History of the Week shows shifting party lines and New Deal drift
An interpretative digest by Glendon Williams notes a radical shift within the Republican Party toward New Deal ideas. Landon’s platform hints at social legislation, wage and working condition regulation, and broader civil service. Borah’s stance remains uncertain as tax and foreign policy debates loom. International notes cover war debt payments, French labor changes, and unrest in China and Japan, with naval movements affecting American interests.

Leader readers are urged to promptly notify the subscription department of address changes to avoid missed issues and postage due notices. The piece then digresses into a unrelated discussion about English language, Mencken, and economic ideas from the 1920s, touching on language expansion, industrial finance, and policy, with no direct link to the main notice.
