My hat respectfully to the Able democratic publicists engaged in bomb ing the Republican party convention s new no foreign War Plank in its platform i must maintain that the declaration accords with american Public opinion at the moment. The mass of the american people ure violently opposed to armed intervention to Aid great Britain. I am sorry but that s a positive statement.

Minnesota democrats were on record today in favor of drafting president Roosevelt for a third term. Meeting in convention Here sat urday the democrats voted unanimously to instruct their Dele gation to the National convention in Chicago to support the third term move. The eloquent appeals of the More far sighted thinking elements of the nation who despairingly argue that the Best defense of the . Is Quick armed Aid of great Britain. They cannot convince the people. But note that the Republican party declaration carefully avoids the implication that if elected to Power they would not fight under any the real . Do not forget the republicans Haven t that the Congress of the United states recently passed almost unanimously a Resolution reaffirming adherence to the Monroe doctrine. The Senate passed it 76 to 0, the House 380 to 8 the republicans recognize that Public opinion in the United states would instantly align itself behind any government which used armed Force to repel an invasion of the Western hemisphere. There s no doubt but that such Force would be used promptly to repel any nazi military invasion of Canada or the latin american republics. Experts agree that it most Likely would be used to repel any open nazi political manoeuvres in this hemisphere. The real question is whether any american government Democrat or prepared to use armed Force to eject economic saboteurs of american Trade. That s the line the nazis Are already aking.

These Are the dynamics in the Virtly developing War picture and evident that the Republican no less than or. Roosevelt s dealers is prepared to take it is party new cards in the game. Meanwhile american Public opinion is steadily rising against the growing aggressiveness of the Jap anese. For a time there were Indi cations that powerful financial and Industrial elements in the United states were agreeable to a move to appease the japanese that idea is rapidly disappearing in the face of the insatiable japanese demands.
