There is no question about the ser
vice Mr.. Wendell Willkie has rem
dered the Republican party in freeing
it Of the isolation label and breaking
the blighting grip upon its organiza-
tion Of the group which has opposed
any form of international coopera-
ton.
It is true there still remain among
the Republicans a few irrcconcila-
bles, who are welded to the impossi-
/ bic idea that after the war we can live
safely without reference to the rest Of
the world. Despite the fact that twice
in twenty years that notion has
been proved terribly false, they still
cling to it. But there are such men
among the Democrats, too, and what
the National Committee did at Chica-
go in adopting the Willkie resolution
was to remove the stigma from the
party as a whole Had it failed to do
that it would have been in a very bad
situation, indeed. For one thing, it
would have driven away from its can
didates millions Of Republicans who
think as Mr. Willkie thinks on this
subject For another, it would have
alienated much Of its press support
Finally, it would have been forced
into a position where, justly or un-
justly, the quality of its patriotism
would have been questioned.
mn#
Rejection Of the Willkie proposals
would have been exactly what the
Democratic politicians most wanted.
They then could have put the Repub-
licans on the defensive. They could
have practically ruined them in the
campaign. But Mr., Willkie did a great
deal more than serve the Republican
party in overcoming the isolationists
at Chicago. The real service is to the
country. AS a result Of the Chicago
action all possibility of aid and com
fort to the enemy from the campaign
this fall has disappeared. AS a result
Of that action there is now no possi-
bility Of any basic question concern
ing the war being the issue.
On the contrary, the Republican
stand is the most convincing demon
stration of national unity since Pearl
Harbor 1t is unequivocal notice to the
enemy that both parties in the United
States are utterly behind the Presi-
dent not only in prosecution of the war
and in determination that there shall
be no peace short of complete victory,
but upon the attitude of this nation
after the war. In brief, so far as our
objectives are concerned there is no
division in the country and only one
party. This does not mean that all
Republicans or all Democrats are sat
istied with the way Mr.. Roosevelt is
conducting the war With what he
is trying to do they are in accord.
But, with the way he is doing it large
number are extremely dissatisfied
and with reason to be- Throughout the
country there is resentment over the
waste Of the public funds and the
fusal to cut down on non-defense
penditures. And there is vast irritation
over the confusion and incompetency

useless persons on the pay roll; over
the lack of a sound ~ policy; over
