secure the sacrifices Of the dead.

cation, and Rabbi Walter Plant, the
benediction.

unaware that Mr.. Pew included the
Republican Pennsylvania congress
ional delegation among his many
chattels.
The Importance of a Dewey floor
leader in the House cannot be mini
mized. Mr.. Dewey needs to gain
public acclaim in order to secure
the nomination for President. This
is clear. Accordingly, he must build
himself up in the eyes of the people,
and, what is just as important, he
must depreciate the campaigns OF
other Republican possibilities ac-
tual or potential.
Since most of these other Repub-
lican aspirants-Mr. Taft, Mr.. Van
denberg, Mr.. Bricker, Mr.. Salton-
stall, Mr.. Brewster-are members of
the Senate, and therefore untouch-
able, about all that can be done is
to sabotage any program that any
one of them may happen to wangle
through the Senate. And what bet
ter place to stick a knife in such a
program than a House whose floor
leadership is in the hands of a
Dewey front?
The people expect the 80th Con-
gress to legislate for the Nation.
They did not elect it for the pur-
pore of nominating President.

fessional "true liberals on current
labor issues, he has advanced him.
self in the general regard and at
least partially shaken of a stigma.
BY relinquishing to them the true
liberalism" lingo, he can wholly
shake it off.
The nonsense of the "true liberal
ism" phraseology was never better
illustrated than during recent
Stassen press conference, when a
realistic reporter pressed him for a
definition of true liberalism" After
some hesitation, Mr.. Stassen replied
that true liberalism" is philos-
ophy of life which seeks the maxi
mum freedom - social, economic,
political and religious-for the in
dividual man and woman, consistent
with the enjoyment of the same
degree of freedom by his fellow man.
To this platitudinous pronounce
ment it is quite sure Senator Robert
Taft, whom the professional true
liberals" regularly and unjustly pic
ture as a reactionary Old Guards
man, would heartily subscribe.
AS a matter of fact, who would
not-except, perhaps, those true
liberals" whose aim is to promote
economic chaos by insisting on
unequal privileges for a special
class. 1t would be to Mr.. Stassen's
political advantage-tand very graft
flying to many of his friends-if he
would cut all ties with this repudi-
ated and entirely phony group OF
political pretenders. He went long
way toward doing so in his latest
statement. He could make the job
satisfyingly complete if he would
stop talking their ridiculous Ian
guage.
Mr.. Stassen, who would make a
very good President, should cast
aside these shoddy adjectives; let
the facts and his own views speak
for themselves. They are good
enough,

flower of Indiana Republicanism-
for whom big money and big busi-
ness have the same attraction that
they had for the late Harry l.. Hop
kins. The fight is already hot one
BY some fast footwork by the Dewey
forces, Mr.. Halleck was seeded in
the Republican Congressional Com
mittee as chairman of the Finance
Committee.
In the ordinary course Of events
congressman apply to this commit
tee for campaign funds and usually
they get whatever may be available
with no strings attached. In the
past, they have felt that they owed
their allegiance to the party and not
to any particular man.
Votes Are Being Solicited.
However, when Mr.. Halleck was
in command of the Finance Com
mittee things were different. Re-
gardless of the source OF the Re-
publican money, whether 1t came
from avowed Deweyites or from
those opposed to the spic-and-span
candidate, Mr.. Halleck and his
friends made a point Of letting each
congressional candidate who got any
substantial amount of money from
the committee know that he was in
debted personally to Mr.. Halleck
who, so eagerly, wants to atone to
Mr.. Dewey for his temporary aber-
ration when he was supporter OF
the late Wendell Willkie.
Now, Mr.. Halleck and the Dewey
cohorts are already demanding pay
ment from those congressman VINO
received funds from the committee
These men are being told that, in
gratitude. they should vote for Mr.
Halleck for the House floor leader
ship when the Republican repre-
sentatives meet on January 2. Ger
tainly a great many of those who
contributed to the Republican Con-
gressional Committee had no desire
to further the interests either OF
Mr.. Halleck or of MIR. Dewey.
Furthermore, the pressures that
are being brought to bear have
given many a congressman the fear
that, unless he votes right" on the
floor, leadership, he will be "purged'
whenever possible, or at least strick-
en- from the list Of those to be
favored with good committee as
signments or with funds in the next
campaign.
Mr.. Halleck, of course, denies that
he Is fronting for the Dewey ma
chine. The fact that he has the
votes of the New York Republican
delegation in his pocket, he attempts
to explain as mere coincidence. u
One could hardly expect bigger or
better coincidence" to occur
Among those who are assisting in
Mr.. Dewey's political tour de force
in addition to Mr.. Halleck, is Joseph
N. Pew, the Pennsylvania Repub-
lican leader who hops about on one
foot, while keeping the other in his
mouth. Mr.. Pew has instructed the
% Republican congressman from his
State that they are to cast their
ballots for Mr.. Halleck. This has
occasioned some eyebrow lifting

create the feeling that this is the
element to which he made primary
appeal and whose support he most
earnestly sought.
Also, this being the group most
Thoroughly repudiated by the
country in the last election, the
more solid of Mr.. Stassen's friends
naturally have been somewhat dis
turbed over the spread of that idea
for which, they contend, there Is nc
real basis.
1t is interesting to note that In
his most recent utterances Mr.
Stassen very effectively made this
plain. 1t is true he again harped
upon the words which, meaningless
as they have become, seem to have
an irresistible allure for him. How
ever, he made it completely clear he
has no alliance with the profess
sional liberals" does not seek such
an alliance, is not in accord with
their present plans and is not afraid
to say so, which is very encourag-
ing, indeed.
Mr.. Stassen conveyed all this by
an emphatic expression of disap-
provaI of the labor plans which are
aimed at another wave of great
strikes. He warned against this; ex-
pressed the view that q general
wage increase in the next six
months would be injurious to the
workingman; declared that, If in
stead of striking, labor kept steadily
at work production would go up,
prices of food and clothing would
go down and this would mean a
real increase in wages.
Stassen Hits Nathan Reports.
Now, this is not the doctrine OF
the professional 1iberals-it is the
exact reverse of that doctrine. And
Mr.. Stassen followed with a scath-
ing indictment of the so-called
Nathan report, upon which the CIC
is basing its campaign to bring
about exactly the things of which
Mr.. Stassen warned. The gist of
this report Is that wages could
easily be raised "a per cent without
raising prices.
Mr.. Stassen not only denounced
the foundation and the argument
of this report, but said that "even
It's simple arithmetic" was wrong.
The true liberals" of the Murray,
Reuther, Wallace, Pepper type did
not relish that indictment, but a
lot of other people did. 1t by no
means makes Mr.. Stassen unfriendly
to labor, but it has enhanced his
general stature in the country as
q man of sense, fairness, judgment
and courage.
In effect, it places him against the
closed shop, which already has been
opposed by his Minnesota friend,
Senator Ball. And it puts him in
practically full opposition to the
CIO campaign, recently announced
by the unctuous Mr.. Murray and his
truculent young aide, Mr.. Reuther.
It also lines him up against such
advocates of the true liberalism"
as Mr.. Wallace's New Republic, the
Nation, the Daily Worker and the
CIO senatorial stooges.
None of these makes any pretense
Of liking the Stassen stand, and SO
clear is the cleavage that it becomes
the height of absurdity for both to
call themselves true liberals" Per-
haps, after considering the facts,
MIR. Stassen will conclude that re-
petition of those words as descrip-
tive of himself has become ridicu-
lous and in his next utterance will
either drop them altogether - or
gradually.

that in the last decade the word
