Canada's Loss?

The Ottawa Journal, listening to the political whoop-de-do across the U.S. border, commented:

"American elections differ from our own; [Americans] have more of the gift for the snappy phrase. . . . Thus we have John L. Lewis describing Sidney Hillman . . . as 'a Russian pants-maker who is trying to take over the rule of the nation.' Who can think of a single good quip by Sir Robert Borden or Mr. Bennett or Mr. King? . . . Who can equal Mr. Ickes' phrase about the youthful Mr. Dewey 'throwing his diapers into the ring,' or his description of Wendell Willkie as 'the barefoot boy from Wall Street?'

"It is, in a way, our loss."
