As Pegler Sees it: 4
The Revolution |
Of Millionaires
By WESTBROOK PEGLER
HE “REVOLUTION” which Mrs. Roosevelt some-
times refers to with a sweetness more disturbing
than beguliing seems to be & fascist-proletarlan de-
velopment. The characteristics are plainer day by
day In dealing with unique movements fn history,
we have to use old labels until developments give
existence to new and permanent
terms. #2/ 0 -utl
“Fascist” comes handy bere as a
provisional iitie for Mrs" Roose-
velt's revolution because that revi-
lution has been taken up with
exuberant zeal by many millionaires,
forcmost among them her own Mate
4 husband. At least a thousand
Nisa can be counted In the
fold left of “center” and that is why
I regard this as a fascist sort of revo-
lution rather than the straight, Red
Marxian terror which started all
this in Petrograd in 3927.
Most of us forget that Mussolini's fascism was
numerically more proletarian than capitalistic. It was
a great popular movement.
And the fact that millions of the common man,
as the Roosevelt movement calied the American citi-
zen, have joined this American revolution only rounds
out the similarity to Mussolini's. Roosevelt, too, was «
leader but to a lesser degree. His wife called him our
“elected ruler.”

The popular opinion of millionaires holds that N, Y. Daily News
they cherish their riches and for that reason we are N. Y. Times
justified in believing that the movement with which Daily Worker
