WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS
Truman Asserts Red Aims Split
As Some Leaders Desire Accord;
Dutch Firm on Indonesian Stand
Taft Laughed
Usually pontifically serious.
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio was
in an expansive mood as he chat
ted with newsmen on his return
to Washington following: a tour
of Europe. He praised the opera
tion of the economic cooperation
administration (Marshall plan).
(EDITORS NOTE: When opinions pro expressed in these colnmns, they are those of
Western Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily af this newspaper.)
COLD WAR:
Someone Tiring
If Harry S. Truman were right,
then possibility of war with Russia
was less than many Americans
imagined. In a “surprise” state
ment during an unheralded ap
pearance at a luncheon in Kansas
City, President Truman declared
bluntly that “certain leaders” in
Russia “are exceedingly anxious
to reacti an agreement with the
United States to end the cold war.”
THEN THE PRESIDENT lashed
out with an accusation that the
Soviets have violated "sacred”
agreements and said their govern
ment “has a system of morals
that are not moral.”
Deliberately or not. President
Truman was baring some closeted
secrets when he said during that
speech that the Russians had not
kept importantr-agreements made
at Yalta and Potsdam. By that
statement, the President was con
ceding charges of long duration
that certain commitments were
made at these two parleys with
the Russians which were not gen
erally known, and results of which
led to accusations that American
diplomacy had failed miserably in
negotiations with Russia's Josef
Stalin.
The President’s position was far
from an earlier expansive state
ment that Stalin was a “nice old
fellow.”
HE DID NOT IDENTIFY the
Red leaders who prefer an “under
standing”—as he put it—with the
United States, but he asserted
that there are Soviet top men who
have no desire for war. Neither
did the President say whether any
overtures had been made by such
Russian leaders.
The President said frankly: "I
made certain specific agreements
at Potsdam, none of which have
been kept. Certain agreements
were made at Yalta, none of which
have been kept.”
He reiterated that “all the
United States wants is peace.”
INDONESIA:
Dutch Stubborn
Stubbornness is a characteristic
trait ot the Dutch—and Holland
was running true to form. Despite
announcement by the United
States, from which she is receiving
Marshall plan aid, that the inva
sion of Indonesia must stop, the
Dutch said, in effect, they’d think
the order over.
THE UNITED NATIONS was
concerned, but a Russian step to
the fore in demanding a cease
fire order and troop withdrawal in
24 hours did the Indonesians no
good. This time, the U. S. ab
stained from voting and the Rus
sian proposal lost.
However, the American position
was difficult of understanding, and
the-statement of American delegate
Philip Jessup did little to clarify it.
“I decline to be put in a false
position by other delegations," he
said. “Ths record of the United
States on Indonesia is before the
world.”
BUT ALSO BEFORE the world
was the issue of American prestige
and the integrity of the Marshall
plan. America stood for help for
Indonesia; America controlled the
powerful weapon of economic aid
to the Dutch. Yet, America, as yet,
had delivered no ultimatum to the
nation whose foray into Indonesia
was being helped by American
dollars. And the American dele
gate had declined to vote for a
cease-fire order in the Indonesian
fighting—joining Great Britain in
the vote declination.
Whatever else was true, and re
gardless of motives, the assertion
of the Soviet Ukranian delegate
appeared to be true. He charged:
“Without United States financial
help, the Netherlands would have
been unable to wage war in In
donesia.”
Operation ‘Tactful’
Sociology was looking up. The
Australian Legion of Ex-Service
men and Women had taken up the
task of helping young veterans am}
their wives with “in-law” troubles.
They started a scheme to enable
veterans forced by bousing short
ages to live with parents-in-law
to exchange homes with others.
Spokesmen for the legion said
many English marriages had been
saved from disaster by a similar
scheme operating in Britain. They
'found couples could live happier
with strangers where they were
paying guests.
FOR CHINA:
Watch and Wait
U. S. policy on China, for the
time being at least, appeared to
be one of watching and waiting,
coupled with a resounding diplo
matic silence.
America had two good consid
erations upon which to base that
policy:
1. THE UNITED STATES stood
convinced that nothing other than
direct intervention in the military
situation in China would change the
course of events, and that the gov
ernment is not prepared to inter
vene to that extent.
2. There is, in the United States,
an inaccurate assumption that
American, economic aid is a fool
proof solution to the difficulties of
other countries; that this aid, if
put into a given country as raw
materials are put into a machine,
would suddenly be processed into
an effective, finished product. Life
was not precisely like that—es
pecially in China.
To all of which might be added
these two additional factors:
1. The United States was caught
in this dilemma: If it issues a
statement supporting the National
ists, as Mme. Chiang Kai-shek
urged, it might merely associate
itself with the collapse of the pres
ent Chinese regime without pre
venting that collapse.
2. On the other hand, if it ex
plains why it is not granting
further aid to Chiang, and pub
lishes what has happened to previ
ous aid, it might hasten Chiang’s
collapse.
Hence, the attitude of watchful
waiting.
MARSHALL:
How Long?
The question of who would be
President Truman’s secretary of
state was concerning official Wash
ington and the diplomatic centers
of the world.
Ailing Gen. George C. Marshall
was ordered to rest, observe strict
dietary instructions. Evidence was
largely at hand that the President
was reluctant to trust the touchy
problems of international policy in
less experienced hands, yet' the
chief problem persisted: Could
Marshall carry on effectively de
spite his serious ailment—loss of a
kidney through operation?
THE PRESIDENT appeared
committed to a policy of letting
Marshall stay on, or, rather,
keeping Marshall on the job de
spite any desire of the latter to
give up his post.
A close associate of th» Presi
dent was quoted as saying the
chief executive was willing, to wait
until Marshall recovered sufficient
ly to do a full-time job, even if
that should require months. Rob
ert A. Lovett, said not to “gee" as
well with the President as Mar
shall did,* would continue to act
for Marshall while the latter rest
ed.
SOME OF THE President’s
friends declared that if he should
finally decide that Marshall can’t
carry the load, he probably would
like to have Chief Justice Fred
Vinson take over.
To do so would mean a great
personal sacriAce for the Kentuck
ian, for his position on the court is
permanent, while an administra
tion change might leave him out
in the cold—and Vinson is no young
man, either.
ALL MUST PROVE STATUS
Army Checking Newcomers for Red Taint
The army is looking closely to
the political integrity of its induc
tees and applicants for commis
sions. Army spokesmen have re
leased an announcement that ex
isting regulations now require all
inductees and applicants for com
missions to certify whether they
have been members of subversive
organisations. If they bad been
such members they are barred
from service.
The affidavit requires enlistees
or officer applicants to state
whether they have membership in
any organization advocating over
throw of the government.
Draftees also are required to
sign such affidavits when they ap
pear for induction.
PROBERS:
Want More Law
Probers looking officially into
the activity of foreign espionage
agents in the United States were
becoming irked. Too many wit
nesses had fallen back on the con
stitutional guarantee of immunity
to questioning by claiming the pos
sibility of self-incrimination.
The probe group would put an
end to that—they would provide
stiffer penalties for contempt of
such groups.
REPRESENTATIVE MUNDT, of
South Dakota, and Nixon, of Cali
fornia, Republicans, authors of the
proposal, did not specify just how
much stiffer they would make the
penalty for persons convicted of
contempt of congress. They did
comment that “offenders should
be severely and appropriately
punished.”
Existing law provides a maxi
mum penalty of one year’s impris
onment and a $1,000 fine.
Among “reforms” suggested for
probe group procedure was pro
tection of the right of all witnesses
to counsel in both closed and open
session; right of the accused to
testify in open session; right of
the accused to submit questions.
The new congress was to be giv
en the proposals.
MEDICINE:
U. S. on Pan
Plans for socialized medicine re
ceived a rough setback when the
Hoover committee reported it had
found “waste and extravagance”
in the present federal setup, which
it described as without “any cen
tral plan.”
FINDINGS of the committee—a
“task force” of the Hoover com
mission on organization of the ex
ecutive branch of the government
—were sure to be hailed with de
light by members of the American
Medical association battling
against enactment by congress of
a program of socialized medicine.
The investigating group, how
ever, made it plain in its report
that compulsory health insurance
was outside the scope of its inquiry.
But, even so, its declaration that
governmental medical agencies
and its program were inadequate
and inefficient was certain to be
construed as whistling over two
strikes on the compulsory health
insurance adherents. /
THE FACT-FINDING group rec
ommended a sweeping reorganiza
tion of federal medical services,
and urged channeling of federal
subsidies to the upbuilding of med
ical schools and community and
private hospitals, with a minimum
of supervision by the government.
The report asserted the govern
ment is assuming uncalculated ob
ligations without any understand
ing of their ultimate cost, the lack
of professional manpower to carry
them out, or their adverse effect
on the hospital system of the
country.
BEST COWBOY:
No Film Star
The small fry could bellow and
complain all they liked—the best
cowboy was not Gene Autry or
Roy Rogers.
Instead he is Gerald Roberts,
Phoenix, Ariz., who was top cow
boy—world’s champion, to get tech
nical—for 1948. The Rodeo Cow
boys association announced Rob
erts was the best all-’round cow
boy of the year, and they had the
records to prove it.
ROBERTS won top honors by
leading the 2,100 professional cow
boys who were scored in the asso
ciation’s system for 57a rodeos i«
the U. S. and Canada.
The scoring system was based
on one of the most impressive fac
tors in any American competition
—the dollar. One point was scored
for each dollar won in competition,
and Roberts ended the 1948 season
with winnings of $21,866 in cash
awards. There was no arguing with
that sort of record.
Prodigal's Return
Many Wild Weeds
Provide Ample Food
In Dire Emergencies
ORLANDO, FLA. — So far as
Nibokawa, the Wise Woodsman, is
i concerned, you can forget the high
price of food in Florida—if you
want to go back to nature.
Nibokawa is the name the In
dians give naturalist and educator
Oliver Perry Medsger, 78, whose
writings, teachings and studies have
made him nationally kpown among
scientists.
One of his books is "Edible Wild
Plants” and from it you learn that
many weeds you thought only a nui
sance can save you from starving.
The May apple he recommends
highly.
It isn’t a fruit or flower, leaf or
root. It’s just a growth found on
the wild honeysuckle and yet
Medsger says it is delicious raw or
in salad, spiced or pickled.
'I here are the wild sweet potato;
nut grass; and fruits of the culti
vated palms But he disco.'rgges
use of the excellent palmetto bud
because it kills the tree.
He says young bracken shoots
can bs cooked and dressed like
asparagus, as can the tender shoots
of pokeweed, chickweed, sorre^and
milkweed.
The milkweed, he says, is another
all-purpose edible. Its shoots can be
used for greens, the unripe pods
eaten like okra, and a coarse brown
sugar may be made from the
Bowers.
Medsger says the Indians would
have died without arrowroot which
is common in the swamps. He
also names a wide variety of wild
Iruits and berries and says:
“If worst comes to worst, we can
always eat grass. All the grasses
are perfectly wholesome and nutri
tious.”
Brown Thrush Has Narrow
Escapes in Noisy City
ATLANTA, GA.—City life was
just too much for this unhappy,
confused brown thrush.
The bird got caught in a whirl
of traffic on busy Forsyth street.
Fluttering under automobiles
and trolleys, it caused a traffic
jam. Horns blared and tires
screamed.
Cheating death by inches, the
bird finally reached the side
walk. Dignified businessmen
skittered about trying to catch
the elusive thrush in their hats.
It darted into a hotel lobby,
avoiding capture until it dropped
from exhaustion. \
Its captor put the bird in a box
and said that he would take it
back to the country.
Reporter in Russ Garb
Tests Army’s Security
ALISO CANYON, CALIF. — A
self-styled Russian army colonel
seized as he watched maneuvers of
United States naval and marine
units, was identified as a reporter
planted by his newspaper "to test”
security precautions at the war
games.
The San Diego Journal said the
man, who first identified himself to
military police as a Russian army
officer, was John d’Alfonso.
Brig. Gen. Omar T. Pfieffer, chief
of staff of the Camp Pendleton
marine barracks, said the reporter
would be turned over to the FBI
because he had no credentials and
was wearing the uniform of a for
eign government.
Wearing a Russian uniform rent
ed from a costume shop, D’Alfonso
was picked up as he watched the
large-scale maneuvers from a can
yon side reserved lor civilian spec
tators.

baseman of the Philadelphia A’s

WOMEN:
Fewer Home
Fewer American married women
were staying at home. In a com
plete reversal of the war years,
married women workers in the na
tion topped single women holding
jobs.
A report by the federal census
bureau showed that there were in
the labor force—those working and
looking for work—about 8,300,000
married women and 5,900,000 single
women.
Podunk—Yes, There Is Such
A Town—Wants Recognition
PODUNK, MASS. — Residents of
Podunk have determined to let the
world know that there really is such
a community and that it is a nice
place to live and has modem im
provements.
Because lexicographers have ig
nored Podunk and newspaper men
have bandied the name about in a
Jocular manner, folks here have de
cided to speak up.
President Robert S. Wakeman, of
the Podunk community club, report
ed that plans were being made to
invite lexicographers and newspa
permen to a sightseeing tour and a
dinner.
They’ll have to travel five miles
south of East Brookfield among the
wooded Worcester county hills.
Bathtubs Are on Way Oat
tAs Showers Gain Popularity v
CLEVELAND. — The sit-and-soak
method of bathing is slowly join
ing the old wooden tub in trout of
the kitchen stove as a thing of the
past, a survey of observers on the
postwar bathing scene shows.
Blame it on the war, they said.
The tub is going down the drain
to make way for the shower.
‘During the war, people got ac
customed to taking showers,”
Charles Jauch, secretary ot the
Cleveland Builders Exchange, said.
“There were no tubs on dread-
naughts or in barracks for the men
in service. Priorities made it diffi
cult for civilians to get tubs.
"People learned to prefer the
speed and efficiency of showers.”
