WASHINGTON, Aug. % -
" The unity Mr.. Truman
established seems fast disap-
pearing from the scene upon
which II was first evident, and
most enectiye-in Congress.
The preliminary peacetime
haggling is evolving into the
same old bitter, uncompromls-
ing and destructive struggle for
control, and the natural back
wash Of such political wars in
times of crisis, elements of un-
certainty and confusion are be-
ginning to appear. 1t may be-
come the New Deal all over
again if II runs the course upon
which il is beginning.
WHAT started it is discern
w ible. The end of the war
brought all the patent remedies
and 'iSms of the New Deal days
out of Pandora's box winging
freely and fiuttering loudly, as
if they had never been defeated
or Gagged. Even the old-age
pension groups (as announced
by CALIFORNIA; Senator Downey.
the Townsend advocated con-
sidered peace the occasion TO
start what is known as "a
drive for its fandang ID
economic ideas.
A social security fight is the
second planned step Of the as
sembling session Hearings next
week. and behind il is the
cooped-up program TO Kill free
enterprise in medicine by social
izing doctors, provide golden
spoons for all mouths from the
cradle to the grave, and such.
But the essence of the re-
developing struggle appears in
stark simplicity in the compara-
tive ways in which the full
employment bill and the Bur-
ton Ball-Hatch bill are being
handled.
The full employment measure
is a labor unions bill requiring
the government 10 furnish jobs
while the Burton Ball Hatch
measure calls for a reasonable
.pro-labor reorganization of the
unpopular Wagner Act system.
The unions bill, under the
leadership of New Dealin &
Chairman Wagner of the bank
ing committee, is being launched
with a promotional campaign.
while the union reform has been
hidden, with trumpets, under
abuse heaped upon it by the
Unions.
1T is TRUE Mr.. Wagners
show did not get off to a
sensational start. The first days
parade of witnesses broke down
with an epidemic of fat tires.
The New Dealers had planned
to get it off to a rouSing start
by having Gen. Omor Bradley,
fresh from victorious fields in
France. promote the idea.
He made it rather plain he
did not know much about the
bill, as he had been at his vet
Grams post only short time.
Advocates from veterans or
CARNATIONS talked most of pro.
noting free enterprise and en-
ployment (rather than unem-
ploymenD althoug h one en-
dorsed the measure.
Ohio's Senator Burton says
his thus-Stymied bill to inject
logic into the Wagner Act has
met a good response from the
rank and file of people, even
in the unions, where many
workers want labor to assume
its responsibilities.
But he and other moderates
have secured no place for them
selves on the congressional
agenda. although they think
something more punitive to the
unions than they want - an
anti-closed shop bill or drastic
labor curtailment measure-will
come unless a moderate reform
course is followed.

WITH deep interest / have
w read every word IN your re-
port on Vivisection. and many
times before I have also read
articles written by other doc
tors as we'll as writers for The
American Weekly
However you do not say what
can be done about prohibiting
these cruelties. Surely il all
the readers, or at least some OF
us could do something l am
quite sure they would.
There are thousands OF peo-
pie like myself who are animal
lovers. and again thousands who
are not, but would be interested
in trying 10 stop this cruelty
on animals who cannot do any,
thing about il. In one of the
articles / have read il said col
lege students are allowed TO
take stray dogs and cats and
cut them up, and for what, /
would like to know.
After reading the last vivi-
section article l wrote the
MAYOR of New York City and
told him just what i thought
should be done about it. What
about that humane society
called Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals" cannot they help in
some way?
Something must be done 10
stop this torture. Why don I
you write another story in this
valuable paper and tell the pub
lie what to do, and we will go
ahead and do it.
Yours very truly.

7 WISH TO add my voice to the
protest against vivisection.
Such practices are cruel in
any case and especially now
when dogs are doing their part
in warfare. They are helping
to win this war as ably as our
soldiers.
God has given life TO animals
as well as humans and nobody
has the right to take il away.
We pride ourselves on being
civilized. but certainly such
cruelty TO these poor dogs
proves the opposite.

one with an ounce Of compass
sion will raise his voice against
the practice of vivisectlon.
