 Then he added to his callers:
 T did what I thought was right and I hope, as a personal favor to me, that you won't make an is- sue of this"
 When the President asks a per sonal favor of members of Con gress, even three Republicans such as Langer, Young and Robertson, he is not often turned down. So the North Dakota trio promised not to press their protest publicly.
 They left the White House with an intimation that Truman would recognize North Dakota's claim to future court vacancies but only an intimation, not a promise.
 Note-Senator Truman and Judge Collett used to occupy adjoining offices together in the Federal building in Kansas City Since Tru- mans office never had a phone, he used to step in to use Collett's. Thus they got acquainted.

PROHIBITION AND EDUCATION

In these days when so much attention has been brought to bear the nadequacy of teachers salaries we hear more and the rantings of those who would return country the days of prohibition
 The argument is advanced that well afford to spend much more for teachers salaries and other educational items because the nation spents S7OOO,- 100000 year on liquor against only 0oO0Oo0c0 for education.
 One minister taking short trip through Alaska, charged that Ketchikan people spend $5Ooo0oo year on liouor and GOO for education.
 Why not cut out liquor sales and double the money for education? So the argument goes.
 The spuriousness of such position should be apparent to all of us But apparently it is accepted in certain quarters Despite the obviousness of its falacies we will point them out more.
 We will presume that the national bill for liquor is ST 900 900 900 that much spent across bars and through the cages of state controlled liquor stores But what amount of that total actually goes for spirits? The U S. Department of Commerce recently found that lin excess of S3o000 Ooo of the total oor cash turnover into Federal State and local treasures in form of And of course, large portion of these taxes channeled into various departments of education. Thus, when a man buys a drink he buys part of glass of spirits part of glass of education'-if you please
 But the liquor purchaser also buys other items.

COALITION GOVT. IN ITALY FALLS;
 CHARGES MADE

ROME, May 14-lR-Premier Alcide de Gasperi handed his resignation today to Provisional President Enrico de Nicola as So- cialists and Christian Democrats charged each other with responsi- bility for the collapse of his coal ition government
 A communique from the Christ ian Democratic Premier's press office said de Gasperi was resign ing because of Socialist attacks on him yesterday. The three-party coalition has been torn with dis sention over Italy's debt problem.
 De Gasperi's public works min ister, Giuseppe Romita, asid after a 50-minute extraordinary cabinet meeting that the Premier's decision was taken because of a Socialist charge that he was deliberately fomenting a political crisis.
 De Gasperi who has presided over coalition of Christian Dem ocrats, Communists and Socialists for months, was expected to in- form the constituent assembly of his action in a speech tonight.

to the Senate the name of Francis Riddle to be U. s. Representative on the United Nations Social and Economic Council And in the Sen- ate Biddle's name has lain ever since-thanks to Sen. Arthur Ven- denberg. Three months have passed and the Senator from Michigan has not reported Biddle's name out of committee.
 Many Presidents of the United States, discouraged at the opposi- tion of so powerful a Senator, es- pecially one who has cooperated on other foreign policy matters, would have withdrawn Biddles name. In fact, Truman has been urged to do so. Under Secretary of State Dean Acheson, who belongs to the Felix Frankfurter school Gin vigorous op- position to Biddle), has advised Biddle's withdrawal. AcheSon has even wanted to appoint George Harrison in his place, and has suggested that Riddle undertake the codifying of United Nations laws instead.
 Senator Vandenberg has also in timated to Truman that he VI Il block Biddle's appointment indefln- itely
 Truman. however, has not been cowed The answer oI the man who once fired Riddle, presumably be- cause of pique regarding Fender gast, was letter to Vandenberg stating that he had absolutely no intention of withdrawing Biddle's name.
 It is now repCI-2C that Truman might be will lg to send Riddle as Ambassador to France-provided Bidsle is willing to make the switch But if Riddle wants to con- tinue the fight for the United Ma tions pest the President has made it clear he will back him to the limit.
 It seems only fair to report these facts about Harry Truman which I hereby do.

NORTH DAKOTA'S COLD
 SHOULDER

A significant drama took place behind the white doors Of the Presidents private office the other day. It featured the story of big little state-North Dakota-hattling for it's contended judicial rights
 Senators William Langer, Milton Young and Representative Charles Robertson of North Dakota-a big state with scanty population called on President Truman to pro- test the cold-shouldering of their state in the appointment of Mis- sourian, Federal District Judge John Collett, to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals.
 We don't fave anything personal against John Collett, MT. Presi- dent" argued Langer, but we think someone from North Dakota should have received that appointment North Dako,a has been a state for 57 years and in all that time it never i4dS lldQ d illdll Oll lllc Eighth Circuit bench"
 Langer added that in the same period every other state in the Eighth Circuit area had been re- presented on the Court. Missouri, the Presidents own state, has had five appointments, Langer said; Minnesota and Iowa, three each, and South Dakota, two Nebraska had been represented and so had Arkansas, to the best ot his know ledge, he said
 Well, I'll admit you've got a good case replied Truman. I've been in Congress myself and I know how you feel about this mat ter. But I just had to go through with the appointment of Judge Coliett. He's an excellent choice. I don't think I could have found a better man"
 The President didn't elaborate on whether the fact that Collett was an old Missouri sidekick and Di-

Money talks

money talks lot louder than political CUFF. 4
That's why Truman's budget and the places in which
he wants to put up" the peoples money is lot

Truman is for peace. Truman is for housing. That's
