Sees Menace to Freedom.
1t was inevitable that this should
be so. The bungling in foreign policy
in the last few months has been ap-
palling. The issues have become
sharper and sharper, the abuses in
government and of power more and
more glaring. The French worker
and' the average Frenchman, with his
passionate belief in freedom and
democracy, has seen the growing
power of fascism in Italy and Hitler
ism in Germany. He regards the latter
not only as possible menace to the
peace and security of France, but he
sees in the whole Fascist philosophy
a menace to the things in which he
fundamentally believes. He is not
separated from these PHILOSOPHERS by
5000 miles of ocean. The news
papers, radios and agents of both
systems are as near to him as Penn
sylvania is to New England. He sees
signs and portents in his own coun-
try. Marshal Petain gives his blessing
to Col. de la ROGUE, the leader of
the Croix de Feu and he remembers
Eindenburg. An easy-going liberal at
titude no longer seems to him suffi-
cient. The vote last Sunday was a
vote against fascism, not a vote for a
Communist or even a Socialist revolu-
ton. Neither are at all likely in the
country which is pre-eminently the
land Of the small owner. Few French
men will vote for general eXpropria-
ton. THE Frenchman wears his

Furthermore, although the Com

Error Admitted.

The mistake on the part of the
Gandon strategistS now is conceded,
but, on the other hand, they had no
answer to the question of Hearsts
support in other States which might
have been diminished had any hostility
to Hearst been shown.
AS a matter of fact, this question
of Hearst support in politics is some-
thing that is rather difficult to
measure on an asset or liability basis.
Opponents of Hearst say his crusade
for Landon has hurt the latter's cause.
On the other hand, it is recalled that,
while Hearst came out for Garner in
the 1882 e-convention campaign,
he maintained a friendliness to Mr..
Roosevelt's candidacy and on one
occasion Mr. Roosevelt went out of
his way to win Hearst help by salts
flying the California publisher on the
League of Nations issue. Mr.. Roose-
welt. it will be remembered. had cam
paigned the country in 1920 as a
vice presidential nominee in support
of the League of Nations, and then
in 1882 sacrificed his convictions
in order to get Hearst aid in winning
the nomination.
Hearst was not only instrumental
at the Chicago convention four years
ago in throwing the necessary votes
of Texas and California which had
been pledged to Garner and thus
assuring the Roosevelt triumph. but
the publisher personally contributed
$25,000 to the Roosevelt National
campaign.
Support Shifts.
II Is interesting to recall that Hearts
aid was given to Hoover in 1928 and
that the chain publisher has felt free
to support either the Republican or
Democratic ticket as he pleased. His
entry into the California primaries was
in line with a policy of attempting to
put his newspapers back Of winning
candidate.
In the coming campaign. the Hearst
support of Landon, should the latter
be the nominee, can hardly be made an
issue by the Democrats, for, after all,
the latter have at various times ac-
cepted Hearst aid and the real issue
whether Landon will or will not be
subject to the control of any man or
group of men-is no different than
that which faced Mr.. Roosevelt in 1882
when he accepted aid from various
sources that today are opposed to his
reelection.
Gov. Landon is still in the lead for
the Republican nomination. nowith-
standing the mix-up in California.
Eastern Republicans like him, based
on what they know about his record
and his abundance of common hon.
iesty and common sense. Whether
some one else could make more dra-
matte appeal and whether the Ma
tional convention will select some one
like Senator Vandenberg, Senator
Borah or Senator Steiwer because they
have been more active in the Senate
and hence are more closely in touch
with national affairs than has been the
Kansas Governor, is something that
will be turned over often in the minds
Of delegates and Republican leaders
between now and the convention next
month. But the lead is still with Gov.
Iandon.
