National Politics Again In Limelight
Big national politics are again in the making, and
strange things are happening that will change the
platforms of 1946. The national Republican com
mittee met in Indianapolis, re-elected Brownell as
chairman, stuck to its 1944 colors and emphasized
early ending of the war and making a permanent
peace.
Governor Dewey in his opening address to the
New York legislature urged appropriations and tax
es to the amount of over two billions for his state af
ter the war, thereby falling in line with national
spending of public funds contrary to his denounce
ments of such methods during the late campaign
against waste and increasing taxes. Contrary to his
usual rigid economy methods, he loosened the gates
in his state against the pressure of inflation. Other
states are likely to follow his lead, and the bulwarks
of national stability may be increasingly under
mined. The President appoints Henry Wallace, the
greatest spendthrift of the New Deal, as secretary of
Commerce, and discharges Jesse Jones, a thorough
business man from this job, along with other re
sponsible financial duties, and we all know what
Morganthau can do, or may do, the next four years.
With the tendency of the times and the course of pol
itics, the solid value of the good old American dollar
may go nose diving.
We read with interest the switch over of Senator
Vandenberg from isolationism to internationalism.
It was he and others of his school that destroyed
Wendell Willkie, and now from Vandenberg’s seat
in the senate enshrouded by the spirit of Willkie, a
shining light goes out through the living voicing the
dead, and the entire world applauds. The powerful
senator from Michigan declares isolationism is dead,
and lays down one of the most practical programs
for dealing with the world yet declared in that con
servative body. Another turnover in recent years is
Senator Bob Taft of Ohio. Born of a conservative
family, for years old guard conservative himself, he
is now rated as the Bill Borah, the great liberal, of
the United States senate.
The question is how are we, the common people,
going to keep up with the changes in the political
minds of our leaders? We still have the voice of the
nation in public expression, and the voting booth.
What we, and the boys when they come home, will
have to say, may determine what the leaders will do
after the war in more certain terms.
