Stand idafe Willkie
Roasted and Toasted
By Party Debaters
Four Representatives
Swap Verbal Blows
In Network Discussion
Debating the chances of the Re
publican ticket In November, four
members of Congress, speaking on
the American Forum of the Air here
last night over the Mutual Broad
eating network, pictured Wendell
L. Willkie, in turn, as “the answer to
a weary citizen's prayer” and “as a
corporate magician with insufficient
political experience for the presi
dency.”
Representative Dirksen, Repub
lican, of Illinois asserted that Re
publican prospects of victory are ex
cellent, because of a national "weari
ness resulting from the failure of
the party in power to initiate needed
reforms” and because of the desire
for a new emotional pattern sym
bolized by Mr. Willkie.
“Defeatism must be driven away,”
said Mr. Dirksen. “That is why
Wendell Willkie has captivated the
fancy of people in all walks of life.
* * * People will listen to him,
and listening people become sup
porters."
Representative Smith, Democrat,
of Illinois saw Mr. Willkie as “tem
peramentally, a miniature of Frank
lin Roosevelt.” And the Republican
principles, to Mr. Smith, “are but a
rehash of what it has taken the
Democrats eight years to make into
acceptable doctrine.”
Mr. Smith contended Mr. Willkie’s
experience as a utilities company
executive is undesirable for the
presidency because such a back
ground "makes one an interested
party in the game in which govern
ment must be disinterested about”
and it “gets one into a certain habit
of high-handedness W'hich is very
bad for democratic co-operation.”
“I wonder, and doubt,” concluded
Mr. Smith, “whether the American
people will turn over to an utter
political novice the most important
political job in the world at one
of the most dangerous moments ot
our whole national life.”
Representative Crawford. Repub
lican, of Michigan sided with Mr.
Dirksen in the debate, while Repre
sentative Hobbs, Democrat, of Ala
bama supported Mr. Smith. Theo
dore Granik presided.

Unemployed Youth
Loom Large in U. S.
Defense Program
More Than 1,000,000
May Be Involved if
Plans Materialize
By the Associated Press.
America's 3,900,000 unemployed;
youth loom large in the Nation's de- j
tense program.
Kenneth Holland, associate direc
tor of the American Youth Commis
sion, estimates more than 1,000,000
young men and women may be in
volved if plans now under discus
sion are carried out.
He lists these prospects:
Enlistment of 200,000 idle youth in
the Army, Navy, Air Corps and Ma
rines if the selective service draft
is applied to increase the Nation’s
armed strength to 850,000.
Training of perhaps 550,000 young
men and women under the Na
tional Youth Administration in va
rious trades, if expansions now un
der discussion are effected.
Training of another 300,000 youth
as cooks, mechanics, truck drivers
and similar vocations in the Civilian
Conservation Corps.
Possible employment, directly or
indirectly, of another 200,000 by pri
vate industry because of expanding
war industries.
"Prospects for the estimated
3.900,000 unemployed youth—so far
as finding work on either Govern
ment projects or private industry
become considerably better since de
velopment of an active program for
national defense,” says Mr. Holland,
who has been asigned by the com
mission to study the youth labor
problem.
"But the United States still will
be faced with a major unemployed,
out-of-school youth problem.”
