The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-01

Although the winning Of the vi
said, "the Republican party Is Intense
lens, both foreign and domestic while
They will arise as an aftermath
OF the war, accentuated by our ten
year debacle under the reactionary
New Deal. They will call for the
wisest craftsmanship and the best
and most patriotic efforts of all our
citizens.
"The problem OF lasting world
peace must be met courageously and
realistically. We must approach this
In spirit Of friendly cooperation
with the other nations OF the world,
keeping In mind the welfare OF our
own country"
Mr.. Spangler said the Council, Or
gani2cd with the cooperation Of
Senator Charles l.. McNary and
Representative Joseph W. Martin,
Republican leaders Of the Senate
and House, would hold an early Or
gani2atlon meeting at q central
point to chart plan Of inquiry and
action during the coming year. 1t Is
expected that the group, chosen
from the elected representatives OF
the Republican Party, will organize
Itself into BubcommitteeS for the
study OF important segmcntS Of the
postwar economy, with the idea OF
seeking ways for accomplishing
swiftly and successfully the change
over from war TO peace-time pro-
duction and living.
Recommendation OF the Council
will be submitted to the Republican
National Committee prior TO the
next National Convention,
Research and clerical aids will be
provided for the Council and the
committees 80 as TO make possible
the most searching inquiry and de-
vclopment Of facts leading 10 con-
structiyo planning.
Mr. Spangler pointed out that all
Republican leaders will DO consulted
upon the program, including former
President Herbert Hoover, and the
last two Republican presidential
candidates, Alfred M. Landon and
Wendell Willkie. Outstanding
spokesman OF agriculture, labor, In
dustry, and finance also will be In
yited TO advise with the Council
"When this war Is won," Mr.,
Spangler said In announcing the
Council, I'VE will be confronted with
n debt burden created by Wasteful
spending before the war, and by
the war itself, which will be truly
appalling. The tax load Will strain
our capacities TO the utmost. Our
industrial plant, geared TO total
war, will overnight be compelled TO
return 10 peace time activities. Mil
lions Of men and women now en-
ployed In our war effort must be
returned TO profitable employment
In private life. Ten million men and
women In our armed forces must be
provided with decent Jobs when they
come home. We will face an impoy-
crIshed and demorali2ed world With
out trade or commerce,
"As we look ahead we are acutely
aware that never before In all our
history has call come for n high
er peace-time courage, n more UNI
selfish peace time devotion 10 DUTY
or for more real statesmanship, We
must build Il better and happier
nation and do our full share IN
building peaceful and better
world"
Referring TO the work OF the
Council, Mr.. Spangler said, I'm our
studies we WlSt plan for an abun-
dance as against the New Deal phil
osophy OF scarcity which Is rapidly
bringing US to n condition where our
people will be hungry. We must
plan to create instead OF destroy
We must make II possible for bus
mess, big and little, 10 succeed and
not to be ruined by irresponsible
bureaucratic interference and ar
bitrary control. We must plan to
restore TO the states and TO the peo-
pie the powers which over the past
ten years haze been usurped by the
Executive in Washington. We must
plan for a free and prosperous agri-
culture, labor conditions which Will
insure labor It's Just share and con-
ditions which will permit industry
to expand, grow, develop and to
produce the things which WI. add
TO our standard Of living"
