Hate Campaign Against Roosevelt Rages in America
Earl Godwin Ashington details a rising hate campaign aimed at forcing Roosevelt from office. He blames Liberty League allies and Dupont circles for slandering Mrs. Roosevelt and labels Hastings a betrayer of constitutional relief programs. The piece links anti-Roosevelt sentiment to aristocratic business power and discusses broader New Deal dam and policy debates.
