Gov. Thomas E. Dewey is on record in favor of strong defense measures and international collaboration. Gov. Earl Warren is like-minded. Neither of these nominees is anything like the type the Communists would prefer to see at the head of our government. So, from this point onward, the Communists have little to gain by trying to defeat Truman. We rather imagine that their enthusiasm for Wallace will wane somewhat in coming months.

Dewey and Warren cannot take victory for granted. But it is only fair to ask of the outwardly confident Democrats: “Who beat him once?” And the answer is that Franklin Roosevelt beat him once, in the middle of a world war. F. D.

No one of comparable stature s on the horizon in the Democratic Party today ‘to challenge Mr. Truman’s position The Republicans in 1884 foresaw that they must have the electoral votes of the State of New York to win over Grover Cleveland, that State’s Governor, who seemed certain to be the Democratic nominee. They believed Blaine stood a better chance to defeat Cleve- land than Arthur. Arthur was rejected, Blaine was nominated, and even so, Cleveland was elected.
