|  | At this critical hour, the Nation faces the
most important decision since 1860. That election confronted
voters
with a stark choice: whether to preserve the Union or to acquiesce in
its
destruction. The election of 1932
presents the same choice. Will America retain the calm,
sensible leadership that has prevented an excessive response to the
current economic difficulties, or will it turn its back on American
values and embrace Soviet-style Socialism? The
Spy urges
its readers to put aside all issues of narrow self-interest, such as
food and shelter. Instead, the electorate should put its
country first by casting a ballot for Herbert Hoover, the Republican
candidate for President. We are
not insensible to the misfortunes of those who have lost their jobs,
homes, savings, or family due to the present economic situation.
We say to those unfortunates; the path to recovery does not
run through Moscow. Rather,
recovery can only happen when government stays out of the affairs of
business, and lets business create jobs and prosperity.
Imagine what would happen if the salutary job-creating
efforts of small business were to be strangled by redistributionist and
confiscatory taxation, or even worse, compelled trade unionism! We admit that the Democratic candidate, Mr.
F.D. Roosevelt, is a smooth and polished speaker. He has
a good educational background. But what do we
really know about Mr. Roosevelt? That he has spent one
term as Governor of the State of New York, a hotbed of leftist
thinking. That he consorts with known agitators and criminal
syndicalists, such as Mr. Harry Hopkins. That he has little
executive experience and no knowledge of business. What would America be like under the regime of
Roosevelt? We got a frightening preview just this summer,
when thousands of Communist hooligans, pretending to be "veterans"
seeking "bonuses" besieged Washington City, threatening insurrection
until President Hoover and Gen. MacArthur rousted the malefactors and
restored peace and harmony at gunpoint. This
is no time to risk our country's future on untested leadership,
especially of a pinkish hue. This is a time to restore
our country's greatness and prosperity by voting the straight
Republican ticket. The choice is obvious and the duty of the
voter is clear: to re-elect President Herbert Hoover. –
