Mood

>National pollers disclosed two signs of the increasingly conservative mood of the U. S. electorate:

>Only 18.8% believe that the Roosevelt Administration should "continue with more reforms along the lines already laid out" (FORTUNE). Of the rest 40.5% want to "try nothing new," 26.9% want conservatives to "undo the damage already done," 13.8% don't know.

>Democratic voters are 41% in favor of a conservative candidate in 1940, 59% in favor of a New Dealer, compared to 37% and 63%, respectively, before the Purge (Gallup).

>If Germany and Italy go to war against England and France, 71% of Democrats, 69% of Republicans, 65% of other partisans think the U. S. should "do everything possible to help England and France win, except go to war ourselves" (Gallup--see p. 14).
