Truman for another term is Rep, Bryan Dorn’s answer to a New York or ganization seeking his backing in its effort to re-elect the president. “We need a leader today who will preserve the basic fundamental freedoms of the American people, a man who will keep alive those principles and ideals which have made America great and the envy of Europe,” Dorn wrote to Jack Ingegnieros, president of the Ital* ian-American Democratic Organi zation of New York. “Mr. Truman does not measure up to such leadership,” Dorn wrote, recommending instead Senatdrs Russell and Byrd and Governor Byrnes. Mr. Ingegnieros wrote that his organization is planning to present eatily this year a portfolio of peti tions from the citizens of the Unit ed [States urging President Truman to run for re-election. He asked for a letter of about 100 words ex plaining why Dorn supported the re-election of Truman. Here is the letter Dorn sent; Dr. Mr. Ingegnieros: “I cannot give you a letter en dorsing the proposed draft of Mr. Truman for a third term as the nominee of our party. The politi cal philosophy and the principles of government advocated by Mr. Truman are foreign to those of the Democratic party of the past cen tury. Mr. Truman’s Fair Deal pol icy more nearly resembles that of the Socialist party than it does the Democratic platform of bygone years. “There are many reasons why I cannot join your movement to draft President Truman as the Demo cratic standard bearer. The fol lowing are only a few: “1. Under Mr. Truman’s leader ship the free world has failed to halt the march of Communism. REAL ESTATE We Buy or Sell. Also Handle Mortgages and Loans.

When Mr. Truman be came president, Russia was devas- Jtated, weakened by war con trolled by 180.000,000 people. To day over 800,000,00(1 people are ,be hind the Iron Curtain. “2. Mr. Truman plunged Amer ica into a bloody war—without the consent of Congress—a war he does not have the courage to win. He has embarked America on a policy of appeasement and endless truce discussions. American youth is be ing destroyed in Korea, with total casualties of nearly 200,000, while Russia’s losses are zero. “. General Douglas MacArthur had long been the No. 1 target of Red Russia and her foremost ob stacle to world conquest. * Presi- <|ient Truman removed .this bulwark across the path of Communism ag- gresion. “4. American economy has been seriously weakened by the lavish pouring of American money over the face of the earth—much of it strengthening Communism. “5.

Mr. Truman, while preach-] ing unity, has created disunity by stirring up clas heftred and sec tional differences. He has failed to achieve unity even in the Demo cratic party. “Mr. Ingegnieros, your people and mine came to America to es cape the very conditions in Europe that Mr. Truman’s administration is now creating here. We need a leader today who will preserve the i basic fundamental freedoms of the American people, a man who will keep alive those principles and iaeals which have made America great and the envy of Europe. Mr. Truman does not measure up to such leadership. Millions came from Europe to the America of Jefferson, Calhoun, Jackson, Cleve land and Wm.
