6. 0.P. Fight Forecast
Over Phrasing Of
Peace Plank
Party Leaders Split;
Speculation Rises Over
Stussen's Address

Prominent Republicans forecast to-
day that their Platform Committee
would have its greatest battle over
phrasing "keep-out-of-war" plank.
After a series of talks with Gov.
Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota, the
convention keynoter, party leaders
here disclosed a difference of opin-
ion over the precise position which
Republicans should take on foreign
policy.
They generally agreed the party
should promise to keep the United
States at peace, but they were split
over the best methods of accom-
plishing that goal.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
Of Michigan and others were re-
ported to want strict "mind-our-
own-business" declaration in the
platform, while Senator Austin, Re-
publican, of Vermont and some fell
low Republicans were said to be-
lieve the United States should give
what aid it could to the allies with
out itself becoming involved in the
GulOptdll Wal.
Speculation on Address.
Republican platform talk was
interviewer with discussions of Gov.
Stassen's address to the Repub-
lican convention at Philadelphia,
which opens June "a.
1t generally was agreed that Gov.
Stassen would offer no specific for
eign policy, leaving that question to
the Platform Committee. He was
advised by party leaders in Con-
gress, however, to emphasize the
idea that Republicans were deter
mined to prevent American involve
ment in foreign wars.
The tall, 33-year-old Governor, it
was reported, plans to make these
declarations in a 45-minute keynote
address:
That the administration recip-
rocal trade program should be re-
pealed or trade agreements should
be subject to Senate ratification.
That relief should be adequate to
prevent suffering, but that admins
tration should be turned over to
States and localities.
Balanced Budget.
That Democrats have been ex-
travagant with public funds and
that Republicans propose a return
to balanced budget.
That key New Deal social pro-
grams should be retained and per-
fected. Some change should be
made in the Wagner Labor Rela-
tions Act, perhaps along the lines
suggested by the A. F.. L.
That farm benefit payments
should be disbursed on the basis
OF cooperation with a broad soil
conservation program and that
two-price system should be insti-
tuted. Under the latter the farmer
would receive higher price for that
portion of his crop consumed do
mestically than the part sold abroad
at world prices.

Parliamentary circles said the
Laborites also agreed that a secret
session of Parliament to hear a

wise at this juncture because the

clusion"
Mr.. Chamberlain told Commons
today, Il do not think it would be

statement as to measures adopted by
Britain in Norway.
Later he said he desired to make
statement on the Norwegian cam

she says, though l haven't a ten
thousand-d dollar chef in the kitchen:

Mrs. Pollock explains her facility
for cooking as the result of several
things First there was her actor
playwright epicure father who devel-
oped in her what she calls tooth
for good food. Then there was her
reading of Little Women" where the
girls had toy stove that would really
cook and that was the envy of her
childish heart.
There was also the example and
tradition of her grandmother. who was
a noted cook in Chicago and whom
the famous theatrical Booths knew
and loved. Mrs. Pollock cherishes
many letters they wrote to her grand
mother, all of them mentioning with
homesick longing one dish or another
they had eaten at her house. Finally
there was friend Of the young Mrs.

give dinners for which she did all the

But-the author wrote a scene in
which the hero takes a bath in
Raleigh tavern, at Williamsburg,

was not brought to America until
several years after the story takes

anything in bathtub styles current
