WENDELL wILLKIE

Vv&AS~~AA>AN
The nation has suffered cruel
loss, one that will not soon be re-
paired. Ever since the fateful
spring Of 1910 Wendell Willkie has
played a part Of immense impor-
lance to the destiny of this country
and of the world; now he is dead
before his part is finished, and
there is no one who can easily or
quickly take his place.
His part has been to save his
country from an irreconcilable par
tisan division in the face Of the
most formidable enemies who were
ever arrayed against all that
America is and means. Historians
will say, believe, that second only
to the Battle of Britain, the sud-
den rise and nomination OF Willkie
was the decisive event, perhaps
providential, which made it posi-
BILE to rally the free world when it
was almost conquered. Under any
other leadership but his, the Re
publican party would in 1910 have
turned its back upon Great Britain,
causing all who still resisted Hitler
to feel that they were abandoned.
For while his rivals for the nomi-
nation at Philadelphia would al
most certainly have been defeated.
the fact that they had made the
Republican the isolationist party
would have made it almost innpos-
sible thereafter to reinforce our
Allies by lend-lease and to gain the
time we had to have to prepare for
war.
Although Willkie never succeed
ed in converting the "old guard"
and Of restoring the party to its
great federalist tradition, he was
able to hold in check its tendency
to sink into know-nothingism and
reactionary obstruction. Thus be-
cause Of him, and of him alone, the
Republican party has survived dur.
ing these four historic years, has
preserved its title and its engibili-
ty to govern in the world as it now
is. If the ideas of his rivals in
1910 had prevailed, we should be
today not on the slopes of victory
but isolated, divided, and desper-
ately hard pressed.
Had Willkie not played the part
he did play in neutralizing the Re-
publican "old guard" who could
even consider intrusting the con-
duct Of this unfinished war and the
making Of this exceptionally diff
cult peace to the Republican par
ty.
So indispensable has been his
role in righ@ng the balance Of his
party that his sudden death is
bound to weight heavily the judg-
ment Of those independents who
are still trying to decide, with Sc
we're searching of their own con-
sciences, whether it is a greater
risk to continue in office this tired
Administration or to put into office
an inexperienced Administration.
There is no doubt, I think, that
while Wendell Willkie was alive
and active, those who for many
reasons have wanted change, but
were conscious of the risks, felt
treasured by the fact OF his exis-
tence. Though the 'old guard at
the Chicago convention in effect
read him out Of the party, and
treated him as few men Of his
eminence have ever been treated
by their own party organization,
nevertheless many have felt that
