American Lives: Eugene V. Debs
Earning nearly a million votes—6% of the total cast—in his fourth run for the presidency in
1912, Socialist Eugene V. Debs mistakenly believed that the Socialist Party of America (SPA)
stood on the edge of an impending electoral revolution. Known as a radical advocate for the
working class, Debs and other Socialists shared a vision for a new America in which workers
would stand united and solve many of the ills of industrial society.
Under ideal socialism, collective or government ownership of utilities, services, and businesses
would in theory equalize the social classes and evenly distribute wealth among the population.
Poverty would be reduced, and all citizens would share in the nation’s prosperity. In the Pro-
gressive era more than 100 local and state officials and two congressmen were elected under
the SPA. Although Progressives were not Socialists, they expressed similar ideals such as mak-
ing capitalism more responsive to the needs of the average citizen and regulating businesses to
level the playing field in major industries.
bar82063_06_c06_165-198.indd 166 1/9/15 9:32 AM
Ailing health prevented Debs from challenging incumbent Woodrow Wilson in the 1916 presi-
dential election, but as Wilson prepared the country to enter the world war a year later, Debs
returned to public life and delivered a series of scathing antiwar speeches. Debs argued that
workingmen were disproportionately affected when the nation went to war. They were, he said,
exploited as a fightin.

Chapter 22: Fighting for the Four Freedoms: World War II, 1941 to 1945
The most popular works of art in World War II were paintings of the Four Freedoms by Norman Rockwell. In his State of the Union address before Congress in January 1941, President Roosevelt spoke of a future world order based on “essential human freedoms”: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. During the war, Roosevelt emphasized these freedoms as the Allies’ war aims, and he compared them to the Ten Commandments, the Magna Carta, and the Emancipation Proclamation. In his paintings, created in 1943, Rockwell portrayed ordinary Americans exercising these freedoms: a citizen speaking at a town meeting, members of different religious groups at prayer, a family enjoying a Thanksgiving dinner, and a mother and father standing over a sleeping child.
Though Rockwell presented images of small-town American life, the United States changed dramatically in the course of the war. Many postwar trends and social movements had wartime origins. As with World War I, but on a far greater scale, wartime mobilization expanded the size and reach of government and stimulated the economy. Industrial output skyrocketed and unemployment disappeared as war production finally ended the Depression. Demands for labor drew millions of women into the workforce and lured millions of migrants from rural America to industrial cities of the North and West, permanently changing the nation’s social geography.
The war also gave the United States a new and lasting international role and reinforced the idea that America’s security required the global dominance of American values and power. Government military spending unleashed rapid economic development in the South and West, laying the basis for the modern Sunbelt. The war created a close alliance between big business and a militarized federal government—what President Dwight D. Eisenhower later called the “military-industrial complex.”
And the war reshaped the boundaries of American nationality. The government recognized the contributions of America’s ethnic groups as loyal Americans. Black Americans’ second-class status attracted national attention. But toleration went only so far. The United States, at war with Japan, forced more than 100,000 Japanese-Americans, including citizens, into internment camps.
The Four Freedoms thus produced a national unity that obscured divisions within America: divisions over whether free enterprise or the freedom of a global New Deal would dominate after the war, whether civil rights or white supremacy would define race relations, and whether women would return to traditional roles in the household or enter the labor market. The emphasis on freedom as an element of private life would become more and more prominent in postwar America.
