would nearly choke her. She
couldn't lie flat. Had to prop her.

be one of their toughest assign
ments. They, like the Democrats,
are under constant pressure from
constituents for Federal jobs-jobs
that mean votes in the final analy-
sis. The late President Roosevelt,
when he took Office in 1888, began
with a promise to cut Federal ex-
penditures Is per cent. Before a
year was passed, the economy pro-
gram was out the window. Amer
lean politicians do rot understand
how, apparently, to tighten TIE
spending belt. They have found it
invariably unpopular.
In a burst of enthusiasm i'm
mediately after the November elec-
tions, Republican congressional
leaders announced they intended
to reduce personal income taxes
by 20 per cent during the year
1947-and at lie same time balance
the budget. Desirable as are these
detectives, the difficulties which
confront their accomplishment have
already become clear. The mistake
the Republicans made was IN
promising so much so early.
National Defense Question.
Bound up closely with budget
cutting and tax reduction is the
subject of adequate national de-
tense. In turn, national defense Will
be considered in terms of this coun-
try's international relations, Ger
tainly in the minds of many OF the
members of Congress. although the
wise course will be to provide the
needed national defense whether
the international skies are bright
or dark. Some time during the COM
ing year Congress may have TO pass,
too, upon the contributions OF its
armed forces to the peace force OF
the United Nations.

for inclusion of the rest of Germany
in the unified area.
Category B of goods to be i'm
ported comprises raw materials and
the capital goods required to rebuild
Germany's economy. British and
American occupation authorities al
ready hold sufficient German funds
for initial purchases under this
heading. Comprising the proceeds
from German expectation, princi-
pally coal, since the occupation,
these funds total about SIS, 100000
in the American zone, about $780,
100000 due from the British under
a previous arrangement, S45, 100000
with which the, British will match
funds available in the American
zone, and S34,O00,000 of German
funds frozen in Sweden. These
items make a total of S124, 100000
Immediately available.
Private loans through the world
bank rather than government ap-
preparations will provide additional
financing, it is hoped. Private cap
ital, too, must be invited to enter
Germany and if private funds do
not appear the American and Brit
ish Governments must undertake to
finance the program. On this side
of the Atlantic, congressional ap-
propriations will be necessary.
The first will decide what imports
are needed and will put in effect
the rehabilitation program. The
second will be in charge of purchas-
ing and financing. Purchases will
be made wherever materials are
available, either sterling or dollar
areas.
The program has not had any
thing resembling a unanimously
favorable reception. The British are
still apprehensive lest they lose their
dollar credits in purchases from
dollar areas. In the United States
there is a large body of opinion
which opposes this country assuming
the entire burden of feeding both
zones of Germany. especially since
the hope of reimbursement is small
They regard it as reparations in
reverse.
Policy Now Is to Rebuild.
But the opposition does not rest
on this basis alone. American policy
in Germany is being radically re-
versed, for we are no longer destroy
ing German economy-as we were
doing under the Morgenthau plan
but helping to resurrect it. Further
more, success in re-creating German
industry calls for capable techni-
clans and industrial leaders, in
many cases men who might be
caught in denazidcation proceed

of Theodore Roosevelt. Some idea
of the serious manner in which
members of Congress themselves
view this problem is found IN the
fact that Senator Taft Of Ohio has
turned his back on the always
important Senate Finance Com
mittee--which handles all tax and
tariff legislation-and is determined
to take the Craftsmanship Of the
Committee on Labor, which in The
past was not considered anywhere
near the level of the Finance Com
mittee.
Labor Lobby Dominant.
There is no doubt that enough
Republicans and Democrats in botli
houses are in favor of remedial
labor legislation. What President
Trumans attitude toward labor
legislation will be has not been dis
closed. The danger to adequate
labor legislation lies in the fact
that-now the country has been
relieved of the terrible situation
growing out of the recent coal
strike-members of Congress will
become soft. The prospect is for
the greatest labor lobby in history
to stall off legislation aimed at less
ening the present power of organ
lied labor and its leaders will
descend upon the Capitol and the
White House.
OF equal Importance to the econ
omy of the American people--and
to prevent a tremendous and devas-
tating infation-is the subject OF
economy in governmental expendi-
ture. A reduction in expenditures
can be brought about by the liquida-
ton of wartime agencies Of Govern
Iment-some of which still hang on
and a reduction in the number
of civilian employees of the Gov
ernment. The Republicans have
promised to cut and cut expend-
itures until the budget can be
balanced. It promises. however, to

ing committees OF the Senate ana
the House. This is the act which
carried congressional increases in
salary and a pension system for
Senators and Representatives, the
sugar" which made possible the
passage of a law to streamllne
Congress. Salaries of the new Con-
gress will be increased from $4,000
to sl2,5O0, with an additional $2,5O0
for the "expense-" of each member
virtually a $4,000 salary.
The assignment of committee
chairmanships and memberships is
the particular headache of the
Republican Committees on Com
mittees of both houses. Seniority
in point of service, both in Congress
and on committees, must be con-
sidered, and must prevail if the
appointments are not to be hope
iessly involved.
Wrangle Over Cbairmanships.
Bitterness among the Republicans
has developed over some of the
principal Offices in the reorganiza-
ton of the House and Senate. The
speakership will go to Representa-
tive Joe" Martin of Massachusetts,,
who has served as minority leader
through the recent lean years.
While there have been rumblings,
no one has come forward to chal-
lenge Mr.. Martin for this Office.
The majority lea; snip, however
in the House has been the subject
of some bitter wrangling. Repre-
sentative Halleck of Indiana, chair
man of the Republican Congress
sional Committee, is regarded as
certain of election when the Re-
publicans of the new House caucus
Thursday afternoon. Two members
from Ohio, Representative Brown
and Representative jenkins, have
had serious aspirations for the
leadership and another member
from Illinois, Representative Dirk
sen, has cast his hat in the ring.

for the year was as low as in l945.
Whooping cough mortality has con-
tinued low. Scarlet fever Is really no
longer mortality problem in our
country.
Death rates from conditions in
adult life showed no marked
changes. This applies to the chronic
diseases of the heart, arteries and
kidneys, to diabetes and to cancer.
We have reason to be satisfied with
this record because of the continued
increase in the proportion Of older
persons in the population.
The 1916 mortality record was not
without blemish, however. The out
standing bad spot was in violent
deaths, comprising accidents. sui
cides and homicides. There was a
sharp increase in motor vehicle acci-
dents. This, of course, was not
unexpected, because 1946 was the
first complete year in a long time
without restriction on motor travel.
A great part of the motoring public
was compelled to use old cars, some
scarcely fit to drive, and badly worn
tires.
Motor vehicle fatalities in 1916
reached prewar levels, but were sew
eral thousand less than in the peak
year 1941. Other public and home
accidents we're slightly higher than
last year, while accidents in industry
were about as frequent as last year.
There was a heavy loss of life in
major hotel and home fires. The
increase in suicides and In homi-
cides both reflect, to some extent,
postwar unsettlement and perhaps
! also the fact that there are too many
war souvenir firearms around.
Polio Gases More Numerous
Than Any Year Since 'l6
In 1946, for the fourth successive
year, poliomyelitis was unusually
prevalent. In fact, the number Of
cases was the highest for any year
except 1916, and nearly twice that
for l945. They were largely concen-
trated in the Gulf. North Central.
Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast
areas. Fortunately, the proportion
of fatal cases was low and the In
crease in the death rate from the
disease was moderate.
If we may look forward with
satisfaction to generally favorable
developments in the health picture
of the new year, we should, never
theless keep in mind certain indica-
tions of possible trouble. The housing
shortage continues acute and the
enforced crowding in cities and
towns over the land provides condi-
tions that are favorable to the
spread of communicable disease.
The outlook Is not good with
respect to motor vehicle accidents.
Only If the driving public is alert
to the dangers and co-operates fully
with police and traffic authorities
will the number of accidents be
kept down. y
All the other major elements in
the situation look favorable. Al
together, then. the prospects for the
new years health are good and
conducive to period Of high
production and general prosperity.

In the Senate it appears that
Senator White of Maine cannot be
dislodged from the post Of majority
leader, which in a measure he in
herits as the present minority
leader. He also is slated for the
chairmanship of the Committee on
Commerce, and some of his coll
leagues have protested against his
having two such important offices.
Senator Vandenberg OF Michigan
is to be President pro tempore OF the
Senate and chairman of the For
eign Relations Committeeman he
has made it clear he will fight for
both jobs, no matter who raises
an objection. Senator Taft aspires
to retain the Craftsmanship OF the
Republican Steering Committee OF
the Senate as well as taking over
the craftsmanship of the Committee
on Labor.
Spotlight in Upper House.
With a half dozen presidential
"possibilities" on the Republican
side of the Senate chamber-Taft
and Bricker of Ohio, Lodge and
Saltonstall of Massachusetts,, VAN
denberg of Michigan, Baldwin OF
Connecticut and Brewster of Maine
the political spotlight will be
focused constantly on the upper
house.
The Democrats have had to resign
themselves to a recession in power.
They have done it more gracefully,
up to date, than have the Repub-
licans taken their new position OF
control. Senator Barkley of Ken
lucky will continue to be the Demo-
cratic Senate leader and Represen-
tative Mccormack of Massachusetts,
will be the floor leader of his party
in the House. Speaker Rayburn Of
Texas has said, emphatically. he
does not wish to become minority
leader of the House when he steps
out of the Speakers Office. There
have been threats that the Demo-
Gratis would take the minority
leadership from Mccormack. but
they appear to have died away.

Plan in Germany Challenges Soviet

| ingS. There is the 1urLner question
of what to do about those already
under denazifcation penalties. ID
they are freed of prohibitions or
engaging in industrial and economic
pursuits, will the goal of denaziflca-
ton be achieved at all? There is q
real question.
The opposition arises not alone In
Britain and the United States. The
merger of two German zones in a
system of free economy confronts
Russia with a solid western wall to
any further expansion of the Com
munist economic system which she
has instituted in her zone.
Russias dream has been for ulti-
mate control of postwar Germany
reviving the old German dream OF
an alliance of German military and
chronological genius with Russian
manpower and resources. But Rus
sia wanted an economically weak
Germany, politically dependent on
and dominated by the Kremlin. Sue
cess of the British American plan
will make an economically strong
Germany, completely divorced from
Moscow's control.
America Takes Strong Stand.
The first round in the struggle
for Germany went to Russia, as lack
of constructive British and Ameri-
can policies and riffs between the
Allied governments led to hunger
and hopelessness among the Ger
man people 1t was in this period OF
western inaction that Russia was
able to make her greatest gains
politically.
The second round went to Amer
ica, however, in Secretary Brynes'
Stuttgart speech, which promised an
early end to postwar penalties on
the German people, and served
notice on Russia that Germany's
eastern border was still to be fixed.
The third round is now being
fought, with American-British VIC
tory resting on the success OF the
economic merger. This is the flrst
concrete plan to be put forward by
which the Germans can work their
way back to normal living and a
respectable place in the common
wealth of nations.
More than Germany is at stake,
of course. Restoration of Western
Germany's industry must come be-
fore Western Europe enjoys full eco
nomic recovery. And on Western
Europe much of world prosperity
depends The United States and
Britain have thus taken long step
toward the revival of world eco
nomic health, and on this iounda-
ton the future can be faced to pro-
vide economic preventatives for fu-
ture war.
