The Great Game Of Politics
Roosevelt and WoIIoes Criticized for Their
Reactions to Result ofElecton

tor Meade Tin no way better than
Mr.. Bennett) only emerged later
and only after the American Labor
party leaders had been to the White
House for conferences.
The further fact seems ignored
that though Mr.. Farley's candidate
was beaten, Mr.. Farley comes out
Of the tight with honor, his repu-
tation enhanced Is a politician who
plays the game on the level, is true
to his word and his friends, never
deals In the double cross. His fu-
ture in New York and national poll
tics remains to be seen, but, at any
rate, he has nothing Of which to
be ashamed.
OF course, the most surprising re-
action anywhere came from the
President and the Vice President.
In its lack Of realism, the flippancy
OF the formers remark about his
Hyde Park polling place is exceeded
only by the absurdity of Mr.. Wal
lace's contention that the great Re-
publican gains by which practical
control of Congress is lost to the
administration shows the people to
be pleased with the Roosevelt man.
agement Of the war, and the Presi-
dent to be more popular than ever.
1t is hard to imagine a grown man
seriously making so foolish an argu-
ment.
1t is disappointing that the Presi-
dent Is unable to take so clear an
expression of popular feeling in a
more sober and thoughtful mood. It
is too bad that he could not find it
in him to concede that there was,
perhaps, some justification for pub
lie discomfort; that things could be
improved; that now the election is
over, they would be.
Trouble Ahead Seen.
In particular, it is unfortunate
that he does not now try to establish
better relationship with Repub-
lican leaders. in Congress and out.
1t is q pity he does not see in the
result a chance to appeal to them to
use their new access of power for
closer cooperation with him, prom
Using more consultation on policies
and = more reasonable attitude to-
ward justified criticism, more recep-
tiveness to counsel from those out
side his own circle.
Instead, Mr.. Roosevelt, at his Fri
day press conference, seemed to
brush all these considerations aside.
He appeared to see In the returns
no evidence of popular desire for
more competency.
He seemed determined to proceed
along his own lines. as though the
result had been 4 Democratic VIC
tory instead Of an unforeseen re-
verse. This is disappointing.
Coalition Proposal Lauded.
If the President sees in the elec-
ton no reason to alter his attitude
on anything and If his Vice Presi-
dent sees In it nothing but vote Of
complete confidence, then there is
trouble ahead.
For no one else construes the re-
turns in that way and the next

ascertained from the capture Of
q German oficer and by analysis
Of German troop dispositions, the
German summer campaign, like
last summers, is an egregious
failure.
Atlantic Charter Affirmed.
The more important part Of
the speech, that cements the
coalition, is the second part. For,
in the form Of simple slogans,
Stain aflirms the basic principles
of the Atlantic Charter. includ-
ing "the restoration of democratic
liberties" and supports to the
full President Roosevelt's recent
statement, which has had enor-
nous effect in Germany. that
the Hitlerite clique will be pun
ished for this war and not the
German people.
Stains acceptance Of demo-
cratic liberties at the end of
the first quarter century OF the
October revolution on a nation
wide broadcast to the whole
Russian people, is a promise to
them as we'll as to the world,
and recalls Ambassador Litvi-
noff's speech in New York last
spring, in which he said that no
country, including Russia, would
be unchanged as a result of this
war.
There is one point in Stains
speech which is new, and does
not conform with anything pre-
viously said by Mr.. Churchill or
the President. Answering Hit
ler's announced purpose to de-
stroy Russia as a state and all
Russian military force, Stain
remarks with humor that this is
clear and illiterate," and then
says: 1T is not our aim to de-
stroy Germany, for it is impos-
sible to destroy Germany" and,
1T is not our aim to destroy all
military force In Germany
it is inadvisable but Hitler's
army can, and should be de-
stroyed."
Motives Of Speech Analysed.
This division between German
military force and Hitler's army
is unexplained. Obviously, there
is no other military force in Ger
many at present but Hitler's
army. Apparently he is trying
to split the military mind in
Germany, and Offset the Ger
man fear that either Germany
will be permanently occupied or
the German people turned over,
helpless, to the revenge Of their
armies.
1t also might be interpreted
as concession to the fear that
Russia, with her immense mill
tary land power, would dominate
the whole Eurasian continent
after this war. The concession is
apparently accompanied with a
warning, for he again tells the
Allies that unless their armies
establish themselves on European
soil, things may lend badly for
all freedom loving countries"
This point needs further clari-
fication.
Finally, Stain made as clear 4
contrast of the difference be-
tween the Hitler New Order and
coalition war aims as has been
made by any responsible states
man. In his statement of con-
trasting aims, he revealed for
any man in the street why this
coalition between nations with
various ideologies is possible, and
should give hospitality to no
element Of mistrust.
He avoids everything that might
cause further riffs. For instance,
there is no reference to the
future of the British Empire. It
is to be hoped that our left
wingers, with their motto of
agitation as usual" will take
note of this.
