...does not need to be a camp-follower of Hoover to delight in his recent political exhibitions, which add great zest to already stirring issues. The possible effects demand some sort of estimate. We should not forget that in 1932 he received the biggest minority vote in history. As a probable indication of the way his thoughts are tending, it is not out of order to inspect his flattering mention of Cleveland-the only president to make a come-back after being defeated.

But that was about all. The regents of the Bank of France, potent oligarchs of orthodox finance, soon took Governor Tannery into camp, assisted in maneuvering M. Flandin out of the Premiership, and substituted for credit-loosening and pump-priming during the eight month Premiership of Pierre Laval a comforting façade of French Treasury orthodoxy behind which burgeoned the deficits from which France has been unable to escape since...
