BETWEEN THE LINES
liy Ucan (iurdon II llaiu-uck lor AN!’)
Tht- informal crusade to discredit the
Franklin Jo. Roosevelt goes on its ignomi-
nous way. When great Roosevelt
alive, tin* world stood aghast at his
of phenoeninal powers. When he came
presidency tie found a national economic¬
ally prostrate; he found the people
to the frustrated and frenzied with fear;
he found bread-lines and other lines
savored of a near national disaster.«
Roosevelt took over with a mighty hand,
and soon order came out of chaos
banished despair and soon our ship
state was sailing a placid sea. Wliat is
more, through the sagacity and resource¬
fulness of liis genius, our country entered
upon one of its most prosperous
in our national history. A critical situa¬
tion was saved, and the world gave
for the nation’s salvation.
Roosevelt was hailed in the
parts of the earth, and “Hall, Roosevelt!”
became the watchword oT the nation. Out
of gratitude for what Roosevelt had done
for the country, the people voted him into
the presidency four times in succession, an
unheard of political achievement in the
annals Of the presidency.
Little political scullions and do-funnies
found hiding in their holes and betook
themselves into the seclusion they verily
deserved. Roosevelt ruled absolutely and
with a master-hand. The late Robert Taft
and Harry Flood Byrd and others of their
turn of mind were disarmed by the impos¬
ing powers of a Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
T.iey went into hiding to all intents and
purposes.
In statesmanship and in the rough and
tumblegame of politics Roosevelt proved
himself a consummate master and genius.
He brought a new outlook in his New Deai
policies and a renewal confidence in our
national destiny. He even went so far as
to bring the humble Negro up for serious
consideration.
Gunnar Myrdal in his An American Di¬
lemma said that under Roosevelt and his
New Deal the nation made its first serious
attempt to integrate the American Negro.
No higher compliments could be paid the
matchless and incomparable Roosevelt. Then
Roosevelt died!
The old adage, “When the cats are away
the mice come out to play,” was fulfilled
to the letter; for no sonnet had Roosevelt

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
passed than the little snipers came crawl¬
ing out of their holes. Little bumpkin
politicians ‘around Washington began to
get their names in the daily press and
erstwhile tip-toeing Sycophants (became
overnight congressional bullies thfpwing
their weight around in Washington.
Led by Westbrook Pegler, a movement
launched to discredit Roosevelt, and it is
at times alarming to see how the movement
is gathering momentum. Dead men cannot
defend themselves, and if the living are
willing to make a career of slandering and
viilifying the dead, there is nothing the
dead can do about it!
It has come about today that everything
wrong with the government and the world,
is being laid at the door of our dead
president who cannot defend himself. The
second guessers are having a field day*
and their chief ambition seems to hinge
about discrediting a dead man.
When the bulldog is blind the pugs are
mastiffs. It is even so when a great man
is dead, little men grow fat by feeding on
the moral vitals of the dead. It is easy
enough for the political Lilliputians ot. to¬
day to find fault with what Roosevelt and
Churchill did at Potsdam and Toheran and
Yalta; tout no account is taken of the fact
that the men were face to face with a
situation and met it head-on.
If the current crop of political runts were
worth the;,r weight in lead, they could
master today’s qritical (situation by other
means than by defaming the dead. It is
easy to second guess on the rights and
wrongs of situations none -know but the
first guessers. It is silly to expect men to
be infallible in all critical situations; but
it is downright diabolical to impute to hon¬
est men specious and ulterior motives.
To this writer Roosevelt is just as great
in his grave as when he made an end
of our exttnditi breadlines; as when
he made banking safe by insuring our hard
earned savings; as when he was contend¬
ing that the South Was the nation’s eco¬
nomic problem number one and implying
that since the Negro was the South’s econom¬
ic problem number one, the Negro was Hie
nation's economic problem number one, as
when he saved our .great nation from bloody
revolution!
Second guessism is dangerous and dis¬
astrous !
