HOI’E FOR REPUBLICANS IN FUTURE
One of the most entertaining of indoor games for cold
winter evening is trying to figure out what is going to hap
pen to the republican party.
It it dead, waiting only the services of coroner and mor
tician? It is just sick, waiting for the services of a doctor?
Or is it beginning a slow but sure recovery which will pres
ently carry it back to full health and national power?
Dr. Charles A. Beard, historian, suggests tfiat one way
to answer these questions is to look at history. In the cur
rent issue of Scribner's magazine he takes such a look, and
from it he concludes that the G O P is a long way from dead,
in spite of the merciless shellacking it has had to take.
Twice before, he says, there has been a great upheaval
of forgotten men at the polls. The first took place in 1800
;.nd put Thomas Jefferson in the White House; the second
occurred in 1828 and'resulted in the election of Andrew
Jackson.
Each time the party of wealth and power was snowed
under and the “revolution” looked like a permanent thing.
But each time war and the development of business enter
prise put the rich and powerful back in the saddle.
The Jeffersonian revolution went along swimmingly
until we got into the war of 1812. The war’s end found Am
erican industry, stimulated by war expenditures, a giant in
comparison with its previous status; it is also found an im
mense public debt in the hands of bankers and business men.
So the forgotten man had to gather his forces for a new
assault. This came in the election of Jackson, and this time
the revolution looked even more like a solid and everlasting
affair. But once again business enterprise went ahead at
an unforseen pace. Once again there came a war—the Civ
il war, time—to upset the balance still further,.
When the dust had cleared away, the elements Jackson
had overthrown were firmly re-established.
Now we have the “Roosveelt revolution, with the re
publican party taking an awful beating. Is the new state of
affairs to be permanent?
Dr. Beard sees no reason for thinking so. The economic
base has not shifted. The New Deal has not taken the instru
mentalities of economic power from their former possessors.
Studying all this in the light of history, Dr. Beard sees
little reason to look for permanence in the overthrow of for
ces for which the republican party has been the spokesman.

ence that adds terrific power to the
entire production,

the cares of marital life. She shows
a depth of feeling tijpt establishes

who complicates Tracy's first marr
iage and marries him in his “second
