York is that the Democrats, long
disorganized, materially improved
their organization position but in
large part at the cost of an open
breach with the American Labor
Party which is credited with Com
munist wing.
What 1t Could Mean.
The record screams what this
could mean to them:
In 1874, Mr.. Roosevelt carried New
York-by 316,591 votes. OF his
majority, ALP gave him 4s6,4o5 votes
and an ALP offshoot Of Communist
free liberals, the Liberal Party, 329,-
235. Both, and especially ALP. have
naturally felt very cocky and en-
titled to speak right up to the DEM
ocratic leaders of the State.
In 1916 the Democrats listened
and their candidates accepted ALP
nominations. This fall most of them
didn't. Edward J. (You're, The
Boss Flynn refused to allow his
Bronx candidates to accept ALP in
dorsement. City-wide Democrats
broke with ALP on proportional
representation, which. permits mi
nority representation on the City
Council, and helped defeat it.
Both sides are now talking tough.
Democratic State Chairman Fitz-
patrick will refer future ALP policy
to his leaders, Of whom Mr.. Flynn is
by far the most influential. The
ALP asserts that the Democrats

leaning toward Constantine Brown
fascism, have barely mentioned Aus
tria in the last few days. This
is just lull before the storm, our
political forecasters believe.
In CZechoslovakia communism is
is strong simply because of forceful
actions by the Moscow trained Pre-
mier, Klement Gottwald, who re-
ceived his Communist indoctrina-
ton in the International Brigade in
the Spanish Civil War. A drive is
under way there to remove from
the government all cabinet minis
ters who are not 100 percenters'
and have outlived their usefulness
in creating the illusion that the
Czech government is representative
of the people.
Benes' Situation Precarious.
President Eduard Benes' own situ-
alton is reported to have become
precarious, and while there is not
yet any overt attack on him, he has
confded to a few of his intimate
foreign friends that he does not
know how long he will be safe.
The same thing is said to be
worrying Jan Masaryk, the able
Czech Foreign Minister, who made
the capital mistake last summer of
indorsing the Marshall plan before
withdrawing his acceptance of an
invitation to the Paris conference.
His knuckles were raped when
he went to Moscow.
For the time being Premier Gott-
wald is content to consolidate his
power by bringing the anti-Com-
munist Slovaks under the Prague
administration. The remainder of
this work of consolidation-consist-
ing in the elimination of such doubt
full elements as President Benes and
Mr. Masaryk-is expected to come
later.
Czechoslovakia is important to the
U. S. S. R., militarily and strategi-
cally rather than politically. The

For hardship No. 4 I have re-
served the keynote speech. It takes
a strong man to be hit on the
chin with seven straight cliches. It
requires first-class physical condi-
tion to be driven into the ropes
with platitudes and then hammered
about the head and kidneys with
generalities and purple patches.
and that Is what one must endure
once the keynote speaker takes his
place on the platform and squares
of with his keynote.

three Of them-1932, 1886, 1940-and
I limped from the convention cities

ton Of q presidential nominee.
Assault on Ear Drums.
The hardships one must endure
when one attends q national po-
litical convention are manifold.
There is that mighty, mighty pipe
organ which adorns all convention
halls, for one thing. These organs
have more pipes than Dunhill has
made in a century and, If the VOL
ume Of sound is any clue, are
played by a 500-pound man with
hands OF lead. From the time the
first delegate wanders into the hall,
until the last charwoman Is gone,
the organist assaults the ear drums
with a Niagara Of sound.

YOU that my ears still ring with

delegate there is q photographer
and around every photographers

This Changing World
Soviet Tightens Central Europe Grip
Before Big Four Meeting on Nov. Is

discovered uranium deposits, make
that country vitally important for
the Soviets. A wide-gauge railway
line-Russian width-has been built
to permit direct communications
with Russia, whose general staff
officers are now advising the Czech
Army.
Because the Czechs and Slovaks
are strong individualists and con-
sequently do not like the police
state which Premier Gottwald
wants to impose on them, Moscow
considers it essential now that a
strong government replace the
somewhat diluted administration
now holding Office in Prague.
Moves in Romania.
A similar situation exists in Ro-
mania, where the government,
nominally headed by Petru Groza
but in fact dominated by Anna
Pauker, the Comintern representa-
tive, is a far more willing tool for
Moscow than is the Czech govern
ment.
Georgia Tatarescu, who resigned
as Romanian Foreign Minister, was
at the time of his resignation the
only member of the government
who did not pay blind allegiance to
the U. S. S. r. Mr.. Tatarescu was in
the Romanian government while
that country was q Hitler satellite.
This fact, in itself, is inconse-
quential, for all former Nazis are
accepted with open arms in the
Soviet t-dominated countries. With
the moose hanging over their heads.
they are more subservient tools Of
Moscow than the new 'adherents to
Communist doctrine.
Mr.. TatareScu Is suspected of
having had certain political fiirta-
tions with the American, British
and French missions In Bucharest
and to have expressed himself oc-
casionally in terms other than
those dictated by Nine. Pauker.
Now that the Romanian military
court, composed of especially hand
picked officers, has convicted the
members of the Communist
opposition headed by the 75-year-
old Juliu Manu-, it is expected that
Mr.. Tatarescu, too, will be in
dicted as a plotter against the state.
All these moves by Russia in Gen.
trail Europe and Rordania have a
definite purpose: To confront the
Foreign Ministers of the United
States, Britain and France with ac-
complished facts when they meet
in London two weeks hence.
The Soviet government is aware
of the possibility that If Secretary
of State Marshall Is blocked in
reaching an agreement on peace
with Germany, he will decide to
make a separate peace. The Rus
sian answer is expected to be the
integration of her zone Of occupa-
ton Of Germany and Austria and
possibly CZechoslovakia.

Vandenberg Lends Calm, Supporting
Voice for Z. S. Aid, Including China

This could be prevented, he urged,
at total cost to us Of 81, $50, 900 900
Cor about one-tenth Of what saw
ing Western Europe will cost, to
be expended for necessary food,
munitions, military aid and none
tary stabilization. And, he argued,
saving China is more vital, because
"the independence Of the United
States will not live a generation
longer than the independence Of
China" This Is a startling state
ment, indeed, but not one that can
be lightly disregarded.
In his book on Russia in 1945,
Mr.. Bullitt made a number Of state
ments almost equally unequivocal
and startling. At the time, he was
rather severely and quite widely
criticized. But events Of the last
"a months have gone a long way
TO sustain statements that then
seemed to many violent and extreme.
He was right then; he easily may
be right now.

New York Democrats Seen in Move
To Break Off Left.Wing Alliances

have destroyed their alliance with
ALP and mention revenge.
Because OF the scattered nature
OF Tuesdays balloting, 1t Is difficult
to tell how strong ALP still is. They
seem to have approximately 100000
votes in the city, which they hailed
as a percentage-wise increase over
1916.
But the figures, including the 1914
ones, do not tell all the story, as
death and peace have combined tc
alter the political climate in which
ALP fiourished. ALP was the crea-
ton Of two men: MIR. Roosevelt, who
hated and was hated by Tammany
Hall, and Sidney Hillman, the labor
statesman with the knack fol-
smoke-filled-room politics who coulo
plunge his hand virtually at will
into labor's huge treasure chests.
ALP Has No Big Leader.
In 1914 also we were at war, Rus
sia our ally and American CON-
manists either lying doggo or pre-
tending to be an American party
like any other. In ALP, Mr. Hillman
kept them firmly In check.
Messrs. Roosevelt and Hinman are
gone. ALP has now no leader either
of national stature or mature wis
dom. The Taft-Hartley bill has
calmed labor's rowing blood and
turned unions home to the Demo-
Gratis. Russia is on the rampage and
so naturally are the American Com
munists to the point where they are
out in the open, public nuisance
and an obvious political liability tc
everybody, including ALP.
Labor experts who pointed out at
the time that Hillman's death was
the greatest possible loss labor could
suffer politically, believe ALP repre-
sents an ever-lessening threat. They
doubt it will now get the funds 1t
needs for effective work.
Some Democratic spokesnen are
cautious. They say nobody can tell
year ahead what will happen; that
many things might occur to resolve
the situation without a break over
the Truman slate. But the betting
is that the Communist houseclean-
ing is on its way. MIR. Flynn ano
Mrs. Roosevelt are it's advocates ir
New York at least, and you can
hardly get better in a Democratic
battle.
