Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-10-02


broadcast made by Rupert Hughes Sept. 19:
THE latest resting place of our restless Roose-
i welt is Quebec. He is away so much that they
ought to change his title from President to
abSdent.
1t used to be thought of as unthinkable that
president Should leave the American soil. Once
or twice the deck of battleShip considered
American soil for short trips but there was
wave of amazement and horror when in 1919
President Woodrow Wilson announced that he
would 90 to Europe to conduct affairs in person.
He was bitterly criticized for imp ying that he
alone, among all our then population of about 100
million, knew enough to handle foreign affairs and
foreigners. But he went.
Our population is now 80 million than
il rUas in Wilson's day but the next Democratic
President still trusts ONLY HIMSELF to carry on
foreign conversations With foreign potentates.
He still believes it his destiny to New Deal
the ,Oorld shuttle the cards, Distribute the hands
and name the trumps.
WORSE YET, HE ACCEPTS ALL THE
LOUIS AT FACE VALUE.
Woodrow Wilson never visited Africa. Asia
or the mid Pacific He never vanished leaving the
whole nation saying hush-hush,
However noble Wilson's ideals may have been,
the net result was not only his tragic collapse
but the collapse of all he planned
Under Wilson billions were lent to our Allies
We never got them back =. that's the BILLIONS
Under Roosevelt infinitely MORE BILLIONS
have been scattered. And noW there isn't even a
pretense of TRYING TO GET THEM BACK.
THE longest of all the Presidents travels up To
l. yet was his trip to Tehran. That took him
thousand and thousands of miles through fright
full risks
The dangers were 50 many that even aftef-he
got there the President of the United States LEFT
THE AMERICAN EMBASSY and SLEPT AT
THE RUSSIAN EMBASSY under the roof of Joe
Stain, who would 90 no farther away from home
1t shocked many Americans to think of our
President going nearly half way round the globe
to meet a foreign dictator-aS Roosevelt called
Stain in 1910
The only visible result of the rendezvous was
that Roosevelt went to Tehran as the foremost
figure in the world and came away as the SEC
OND MOST
Stain stole the show and the play and has
since been recognized as the one dominant auto
crat of the globe. Tehran turned our President
into an also ran
Stain graciously consented to receive more
lendieose American billions during the rest of the
and still afterWard for the buiid.up OF
Russia.
But Poland Lithuania Estonia, Latuio-their
fates are in Stains hands and dare not peep
We did not get airbase from, Russia except
those temporary so-called "shuttle" bases though
We haze given her thousands of planes.
She rUiH not help us against Japan. Stain UiH
not help ally, China. Stain helps only himself
Strange indeed is the Russianization of our
country UNDER THE NEW DEAL.
VICE PRESIDENT WALLACE is almost as
wide traveller as Mr. and Mrs Roosevelt
Now he is in South America speaking in Spanish;
now he is. in China now he is in Russia speaking
in Russian.
Most recently hehas been hitch-hiking through
New England interviewing common men and pre-
tending to be one Of them. But Mr. Wallace is a
