WAR'S EFFECT AIMS PONDERED
Capital Wonders if Reforms Will Be Buried Under Armament Boom.
By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer
' WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.—Is the Roosevelt New Deal going the way
of the Wilson New Freedom to be buried by a European war? Many are asking that question here, conservatives and liberals. Of course the question cannot be answered—yet. The New Deal has been buried a good many times by the soothsayers -in the last seven years, only to rise again more lively than ever. Before cournting out the President as a reformer, they must remember that he is a much A Ts more resourceful Mr. Denny and practical political fighter than his somewhat pedantic predecessor in making America safe for democracy. Moreover Mars has not yet moved into America to prevent peaceful progress, and may not. But whistle as we will, in the uncertain twilight of the moment that thing ahead looks suspiciously like a New Deal graveyard to many.
Tangible Facts: Listed
Without seeking ghosts and without heeding Wilsonian history, there are certain tangible facts of the present so real and so big that nobody can ignore them: 1. The President is trying to defeat: depression by an armament
m. 2. The Administration's interest and activity have shifted from national to international problems. 3. New Deal agencies axe on the defensive. i 4, The President has formed an alliance with the anti-New Deal Democrats under Vice President Garner, One interesting interpretation is that they are the end of the New Deal. |Another is that they mean only a temporary and necessary strategic retreat.
Armament Costs Cited
Whether temporary or permanent, the reversal is staggering in proportions. That is true both economically ,and politically. Several billions of dollars—how many even. the President has not yet figured out—are to be poured into the armament boom. Where are those billions coming from? Mostly debts rather than pay-as-you-go taxes. Where is the money to go? For military purposes—instead of the original New Deal goal of housing, public health, education, reforestation, conservation, public power, social security and all the rest. Few doubt that the President can reproduce here the same military “prosperity” by which the rulers of Germany and Britain have boomed their countries, though many believe it will end in a worse crash than our last disastrous armament boom. Many fear it will destroy much more than the New Deal. Apparently he can have a third term, or name his successor and retain actual power, as he chooses. ‘But can he save New Deal reforms and bring peaceful prosperity with a pro-Allied foreign policy and an armament-boom domestic policy? That is the question dominating Washington.

The Gallup Poll—
PRINCETON, N. J., Oct. on the question of changing of the American Institute of opinion in the different sections of Voters in the 13 Southern
other section. While 60 voters in every hundred throughout the United States are indicated in favor of neutrality revision, the figure in the Southern area averages 75 persons per hundred. The lowest sentiment for revision of the act, on the other hand, comes from New England and from the traditionally “isolationist” sections of the West and Mississippi Valley. Interestingly enough the debate in the Senate has ranged Southern legislators almost unanimously on the side of the Pittman revision, while many of the Senators from the Mid-West — Capper, Nye, Clark, Vandenberg, and others— are opposing the bill. | In the latest Institute survey voters in every state were asked: “Do you think Congress should make changes in the neutrality law so that England and France or any other nations can buy war supplies, including arms and airplanes, in the United States?” The vote by sections on the question is:
YES
New England.... 56% Mid-Atlantic .... East Central ..... 57 West Central .... 60 South .....ccc000 15 25 West ....... 58 42
Previous | Institute surveys have shown a greater reservoir of actual and latent war sentiment in the Southern States than elsewhere, a greater number believing that a German victory would menace the United States, anda smaller number favoring a vote of the people before U. S. troops could be drafted for service overseas.
