Description
Elizabeth Dilling sets out to prove the New Deal of the 1930’s follows the Communist party plan. She
claims Roosevelt allows no dissent and his plan is an iron heel of tyranny. No free speech, abolishing
property rights and destroying private businesses, using tax funds to train radical agitators, class hate
and unrest and group control over communications. Dilling writes, “It is my personal surmise that
Roosevelt is merely an ambitious rich man’s son, eager for honors and dictatorial power and flattered
with the idea that his “reign” is a beneficent one.” She compares the Communist party platform to the
New Deal legislation and the use of government funds to aid the Red cause. Key topics are Carnegie
Foundation, Twentieth Century Fund, Rockefeller, AT&T, Karl Marx, Fredrich Engels, League for
Industrial Democracy, Abolition of the family, Tennessee Valley Authority, Union strikes, AFL-CIO, Upton
Sinclair, University of Chicago, Jane Addams, Social and racial equality, contraception, sex education,
and infiltration of churches.
