The Utopian movement, whipped up into big breakers by the 1934 campaign, spent itself in the defeat of California's Upton Sinclair and his EPIC. Its successor, the Townsend Plan, touched its high watermark just before Chairman Doughton of the House Ways & Means Committee put the old country doctor on the witness stand and made a monkey out of him (TIME, Feb. 18).

...year or a ten-year plan, but certainly not by an 18-month plan. And the campaign of 1936 is not more than 18 months ahead. If there is not recovery in 18 months then radicals will storm at the ivory gates of the Capitol. The Huey Longs, the Upton Sinclairs, the Father Coughlins, the Dr. Townsends- their successors, their deputies, their proselytes, or their social kin-will be the strong men of politics. Only Recovery can ward them off, can save Franklin Roosevelt from having his left flank turned. Therefore a helping hand to Business and Recovery, more leisurely...

True, such projects as organized relief and the Tennessee power development point the way for the liberal element. Thus Upton Sinclair borrowed from Mr. Hopkins the concept of cooperative relief, and Norman Thomas admits his admiration of T.V.A. From this trend in time a fully developed party may spring, not necessarily a "red" organization, but quite possibly a powerful one, if it can appeal to the mass of Roosevelt supporters by going the President one better.
