United States proper is 3,628,790
square miles, while that of the Do-
minion of Canada is 3,729,665 square
miles. United States proper and
Alaska have an area of 3,617,675

WASHINGTON. — The period of
distorted claims by the winners and
the equally distorted alibis of the
losers seems to be about over, We
have heard all of the tumult and the
shouting of an election time. The
total vote has been tabulated, and
it shows a greater number—83 new
ones—of Republicans in the house
of representatives and eight new Re-
publican senators. Some 14 more
states have Republican governors
ready to take over from the Demo-
crats they have displaced. There
were what may be called important
numerical gains for the Republican
party label.
But while the total vote has been
tabulated and served as the basis
for the claims of the winners and
the alibis of the losers, those fig-
ures will be forgotten soon. The
thing that is important is the result.
We will be measuring the results for
months to come.
It is quite unimportant, in my
mind, to appraise what the swing of
a few votes may have meant. It
is, however, mighty important to
this 1938 election. There were hard

tail.
Probably, it can be said that the
vote was an expression against
waste and extravagance, against
corruption of the electorate by use
of public moneys, such as went on
among relief workers and for which
we ought always to be ashamed; it
probably can be said that it was a
vote against blank check appropria-
tions, or against government mess-
ing into every phase of human en-
deavor, or against many another
item of policy in the New Deal, and
if it were so said, it would be true
to a degree, everywhere. But we
are concerned with the sum into
which these several things have
been added.
Vote Discloses Revolt by
So-Called ‘Middle Class’
The United States has been gov-
erned by an expression of the will
of the majority. It is sound. It is
the basis of a republic. There has
been much criticism of President
Roosevelt on the basis of his dom-
ination of government. It has been
said that he is the government be-
cause he has had such complete
control that even congress moved
this way or that at his drection, in
the manner of puppets.
If those characterizations be true,
then it appears to me iogical to
conclude that the late election was
something of a vote for government
by law and not by an individual or
group of individuals. By the same
reasoning, it is a logical assumption
that the vote disclosed a revolt by
the great middle class of the Ameri-
can people—the group which lives
neither by the power of organization
and the strike threat, nor by the
attributed to a few whom he has
called the ‘economic
lated to organized labor of the C. I.
O. type, and used the numbers of
votes there to bulwark its assault
on business, The middle classes
which embrace the backbone and
the salt of the earth of any nation
haven't had much consideration
from the New Deal thinkers. They
have been the ‘forgotten men’ (and
women) about which Mr. Roosevelt
spoke when campaigning in 1932. It
is quite clear that the middle classes
have grown tired of government
playing into the hands of a single
class. They are tired, as they were
in 1932, when the Republicans had
played too much into the hands of
big business.
Suspicious Middle Class
Is Good for a Democracy
The sum total of the situation, as
regards the middle classes, is that
they have become critical again.
They followed Mr. Roosevelt un-
swervingly (speaking, now, of the
majority) and they accepted his
hit as hard as that of 1930,
found doubt in their minds.
they reasoned. So there
the natural sequence of criticism,
and the country began to think that
criticism was legitimate despite the
New Dealers’ barrage of propagan-
da that the criticism, itself, was
propaganda. With the
classes back in the suspicious mood
that is good for a democracy, they
are again occupying their rightful
role in government. There are
many times more of them than any
other group; they are the majority,
and they showed it again this year
by the sharp division of votes.
The New Deal, with the aid of
old line Jeffersonian Democrats,
will control the congress for the next
two years. But their control is not
of such a character as to permit
denial of rights to any individual
representative or senator or any
group of them. There can be no
mailed fist or “must” orders. In-
stead, if Majority Leader Barkley
in the senate and Majority Leader
their programs through, there must
be moderation. Extremes will spell
able that policies of a too radical
type could send the old line Demo-
crats over to the aid of the Repub-
licans and into a coalition to de-
stroy the New Deal utterly and ef-
fectively. There can be no more
rubber stamp business.
politically.
I am told by a number of politi-
cally important personages that the
election already has increased the
courage of some of the conservative
Democrats who were not outspoken
heretofore. It is predicted that
these will feel free now to tell the
President when they disagree. None
can foretell how far that situation
will develop. It is a part, how-
ever, of the thought that modera-
tion must be the rule.
Must Become Statesmen,
Quit Their Demagoguery
And, next, if the Republican lead-
ership has good sense, it will dis-
play its best brand. It will tell its
followers to become statesmen and
quit their demagoguery. The op-
portunity awaits them to be con-
structive and if they fail to put for-
ward sound proposals, they will
have justified the country in refus-
ing to give them control as was
done in 1936.
It is proper to say, of course,
that the Republicans will not be in
control of either the senate or the
house. That means, they can have
no management of legislative ma-
chinery. That machinery, which is
all-important in carrying forward
political party policies, remains in
the hands of the New Deal. But
the absence of control for the Re-
publicans can not destroy the re-
sponsibility which they have as-
sumed in electing 88 many mem-
bers of the congress as is recorded.
They dare not dodge that responsi-
bility.
Just ahead, therefore, lies the ne-
cessity for Mr. Roosevelt to realize
that there is a new public temper
which does not like extremes, and
for Chairman John Hamilton of the
Republican national committee, and
Republican Leader McNary in the
senate, and Republican Leader Mar-
tin in the house, there is the oppor-
tunity to fight for reasonable legis-
lation all of the way. These three
Republican leaders must have
something to offer besides criticism
of the New Deal.
