BY the Associated Press


Gov. Dewey OF New York and
Senator Bilbo, Democrat, of Missis-
sippi achieved a standoff in pledges
today:
l. Dewey has guaranteed there
will be no Bilboism" in New York
while he is governor.
.. Senator Bilbo has promised
there will be no Deweyism in Mis-
sissippi as long as I live"
Gov Dewey made his statement
to an AFL convention at Rochester
Monday.
Replying last night in an inter-
view, Senator Bilbo said:
Deweyism to the people of my
state means FEPC, Negro social
equality, intermarriage between
whites and blacks, hoodlumism
gangsterism, rape and the life OF
some poor Negro, on an average OF
one a night, year-round, snuffed out

As for Gov. Dewey's declaration
that there will be no New York
meetings of the sKu Klux Khan "or
any group like it," Senator Bilbc
commented:
1.-THE Khan has always stood for
the American Flag, Constitutional
Government and the American way
OF life" The Senator said publicly
in a recent radio that he is a Khan
member but has attended no meet
ings for years.
Senator Bilbo dismissed reports
that attempts will be made to deny
him his seat next January as "agita-

PAGES by little mahout way up or
Its back. If the Export-Import Bank
Is to be permitted to make loans OF
gifts abroad, without even submit
ting the items to Congress, why
should not the RFC hand out money
for domestic administrative pur-
poses?
What Kind of Diplomacy?
The Export Import Bank does not
make loans to foreign countries
without the permission of the State
Department, SO it is fair to ask why
the State Department waited until
Congress had adjourned before COM
hitting this assault upon democracy
The State Department had plenty
OF time to ask Congress to sanction
this loan" There was also ample
time to make public the application
for the loan so that the people
might know of it and speak their
minds about it. There can hardly
be any doubt that the State De-
partment thought that if the loan"
were made shortly after Congress
adjourned, the whole episode would
be forgotten when the new Con-
gress meets next January.
Many people have had lot to
say about the secrecy in which
Russia operates. But human nature
is pretty much the same every
where, and unless the public re-
quires full publicity precisely the
same thing can happen here for
which we criticize Russia. Our
officials are willing to lead us in
binders.
And what kind of diplomacy is
our State Department indulging in
these days? 1t seems to be playing
''footy" with King Ibn Saud. Hav-
ing subsidized King Ibn Saud for
some years during the war, while
he was giving us little, If any, aid
against Hitler, we now hand over
to him, without condition, $4,000
900 even though he is at the root
of the difficulties that we and Great
Britain are in with respect to
Palestine.
Secrecy on Subsidies.
In an earlier column I revealed
our subsidies to King Ibn Saud, and
I likewise let the light in on the
dark secrecy in which this loan"
was being negotiated. 1t Is not
beneath the dignity of a country to
get something for its money al
though it is distinctly mira dig to
give money as a price of peace. It
Is not in the American tradition to
pay tribute but the spats-footed
diplomats may find a more saccha-
rine term for a loan" to Saudi
Arabia at a time when, together
with Great Britain, we are in de-
fault on our honor with respect to
Palestine. 1t really affects our ma
tional honor.
II King Ibn Saud never believed
IN Santa Claus before he ought to
now. Perhaps, in our generosity, we
may forego repayment, or even
make another loan" so that the
first one may be paid back.
After all, in this country a man
who earns $50 a week, and who has
a wife and two children, pays SGT
in income taxes a year, so it would
only take years income taxes of
about 10000 such men to produce
SIC, 1000 900 for King Ibn Saud.
