Pure and Undefiled
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Quite evidently the Socialist party in America is not interested in winning, but in keeping an idea alive It's action in rejecting cooperation with the Communists its failure to reconcile the angry right wing of it's own membership and its persistence ln using label-Sociast-w is irritating to the bulk of the American people-al these suggest that the Socialists not really very much concerned aoou9 the vote they get in November.
 Presumably their main object is to keep their ranks pure and unsulied They want no traffic with Communists and they make no overtures to the bulk of trade unionists following Roosevelt None of these left right quite understands the nicetes of the Socialist movement which is and will be con- fined strictly to happy little family. Apart from the recurring dispute with dissident right wing, the national conventions of the Socialists remind one of nothing so much family reunion, where everybody has good time and nobody but members of the clan is welcome
 The renomination of MT. Norman Thomas that suave and humorous father of the Socialist family insures that the party will remain dignified but intellectual element in the political scene. Ii the Socialists allowed MT Thomas to stand for Congress in suitable district of New York, he might win and Congress he might express the Socialist point of view very effectively. But that's not what the Socialist tradition calls for.
 Alas it is to be feared that the Socialists have become just conservative in their methods as any other political party The group which proposes revo- lutionary innovations in American economic life is the victim of hidebound tradition in it's approach to the task of winning popular support

FAITH IN THE GOVERNMENT

"They simply put the cash the barrel head. ;.
 In these simple words Secretary Morgenthau told the story of the subscription the governments request for billion dollars to carry its business affairs.
 Probably no better barometer of the financial con- dition of the country be found than the reply of the people the offer by the of bonds by which to raise current money. It reflects clearly the ample faith that exists the stability of the government and the nation and it reveals again that there is money in ejaculation after the cramps following the Hoover-regme depression.
 The fear that enveoped the country like shroud in those terrible days after the 29 crash has van ished. There is vgor and hope in the hearts of the people. The wheels of industry hummng along at near the old peak days Men are back at work Homes being constructed by the thousands throughout the land. America is back an even keel under the guiding hand of a kindly and sympa- thetic government the leaders of which not afraid to face the crisis boldly and quickly; those leaders who today carrying on the battle for complete rehabilitation for all the people |.
 No finer compliment to that leadership could be given than the big subscription to its request for money to carry forward the program. The walls of those who raise the cry of too much spending by the government sound rather empty in face of the surge to buy government bonds The great mass of they know that wise spending under able leadership will not wreck the ship of state but rather will pro- mote its enterprises and multiply it's vast resources

THAT AMAZING c. 0. P. PLATFORM

If one of the proposed platforms to come before the national Republican convention in Cleveland meets approval it is evident that the Grand Old Party is going to swing far into the Democratic field for of it's material with aim of capturing the votes. Five Republican organizatons-the National Republican Club the Women's National Republican Club, the New York Young Republican Club the National Republican Builders and the Young Wo- mems Republican Club of New York-have drafted a platform for presentation at Cleveland which, if adopted will leave the Republican party little else than a
 For example we find under the heading re employment the request for "co-operation of gov ernment with agriculture, industry and labor in pro- viding jobs for the unemployed" That one must have been lifted bodily of the Roosevelt program. But we read further and find the proposed platform calling for enforcement of laws against monopoly and unfair trade practices for the better protection of labor and small business" There's loud echo of the old NRA in that unfair trade practices clause
 And the proposed platform doesn't shy at relief many Republican speakers have done. Rather IL

 Women are under a most favor able direction of the stars today. There is good luck to those who wear new clothing and seek new friendships.

accepts it very much as the Democrats have done. It suggests Federal loan to the States for relief of the unemployed to the extent necessary for all actual relief needs which the States unable to meet and then continues for Federal aid to the develop of practical program of housing for the lowest income groups to be planned and carried out by the States local communities and individual enterprise " Aside from deegating adm.nstration to the States on larger scale it is generally the relief policy in effect
 Then after shouting for months about President Roosevelts social security program the proposed publican platform comes out boldly for "an honest and workable plan of old-age pensions and unemploy ment insurance with Federal aid to sound State meas ures, and revision of the Federal Social Security Act to eliminate provisions which are unsound and unavoidable" In other words the Republicans appear to endorse the Roosevelt legislation but they to change it little bit it will look like bright new Republican idea But that isn't all. The proposed platform wants cooperation with the State in pro- viding opportunities for youth' Why not just flat footedly endorse the National Youth Administration instead of throwing up such a smoke screen?
 Then there are several other blanks equally ing view of the fact that they carry the Republican label For example: Maintenance of labors right of collective bargaining through representatives of Its own choosing without interference from any source uniform State laws and interstate compacts for the establishment of minimum wages maximum hours abolition of sweatshops and improvement of working condtions cooperation with other nations to revive world trade and re-estabish international currency stability national program fer the conservation and development of natural resources, prevention of floods and soil erosion; cooperation with other tions for the limitation and control of armaments and the traffic in arms"
 If this platform of the five big Republican or ganizaons is criterion of what the Republican con- vention proposed to do at Cleveland, the platform committee could itself lot of work by running down to Washington and picking up a copy of the Roosevelt platform.
