would ‘stop in Ft. Wayne, Ind, en route to Chicago. Mr. Hannegan's was the first official word that the Chicago speech was definite. With ‘most of that in mind, Correspondent Merwin H. Brown, of the Buffalo (N. Y.) Evening News, inquired at yesterday's White House news conference whether the President was now campaigning “in the usual partisan sense.” Mr. Brown had moved among reporters prior to the conference asking whether they thought the President would consider the question unfair, intimating that he did not desire to create that impréssion. Half Quote Charged Mr. Roosevelt accepted the inquiry in the best of good humor and instantly rejected the idea that he was doing as Brown suggested. He also rejected the idea that Mr. Brown had properly stated the proposition. On the contrary, the President said he had caught “all” the newspapers, even the reputable ones, at fault on the subject. Then he explained that the newspapers had been guilty of quoting half a sentence from his July 20 acceptance speech as delivered by radio to the Democratic national convention in Chicago. The President recalled that he had then made a statement about not campaigning in the usual sense but had continued the sentence with the word “except” to lead into the qualifying conditions under which he might make political speeches.

the New York Herald Tribune broke in to say that the qualification was not in the same sentence. Mr. Roosevelt said maybe his sentence was broken by a comma, but that it was the same sentence, all right, although some people pay no attention to a comma. Letter of Acceptance

Mr. Roosevelt returned to the same line of thought, but with qualifications: “I shall not campaign in the usual sense for the office. In these days of tragie sorrow, I do not find it fitting. Besides, in these days of global warfare, I shall not be able to find the time. I shall, however,

TO BEGIN with, the Communist issue in this campaign was not injected by the Republicans. It was injected by the Communists and their fellow travelers themselves — not in words, of course, but in actions. Long before Democratic strategists had come out frankly for the fourth term, demands that Roosevelt be drafted were being shouted by every Communist publication and every Communist-con-

The successful Communist drive to capture the American Labor party in New York was a specific preparation for the fourth-term campaign.

SUSPECT IN ROW AT CLUB FREED

The man who was picked up on a street corner Monday night by police and held in “protective custody” after officers received a tip that a gang of armed men were looking for him, has been released under $500 bond on a vagrancy charge by Municipal Judge John Niblack. The prisoner was John R. Oliver, 42, of 1114 Blaine ave, whose attorneys satisfied the court that his life was not in danger. The arrest followed a free-for-all fight in the Electrical Workers and Radio Operators’ Social club, 45% Virginia ave., Saturday night when, according to unconfirmed rumors, some $5000 to $9000 was grabbed off a gambling table. The club was open and running as usual last night but police still were unable to raid the place without a search warrant because of a Circuit court temporary restraining order, preventing police from “unlawfully entering” the club.

‘It's Dangerous t6 Call the Communist Issue Minor One’

MOST IMPORTANT, there lis the notorious fact that the New Deal administration has been honeycombed with open and disguised Communists through most of its career. Ever since 1935, when the Communist International gave the signal for new united-front policies in all countries, New Dealers have been conspicuous on every fellow-traveler roster, at every Communist - inspired mass meeting, in every Communist manifesto. The issue thus did not have to be invented or inflated. It has been there, large as life, all the time. Indeed, the Republicans have played down the issue rather than exaggerated it—when one contemplates the ammunition that they have somehow ignored. 2 ” ”

I SUSPECT that some Republicans are as complacent as the Democrats about the whole matter, and for the same reason: Ignorance of the real magnitude of the Communist movement and how far it has already affected our political life, our schools, our literature, our labor unions, our entertainment and even our churches. At bottom, I suspect, the Republicans share the widespread illusion that because the FA U=— merically small it is not a real challenge. For nearly a decade we have had, in effect, a popular front government. It has functioned through what might be described as interlocking directorates — through thousands of big and little officials serving in the government and at the same time supporting an array of Commu-nist-front organizations. 8 sn 2 LOOK AT the activities of any of these organizations — the League for Peace and Democracy, the American Peace Mobilization (which pushed isolationist propa-

ganda - until June, 1941), the Workers Alliance, the National Maritime Youth * Congress, , the Lawyers Guild, the Daughters of the American Depression, the American Negro Congress, the American Writers Congress, the so-called Friends of Spanish Democracy, ete. Not one of these pulled a mass meeting or manifesto or picket line without the public blessings of some New Dealer. If writing a history of the Communist movement in our country, in 1941, I found that after 1935 the record became in large part a history of the New Deal. So much of the personnel and the ideologies had merged that it was not easy to tell precisely where one left off and the other took over.

THE REPUBLICANS have failed dismully to bring this picture into such clear focus that the Americans could see and comprehend. They have contented themselves with slogans about “clear everything with Sidney” when a mountain of concrete facts about a concrete situation covering nearly a decade was at their disposal. ; But the Republican failure does not cancel the reality. Communism is not an issue “dragged in” by the Republicans. It's an issue they found waiting and failed to exploit because they, too, tend to underestimate it,
