PRESIDENT TRUMAN Is ac-

in spite of tremendous oppo-

has not yet swung away from

THE FAILURES blame e d

regime have been vastly exag-

Able historians can reveal that
the British, Russian, and other
imperial or colonial mis-rule
created the wars and resulting

men and gold. No American

CORRUPTION IN GOVERN
MEET did not begin with the
Democratic Party. The COP.
bv its "Civil War Sell-out" to the
south must share huge response
bility. Race discrimination and
segregation are some Of the
earliest and most vicious forms
of corruption in our nation and
the COP, which threw away
Lincoln's ideals, must also stand
in Judgment. Republicans to-
day are in no position to
preach.

THE BIG SMEAR which was
used against the Roosevelts will
undoubtedly be tried once more
against his party. But a pro-
gram Of villifcation will not win
for the COP. It never won

Roosevelt was called everything,
including a communist. He won.

He won. Regarding corruption,
both parties have it.
