Yet that is pre- eiseiy what the Republican press is doing. The defeat of every Democratic custodian of every horse watering trough from Maine to California is an- nounced as additional evidence that the electorate of the United States is already greasing the White House steps for Mfr.

Responsibility

Mayor McLevy's reelection and the figures t displays while just now resembling c laurel wreath for his brow may turn out before his term expires to be a crown Of poison ivy. For two years he has had the advantage of being the gociallst mayor Of an admin istratjon which was not Socialist. Now the entire Socialist ticket has ridden into offiee on the tail Of hls kite. How it wllI perform with the responsibility for its ac- tons Co be carried remains to be seen. No one denies that Mayor McLevy s the Socialist party in Bridgeport. He has been the s0- cialist party in that citg for a quarter of a century. He made his own fight when there was not a chance of victory. Now that a horde Of camp followers gre in offiee by him and through him and who are no more Social ists than l am it will De interest- ing to sit by and see whether the victorious general wlll be able to keep his forces ln line. It is an iroaie fact of history that the successful leader Of a revolution Is almost always shot by his fol- lowers, lf sou don't believe it look up the history of Mexico from iel9 te date.

Look at Bridgeport

One of the main reasons given by Republican analysts for what they describe as the Presidents loss of popularity is that his fel- low citizens, both Democrat and Republican, hate his ''socialistic" theories and policies. If that is true what explanation is to be given for the reelection of Jas- per McLevy as mayor of Bridge port2 Mfr. McLevy is a Socialist but his greatly increased majority cannot be interpreted as denot- ing increased membership in the Socialist party. He vas swept into office by votes which fore merly vent to the Republican OF Democratic ticket. In view of the fact that the Democrats ran third in the Bridgeport race it would appear that the greatest defec- ti0ns took place in that party. However. the Republican candi- date, clifford B. Wilson, was fore meTly mayor Of the citBpand once lieutenant governor of the state. He is a shrewd politician, made an able public servant, and IS popular. Yet AEr. Wilson's record and his ability could not dam the
 flood of Republican votes which went to Mayor McLevy. The point ! am trying to make is that fl the dislike of President Roose- veit's ''soeialisticp policies is as rampant among Republicans and Democrats as Republican leaders imagine, how do they explain the hundreds Of Republicans and Democratic votes east for Bridge ports Socialist Hayor2 The an- sWer is ready and easy: Local conditions upon which national Issues had no bearlngl" Exactly.

Attack Not Enough

The result of the Bridgeport election demonstrated once again that mere attack on the admin. istratlon in office is not enough to ensure it's defeat. It failed here at home, it failed in Bridge port, and 1t is bound to fail in the country at large the next presidential campaign. Mayor McLevy was aided not . little in his candidacy by the silly at- tempt to brand him as a Com- munist. He seized upon the stu- pldity of the charge, exposed it in its untruthfulness, and cashe6 in on exposure. The attempt that is constantly being made by Republican papers and Repubii- can orators to write President Roosevelt into the ranks of the Communists or the Socialists is just as silly and futile. 4 lie ex-' posed is Q deadly boomerang for the liar.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-11-08
All Grist

In addition to the qualifications already enumerated Mayor Mc- Levy has the invaluable faculty of capitalizing opportunities to his own political advantage. The gift of Federal funds for public improvements went to the credit not of the Democratic national administration and President Roosevelt where it belongs but to increase the stature of Jasper McLevy in the eyes of the voters of Bridgeport. In this particular he is not 8 whit different from Republican politicians who have, in this as in other states. made use of the money which President Roosevelt put at their disposal to build up opposition to his re- election and to stimulate hatred against the donor. Tn all fairness it must be conceded that May or McLevy was less brutal in his capitalization methods than his Republican models. He merely ignored the hand that fed his political fortunes while they are biting it off at the wrist.
