solemnly publish and declare that the united colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown and that all political connections between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved. (Cries of ‘‘No!" "We are for peace and prosperity!"' "This wil] drag us into war!'' etc.) Fifth Delegate-I'll not sign it. I must sound out my constituents first. Sixth Delegate-I move we put the whole thing over until AFTER A GALLUP POLL! (Curtain with a dull thud.) public All of this demonstrates the fact that the United States, if it is not to be left entirely alone in the Pacific, must move quickly and must secure friends. To date, there are only two potential friends worth worrying about. ‘No. 1 is Great Britain, which in fact is America's first line of defense, and which might be saved if the United States gave major aid. No. 2 is Russia, the natural enemy of Japan, whom Japan fears more than she fears the United States. A hook-up between Russia and the United States could hamstring Japan, keep her powerless in the North Pacific. That is why the Roosevelt-Bullitt statement denouncing Russia is so important. Bullitt was the man who persuaded Roosevelt capitalistic First Delegate (resuming)-But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism Fifth Delegate-That's too strong.

Ne? First Delegate (resuming)-That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it. Washington, D. C. JAPAN'S RAMPAGE U. S. intelligence reports from the Far East stated late in July that Japan would join the Axis officially and actively just as soon as Hitler launches his big blitzkrieg on Britain. Meanwhile, the Japanese military have adopted the policy of causing as many incidents as possible to annoy the United States and to fan them up in the Japanese press. There is no question in the minds of U. S. officials that this strategy is being worked out in co-operation with Hitler and has two ends in view: First, to keep the American public worried about the Far East, so that the White House cannot become too absorbed with the plight of England during Hitler's blitzkrieg. Second, to convince the Japanese public that there is nothing to fear from the United States. The more the Japanese press attacks this country, and the more American citizens are beaten up in Shanghai, YO" Washington, D. C. JEFFERSON AND HAMILTON WASHINGTON. - The President should not be displeased at the departure of Democrats. The whole political scene has changed to a sort of game of "‘prisoner's base.'' The Republicans have nominated a Democrat of such characteristic color that Thomas Jefferson would recognize him as a kindred spirit long before he could ever distinguish Mr. Roosevelt from Alexander Hamilton. Mr. Roosevelt has held up to the yeomen, as Prince of Wales, Mr. Wallace, a Republican by heredity and long conviction, who says that he turned his political coat only because the Republicans hadn't done enough for agriculture. There is more in both Democratic and Republican principle than. is dreamt of in that philosophy. In the President's cabinet there are only two indubitable Democrats -Hull and Farley. There are now four Republicans-Stimson, Knox, Wallace and Ickes-two Socialists or something-Hopkins and Perkins- and a couple of no pronounced political parentage, Jackson and Morgenthau. As for Jeffersonian policy-decentralization of government - states rights - government by laws, not men-no personalized power-rotation in office-federal economy-as little government as is consistent with keeping men from injuring each other-Mr. Roosevelt opposes every one.
