Why The Times Supports The Democratic Party-V

, This is the last of a series of editorials in which we have set forth the reasons why we are supporting the Democratic Partjrm 1948. Today we wish to recapitulate our reasons for believing that -the nation and the world would be better off if President ,'JCruman and a Democratic Congress were returned to

back to the states." And within another six months the oil

companies will have them all sewed up. The people as always under the Republicans will be on the outside looking in. We have said nothing in this series about why we prefer the Democrats to the Dixiecrats or the 'Progressives. The reason we have' not done so is because we feel that the policies and principles of these two rump parties are so repugnant to the great body of the American people that they

are not worth bothering with. One represents the worst of reactionism; the other the worst of radicalism. 1 The Republican Party was born under great leadership and with noble ideals. j Because of the lingering hatreds and prejudices of the 1

War Between the States, the party was enabled to gain ai great foothold in the most populous parts of the nation. It had its heyday during a golden age of expansion. Thus millions of people came to look upon it as a party of pro

gress and prosperity. And since so many sons and daughters vote as their fathers did before them, the GOP has remained a huge political force.

The Democratic Party likewise had noble founders and j

noble ideals. Where it differs from the Republican Party is that it has continued to have great leaders and great prin

ciples. Whenever the chips have been down, when crises have swept the nation, the Democratic Party has always clung ta the basic belief that this nation must be run for the greatest good for the greatest number.

It has survived lor many generations upon that belief

of room at the top for the rich and near-rich about whom the ReptiBlican Party has always been so concerned. ;; ikit if the national administration concerns itself prinrarflx! with those at the top, again as the record shows, then the common people at the bottom of the heap have a pretty rougJCtime. Today the concept of democratic capitalism throughout the jKbrld is under the most severe' attack it has ever been forced to weather. Jt is assailed from without by grim, active enemies. It survived the Hitler-Mussolini type of attack only by fighting the Biggest, bloodiest war in history. ffow it faqes attack from both' the huge leftist force represented by Communism as practiced in Soviet Russia, and by the incipient fascism which survives in a dozen spots on eartlu -Within it is threatened by dry-rot from the smug feeling that all it needs do to survive is to do nothing. - 3Ve do net believe that the Republican Party which so soulfully proclaims its devotion to free enterprise and capitalism knows how to save the system from its enemies. In Great Britain the Tories loved capitalism, 'Ho. But they loved so blindly that they could not meet the new conditions of a changed world and today Britain is largely a socialistic state.. -The conservative parties of France, Italy, Germany and Japan also loved capitalism so strongly .that they could not see -that they were bringing ruin upon themselves.
