who has often sponsored liberal
causes with vehemence. But Mr..
Borahs progressivism has never
been strong enough for him to
take the last leap that would have
made him the great liberal leader
in the country.
He has steadfastiy Illuminated
against the old guard and equal
" regularly voted for their candi-
dates. He was for T.. r. IN 1912
-uEtil T. r broke with the regu-
lar Republican machine and form
ed the Progressive Party. He
was sympathetic with the ideals
and purposes OF the elder LaFol-
lette until that gentleman be-
came a candidate for President on
an Independent ticket Always
his bark has been progressive but
his bite has been regular Republic
can.
The truth is. that Mr.. Borah is
too much Of Drima donna to be
a great leader He is at his best
in oppOsitiOn- not in leadership.
Furthermore, he is a political
oppOrtunist-al almost as much so
as Mr.. Roosevelt. This in itself
makes it impossible for him to be
q true progressive, because al
though opportunism often mas
querades as liberalism it is liberal
only so long as being liberal is
politically expedient. Opportun-
ism is liased not on principles but /
on popularity
SO for example, the wOuId-be 1
liberal Mr. Borah has been caught
in the iileshes of the Townsend
plan and he has advocated cur
rency imitation. Both of these
measures, while popular, are any 1
thing but liberal. They would
bring suffering to masses Of peo-
pie.
AT the same time he is opposed
to RECOMMENDATION. in this he has
been soundly liberal although
many liberals believe in regimen
tation-so long as they can be the
colOnels of the regiment.
Mr.. Borah is, in many ways one
Of the great tragedies IN American
political life Intelligent, able, a
good fighter, great orator, I
warm sentimentalist he is never
theless a man who lacks political I
stability and consistency. As he I
is intolerant Of the ideas OF others !,

| he is intOlorant when others re-
iect his own views. This makes
him hard TO work with. He must
be the center Of the stage-and
as he has a great sense Of the
dramatic he Invariably puts in a
I good show. But no one. including
Mr. BOrah, can tell from day TO

be he might well find himself in
the White House after the coming
election This is another way Of
saying that the instincts Of the
voters who are for Borah are
s0under than their knowledge OF
him is accurate.
They are for BOrah because IN
their minds no represents fear

ship, divorced from the control Of
the Eastern conservatives. He is
in fact, neither a leader nor an
executive nor a consistent pro-
gressiEe.
The new Republican voters
and the old ones who are dis

leadership-want, about all,
leader who is fearless and inde-
pendent They do not want re-

But at the same time they do
not want a man who is undepend-
able and whose political princi-
Piles shift according to the gusts
of popular emotions. This is one
of the real reasons why they do
not want Franklin Roosevelt.
They sense that he cannot be re-
lied upon and that he will trim
his sails to any wind.
As a matter Of fact they are
tired of trimmers. They want
leader who will say what he be-
lieves and will stick to II.
Men who today oppose the bO-
nus and tomorrow say that while
they oppose the bonus they think
it should be paid. can get nowhere
with the American voters. The
opponents Of the bonus correctly
lppraise this sort of straddling as
weakness. The advocates of the
bonus are not satisfied that he is
