IS HENRY A DEFEATIST?
Is Henry Wallace putting out defeatist prop
aganda as a back swipe at President Roosevelt
and the “ big four” Democratic bosses who or
ganized what was done to him at Chicago?
Speaking at Des Moines Saturday Wallace
said “ the Democratic party can succeed in the
November election only if it brings the farmer
and the worker together on a liberal, construc
tive platform” and he added that “ one function
of a liberal, constructive Democratic party is to
keep the west and the south united.”
This being a political year we can begin our
analysis of the foregoing comment by conced
ing that there will be no unanimity about what
is liberal and constructive. One group considers
the present trend toward totalitarianism as lib-
eal while another considers it the most illiberal
force that has struck the United States since old
King George was taxing us without represen
tation. This is a matter of opinion.
But the union of the farmer and the worker
is a matter of fact. They— meaning a majority
of them— either together or separately. In 1932
and 1936 a majority o f each of the two largest
economic groups in the United States voted for
the new deal and it won tremendous victories.
But in 1938 the farmers started switching and
Republican gains were sensational. In 1940 mo
st farming precincts outside of the south voted
Republican as a study o f the returns will plainly
show. Mr. Roosevelt was returned to office by
the labor vote in the great cities. In 1942 the
farm vote veered still farther away from the
new deal. Most o f the northern states elected
Republican governors and senators and almost
half of the house o f representatives became Re
publican.
We believe it is privately conceded by virtua
lly everyone in touch with the fanners that they
are more hostile to the new deal than they were
in 1940 or 1942. It is scarcely conceivable that
a majority o f them, leaving out the south will
support the fourth term when they opposed the
third.
Yet Henry Wallace says they must or there
won t be any fourth term. This sounds to us like
a virtual admission that the election o f Tom
Dewey is probable. The vice president evidently
believes the Democratic ticket has been weak
ened by the substitution of a name which he did
not refer to in the Des Moines speech for his
own.
’lust a sidelight: How does Henrv Wallace
expect the south, which is the most backward
section of the nation to remain aligned with the
west, which is the most progressive? It was a
miracle that Mr. Roosevelt kept them in the
same camp as long as he did, but miracles can’t
be repeated indefinitely— Idaho Free-Press

EARLY
This pioneer feed and seed firm has taken another step forward in
improving its service to farmers.
Construction o f a large addition to our office and warehouse building
will enable us to give greater and more efficient service to our farmer
friends through the stocking o f more merchandise and provision for stor
age space.
By providing these additional facilities in war-time for the farmers,
we feel that we are advancing the war effort because we are handling
Malheur county products and distributing merchandise that acts directly
in increasing production of crops that are essential in supporting our vic
torious troops on the European and Pacific fronts.
