The Foreign Policy Myth

THE existing situation in China is
Il one of incalculable danger, as
Gen. Barrows observes.
The overthrow of the only stable
government in China is threatened.
The loss of the northern provinces
of China coveted by Soviet Russia is
imminent.
Our own military plan for defeat
ing the japanese armies in China IS
impaired and perhaps destroyed.
In the face of these shocking
facts, says Gen. Barrows:
eve are asked to SUPPORT
President Roosevelt because of his
foreign policy, yet We are not told
what it is or Dhat presidential prom
ises and commitments have been
made.
"NeUer in our history has
America been so powerfut as norD,
neUer so DESTROYS of just interna-
tionol decisions, neUer so ready to CO.
operate.
"Yet neUer has our foreign policy
seemed so WEAK, so OPPORTU-
MIST, so FUTILE"
OF ALL the many reasons why
" President Roosevelt should be
DEFEATED there is none more con-
vincing and conclusive than his in
competency in foreign relations.
He has bungled domestic affairs
so consistently and habitually, with
impairment of American institutions
and standards of living, that there
is encouragement and despair at
home.
But he has muddled foreign af-
fairs and international relations so
persistently, with impairment of
American prestige and interests
abroad, that the winning of the war
has been made more difficult and
costly and even the conditions of
peace are in confusion.
The record of President Roosevelt
is weak in all parts, but weakest of
all in the one part for which he claims
credit for superior wisdom.

DOUBTFUL STATES
The situation in some of the

NEW YORK: The Democrats

atty in New York City and say
the Republicans can't match
that upstate. The Republicans
say the Democratic plurality in
New York City may go below

and Allegheny County pitts

welt a slim victory. Republicans
say the Democratic plurality in
Philadelphia will be below U.s.

Roosevelt Odds
Drop in Frisco

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. g.
Republicans gained new ground
on the San Francisco betting
market when wagers were posted
that President Roosevelt would
not carry this city by 5000 votes,
The drop in the Democratic
election stock was registered after
both local betting commissioners
reported Roosevelt money to be
hesitant in covering bets that the
President would not carry Cali
fornia by 100000 votes--a drop OF
100000 since the general election
campaign opened.
In San Francisco. even money
was offered earlier in the cam
paign that Roosevelt would carry
this city by $4,000 Since then
this figure dropped to $4,000, and
today reached a new low of $4,000.

THE final and devastating proof OF
l. this fact, said Gen. Barrows, has
been afforded by the recent and
tragic events in China.
"This crisis" he declared, "Dhich
has been discernible for months, has
been met by the President with indi-
ference, complocency and timidity in
the face of Danger"
The appalling thing is that the
manner in which the President has
met the dangerous situation in China
is his FIXED PATTERN in all
dangerous situations inv diving
foreign relations.
His conduct of our foreign rela-
tions and his general neglect OF the
American policy for the settlement of
the peace" said Gen. Barrows,
Seems to me the weakest part of his
record.
"In the highly important relations
with our allies the President seems
VOICELESS AND FEEBLE.
"He is FOLLOWING and not
leading.
"He has announced no AMERI-
CAN policy either in Europe or in
Asia"

Jdps on Leyte

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HQ..
PHILIPPINES. Nov. 6 (INS)-
Gen. MacArthur's battle hardened
doughboys were fighting their way
into the last Jap stronghold on
Leyte Island today-the belea/
guered Ormoc sector. Z
They have captured the town OF
Pinamopoan on the northern flank
of the coastal corridor on the
northwest portion of the island
and are showing their way SOUTH
ward in a furious campaign to an
initiate the Japs before they can
escape from Ormoc Bay to Cebu
or other nearby islands.
BLAST RESISTANCE
AS they moved down the main
road leading to Ormoc, knocking
over all forms of Jap resistance,
the Yanks were aided by Ameri-
can fong-range artillery.
With the Americans In control
OF the rugged mountains east
wards of Ormoc and Ormoc Bay,
the Japs face an extremely haz-
ardous proposition should they
attempt any break-through.
ENEMY TRAPPED
The enemy remains trapped be-
tween the forces of the Twenty
fourth and Seventh infantries and
can do nothing more than attempt
suicide charges.
When and If the JapS attempt
to flee from Ormoc Bay towards
Cebu Island. they must run the
gantlet of navy PIT boats and both
navy and army planes.
Meanwhile. the Jap airforce
offered little or no aid 10 the be-
fuddled ground troops trapped in
the Ormoc area.

THROUGHOUT the campaign,
Il apologists for the New Deal have
either discounted or been silent about
the laundering and muddled domestic
policies of the Roosevelt administra
ton, pleading as an offset that it has
constructive and comprehensive
program of international relations.
Some of the American people
have been deluded into believing
that, while President Roosevelt has
made a miserable failure in domestic
affairs, he has managed to do better
in foreign affairs.
The real truth, as Gen. David
Prescott Barrows, former president
of the University of California, said
in a statement in San Francisco last
week, is that President RooSevelt's
program in foreign affairs is the
WEAKEST PART OF HIS
