...that this illegitimate child of yours came of educational age this week, hit the headlines in Boston papers by presenting Democratic ex-Governor Ely of Massachusetts, Communist Earl Browder, and Fascist Lawrence Dennis in this Republican bailiwick debating "What lies ahead for Capitalism." Twenty-five hundred packed the hall built for 1,500; hundreds were turned away; people came from all over the metropolitan area and from points as distant as Concord, N. H. and Providence, R. I.
