From London it was reported the British view was that anti-Communism was not a policy that could be carried out through international action. Rather, Britain seeks to prevent the division of the world into Communist and anti-Communist nations, hoping thereby to lessen the possibility of another Armageddon. The German press and Russian press ipped insults. In Tokyo the Japanese Cabinet ap- proved a record-breaking budget of 3,041,000,000 yen, most half of it for military purposes.

Watson, of Indiana. It sums up in a nutshell a our ultra-conservatives today. And it sounds a warning to the liberals of America. What courses lie open to the forces of reaction in the wake of the New Deal’s avalanche? There are two: They can attempt to rebuild the Republican party a for lable machine; Or they can follow the prescription of Doctor Watson, join the New Deal, and work on it from within. That the latter course is far the more likely dictated by a cursory glance at American histor | Jefferson, like Roosevelt, created a popular p: | of invincible voting power. But the reactions the day soon went along, and the Democratic w more and more conservative.

We have barely begun to tackle the social security problem. We have been thrown out at first base by the Supreme Court on wage and hour regulation prohibition of child labor, the Guffey coal act, the A.AA. and other vital New Deal readjustments in ur economic machinery. And already on the horizon are signs aplenty that the men who fought the New Deal with every weapon they had, fought with blows below the belt as well bove, are not at all averse to a swift about-face. ne, like Hearst, have made is already. Othe like James P. Warburg, made it before election. And many more are getting in line. The New Deal now faces its greatest danger. So long as the opposition was in the open it could be effectively combated. But boring from within is much difficult to combat, particulscly when 1t red by wealth and power Roosevelt, to be sure, ¥ assured the nation that he is going to expand the N:w Deal, not contract it. Praise be. But let no liberal rest on his oars. Let no militant advocate of the New Deal go to bed with the notion that the battle is over. Let no New Dealer neglect to remember that the number of ultra-conservatives in Congress who are within the Democratic party can- not be counted on the fingers of one’s hands. Reaction right now is disorganized. But it isn't beaten. And it shows every evidence of following Jim Watson’s advice. Unable to lick the New Deal, it moves to join it.
