THE NATIONAL SCENE Special To The-Chromele: Washington, June 23.— Are con vention platform*, nterely for - public | consumption, mere promises ;md not meant for per forma ace. or a as they 1 solemn pledges to the voters of the Ration? It appears the answer to thb- ques tion will determine whether jt not the Republican -c'uiLnjlied congress; will’ return for a session either be-j , tween the two national conventions or after both are over to wind up on legislation neglected prior to the ad journment date. Sen. Robert Tafr. bravely enough, has suggested a session between the Republican convenUoa which is i scheduled to end June 25 and the , Democratic convenfion which starts July 12. However, practical qoliti-1 [cians declare there will not bt time, enough to go through the legisla- < tive routine of passing bills, and,, further, that a large numbnr of I Democrats will b« in Philadelphia’ necessarily a week or more before their convention convenes. And suppose, smart GOP Leaders; point out, the Democrats introduce bills which cover th« Republican 1 plaform? Can the Republicans do otherwise than pass them? I* would put the GOP^ leadership ir> a pre dicament if they refused to pass their platform promises, that is if ! they were made in good faith. On. ^ the other hand., if the Republican leadership went ahead ani passed.; Uts convention platform pledges, it] would be the-first time in Amencani 1 ' political history a party Went to the people with a platform already en acted info law. According to a concensus of opin ion here when the congress recesses J on June 19 it will have completed the work of the 80th congress and will not return after or between the two national conventions. Many members want to get away as soon as possible for needed fence-mending in, their states prior to the election. # * * * # Official Washington is still aghast at the attempt of house Republican leadership to wreck the European Recovery plan even before it gets well under way by the house action of slashing 25 per cent of the appro priations from the measure. If the house leadership had received its or ders direct from Mr. Joe Stalin.it could not have played better into the hands ■ of communists through- McGEE’S DRUG STORE Filling Prescriptions Is A Profession With Us Phone No. 1 BURRISS- HARRISON CO.
