Treading in such hallowed footsteps came the Democrats last week. Most frequent caller was Chicago's Mayor Edward J. Kelly, smirking in gentle good will, nodding approval .as his gorilla-shaped bodyguards tipped photographers off-balance as fast as they could get set for a picture. Almost as often came bald Frank C. Walker, oldtime White House adviser, white-haired Leo Crowley, FDIC Chairman who became chairman of Standard Gas & Electric (and is the New Dealers' 1942 hopeful for the Wisconsin Governorship); Jersey City's high-collared Mayor Frank Hague; and a long procession...
Consistently, A. Y. C. has refused to condemn Communism by name, or purge itself of Communist Party members or the Young Communist League. Its reason: to deny anyone a hearing is contrary to its creed. But a frequent charge against the Congress has been that an articulate and fast-stepping Communist minority has determined A. Y.

Month ago, an epidemic of sword swallowing started through the instinctively Republican ranks of businessmen. A frequent remark, especially in suburban and junior-executive circles: "I hate Roosevelt's guts, but I'll vote for him sooner than for Taft or Dewey." The reason for the epidemic was Adolf Hitler, who had reawakened in America the dormant sensation of patriotism. And President Roosevelt, by his aggressive rearmament policy, had begun to deflect the U. S. businessman's hatred of the New Deal toward Berlin. Young Republicans mistrusted Roosevelt, but they mistrusted the bumbling, obsolete, Chamberlainesque rituals...
...with a heavy upstream tide to contend with, eight varsity crews got away. Had chilled onlookers not been disgruntled by long delay and frequent false alarms, they might have taken home memories of a great race...
