Incorporated Americans

Fortnight ago was formed the American Liberty League to "guard American property and personal rights" from the New Deal. Last week to the New Deal's rescue sprang Americans, Inc. What distinguished the "nonpartisan" ALL was the fact that its founders were all celebrated political enemies of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. What distinguished "nonpartisan" Americans, Inc. was the fact that all but one of its founders were inconsequential Democrats devoted to the President and all his policies. Lineup of Americans, Inc.:

Senator Kenneth Douglas McKellar, for 23 years a Democratic jobholder from Tennessee. In the Senate he is better known for his windy speeches than his words of wisdom.

Representative Isabella Greenway of Arizona, "only Roosevelt bridesmaid in Congress."

Florence Jaffray ("Daisy") Harriman, president of the Woman's National Democratic Club, outstanding Washington hostess under the New Deal.

Senator William John Bulow of South Dakota, tobacco-chewing wit whom Will Rogers calls "funnier than I am." The Senate has yet to be shown.

Representative Henry Bascom Steagall of Alabama, smalltown lawyer and Democratic wheel horse since 1902. Mr. Steagall is jealous of Virginia's Senator Carter Glass whose name comes first on the Banking Act of 1933.

To take the Democratic curse off Americans, Inc. Rear Admiral Mark Lambert Bristol, U. S. N., retired, was invited to join. An old sea dog trained to do diplomatic tricks, Admiral Bristol commanded the Navy's base in Wartime England, was high commissioner in post-War Turkey, went to the Lausanne Conference.

Americans, Inc. is avowedly designed to aid the New Deal platform and explain it to people "who too frequently are influenced by the headlines prompted by the statements of a worn-out and discarded stand-pattism," believes that "recovery is essential to national existence" and adheres to "the principles and ideals of Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Grover Cleveland, William McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt."
