Concedes, However, That Anything’s Liable to Happen in ’40.

By LEE G. MILLER Times Special Writer 2

~ WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.—Many New Dealers, after chewing over ‘the election returns. for a week, con-

cede privately that “anything might 7 happen” to them in 1940. But they are: completely confident that the Main outlines of the New Deal itself are in no danger of erasure. | They point out that the New Deal has been carved deep into the con- ' sciousness of America, and into its physical contours as well. No coali- . tion of Republicans and conservative . Democrats, nor even a G. O. P. ‘landslide two years hence, could turn back the clock, they argue. ~ _ The general public acceptance of most of the vast innovations of the last six years was attested in the recent campaign when Republicans generally confined their attack to the methods rather than the ob- _ Jectives of the New Deal.

Changes Are Great

: a -Six® years have seen . greater changes in this country than any {other President, unless it was Lin|coln, bequeathed to his successor, -8ix years ago the jobless man had to rely on charity, and the penniless aged had no haven but the poorhouse. - Today the principle of Federal relief for the unemployed is firmly rooted, and social security is stepping in to make the poorhouse an ‘odious memory. The New Deal is accused of pros- * tituting its relief machinery for political purposes, and a Congressional inquiry into such charges seems inevitable. But the opposition has long since stopped denying the Federal responsibility for looking after the unemployed. “Social security is under attack. But nobody is suggesting that the 27% million workers who now have accumulated wage credits under the state-Federal system of unemploy-

. ment insurance should be deprived

of that protection. Nor that 42 mil- - lion old-age insurance accounts should be liquidated. Nor that the 1,643,000 old people receiving StateFederal pensions should be cut off. Take farm relief. This year the AAA has dvailable $904,024,890 for price-adjustment payments and other cash benefits to farmers. Republicans attacked the AAA successfully in Kansas and elsewhere because of the current low prices of principal farm products—but they proposed no cessation of benefits.

. Union Membership Rises

Organized labor was in the doldrums when President Roosevelt took office. The A. F. of L. membership, scarcely more than two million, was the lowest since 1916.

- Defense as ‘Barrage’ In New Congress.

Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 16 ~President Roosevelt's strategy in dealing with the forthcoming Congress wilt borrow from military tactics. A big national defense program will be the first objective. It will draw general support—as one leader put it, “Everybody is for national defense”-—not only in Congress but from the big industrialists, heads of the capital goods industries, ‘who will benefit by-increased orders. Likewise, | it will form a sort of barrage behind which Mr. Roosévelt can assay the effects of the election upon Congress, pull his somewhat diminished but still overwhelming forces together and build up his defenses against attacks on this program. The President’s personal popularity went up several notches when he interceded a few weeks ago in Europe in the interest of averting war, which did become an accom plished fact however much he had
