...platform, Frank Knox, like all the other Republican candidates for the nomination, will perforce make one from what they consider Franklin Roosevelt's mistakes. To date he stands broadly for Economy and the Constitution. He advocates social justice without the New Deal, an agricultural export subsidy for the Farmers instead of AAA, collective bargaining for Labor without the coercion of the Wagner Bill. An old fox runs slowly, lest in his agitation his sweat leave a stronger trail for his pursuers. Somewhat on this principle, it was the pre-War fashion for aspirants to the Presidential nomination to proceed...

But the most sudden and surprising upset in the world's wheat trade occurred in Argentina, where drought and locusts cut the prospective harvest nearly 50%. In good Latin American tradition the crop was officially overestimated early in the season, causing...
...Ohio's Representative Theodore E. Burton introduced a resolution to empower the President to prohibit at his discretion export of arms & munitions to the aggressor in any war. Then & there arose the issue which has divided U. S. neutrality-seekers ever since, setting the Senate implacably against the President and State Department. Unwilling to let the President pick sides in a war by naming the aggressor, isolationist Senators asserted that an arms embargo should apply automatically to all belligerents. Otherwise, they argued, the embargoed nation would be certain to strike back exactly as Germany had struck. Firmly the State...
