pening is that the rebels so lightly
scorned by National Chairman
Reece as mavericks are aftixing the
conservative brand on the Republl-
can Congress far more effectively
than the Democrats could ever do.
And there's the rub: Any Republi-
can candidate must run on the
record of Congress, and plenty OF
them think it dangerous to be Ia
belled conservative.
Even Senator Taft of Ohio has
introduced health, housing and edu-
cation bills in an effort to prefix
moderate to the term conservative
always applied to him. Senator
Taft has many times asked plain
lively: What is q liberal anyway
Some interesting records on party
unity in Congress, compiled by Con-
gressional Quarterly, fact-finding
service here, don't quite answer
Senator Taft's question but they do
shed considerable light on what
brand of thinking is calling the tune
in each party.
Presumably a political party be-
longs to it's members and the record
of the Representatives they elect Is
their party's record. In Congress
the record is always reasonably clear
because members must answer roll
calls. 1t is these roll calls that the
quarterly has examined and ana

ton of the U.N. decree.
Palestine is regarded as one of the
top strategic points in the Middle
East because of its proximity to the
Suez Canal and the Eastern Mediter-
ranean, an area where Russia is
suspected of having designs.
If the Soviet delegation at the
U.N. had not blocked every effort
to create an international army ca
pable of dealing with such trouble
as now is occurring in Palestine, the
concern of American military men
would not have assumed it's present
proportions.
Without the Soviet opposition we
would have had an international
force ready to move into the dis
turbed area. If present disturbances
continue and the decision of the
U. N. is fouted by the Arabs-who
can cite an established precedent in
the Greek situation-only two ma
tions will be willing to send armed
forces-the United States and Rus
sia.
American ability to send an ex-
peditionary force to Palestine are
limited right now. We might pos
sibly gather together a couple of
divisions for this purpose, provided
complications did not occur in other
areas where we already have as
sumed responsibilities
Russia May Enjoy Chance.
The Russians have limited that
they are ready and willing to send
a large force. Without having
given any definite indication, it Is
believed that they would be glad to
move into Palestine at least four
times the number of troops the
United States would be able to
send.
Past experience has shown, &C
cording to our military men, that
the U. S. S. r. is quick to send troops
into any area where she can get
them in, but always encounters in
superable difficulties in withdraw
ing at the proper time. Soviet
troops become practically fixed to

Just as soon as we are able to

The members of my hunting club

limp. The president, a large man
who affords a good, slow target, has
been hit more times than the big
gest duck in a shooting gallery. The
secretary, a tall, long-necked fel-
low, has been mistaken for a tur-
key so often that he more than once
has spent the night in tree in his
front yard, instead of going to bed.
AS for the corresponding secretary
we'll, he has enough bird shot IN
him to qualify as Ripley's man OF

elsewhere and have not come back.
The population needs to be replen-
ished.
Some States Are Active.
Some of the States have gone
actively into the problem in recent
months. A commission appointed
by the Governor of Minnesota has
been digging up work opportunities
and cataloguing labor needs In all
parts of the State. 1t is not accept
ing general statements, but is pin
ming possible employers down to
actual commitments. 1t expects to
have exact figures in a short time,
but now estimates that Minnesota
can take in at least 10000 persons
to the States own benefit. Iowa S
Governor named a similar commits
sion November 20. Wisconsin's Gov
ernor is considering the matter.
Many industrial concerns are ask
ing for men. One wants 5000. But
the farms and small towns have
the first call in the minds of those
most interested in the displaced
families.
It has become obvious that the
400 900 can be absorbed easily and
beneficially. Congress may be per-
suaded to act early in the coming
regular session. The American
Legion having reversed its stand on
the question, only the dear old

for forgetting whence all us Amer
leans came-remaiIis in official

the soil wherever they visit, and
Moscow manages to find all kinds
of reasons why they cannot depart
again.
In other words, If the Arab threat
to fight the partition of Palestine
is implemented, there is more than
a $3.50 chance that the iron curtain
finally will encompass Palestine
thus giving Russia its first toehold
in the oil-rich strategic Middle East
The Russians do not need the oil
from that area, but If they can de-
prive the western nations of it.
their plans for world domination by
force would be measurably advanced
The fact that the Suez Canal is
only a few minutes fight from any
air base in Palestine is no mean ad-
vantage either. At the same time
the plans of the British general
staff, approved by the present Brit
ish government, for the establish
ment of an important base In Kenya
also will be jeopardized.
British Have Dropped Aid.
The British, who opposed the plan
to partition Palestine at this time
have decided to leave the task OF
establishing peace in that area to
those who wish, and have the
strength, to do so. British troops
already have ceased to participate
in the work Of the police IN Pales-
tine and are expected to complete
their evacuation of the Holy Land
in the next three months.
The question of who is going to
fight the 100000 Arabs-poorly
organized though they are-will be-
come the problem before the U. N
members who have the material
strength to cope with the situation
The Russians have indicated in
private conversations that they are
ready and willing to assume that
responsibility, single handed, If nec-
essary. Their eventual occupation
of Palestine would be on the legal
basis of a u. N. mandate and nc
one would be able to accuse Moscow
of breaking any agreement, as was
the case in Iran when the Russian
forces occupied Azerbaijan in 1916
under the pretext of assisting the
democratic" elements in that
province.
The prospect that the State De-
partment will be able to patch uI
any kind of peace in the Middle
East is extremely slim. The Moslems
from Egypt to Pakistan, are indig.
nant over what they regard as ar
American double-cross. They base
their argument on the fact that
President Roosevelt formally prom.
ised Ibn Saud that no final decision
would be reached on Palestine with
out full consultation with the Arabs
and approval on their part.
Economic and financial support
which is the principal diplomatic
weapon in the hands Of our State
Department, is Of no avail as far as
the Moslems of the Middle East are
concerned.

kept hope alive, hope for themselves
or their children.
We have no illusion that every
body loves us today. Yet we ear
nestly wish to win back as much Of
the worlds good will as we can. The
Marshall plan has that for one OF
its purposes, as does our human1-
tartan stopgap relief program. The
fact that other clearly recognizable
purposes are involved, however,
raises a question as to the amount
OF real friendship that will result.
But there is one thing we can do
that will go far toward restoring the
old feeling concerning ourselves in
number of countries where we have
reason to want to be liked. We
can begin, without further delay, to
take in our share of the displaced
families of Europe Every such
family taken in will mean new
connecting thread of friendship with
some country. The friends and
relatives left behind will look on
America as partly their own coun-
try, as was the case in the earlier
years of this republic.
U. s. Has Been Slow on Pledge.
We pledged ourselves more than a
year ago to receive 100000 of these
people, or roughly 100000 families.
We have been slow to keep our
pledge, but now the necessary ma
chinery seems to be moving. A
subcommittee of the House of Rep
resentatives surveyed the situation
and the displaced fanailies-in
Europe last summer. 1t now Is pre-
pared to report favorably on the
project to the committee considering
the Stratton bill. This bill provides
for bringing in 400, 900 displaced per-
sons-about half of Europe's total
number-at the rate of 100000 a
year. The subcommittee believes
they will make desirable citizens.
Meanwhile, the question of what
will become of them after they ar
rive is being answered. The Ma
tional Catholic Rural Life Associa-
ton, after preliminary surveys, nndS
it can place at least 25,000 families
Immediately where they can sup
port themselves and where, indeed,
they are needed. This equals one
full years quota. Protestant organ
izations, particular the Lutheran,
are making similar surveys and
should be reporting soon.
A number of our Western Plains
States have been losing population
in recent years. Census estimates
this year show the following losses
since 1910: Iowa, 83,546; Nebraska,
81, ,586; Minnesota, 97,022; Wiscon-
sin, 99,528; South Dakota, 131, ,272;
North Dakota, 148,417. The loss
