Weakness in Cleavage.
The question remains whether
Americans for Democratic Action,
which was launched with the bless
ing of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
is an organization within the Demo-
cratic Party or an independent
liberal group not allied with either
of the major parties. A unification,
regardless of party, in behalf of
liberal policies and candidates, is
highly desirable. But even if
liberals within the Republican Party
should organize, as like minded per-
sons have done within the Demo-
cratic Party, there would still be
q cleavage between the liberals Of
the country that would constitute a
weakness.
The severe handicap under which
Nprogressives have labored in the
United States has always been this
division of their strength between
the two major parties. This has
made it easy for the two party
machines ITO divide and conquer" q"
As a matter of fact, the machines
have not had to do the dividing.
The liberals have obligingly done it
for them.

doing this with the Progressive

chimes. The domestic objectives Of
the liberals are practically identical.
The real difference between the two
existing organizations is that the
Progressive Citizens Of America
lacked the courage. as it did the
vision, to draw o sharp line as to
communism. The only basis on
which liberalism can hope to main
tain itself in this country is that Of
a determined exclusion Of COM
|munism.
The suggestion made on January
A that the Americans for Demo-
cratic Action was an organization
working within the Democratic
Party was an unfortunate one
which naturally drew protests from
some quarters and raised doubts
in others. This movement would
quickly lose its vitality If 1t became
entangled with the Democratic ma
chine, with its poll-tax States In
the South and its corrupt city ma
chimes in the North.
Way Needed for Doing.
A political and social liberalism
is way of thinking and hoping.
What it needs is some Implements
ton for doing. This need leads to
the suggestion that has been made
Of an organization that would main
tain it's identity independently Of
both party organizations. It would
still be possible for party Demo-
Gratis, as well as for party Republic
cans. to vote at the primaries Of
their own parties, and they could
later rally to, the support of pro-
gressive measures and men as lib
erai-nainded citizens.
In my judgment, there is little
hope of a liberal party reincarnat-
ing the Progressive Party that had
sucn a brilliant, If brief, career in
1912. There is not likely to be a
national third party in the reason
ably foreseeable future. In limiting
at such possibility, Mr.. Wallace
is holding out false hopes.

The church mouse patted down 9

But school teachers, while just as
poor as we are, can't get by with
what we do. They have to live in

to dress just as nicely as if they

have to keep getting smarter and
