NO LEADERSHIP, NO
DEFENSE

On one vital point the American peo-
pie show Enthusiastically that they are
united. They are as one in demanding
that the United States shall be so
armed as to make a hostile attack
upon the Western Hemisphere a sui
cidal act.
In his Farewell Address, Washing
ton foreshadowed the Monroe Doc
trine. In 1928, when the Nation was
comparatively weak, the doctrine was
declared. AS Jefferson said, it set the
course of the American ship of state
for all time.
Overt attempts to establish or eX-
tend anti-republican systems in this
Hemisphere have been repulsed, no
tably by Monroe, Lincoln, Grant
Cleveland and Theodore Roosevelt.
Spain, Russia, France, Great Britain
and Germany have tested the will OF
the United States in its protection OF
free government in this Hemisphere
and have found it as mbending as a
bar of steel.
In the face of new threats by new
powers armed with new weapons, the
American people are determined that
this Hemisphere shall be ringed as by
a charged electric cable, which tres
passers will touch at their death
peril.
VIII this determination be trans
lated into effective action soon, an
be made visible by adequate force ir
readiness against any attack?
SO far as Congress is concerned
yes.
SO far as the New Deal Administra.
ton is concerned, no.
Incompetence, confusion, discord
and political chicanery tell the story
of the New Deal in all national affairs
1t has failed in every branch of gov
eminent. The presumption that it will
now change its character and builc
up hemisphere defense with prompt.
ness, wisdom, and unselfsh devotion
to the national welfare is merely
wishful thinking and contrary to the

tiOnal defense. No plan can be accom-
plished, because erratic incompetence
can neither plan nor adhere to a plan
AS a necessary element of national
defense and enforcement of the Mon.
roe Doctrine, the people must have
competent leadership. Since they are
determined to have defense, and
prompt defense, it follows that they
will thrust aside incompetence and
choose leaders who con make their will
effective.
The process of arming the United
States for the protection of free gov
eminent in this Hemisphere is now in
operation. The people are now offered
a leader who can and will promptly
make the Nation and the Hemisphere
secure.

GLASS AND JEFFERSON
BOOED

The words of the eighty-two old
Nirginian-one of the country's really
great statesmen-were drowned out
by a chorus of boos and jeers which
correspondents recorded came from
many of the delegates seated in the
convention arena intermingled with
cheers from the galleries.
Never before had such an amazing
spectacle taken place in a national
convention. Never before had a DEM
ocratic convention ever displayed any
thing but ardent applause for utter
ances of Thomas Jefferson. Nor has a
Republican National Convention ever
shown anything but enthusiasm and
affection for the words of Abraham
Lincoln.
But under the lash of the White
House political machine, nothing APP
parently remained sacred to the dele
gates at this convention. The plan OF
Mr.. Roosevelt's New Deal satellites to
renominate him for third term must
succeed-nothing must stand in its
/ way! If the plan clashed with the phil,
osophy Of Jefferson, the party founder
then down with jefferson!

FORWARD
BY FRANKLIN WALTON


AS time gives a perspective to what
is happening this year, historians in
all probability may record that the
great Democratic Party came to it's
end at its 1910 National Convention.
The exact hour of the passing of the
party may be put down at one hour
and one-half before midnight on July
IT, 1910, when duly elected delegates
booed and jeered quotation from
Thomas Jefferson, the founder of the
party.
The booing of Jefferson's words
came when the venerated Senator Car
ter Glass, of Virginia, mounted the
convention rostrum to place in nomi-

REAL DEMOCRATS
PUSHED ASIDE

Amazing though the spectacle was,
nevertheless it symbolized this years
Democratic National Convention. Life
long Democratic leaders early in the
proceedings were pushed to one side
while such usupers of the party and
apostates as Harry Hopkins (once
registered as a Socialist and Harold
L. Ickes (for years a radical Repub-
lican) assumed control Of the pro-
ceedings.
What Thomas Jefferson believed
and taught means little to these men.
For years such figures as Washington,
Jefferson, Madison and jackson have
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1940-07-25

been sources of amusement to them.
The fiery Virginian, Carter Glass, long
has been the butt Of their jests and
sneers.
1t is no wonder that correspondents
reported that many of the delegates
were at first bewildered and then sick
at heart 1t is no wonder that pail of
gloom hung low over this political
gathering. Too late some of the Dem
ccratic delegates realized their party
had been captured by men with alien
and anti-Democratic philosophers. In
the closing hours of the convention,
when the White House successfully
iammed Secretary of Agriculture
Henry A. Wallace down their throats,
they struggled to retain their self
respect, but it was too late.
None but the witless and those over
Whelmed by emotional fervor accepted
as sincere Mr.. Roosevelt's blatant dis
avowal of any desire for third term.
The record of what he and his friends
did to everyone who dared project
himself as a candidate for the nomi-
nation was too fresh in mind.

Mr.. Roosevelt was as smart and
slick as the Chicago sewer superin-
tendent who was secreted in the con-

of the crudest and most tragic political

Disclosure of what Mr.. Roosevelt de-
sired in this regard so angered dele
gates from farm states that they booed
every time the name of Wallace was
mentioned.

the big city and eastern Democratic
machines, Nh Wallace would not have
been nominated. Obviously delegates
