Internal party fault lines and postwar strategy emerge
The piece argues that two parties face a vital battle over health of the system and governing direction. It highlights Republican leaders like Stassen as potential catalysts for a revolt within the party, with figures such as Morse, Tobey, Aiken, Lafollette, Buckley Lucé, and Herter noted as contributing to a constructive, creative wing. It also discusses Truman’s uncertain course and southern resistance, suggesting Stassen could lead a progressive stance if supported, while noting opposition from within the GOP aiming to sidelinet him before 1948.
