that she no longer admits that this
food of war materials enabled her
to turn the tide of Germany's ag-

A quantity of heavy industrial
materials, including factories for
the manufacture of high octane gas,
had not been delivered when the
war ended. The materials had been
ordered through the proper chan
nels and had been approved by
American lend-lease authorities,
but for technical reasons had not
been delivered when Japan sur
rendered.
Ruling BY Joint Staff.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff, which
had authority over dispensing
lend-lease at that time, decided that
no further such shipments were
to leave the United States. This
ruling was adhered to, despite some
protests from lend-lease authori-

Not Spoiled.
Now, 1t is held, President Truman
has committed a grave blunder in
spelling cordial personal rela-
tionship" with Mr.. Taft. who, be-
cause of the attack, is expected to
oppose the Marshall plan, thus
breaking up the bipartisan coop
Grafton on international matters at
the moment when it Is most vital.
This may turn out to be tzue, but
there are one or two things that
should qualify its too ready accept
ance. In the first place, the cordial
personal relationship between Mr..
Truman and Senator Taft was not
spoiled by the Truman attack be-
cause no cordial personal relation
ship" existed to spoil.
The Truman attack of last week
was not the first time he has been
critical Of Senator Taft, and the
Taft reply was not the first in
which the Senator has been critical
of Mr.. Truman. Perhaps, Senator
Taft will not support the Marshall
plan for co-ordinated reconstruc-
ton next fall. But his opposition
will not be because Of personal hos
tility to Mr.. Truman. To assume
that, is to assume that Senator Taft
Is a small man who shifts his con-
victions on the gravest issues be-
cause of personal dislikes or preJu-
dice. That Is not the kind OF man
Senator Taft is. And that is not the
kind Of man Senator Vandenberg is.
No Personal Motive.
It is not far from insulting to-
either to convey the impression
that on an issue involving the well
fare of the world, as well as of their
own country, their position would
be affected by personal pique or
petty quarrels. It is true that Sem
ator Taft has said he Is "sympa-
thetic" toward arguments against
Mr.. Truman's proposal to equip
our South American neighbors with
American arms. But that is trivial
matter compared to the great plan
outlined by Secretary Marshall, OF
course. with the approval Of the
President.
The reasons for support Of this
plan seem clear and imperative.
They will be more so by the time
the special session convenes. 1t Is
to be hoped that Senator Taft
like Senator Vandenberg-will give
his support. But If he does not,
only those who do not know him
will believe Senator Taft Is ami
mated by a political, personal or
unworthy motive. Perhaps, our bi-
partisan foreign policy will escape
the great danger" ahead as it did
the dangers" that no longer exist.
Perhaps it will be possible next
year to write again that its health
is unimpaired.

Man to Man
Wallace Guilty of Cruelty to Politicians
In Muttered Threats of Third Party

unquestioned leader of the Repub-
lican organization of California
The Progressive ticket, while not
complete throughout, even In the
States where 1t might have a chance
to win, did have, in State after
State, strong candidates for Gov
ernor, United States Senator and
the House of Representatives. The
party ran candidates for State leg
islatures and county and local Off
ces. Moreover, Roosevelt had i'm
pressiye financial and business sup
port.
To whom could Henry Wallace
turn for running mate who would
be. as strong and impressive as was
Hiram w. johnson in 1912? Where
would his party find candidates for
Governor or lieutenant governor
or Senator or for the House of Rep
resentatives? What responsible men
or women would be willing to run
for various State Legislatures and
other local Offices which constitute
the background of any political
party? The answer is so obvious
that space would be wasted in its
simple utterance. And, finally, how
could such campaign be financed?
Not Even Good Bluff.
In 1912, Theodore Roosevelt car
ried 88 electoral votes as against
8 for President Taft. When Robert
M. La Toilette ran in 1924, he won
l3 electoral votes, those of his own
State of Wisconsin, but President
Coolidge showed up with 1892.

Marshall Loses Plea for u. S. to Fulfill
Lend.Lease Commitments to Russia

same advantages as Britain. France
and other members of the great
coalition which defeated the Axis.
Moscow insisted through diplo-
matte channels that the tail end of
lend lease be delivered to her on
the basis that she had placed the
orders while fighting was still going
on. Russia insisted, particularly. on
industrial equipment, such as fac
tories for the manufacture OF high
octane gas,
The State Department attempted
repeatedly to live up to this Gov
ernment's obligations but met def
mite opposition in both the Senate
and House, which on learning about
the matter cautioned the admini-
stration that no further money for
lend lease should be made available
to any nation.
Gen. Marshall was given this last
reminder of our war obligations
when he succeeded James F. Byrnes
as Secretary OF State.
ANXIOUS IOF M6L6Fldks
The Russians are anxious to OBJ
tain the ordered material. During
the Moscow conference last March
Foreign Minister Molotov took up
the matter with the Secretary of
State who, in hope of modifying his
Soviet colleague, cabled Washington
to expedite the matter of the ST.
900, 900 worth of industrial equip
ment for Russia.
BY the end of May Gen. Marshall,
who had discovered that Congress
was the bottleneck which prevented
shipment of the equipment to Rus
sia, appealed directly to the respon-
sible authorities in both the House
and Senate. But he was told that
not cent would be authorized for
such expenditures because, in the
eyes of Congress, lend-lease auto
matically ended with the cessation
of hostilities.
When he sent his message to the
House and Senate, Gen. Marshall
was reminded Of President Roose-
velts own statement that lend-lease
would be sent from this arsenal of
democracy to those nations which
fought Axis aggression. The Lend
Lease Act did not constitute any OBJ,
legation on the part of the United
States to continue this support after
the Axis was defeated.
Gen. Marshall was informed that
lend-lease ended automatically with
termination of the shooting war and
the surrender Of our enemies. No
diplomatic ethics" he was told,
could possibly enter into considera-
ton.

alton Is ABOUT 10 Dog GOWN.
For example. a short time ago, the
reason given was that President
Truman and Secretary Marshall had
not consulted" Senator Vandenberg
in advance of the announcement of
certain State Department policies
and also that Secretary Marshall
had not been able to establish quite
the same kind of "cordiality" in his
personal relationships as his prede-
cessor, the exceedingly affable James
F.. Byrnes. The unf1attering infer
ence was inescapable that unintelli-
gence and ineptitude existed on the
one side and a. certain smallness,
plus a lack of conviction, on the
other.
1t is pleasant to note that this
theory has now been dropped and
the information Is now presented
that Secretary Marshall and Senator
Vandenberg are on terms Of friend
ly intimacy" conferring informally
at frequent intervals in the privacy
of each others homes. This "situa-
tion," never well based though its
publicity was wide, must have both
annoyed and amused the Secretary
and the Senator. In any event, that
peril" to the bipartisan foreign
policy appears to have passed.
Nothing has been heard of it for
two weeks and more.
New danger" Arises.
But a new danger" has arisen.
This time it Is not the personal cor
diality between Secretary Marshall
and Senator Vandenberg that
threatens collapse. This time it is
the personal cordiality between
President Truman and Senator Rob-
ert Taft.
Some days ago Mr.. Truman in a
public statement assailed Senator
Tafts domestic economic policies
and Senator Taft made sharp
reply. in which he asserted the
President had misquoted him. Ger
tainly this shows lack of personal
cordiality" between the two men, but
what has that to do with the bi-
partisan foreign policy? We are told
that it makes very much less prob
able Senator Taft's support OF the
new Marshall coordination plan
for European reconstruction-a plan
so big and broad as probably to in
volve grants of something like five
billions year.
This plan, of course, has to be
ratified by Congress, and a special
session in the fall is advocated for
that purpose. In foreign affairs, up
to this time, Senator Taft has more

governors had urged him to run and
he was followed by some Of the
members of his cabinet, a bloc OF
Senators and Representatives and
other Republican officials. He took

Your State Health
Officer Says
RABIES

No one who has shown symptoms
of rabies has ever recovered. The
disease is 100 per cent fatal, both for
man and beast. Caused by a virus
that attacks the brain and spinal
cord, rabies is spread mainly by the
bits of infected dogs, though foxes,
cows, cats, hogs, horses, rats and
squirrels are also dangerous when
infected. Rabies virus is present in
the saliva of a rabid animal. If a per
son is bitten by this animal, the sal
iva, loaded with virus, enters the
body through the bite or through
any break in the skin.
In all cases of bites from animals,
scrub the wound with soap and
water as quickly as possible. Then 60
as oon as you can to your physician
or to your health department; the
physician will determine whether
you should be given the Pasteur
treatment for rabies, which will de-
pend chiefly on whether the biting
animal is mad. To find this out, shut
the animal up securely and watch
it closely for symptoms of rabies. II
the dog appears normal and remains
SO for 10 days, the possibility of rab-
les may be dismissed. If it is evident
that the animal is rabid, the bitten
person should receive the Pasteur
treatment without delay. If the dog
is killed or dies while under obser-
walton, its head should be packed in
ice and sent Immediately to the State
HYGIENE Laboratories in Jackson,
where it will be examined and a
prompt report given. DO NOT shoot
the dog through the head.
Vaccination of dogs, if properly
done, will prevent the disease in the
vast majority of cases. The vaccine
now prepared for this purpose is a
reliable product when kept r%efrigera-
ted according to instructions issued
with the vaccine and if used during
the period of potency shown on the
package. Dogs should be inoculated
every six months to insure IS full
protection as possible.
