Rosenman Tells
About Willkie,
Roosevelt Plan
By NEA Service’
NEW YORK — (NEA) — The
Jeaths of Wendell Willkie and
Franklin Roosevelt put an end to
talks which might have competely
reorganized America’s political
parties. The story of those discus
<ions has been reveal(r/l by the
one man who knew about them—
Judge Samuel Rosenman, a trusted
Roosevelt adviser.
It was in the Summer of 1944,
when Roosevelt was campaigning
against Gov. Thomas Dewey, that
he called Rosenman into his of
{ ¢
«we ought to have in the
United States two real parties,”
Rosenman quotes Roosevelt as
saving, “‘one represerniing the lib
eral and the other the conserva
tive point of view. As it is now,
each party is split by dissenters.
“The Southern reactionaries
have no right to call themselves
Democrats today, and have no
right to stay in our party with its
liberal platform. In the same way
Willkie and the Republican pro
gressiveg don’t belong in the party
of (ex-President Herbert) Hoover
and (Rep. Joseph) Martin and
(Sen. John) Bricker.”
* *® &
The President went on, Rosen
man econtinues in his article, in
the May issue of Ladies’ Home
Journal, to reveal his plan. He
and Willkie would form a “new,
really liberal party in America”
from the liberals of both parties.
Roosevelt asked his adviser to con
tact Willkie and discuss the idea
with him.
Rosenman went to New York
and arranged a meeting with Will
kie, who as the Republican presi
dential nominee in 1940, had
campaigned = against = Roosevelt.
They met at the St. Regis Hotel
in New York on July 5. The meet
ing was sa secret that Willkie went
into an adjoining room when the
waiter brought lunch, so he
would’'s be seen with Rosenman,
FDR's emissary explianed
Roosevelt's ideas, telling Willkie
that the President felt they “were
both thinking along the same
lines.” i
“He wants te team up with
ou,” Roseman says he told
‘&'illkio, “for he is sure that the
two of you can do it together.”
- . =
Willkie was ~enthusiastic. He
said his own (Republican) party
was controlled by’ the reaction
aries, and felt that ‘“both parties
are hybrids” Roseman says he
got the impression Willkie was
excited about the prospect of
fighting on the -same .side with,
rather than against, Rooseveit. |
“You 'tell ' the . President,”
Roseman says Willkie told him,
“that I'm ready to devote almost
full time to this. A sound, lib
eral government in the United
States is absolutely = essential to
continued co-operation: with the
other nations of the world. I
know these reactionaries—espe
cially those in my : own party.
They’ll run out on the other na
tions when the going gets tough
—just as soon as they can.’
Willkie set one condition. He
din’t want to do anything until
after the election, the coming
November. -It was his feeling
that, as a Republican party leader,
he would be accused of trading
or being traded with if he met
openly with Roosevelt during the
hot campaign.
Roosevelt, however, when he
heard from Rosenman how eager
ly Willkie accepted the sugges
tion, was impatient. Without con
ting anyone, even Roseman,
he sat down on July 13 and
wrote Willkie a letter. In it," he

College Students Evidence Great
Inferest In Giving Blood To Drive
By NEA Service
WASHINGTON —(NEA)— The
initials “8.M.0.C.” used to mean
one thing in undergraduate lingo
—“Big Man on Campus.” Now, at
100-odd colleges and universities,
they also mean “Bloodmobile on
Campus.”
From Cambridge, Mass., to Ca
marillo, Calif., the blood-donating
idea is taking hold among college
students. At the University of
Nebraska, they have even formed
a co-educational blood donor fra
ternity, “Beta Delta.” Students are
pledged when they sign up to do
nate blood and become full
fledged members when they give
their first pint.
Bloodmobile visits to college
and university campuses began al
most as soon as the Red Cross
civilian blood donor program got
under way early in 1948. And do
nations by collegians have snow
balled since the Red Cross has
added procurement of blood for
military purposes to its responsi
bilities. Since last April 1, returns
from approximately 120 colleges
have exceeded 20,000 pints of
blood.
Student participation in the
Red Cross blood donor program
has received the maximum en
couragement and cooperation
from college and university au
thorities. It has been fostered also
by endorsements from such or
ganizations as the National Inter
fraternity Conference, Alpha Phi
Omega, national service fraterni
ty, the American Law Student
Association, and the executive
committee of the American Coun-

But probably the major stimu
lus has been the enthusiasm of
the students themselves and their
competitive spirit. When the stu
dents of the University of Idaho
at Moscow were recruiting for a
three-day blood collection recent
ly, their rallying cry was “Beat
Harvard.” Students at the eastern
university had given 934 pints not
long before. Idaho did beat Har
vard, both numerically and on the
basis of its enrollment-—lOl4 do
nations, 33 per cent of its en
rollment of 3047.
Idaho students forthwith issued
a challenge to over 600 other
schools to surpass that record. It
was quickly accepted and the
Idaho record has fallen. The Uni
versity of Washington bested it
numerically with 1579 pints in
three collection days.
* B %
Three other colleges—Davidson
in North Carolina, with 57 per
cent of its student body becoming
blood donors; St. Michael College,
Burlington, Vt., with 51 per cent,
and Holy Cross, Worcester, Mass.,
with 41.3 per cent—have dislodged
it from top position percentage
wise, among schools with enroll
ments of more than 500.

by tiny St. John's Seminary, Ca

and faculty members, all but 12
of its total, or 87 per cent, gave
blood at a Winter bloodmobile
visit.
On many campuses, the students
themselves take over all recruit

college paper, posters in college
buildings, and registration booths
around the campus. When avail
able, World War II veterans
among the students who received
blood themselves or saw it used
on the battlefronts, take active
