Is 1923 Te Be A
"Hen-Raiser's Year?"
"Discontent has swept the country"; there is a "restless searching of the electorate for
some new way out of its troubles." "It will be a 'Hell-Raiser's Year.' "
In these words, independent Kansas City, Chicago, and New Yerk editors in turn
explain what happened en November 7th, and they express what seems te be the prevailing
sentiment in second thought editorial interpretation of the election.
There is a very interesting news-feature in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week,
November 25th, which analyzes the cause for Republican defeat and what the Democrats
really gained. "There has been a general smashing of pronounced reactionaries," gleefully
reports a labor daily (Minnesota Star), while the Newark News remarks that the radicals
bearing a party badge are in the ascendant, armed for assault for party control two years hence.
If the forecast of conditions is accurate the programs of reactionary groups in Congress at
shown in this article will be enlightening te the public at this time.
