Red Kiss

For two decades, praise from U.S. Communists has been a political kiss of death. Last week the leader of U.S. Communists gave the leader of U.S. Republicans a somewhat condescending, but firm, bussing. Said Earl Browder of Wendell Willkie's new book, One World:

"Something new under the sun. . . . Mr. Willkie's main thesis, that the Axis can be destroyed only by waging real coalition war against it, is entirely sound. . . . The force and originality with which he develops this thesis ... is a major contribution to the war. . . .

"Mr. Willkie's book gives no impression of weakness, however, but is robust, fresh, courageous and hits hard. ... It brings forward the outstanding candidate for the Republican nomination for the Presidency in 1944 in a very strong position. Let us hope he will give us an equally strong book on domestic problems before the next year."
