Abstract

Issues and Men. The Roosevelt Strategy Fails

Villard, Garrison Oswald | December 25, 1935 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's political strategies. The declaration of war upon the New Deal by the National Association of Manufacturers and their announced determination to go into politics to defeat the Roosevelt program, the united attack of the public utilities upon the utility holding-company law, and the obvious efforts of big business to assail new legislation in the courts on every front constitute a sinister and alarming development in political life. These forces insist that their views as to the U.S. national policies shall prevail, that Congress shall legislate exactly as they wish and above all else refuse to "truckle to labor" any further.
