Wendell Willkie and 1944 (9-21-41)

The Pittsburgh Press (September 21, 1941) WENDELL WILLKIE AND 1944 By Bertram Benedict, editorial research reports writer Persons in politics and outside of politics all over the country are asking themselves: The way Wendell Willkie keeps himself in the spotlight, is he trying to get the presidential nomination again in 1944? Or is he only trying to dictate what the GOP foreign policy shall be? The difficulty in the way of Willkie staying in the spotlight is that he is in private life.…

The Washington Merry-Go-Round (10-21-41)

The Pittsburgh Press (October 21, 1941) The Washington Merry-Go-Round By Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen Washington – The Republican isolationist logjam is slowly but steadily breaking up. Another big chunk will cut loose in the person of Tom Dewey. Shortly after the New York City elections, the dapper little District Attorney, who is voluntarily quitting this job which gave him his political start, will make a speech in which he will desert the isolationist camp.

Clapper: Reciprocity (3-9-43)

The Pittsburgh Press (March 9, 1943) Clapper: Reciprocity By Raymond Clapper Washington – Some Republicans in Congress are in favor of a truce to permit the reciprocal trade act to stand until after the war. The present act expires June 30. Naturally the administration wants it extended. Repudiation of the policy now, of all times, would work serious damage to our international relations, it would handicap our officials severely in all diplomatic negotiations that must be carried on in c…

I Dare Say -- Parrygraphs (3-17-43)

The Pittsburgh Press (March 17, 1943) [parry2] I DARE SAY — Parrygraphs By Florence Fisher Parry How long ago it seems when the President told us that we should not lose one social gain, come war… What now?.. Feed the world and have our cake too? Ah millennium, how you do elude us! Heaven knows we need to sell war bonds; but whenever I see a news picture of some nice modest factor in his community blushing under the photo-flash of a news photographer who has just “snapped” him kissing s…

Shadow of 1944 (4-4-43)

The Pittsburgh Press (April 4, 1943) Shadow of 1944 By Bertram Benedict, editorial research reports Washington – The 1944 presidential elections are already casting a sizable shadow over Washington. Many of the maneuvers in Congress are obviously designed to strengthen or weaken one party as against the other on Nov. 7, 1944. The first 1944 presidential primaries are only a year away. If President Roosevelt were now to announce that he would not accept a fourth term, he might run into le…

Editorial: Is Stalin mixing in our politics? (1-9-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (January 9, 1944) [americavotes1944] Editorial: Is Stalin mixing in our politics? Folks are laughing about the way Pal Joe Stalin has turned on Wendell Willkie. It is amusing. But it will not hurt Mr. Willkie politically. One Willkie liability was that he was said to be too cozy with the Russians. Now, Marshal Stalin has disowned him. We doubt that the fourth-termers are rejoicing over the implication that Moscow wants Mr. Roosevelt reelected. Certainly there will be …

Pegler: Fourth term (1-29-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (January 29, 1944) [americavotes1944] [pegler] Pegler: Fourth term By Westbrook Pegler New York – A fourth term for President Roosevelt would just about finish off the form of government under which we lived when he took office in 1933, but even though the men and women in the services undoubtedly would give him a big bulge over Tom Dewey in the autumn election, I say Congress had better find some way to let them have their say. In thus nominating Governor Dewey, I…

Pegler: Dewey’s record (2-3-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (February 3, 1944) [americavotes1944] [pegler] Pegler: Dewey’s record By Westbrook Pegler Albany, New York – It would be foolish to pretend that the rising interest in Tom Dewey’s work as Governor of New York is limited to just that. Although he is not a declared candidate for the Republican nomination for the Presidency nobody is naïve enough to think he would refuse to and that is why his work as governor, the adoption of a short, understandable state income tax …

Editorial: Model for a President (2-22-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (February 22, 1944) [americavotes1944] Editorial: Model for a President This year of decision, in which the American people will determine the course and character of their government for the next four fateful years, will have need of every possible guidepost. The election of a President is alone one of the most crucial steps ever to confront any people. Who the nominees will be cannot now be foretold.

Ferguson: Voting privileges (3-6-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (March 6, 1944) [americavotes1944] [img] Ferguson: Voting privileges By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Considering the many rights a nation takes away from its soldiers, the right to vote must seem trivial to fighting men. They’ve been asked to give up their rights to a normal life, business, education, careers, even their lives, yet a great many people talk as if justice will be theirs if only they can mark a ballot in 1944. I dare say this sounds fantastic to one who venture…

I Dare Say – Poker game (3-29-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (March 29, 1944) [americavotes1944] [parry2] I DARE SAY — Poker game By Florence Fisher Parry Thomas L. Stokes is writing some very pungent political commentary. His column the other day on Wendell Willkie’s minor league itinerary seems to me to be one of the most pungent pieces of reporting of recent date. For the presidential campaign is upon us, a campaign that promises to be the most dramatic this country has ever known. Mr. Willkie has devoted the last four ye…

I Dare Say – Travesty (4-7-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (April 7, 1944) [americavotes1944] [parry3] I DARE SAY — Travesty By Florence Fisher Parry Wendell Willkie is through. That’s what people are saying, the stunned ones and the gloating ones alike. The Republican Party does not want him. Four years ago, it did. Four years ago, 22,304,755 people voted for him – the greatest number of people who ever cast their votes for any one man, except Franklin D. Roosevelt, for President. No Republican total for any elected Presi…

I Dare Say – A good man (4-13-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (April 13, 1944) [americavotes1944] [parry3] I DARE SAY — A good man By Florence Fisher Parry The reaction of our Pittsburgh Progressive Republicans to the withdrawal of Wendell Willkie from the presidential race has been interesting and depressing. “Sinister politics,” they say. “The Republican Party has cooked its goose.” Some even vow that they won’t go to the polls in November. “We deserve defeat,” others say darkly. Still others come out with the old chestnut…

Ferguson: Fourth term and Mrs. R (4-25-44)

The Pittsburgh Press (April 25, 1944) [americavotes1944] [img] Ferguson: Fourth term and Mrs. R By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Mrs. Roosevelt can claim one distinction: She is the only person in the United States who says she is not curious about Mr. Roosevelt’s fourth term intentions. The rest of us want to know, and I think his silence makes woeful waste since reams of paper are used daily as the commentators argue the matter. The First Lady played the same game in 1940. Until the moment she…
