All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved. The Future of Republicanism Much has been written lately about the future of the Re- publican party. Ogden L. Mills, rated by some as the best brain in the ; party, has been delivering a series of. lectures on “The Future of the Republican Party or The Defense of the Individual” be- fore the New School for Social Research. Robert Moses, defeated last year for governor of New York and a representative of the eastern liberal wing, has writ- ten a magazine article in which he asserted that the party needs, above all else, a few well-placed and timely deaths. Pre- sumably he means politically, if not physically. Even Charles Michelson, publicity maestro for the Demo- crats, has chimed in with a bit of advice as to what the Re-| , publicans should do. He was apparently sincere and his thoughts shouldn't be ignored. He was a Republican before he was hired by Messrs. Raskob and Shouse in 1928 to push barbed spears into the elephant’s anatomy, the facile sort of fellow who could do an equally good job for the Republicans as for the Democrats. But the most illuminating thing—and the most encourag- ing—to the rank and file of Republicans is the current series of broadcasts by the party under the leadership of John Hamilton. Hamilton broke no records for effectiveness when he lost all but Maine and Vermont in the last election, but that may not be his fault. At the current writing his effort is toward putting the party on a new and sound basis. To reconcile Mr. Mills, one of the old-guard, with Mr. Moses who wishes the old-guard would retire, and to enlist the interst of. those mil- lions of Americans whom the party must convince if it is again to-be a major factor in American life is his announced goal. Addressing the rank and file of the Republican party on the relief question, and hinting at advocacy of the dole, Hamilton says: “Won't you Republicans talk with those on relief in your home town, talk they think on this question of shaps you and they will sare one is beteer: morale. Per! believe finally that work relief, despite its Perhaps you won't. We want to know. Let your senators representatives here in Washington know what you find out.” Turning to the labor issue, he expressed agreement with Styles Bridges, senator from New Hampshire, when the latter said: “Employers must not hire labor and conduct an espionage system against workers. Workers not seek to gain their goal— no matter how just that goal may be—by euch ill-considered action as the sit-down strike.” Then comes this bit: “Tn this connec another Republicans back peta Where find te Popesseatenivan eee fair capital dominating our party in any locality, vote in the pri- maries to kick them out. Where you find business men of their responsibilities to their employes and to their community— and that’s the kind you will generally fi@—work with them shoulder to shoulder.” What Mr. Hamilton is trying to do, in short, is to revivify the Republican party by bringing it in line with common sense, the golden rule and the will of the people. It is the only method by which success can be achieved, That success can hardly be expected to come in 1938, al- though it will be surprising if the Republicans do not make gains in next year’s by-elections. The odds are against it com- ing in the presidential election of 1940. But with the “eco- nomic royalists” flocking to the Democratic party, as they most certainly are doing now, it points in the direction of vic- tory when the political pendulum swings again. 2 The Welfare Clause For the first time in the recent history of the United States the supreme court has decided a major case on the basis of the welfare clause. } This emphasizes the change in direction which came first with the Washington minimum wage decision and then with the Wagner act case. It means that the court AS NOW CON- STITUTED is giving life % the constitution, making it ap- “sae centred problems. It obviates the need for amending the constitution and, at the same for changing the court, ee ee It makes a sham battle of the so-called court fight. Re gardless of what happens to the bill now in congress the liberal viewpoint has prevailed. It is NOW prevailing over the op- position of a court minority and with a number of justices well past 70 on the majority side. This and the preceding decisions means that the court has abandoned narrow and legalistic interpretations of the constitu- tion and has substituted for them a broader and more humane reading of that great document. : : It recognizes that some problems, unthought of when the constitution was written, now are NATIONAL problems and can be solved only by national action. The times have pushed . a Lied beyond state borders. n the whole, this is an advance for the American people. ‘The only real question is whether they can meet th eae the problems which this wider latitude in law-making offers to 4 England was faithful to - ettical ‘ of the sizaw hat season.
