Let Elm Eat Mud
Philadelphia Record)


 The wolf pack has tasted blood. Defeat of the Reorganization Bill has touched off Republican Smear Roosevelt campaign which is signalized by the return to the political battlefront of the Repubi can National Committee.
 National Chairman John Hamilton starts the bali rolling by announcing the appointment of Franklyn Waltman, of the slicker ant-Roosevelt snipers among the Washington news corps publicity director"
 The Republican press announces MT Waltmans duties with scarcely attempt to conceal their nature It will be his task to smear Roosevelt with any mud he may be able to find
 Hereafter it can be predicted with certainty that if the administration recommends appropriation for lead pencils the will be greeted with cries of "Fascism" "Jacobinism' and "Antidsestab- lishmentarianism
 What the particular ism is won't matter as long has nothing whatever to do with the egis lation under consideration and has a vaguely ull- pleasant sound.
 The underlying idea of the COP strategy is to yell so loud that the public will forget Mir Roosevelt is trying do something about the economic situation of the country
 Since the reactionaries began to block the New Deal the nation is slipping back where it when MT. Hoover finished with it.
 For all the Republican National Committee cares it can keep right on slipping In fact the faster it slips the better Messrs. Hamilton Waltman. and friends will like it.
 Every million more unemployed will be so much
 
 House into a mud hut
 That this is the state of mind of the men who are running and financing the Roosevelt hate orgy is amply indicated by the striking absence of any constructive program the Republican side
 They will oppose every Administration measure without putting forward any tangible suggestions about what should be done about the crisis which has been brought upon the nation by their clamor against Government spending for recovery.
 Their propaganda shut off recovery funds and threw millions out of work.
 Now they plan to feed the unemployed with mud revive business with invecve against the President in place of customers and solve the farm problem by circulating the report that the democratic Presi- dent since Lincoln is a dictator at heart
 Watch the Smear Roosevelt" campaign It should have all the less attractive features of the Liberty League the Holding Company Bill fight and the tragic fiasco that sank the Reorganization Bill
 If the 1888 Republican drive produces any con- structve program that marks a real advance over the Hoover program will eat words and 1000 copies of this newspaper
 That crowd isn't interested in saving the country. They will never form an intelligent and constructive conservative opposition to the New Deal The hate Roosevelt" campaign is purely one of hys- teria and panic
 It has about as much to do with statesmanship as yelling Fire in crowded theater

to present indications, would come from the pump priming" funds. However, sizeable appropriations, probably the largest peace-time appropriations on record expected to be made for the Navy as well ss the Army and doubtless if that money is granted to those two departments great deal of military and naval activity will be seen in the north The Navys plans fairly definite toward that end at this time
 Ultimately, unless all signs fail, Alaska will figure in the national defense picture something like this: It will be on the northern end of Navy defense line running from the Aleutians south to Hawaii and Samoa. Naval bases will dot the Alaskan coast area Backing up these naval outposts will be army bases and doubtless an additional number of troops in the north. For service to the Army bases, the International Highway figures prominently With that roads construction motorized troop movements between the States and Alaska will be possible
 True, it probably will take a good many years to complete the entire picture but in the meantime Alaska will be becoming and strategic point in the national defense program, the an- nounced plans for Army and Navy bases foretel

ALASKA IN THE NATIONAL DEFENSE
 PROGRAM

An Army air base near Fairbanks contemplated as much three years ago appears to be destined fer construction with work possibly starting this aunrner News dispatches from Washington quote Chairman May of the House Military Affairs com mttee as saying the base will be built with plan of accommodating from 500 to 1000 planes and, if the money is made available in the pump priming" pro- gram, the War Department says the project can be gotten underway within 30 days
 The projected air base gives an idea of what the Presidents recommended spending proposal can mean to Alaska. Aside from the Fairbanks Army base, the Navy is planning base at Kodiak anc other defenses along the Alaskan It reported thatfapproximately one hundred and twenty millior will asked for defenses the coast including Alaska. which means, in the face of the announced plans for Territorial defenses, that large part oi it will be spent in the north
 Of course, the entire program is contingent to extent on what Congress finally does with the Presidents recommendation for appropriations ruii- ming into billions in effort to revive business activity. Money for the Fairbanks base according
