30-cent melodramas which made
Eliza's crossing of stage ice so
perilous and awful for those
who can be easily convinced.
The Wallace grinders moan and
howl:
"If you're for Roosevelt, you
are for Wallace" (signed nation
al business men's committee for
Wallace) . . .
"Wallace Is a Yankee business
man," howls Morgenthau (oblivi
ous of geography which has cer
tified Yankees in New England,
where Wallace has never been
except on political trips) . . .
"The reactionary senators are
trying to defeat the common
man," moans a Florida column
ist whose opinion Is being re
published throughout the state
as a paid advertisement.
WHY? Mr. Wallace is defeated.
He was defeated within 48
hours after his nomination for
secretary of commerce was sent
to the senate, defeated for the
only important aspect of his ap
pointment, control of the lending
agencies.
Without RFC. the commerce
secretaryship is the least lm-
nortant cabinet office.
He was defeated not by a few
"reactionary" senators, but by
complete outraged majorities of
the congress recently elected by
the people with Mr. Roosevelt
tor the fourth term. They Just
would not stand for putting a
farmer in to handle the new
deal's financial lending empire.
It Is not true that If you are
for Roosevelt you are for Wal
lace. Mr. Roosevelt himself had
to discard Wallace for the presl
dential campaign; Is being com'
pel led by congress now again to
discard him for a financial con-
trol job for which few think him
suited.
It is not true that he Is either
Yankee or a business man. It
Is not true that the opposition
represents reactionarylsm while
he represents the common man.
Looking at it only from the
Roosevelt liberal or any Demo
cratic viewpoint the common
man would best be served by
an efficient management of the
banks and lending companies
through RFC In the Interests of
the government.
A man who knows nothing of
such hard-boiled, highly techni
cal 'management could cause
the whole RFC empire to fall
into a mess within a few months,
disrupting the proposed job
lending and ruining the country.
Would that help the common
man?
In my solemn, sincere opin
ion, Wallace could be useful In
that Job only for those who want
to ruin the country, You would
not hire a physician to do your
dentistry or a dentist to take out
your appendix, not unless you
wanted the patient to die.
Why this campaign? The only
possible explanation, it seems
to me, is this:
Radical leadership in this
country has fallen far below par.
Now it Is trying to stir up just
an ill-grounded and foolish cam
paign to build Wallace up as a
front for its activities.
From the way they are going
about it, I Judge they expect to
make the people believe V
lace a tin god from his defeat.
a martyr for the common man.'
a respectable show-window man
for future use.
Mr. Wallace Is an honest, de
cent person and thus suitable for
that purpose. He Is not acute to
the workings of those who have
been using him for some time.
Human and friendly, he has
never been accused of being
smart, or gifted with Insight for
leadership.
The movement Is not likely
to succeed. True liberalism in
the real interests of the people
will not gain Its day until young
new men who are both clever
and honest, now unknown, arise
to take hold of it and lead it.
