OrpaniZatiOn.

He had planned the Dewey dominated national committee could take oyer the en- tire control of the party and begin laylng the groundwork for a great Republican victory in the l946 congressional elections. Instead, Republican Congressional leaders, headed by Joe Martin of Massachusetts and Charlie Hal leck of Indiana, advised that House RepubllceIls were ill no mood to be trilled with, suggest ed that it would be better to let them have their head for awhile
 Most significant decision reached by BrOwnell during his visit was the agreement he gave COP leaders that he would continue as Republican national chairman after the Indianapolis meeting Jan. 20. BrOwnelI had planned to step out at that time and was not too concerned over who would succeed him. Then he began a quiet survey of sentiment among party lead CTS, found the organization bad Iy split, but with many feeling that he Is the one man they could most agree on.
 Brownell rejected suggestions that he assume the post on full time paid basis, told Halleck and Martin that an unpaid officer had greater independence, therefore could do better job.
 Next important result of BrOwncll's Washington discus siOns was that the Indianapolis meeting would be no place for an aIl-Out battle on COP policy. BrOwneII talked this over with Martin, HaIleck. Rep. Roy Wood ruff of Michigan, senators White of Maine. Vandenberg of Michi- gan, Taft of Ohio and Wherry of Nebraska.
 All agreed it would be more sensible to steamroller the Indian apolis meeting into One-day ai- fair, with little discussion of na- tional COP policy on important issues. Indianapolis, therefore, will concentrate on adopting q mechanical program pointed toward winning the l946 elections. BroWnell agreed to expand the national committees staff at once, adding a group of paid liaison men to bring harmony between the na- tional committee and members ol Congress.
 DEMOCRATIC COP
 COOPERATION???
 Chairman BroWne.l also made one significant proposal when caused quite a Dit of debate at hls hllsh-hush meeting with COP blgWigs,
 "This coalition business" BTOwnell told Republican legis- IatOrs, "wheFe we join up with the southern Democrats on ceT' tain legislation may be all right, hut it isn't what the voters have q right tO expect from ns. think we need q Legislative pFO- gram of our own that we can stand or fall On. We should in' tTOduee 0HT own bills and fight hard for them, q We lose, we can accuse the Democrats or OhstFueti0niSm instead of hay ing them make the accusation against us,'
 hhFewd Indiana Congressman Charlie IIalleCk was inclined Co go along, but found himself ops posed by House Minority Lead eF JOe Martin
 "lIPFb, [ don't think OnT boys up in the IIOuse will agree with
 yOu On that" Martin said, "They'Fe pretty angry. We have heen 0ul Of office 10 long that they like Co take sock at the President any time they get a chance"

BOOK LOVERS

I
When it comes to telling a good
story, G. s. Forester has very few
rivals. His latest is Commodore
Hornblower, the Book of the
Month Club selection for June. This
continues the adventures of Mr. For
ester's doughty sea-dog hero, which
he related previously in his trilogy,
Captain Horatio Hornblower," also
Club selection.
Horatio Hornblower h on the
verge of retirement. as squire of a
fine country estate. when his new
book commences. He has beauti-
full wife, child, wealth and fame
But that is not enough. He has
never been so miserable as when,
dressed in his new tight fitting
civilian clothes. he has to greet
the tenants who have come to well
come him. Then a letter from the
Admiralty, offering him immediate
employment as Commodore, abrup-
thy rescues him from a landlubber's
fate.
At this period of history Napoleon
had reached his climax, but no one
as yet recognized that. Prussia had
been overrtln. the status of Russia
and Sweden was uncertain; Riga
was about to be attacked. And In
the midst of all of this, it is Horn
blowers assignment to take q small
task fleet into the Baltic.
Every act of that fleet Is as i'm
portant in diplomacy as a battle.
1t Is England's prestige in the North;
it is visible pressure upon Russia
and Sweden to take sides If Ma
poleon does not invade Russia, it
may be cauht in a trap. If he
does. this English fleet must show
by its deeds the power that will
keep the Gar from making a nego-
tiated peace. Well, it did: and what
those deeds we're makes up the
story of this exciting book.
Like two other English authors
tSomerset Vaughan and A. j. Gro
nin), C. s. Forester studied to be
a doctor in his youth q. He aban-
doned medicine to write poetry !. .
His first big success in America
was Payment Deferred" a novel
about the disintegration of the mind
of q murderer, which was made
into both a play and a movie :.
Another of his books, THE General"
an acid portrait of a brass hat,
sold widely In Germany because
Hitler. who missed the satire, re.
garded 1t as a supreme dedication
Of the militaristic spirit Forester
lives now In Berkeley. California.
In recent months he has sailed
several times with the q. 3. Navy
and has written several articles on
the war In the Pacific It was
on one Of these voyages that Com
modore Hornblower" was begun.
