What has happened abroad can happen here for the simple reason that some of it is already happening here! Back in 1932 and .1933, the An:erican people were taught to believe that a few bad men in the banks and investment houses brought on a panic which caused the loss of billions of dollars and ruined the lives millions of individuals. The Senate investigating committees by the deft handling of testiof and-pointed to scapegoats in the financial world. Not a word of blame for the millions of individuals who speculated, who sought something for nothing. Not a word of blame for the public officers, Democrats and Republicans, in the state governments who; though possessed of ample constitutional power, never moved an inch to break down the fraudulent sale of Securities and the misuse of Instead the men who managed our banking institutions were held up. as a class to the worst abuse ever heaped on a group of men in America. Today the masses_in. America distrust all bankers, commercial and investment. It takes only a reading of Mr. Roosevelt’s own inaugural ad-~ dress of March 4, 1933, to find therein a bitter theme on the “money changers’—the First Devil used to arouse the passions of American citizens. And Hate marches on! BUSINESS PUT INTO PILLORY BY NEW DEAL Came the Second Devil—the business men of America. They were derided as ‘‘economic royalists,” as the forees of ‘‘entrenched greed,” as the diabolical genii of a world in which nobody before had ever uttered an honest word or done an unselfish thing except the persons elevated to public office under the New Deal, To the masses big business, in fact all business, became the anathema of their newspaper days and their jradio nights, No Jess a person than the President ‘of the United States stirred the masses on this issue, mistakenly to be sure, in the belief that this was the way to reform or to greater political power and mastery and that by destroying. business prestige and business influence a spirit of cooperation would be infused into business men, awakening in them a new sense of-justice when in truth they felt themselves the unhappy victims of tragic injustice—And Hate marches on! Came the Third Devil, the Congress of the United States. If a member of the House or Senate dared to express his convictions, he was a tool of the .interests, a hireling of illfeotten wealth, a companion of lobbyists, and “his patronage and his WPA propects were taken from him, again in the miStaken belief that this was a legitimate form of discipline in a legitimate game of politics. The impression was thus created stamp’? with no independent mind of its own and subservient only to the will of the Executive. Faith in Congress as an institution has been for a decade or more breaking down. lt needed only the whip of New Deal eoncentration of funds in the hands of the Chief Executive to make many milions of persons feel ready to do away with Congress altogether so that power and authority might be left to one man—the President—And, Hate marches on! FOR HATRED Game the Fourth Devil. The Sup: reme Court stood in the way of the merger of the executive and legislative branehes of the government into one controlxsought to declare the supreme law ofthe land as John Marshall had proclaimed it, as a long line of distinguished “jurists, trained in the fairness of Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence, had understood it. But, no, the fires of hate and. passion were turned on the nine justices of the Supreme Court of the United States. ‘ First came the President’s comments in the press about the “‘horse that Congress was really a “rubber . was subsequently accused by a Cabinet officer of ‘‘legalizing a steal’ when. it ordered the processing taxes returned. Attacks on the Supreme Court have been repeatedly inspired by Administration spokesmen in public addresses. Finally, not content to upbraid the justices for their written opinions, scurrilous attacks on the personal life of the individual} justices were permitted to be circulated with full advertisement by henchmen of the Administration— And Hate marches on! Though admitting the matter was somewhat indelicate, Mr. Roosevelt himself gave the country to understand in a formal message to both houses of Congress, that the justices of the Supreme Court of the United States had reached such an advanced age as to be mentally infirm or, in effect, incapacitated. But is was not so much the individual justices who were undermined. It was the institution—the Supreme Court of the United States —which was made the target of political hate and passion. Thus have the people little by little been led to believe that the Supreme Court was their enemy and not their friend. What more patent than the President's dissatisfaction with the decisions of the judges? Had he plainly based plea for the removal or impeachment jf the justices on the his ground that they were not liberal o: enlightened, he could not have presented a more direct assault on the independence of the judiciary or conveyed more significantly his belief in the theory that Supreme Court justices must .bow to the political concepts of the Administration in office. Mr. Roosevelt has chosen. the American people have fangs in American public opinion. There were 27,750,000 persons in the last election who, it is being suggested, wanted Mr. Roosevelt to have supreme powers. Of that number many received financial benefits and subsidies from the Administration. But there were millions of other citizens who voted for Mr Roosevelt out of a conscientious belief and conviction that he would be more conservative in his second term than in his first, that all the things the Republicans charged could not possibly be true, and finally that it, was unwise to change President in the middle of the stream of economic recovery. ELECTION NOT A MANDATE TO PACK COURT Supposing half the 27,750,000 were in.the latter group. just described. If so, it is upon them the responsibility ‘rests today o speak out and say whether they want the judiciary to become subservient. to the executive branch of the govern: ment. Republicans as a party would do well to maintain silence. The Republican who have pressed resolutions of op position to the President’s plan have not helped cause.

Some day when the masses’ ni longer are given bread, when thi purchasing power of their wages diminishes because confidence in the dollar has been swept aside by government extravagance and unbalanced budgets, and when the Presiden! can no longer keep on handing o:' doles and subsidies without bankrupting the Treasury, the masses will turn on the Presidency and discredit it, too.
