Of easing their intellectual tension,
they would endanger the collective
security of the world. When st. John

he is at 1t again. He reports to the
London Observer that America Is quite
dangerously enraged over Londons

| FaSciSm of Coughl1n and Lemke was
defeated. Socialism and Communism
were repudiated. The same election
swept his party into Congress. giving
him an even stronger majority than
he had had during his first term.
The President emerged with enor-
nous prestige and an enormous re-
sponsibility-the responsibility of in
terpreting, by his policies, the national
will of the American people for peace
progress, greater security, greater
justice and more stable and universal
prosperity, inside the framework OF
liberal democracy.
Last Friday, almost exactly II
months later, the most popular OF
Presidents suffered a defeat at the
hands Of his own Congress, so over
Whelming and decisive that if we lived
under a cabinet and parliamentary
system, and were Mr. Roosevelt a
prime minister instead Of President,
he would either have to resign and
call new election or radically revise
his cabinet and his policies.
Since we do not have such system,
We are faced by fundamental divi-
sion between the legislative and eXecu-
tive branches of the Government,
with Mr.. Rooseyelt's term not yet
half expired.
This is not cause for rejoicing. 1t
puts this Nation in a serious situation.
Seldom, if ever. in our history has
political career reached such heights
and such depths in so short space
of time. Seldom has there been so
enormous swing in public opinion
in the course of a few months as
there has been in this less than a
year and half. And 1t is pertinent,
right now, to ask why.
Two Major Crises.
President Roosevelt has undergone
two major crises in his career. The
first was the crisis Of his too-great
victory. The second is now upon
him. and is the crisis Of his most
spectacular defeat.
The crisis precipitated by his VIC
tory was obvious on the day after
the election. The President had to
choose, then, when he stood in the
light of overwhelming confidence and
approval, whether he would consol-
idate his gains, conciliate the animos-
tiles engendered by the campaign and
interpret the victory as a mandate to
seek the widest consensus of COL
laboration, or whether he would pro-
ceed into his second term in the war
like spirit of his final Madison Square
Garden speech-a speech, incidentally,
that was entirely unique in his whole
campaign. The For all these things
We have just begun to fight" speech.
The speech in which he said that the
forces of privilege" had met their
match in his first term, and in the
second would meet their master"
