Vote Orderly
in

.BUENOS AIRES -AP- Oppos-
ing political leaders expressed sat
lsfaction today with the orderly
conduct OF yesterdays presiden-
tial elections and indicated they
would regard the outcome as a
true expression Of the will OF the
Argentine people.
Both sides voiced confidence OF
victory. but II appeared that II
might be 80 or 40 days before Ar
gentina learns whether her next
president will be Col. Juan d. Peron,
iron man" candidate OF the Labor
party. or Jose p. Tamborini, rep
resenting the Democratic Union.
Under Argentine law all ballot
boxes must be transported to prov
incial capitals for .tabulation OF the
vote. Because OF the distances
involved, poor transportation and
the time required 10 count the pa
per ballots, an early indication Of
the outcome is unlikely-barring
a veritable landslide.

Reds Looking
to l948 Vote;
Seek Recruits

Washington, Feb. 25-UP-Amer-
ican Communist leaders are calling
today for a left wing recruiting
drive looking to third party move
ment In the 194S presidential elec.
tions.
Party Secretary William Z. Fos-
ter has passed the word that the
difficult political and economic
problems in the United States" pro-
vide an opportunity for a recruit.
ing drive which will greatly in
crease the number OF his follow
ers. The Communists are looking
to labor unions and the farms for
their recruits.
They are depending on the Po-
lltical Action Committee machin.
cry set up by the Congress OF In
dustrial Organizations 10 give their
third party plans a big boost to-
ward reality. The program was
discussed in detail at closed meet
ing Of the Communist party which
took place in midFebruary in New
York City. The plans were re-
vealed publicly yesterday in THE
Worker, the Sunday edition Of
the Communist newspaper organ
which is published in New York.
The membership campaign OBJ
jectiye is stated as:
Building mass Communist
party entrenched in the key indus
tries and shops as the indispens-
able instrument of the working
class In defeating the reactionary
drive of American Imperialism at
home and abroad"
The program means a gradual
break with the Truman administra-
ton which inherited the support
Of American Communists from the
late President Roosevelt. MIR.
Roosevelt repudiated American
Communists in his 1910 and 1914
campaigns. But they remained,
nevertheless, as active and in
some cases extremely powerful fac
tors in the left wing of the New
Deal-Democratic coalition which
he commanded.
AS OF now the Communist do
mestic program is substantially
parallel with Mr.. Truman's policies
although he often is bitterly de.
nounced for failure TO go as far
as Foster and his ad Iers desire.
But the break is wide open on for
eign policy. American Commun.
lists take their basic party line from
Generalissimo Josef V. Stain who
earlier this month laid the blame
for World War II on monopoly
capt., lism". which is the Russian
name for private enterprise.
With that in mind. the Commun-
list committee voted for a mass par
ty organization for the mass strug-
gle. the ultimate objective OF which
is stated TO be the naturalization
OF all United States industry. The
recruiting campaign is the first
step in this program, THE Work
ers" explain.

Farm Bloc
School
Lunch

Washington, Feb. 25-AP-The
potent Senate farm bloc lined up
today behind a s115, 200, ,O0O-a-year
federal school lunch program, more
than double the amount voted by
the House last week.
Senators Ellender (D-La) and
Russell (D-Ga.) said they will seek
action tomorrow on a measure al
ready approved by the Senate agri-
culture committee.
They and Senators Bankhead ID
Ala.). Aiken (R-VT). and Thomas
(D-Okla) told newsmen there is
no doubt about Senate approval al.
though there may be some opposi.
tion from economy advocates.
Senator Taft (R-Ohio) told a re-
porter he may oppose the school
lunch authorization because I'm
against 1t in principle. ut is a
program to provide lunches for ey.
eryone. rich or poor. whether need
ed or not"
But AIKEN, anOther hepuDllcani
said in an interview:
"A lot OF senators regarded the
federal school lunch program as
communistic when II first started
in 1885. It's proved such a sue
cess that it's not even pink now"
The Senate measure would au-
thorize S100,000,O0O annually for
food buying. or this the Secretary
OF Agriculture could use some $685.
100000 to. buy surplus foods; the
balance would he matched by
states on a dollar for dollar basis
for the first five years.
After five years the state share
would increase to $3.50 for each
federal dollar and at the end OF 10
years the states would supply 50
for each Treasury dollar.
Another $l5,000,000 would be au.
thorized annually for nutritional
edcation or facilities needed for
the lunch program.

accused today OF deliberately fos.
tering big four disunity in an sp-
parent effort TO create a three.
power western bloc against Russia.
Russell A. Nixon. former Off
cial OF the American military gov
ernment in Germany. told Senate
subcommittee that this trend was
evident in the fact that the Unit
ed States. Britain and France had
squeezed Russia out of the allied
hnnt for German assets in neutral
countries.
IL Russia we're allowed TO Join
in. Nixon said. II would lay bare
the Fascist or reactionary regimes
in countries such as Spain, Portu
gal, Switzerland. Sweden and Ar
gentina and would reveal all the
elements of collaboration of certain
interests in the allied countries with
these regimes"
This unwarranted and dillgent
effort to disunify the four powers,
he said. leads to a profound sus'
picion that II is being sought by
at least some forces in the L. S.
State Department and in the Brit
fish and French foreign offices
who are sympathetic TO the cres.

inent Republicans both in and out
OF Congress were mentioned today
as possible successors to Herbert
Brownell, Jr., as chairman Of the
Republican national COMMITTEES.
COP sources reported that Brow
nell. who took over the chairmsn-
ship at the party's 1894 national
convention at Chicago. had re-
signed effective April I. He was
understood TO be anxious to devote
more time to his law practice In
New York.
Republican leaders IN Congress
were eager for speedy action on .
successor to prepare the party for
the crucial 1916 congressional cleo
tions, in which they have high
hopes OF winning control OF the
House. Brownell conferred with
a group OF them here yesterday.

choice had been made but that
consideration had been given to
Sen. Kenneth Wherry. Neb.. Sen.
