toward minimum legislation
that essential bulwark of pro-
lection against exploitation? In
1889 he wrote in the Atlantic
Monthly that such laws, and I
quote him, may hurt the Amer
lean laborer instead of helping
him" Does not Mr.. Willkie know
that this week there are $120,-
100000 more in the American
workers envelope than in the
week when Roosevelt became
President?
Division Transferred 245
Northern Plants to South.
Wendell Willkie showed his
true colors when he boasted in
1884 that Commonwealth &
Southern maintained an Office in
New York to move Northern in
dustries into the South-where
low wage market prevailed. His
So-Called new industries division
transferred 245 Northern plants
to single Southern State.
This incident will cause every
worker in America to ask himself
just what kind of businessman
is Wendell Willkie? He has never
developed an industry or created
a single job, he has not been
counted among the men of enter
prise and initiative whose abilities
helped to make America. He has
been only a promoter of high
finance and defender of special
privilege for the small clique
who, in the reckless 20s, came
near to breaking America.
The Commonwealth & South
ern was formed as a gigantic
holding company, with book
values written up $500,o0O, 900
above true worth. 1t sold stock
as high as $50 a share in 1929
and left the investor holding it at
Sl.50 today. In the long run this
cost investors s750,000,000, and
this is the record of the corpora
ton that Wendell Willkie de-
scribed to a congressional COM
mittee in 1885 as "one of the fine
American business romances."
The central issue in this cam
paign is just this: Do the social
and econSmic philosophy of the
Republican candidate and the
company he keeps give you any
comfort and assurance for the
future? Or do they remind you
OF Herbert Hoover?
Mr.. Willkie has given his own
answer and identified himself:
On September Is he said, and
quote him, In 1888, when Frank
lin Roosevelt was first elected
President of the United States,
the nations of the world were
beginning to recover economi-
cally." How familiar this sounds.
For it is precisely this argument
Evening star., 1940-10-30

kie be overwhelmingly repudiat-
ed by the American people.
A President can work toward
liberalism only when his party
supports him. 1t was only an
overwhelming Democratic major
ity in Congress during Roosevelt's
first term that made possible a
humane policy toward youth and
the unemployed, a constructive
program of public works, a far
sighted guarantee of collective
bargaining, and law to estab-

nomic philosophy sounds like Mr..
Hoover, whose talk about social
security sounds like Mr.. Landon,
whose labor record looks like that
of Mr.. Girdler and Mr.. Weir,
whose business career was
perched on top of a speculative
stock pyramid, and whose public
career began when he led the
fight of the power monopoly
against the development of elec-
trio power for the people. The
only indispensable thing in this
campaign is that Wendell Will

Men and Women Know They
We're on Road TO Ruin.

The men, women and children
of America, who paid the toll for
Herbert Hoover's economic poll
cies in the deepness of their suf-
fering, do not agree with Wendell
Willkie that we were on the road
to recovery when Roosevelt took
office. They know that We were
on the road to ruin. They do not
want to see in the White House,
in the person of Mr.. Willkie, a
man whose every deed and asso-
citation tie him to the company
which got us on that dismal trail.
Mr.. Willkie is a man whose eco

that was advanced by Mr.. Hoover in
the 1882 campaign and ever since
the argument that Republican
do-nothing policies were hurry
ing us around the corner to pros
perity when, alas, the New Deal
came along and spoiled it all.
If Willkie believes, as he now
says, that the Hoover policies
were leading us to recovery and
if he believes, as he now says,
that the Roosevelt policies have
prevented recovery-then we
must conclude that Mr.. Willkie
would take us back to the policies
of Herbert Hoover and their
dreadful consequences-back to
the bread lines and the march
on Washington and the foreclos-
ures on homes and farms, back to
all the privation and misery of
the depression.

the belief that transport planes were

troops.
This army, formed only three

in the past three days and is play
ing a big part in holding the Greeks
in some sectors and is on the Of
fensive in others, dispatches from
the front reported.
Coupled with these reports was
today's high command announce
ment that Italian lines were hold
ing firm against Greek attacks and
that counter attacks were under
way behind heavy aerial forays
against the Greek front lines.
Premier Mussolini's own news
paper, II Popolo dTtalia, acclaimed
the speedy dispatch of the 18th
army.
Each division in the 18th army
was said to be made up of two in

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill, Nov. 3d.
When Henry Edward Miller decided
on a shiny new chair for his one
man barber shop he became the
recipient of the smallest loan ever
granted by the Reconstruction FL
nance Corp.
The Federal agency, which has
lent $1,000 000, 900, handled the
Miller application for $3.50 loan
with dispatch and Mr.. Miller repaid
the principal, plus $3.50 interest,
with like promptness.
But, alasi A smooth-tal sales
man skipped town with the money
and the chair never was delivered.
However, Mr.. Miller doesn't let
the unpleasant experience bother
him. Philosophically, he looks back
to the good old days when he used
to cut Woodrow Wilson'S hair at
Princeton.
Reminiscing, he doesn't even no.
tice the rust on his old chair.
