Why was Mussolini spared,, and Stalin t Here are two I'oes

So the demonstrators were

AS for the red flag of Russia, those who feel strongly
against Stalin and his dictatorship of the proletariat, are
not disposed toward flag waving or flag tearing. They feel
strongly but they arc Inrgely of the property owning class,
rural and metropolitan. The "bourgeoisie" it you please, and

Those who really hate Bolshevism, as labor hates Fascism
because they FEAR it--bccauso its victory would spell their
destruction are largely comfortably placed in the upper
brackets, and don't engage in street demonstrations, or other
phases of "direct action."
Finally while organized labor has always been essentially
conservative and has repeatedly gone on record against Com

were this country ever unfortunate enough to be faced by th
grim necessity of choosing BETWEEN Fascism and Commun

served. Sometimes a meringue-capped

any rate the chief figure In the game
must be a rather pompous person.

conversation Into higher levels

tops. One, say Baragwanath, will In

THE President, a "high administra
tive official" asserts, will stand
pat on his original supreme court
packing bill.
There is no indication, this official i
says, that Roosevelt will permit his
court packing bill to be withdrawn
or changed, despite the fact that the
government has won 12 Important
coses and lost none before the high
tribunal this year.
W
HY Is the President so firm In his
announced determination to go
through with his court packing
scheme?
Well, for one thing, he can't afford
to have It . suspected that he WILL
compromise until he Is READY to
compromise. . That would weaken his
hand badly. - -
For another, he CAN'T AFFORD to
compromise, for a compromise would
be politically equivalent to a defeat
and a defeat would destroy the Im
pression In congress that he Is po
litically invincible. If congress eve:
gets that Idea, there will be trouble
ahead for the New Deal.
So the President has to go ahead
with his court scheme.
