A few Democrats may feel badly that President Roosevelt looks ‘‘affectionately’’ yet unkindly upon, Hiram Johnson, and that the senator, replying, has had a few words to say about the President. But these are not many. Senator Johnson's “declaration of independence’ —for that is all it i —is no anti-Democratic statement, and anyone who knows the record'of the veteran statesman Inows that this is true. Hiram Johnson simply is no party's man, but rather one of those rare men in public life yho lives and acts by con science alone. Democrats should remember that they took great glee when the Senator more than oncé’ parted company with Republican’ Herbert Hoover; should remember this historic utterence of Johnson's before the Senate on June 11, 1929. ‘I realize that there are some who, whenever the party lash is applied, crawl to the one who lashes them. ‘I had ‘rather be a toad and live upon the vapor of a dungeon’ than sit in this body, or in any other body, and take orders upon a question of conscience from any man on earth. no matter how exalted his position. “1 atand hy the P-esident when I believe him to be richt but when [believe him to be wrong I part with him. and . zo mv wen eae and Teo my own way with full knowled7e of what the caonsetrences mar he.” That wag yesterdav.

The coming trials of various men to-establish ‘‘guilt’’ for cause of the war, for losing the war, for lack of preparedness, are indefensible in common sense. The national disregard of Communist infiltration, easy-going tolerance of socialistic oad ering of the nation’s wealth, and blindness to the rise of German mizht—all those things added up to national suicide An autopsy of a whole nation may be in order—but not 2 trial of . a handful of men. however wilful or stupid they might have been. Historically, the French are an exceptionally logical, people. In time that logic will reassert itself and stabilize the national life. Meanwhile it would be unjust as weil as unkind to criticize the French too severely for current behavior that is so patently a thing of hysteria —Contributed. August 15, 1940 to Frederick A.
