AN INTELLECTUAL COLOSSUS
As Franklin D. Roosevelt’s policies unfold themselves,
and with the emergence of each, one holds results be
yond the vision of even the most astute mind, one’s con
sciousness is smitten with the thought that, like great
men of history, who have gone before, here is a colossal
intellect capable of dominating a galaxy of brilliant men
and preordained to exert a tremendous influence not only
upon his nation but throughout the world.
Possibly if one element stands out above others
which go to make up his greatness, it is his confidence in
himself and the psychic influence he exerts upon his
fellowmen.
Mr. Roosevelt epitomizes the antithesis of the in
gredients which have long contributed to those whom
the world has called great. His laurels have not been
won by the sword or thru subjugation of weaker peoples.
On the contrary he presents the ideal type of pacifist, in
that he combined deepest sympathy and understanding
with a clarity of vision that is at times uncanny and
startling even to other master-minds.
Yet, this pacifiscm differs markedly from that of the
great Woodrow Wilson. It is “made of sterner stuff”
He is poised to offer the hand of brotherhood and fellow
ship, but can as readily strike out should the hand ad
vancing hold the mailed fist.
Combining Wilson’s gentleness and deep sympathy
for his fellow man with Theodore Roosevelt’s courage
and fighting spirit, he offers a composite structure as edi
fying as it is inspiring to the nation and the world.
Step by step he has all but readjusted the commercia
world. Hardly was the ink dry on his financial recon
struction program than he swung his energies to the
purely social problem of salvaging the nation’s youth
reinstate their self-respect and point them a brighter hori
zon studded with stars of promise.
Possibly no act during his brief administration is
more significant than his reclamation program, in whicl
the flower of youth is combining with the purely ma
terialistic in a sort of spiritual medley, in which the dam
age done to forests and soils by man in his greed, anc
that which false doctrines inflicted upon the perspectiv<
of youth, travel hand and hand towards a complete re
paration.
If no other act brands him as the astute statesmai
and politician it is this novitiate thm which the armle!
of youth of the land are passing into a more responsible
and wholesome future electorate.
Thus the way is being paved for a perpetuation o:
America’s renaissance long after the skilled architect o:
a new American has passed from the stage.
This renaissance is a reenthronement of America!
ideals as conceived by the wonder men who created th>
nation, setting a star to guide the future generations
and all the while solving the perplexities of the present.
Before this Morgan thing is finished it may be nec
cessary to start ejectment proceedings against the resi
dents of all penitentiaries to make room for new occu
pants.
Mr. Morgan should at least give the remainder of u
free rent until times pick up.
