lently attacked the Madison Square
Garden speech, took a different tone
in discussing the now famous letter.
Letter Gave Reasons.
This may have been due to the
fact that the letter made more clear
the basis of Mr.. Wallace's fears and
because 1t was couched in persuasive
rather than antagonistic language.
But I've an idea that it was largely
due to one early paragraph In the
letter. The paragraph read:
"For example, the total recon-
mended Federal appropriations for
the fiscal year 1947 submitted to the
Congress in the official budget
amounted to about $36, 900 900 900.
OF the total budget some $13,OOO,-
600 900 was for the War and Navy
Departments alone. An additional
IS, ,000, 900 900 was for war liquidation
activities. Ten billion dollars repre-
sents interest on the public debt and
veterans benefits, which are pri-
marily the continuing costs of past
wars. These items total $28, 900, 900, =
600, or about 80 per cent Of the total
recompended expenditures.
That is the war cost the taxpayers
will be called on to meet next year
Dire warnings are heard almost
daily from military and naval men
to the effect that this country is
wholly unprepared for war at this
time. They urge that this, that and
the other thing be done to bring us
up to state of real preparedness
all things, Of course, that cost
money. They don't name the enemy
they have in mind but that long
ago ceased to be a secret. 1t is
Russia.
Must Strengthen Position.
Congressman, whom the Presi-
dent can neither muzzle nor ask to
resign. are less guarded in their
war warnings. Five of them, home
after a six-week tour of the Far
East. told the Associated Press that
the United States must strengthen
It's military position in that part of
the world. They are convinced, they
said, OF the urgency of building up
q strong ring of defense, reaching
within striking distance Of Russia. -
That likewise-and it is only one
item Of additional preparedness
would likewise cost money.
There Is 4 question as to whether
We have the money or are willing to
spend 1t. The drive to cut expenses
and reduce taxes has become some
what desperate. Senator Robert A.
Taft, Republican spokesman In the
Senate, speaking to the Republican
State Convention in Ohio last week
devoted much Of his speech to the

! Of the New York City leaders. Mr..
wallace told them the President was
pleased with his New York speech.
It had been announced the speech
would be on foreign policy. Both
politicians were - presumably -
keenly aware OF Mr.. Wallace's deli
cate party position. It was another
red light. But they said that was
Just ducky and went on in to visit
with Harry.
Apparently 1t never occurred to
anybody at the national committee
that Clear 1t with Hannegan" might
be good motto before an election.
Now it can be told that Mr.. Wal
lace's coherts were surprised by
Mr.. Trumans blanket Endorsement.
Naturally they weren't looking
gift horse in the mouth. They dis
tributed copies Thursday noon ac-
cording to custom and went of to
New York for the great moment.
BY that time Thursday. this cor
respondents story that the Presi-
dent was in the curious position of
indorsing views by Mr.. Wallace
which contradicted Mr.. Byrnes. was
being published in afternoon news
papers. The story suggested a cab
met crisis might result.
Truman Calls 1t All Right.
Nobody in Washington registered
except reporters who got the
speech and put it up to Mr.. Tru-
man. He said 1t was all right.
The speech was delivered on
schedule, confusing among others
the Daily Worker, which took a little
time to decide 1t was great. Mr..
Wallace has for some time been
out of favor with the extreme left
and they have been slipping his
halo over to Chester Bowles and
Senator Pepper who don't want it
either.
Mr.. Wallace sat tight during the
storm that followed. His interview
with the President Thursday was
affable. The President said he
wanted him to speak on domestic
issues but that his foreign policy
statements were injuring the Paris
negotiations. Mr.. Truman insisted
he was optimistic about peace with
Russia. The compromise-Mr. WAL
lace not to speak until after the
Paris Conference ended-was arrived
at In the give-and-take and was
apparently acceptable to Mr.. Tru-
man. 1t Is apparently not accep-
table to Mr.. Byrnes.
Mr.. Truman then had no choice.
Mr.. Wallaces counselors say he
viii speak-loud and plenty: They
do not expect him to column or take
q PAC job. They express confidence
he will greatly influence policy. This
is debatable. Mr.. Wallace shrewly
held on to cabinet rank and forced
himself into it because he knew you
can't throw a cabinet member over
your shoulder, as you can a private
citizen.
In the power stakes he Is tenn
pofarfly thrown for 4 loss.

need to reduce taxes II business and
industry is to be saved.
Figures Don't Coincide.
Expenses must be cut to less than
$25, 600, ,000, 900 and taxes correspond
ingly reduced" he said.
This is absurd, to be sure, in the
light Of the $4,000, 900 900 ear
marked for war costs alone, but in
dicates the manner in which much
Of the country is thinking. It indi-
Gates also another absurdity, the
one Mr.. Wallace sought to point out
in his letter, the absurdity of pur-
suing a policy that is likely to pile
up further war costs, If any other
self-respecting' policy can be de-
vised.
Mr.. Wallace, having aroused many
OF his own critics to a consideration
OF this phase of the problem, it
might have been wiser if the Presi-
dent had disregarded any resigna-
ton threat from Byrnes-if there
was one-and devoted himself to
the task, not easy, but not neces-
sarily impossible, of bringing Mr..
Wallace and Mr.. Brynes into line
with one another.
