Bricker Links One Man Rule to New Deal Critics
Chicago AP Governor Bricker of Ohio argues the basic issue of the time is whether one man or one party will permanently regiment 139,000,000 Americans. He claims the New Deal seeks total domination and criticizes executive ultimatums, while urging Congress to reclaim policy making and end centralization. The speech blames the White House for blocking soldier voting legislation and references Barkley’s resignation as a crisis point. Bricker labels the court and era as torn by dissension, calling for constitutional government and full disclosure of facts to allow public will.
