Albee Slade interviews Helen Gahagan Douglas, a democratic candidate for congress, on her support for President Roosevelt's domestic and international programs. Douglas emphasizes the importance of realistic taxes, controlling inflation, and renegotiating war contracts to ensure fair treatment for taxpayers and prevent excessive profits during the war. She argues that sacrificing fairness and democracy for profit jeopardizes the faith and sacrifices of American servicemen and women.
