The w Washinqt ion Merry Round
 By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-The 32 percent cut of farm funds, already causing so much COP teeth-gnashing in the Midwest was not achieved without some rough verbal slugging between Republicans and Democrats in the House Appropriations Con- mittee.
 Democratic Congressman Jamie Whitten of Mississippi hotly charg- ed that the COP Congress was breaking faith" with the American farmer. Everett Dirksen of Illinois, Chairman ot the Agriculture Sub- mittee on Appropriations, countered just as hotiy that he and other Republicans were only trying to put the farmer "on a respectable basis" by stopping Government handouts.
 We've got to quit treating the American farmer like serf, as they do in Russia yelled one Re- publican during the closed-door melee.
 Well, you folks have got the votes, so there is nothing we can do," angrily declared Mississippi's Whitten. We of the minority are tilting at windmills This very sub committee has been rigged against us. You've got five Republicans on the Agriculture Subcommittee to three Democrats, whereas all the other subcommittee are divided four to three.'
 Whitten leveled his break faith charge mainly at the extremely large slash in soil-conservation payments-s117 100000. The farm CTS, he declared, had already been promised" this money when Con- press authorized $3O0,000,000 last year. He added that some farmers had received full conservation allot- ments for 1947 in lime or fertilizer and now the Government would not live up to its agreement to pay for them.
 To this, Republicans Dirksen and Charles Plumley of Vermont coun- tered that many farmers had been loaded up with lime they didn't ask for" by their county agents with the result that committee in- vestigators had found considerable quantities of lime "rotting or farms"
 The Mississippian reported that this was news to him and certainly was not true in his farm district

The Great GameofPolit
Politics, Rather Than Terms of Bills,
Blamed for Truman's Two Vetoes

der the pressure. This was as
clearly shown by the strained in
dictment of the message as by the
somewhat hysterical radio address
in which he sought to justify him.
self. Both, as Senator Taft declared,
might have been written for him by
the CIO general counsel, Lee Press
man.
Failed to Be Convincing.
He had to resort to the arguments
of the labor propaganists and
press agents. He had to twist the
words as well as the purpose OF the
bill. He had to misrepresent its
character. He had to resort to in
genious and fallaclous points to
make the veto seem respectable
and he did not succeed.
He was disingenuous and uncan-
did. He ignored the fact that he
himself had made a far more
drastic" and punitive" request for
labor legislation last year-and been
turned down. And he failed to utter
single word in disapproval of the
gross abuse of union power by which
the comfort, health and general
welfare of the public had been
menaced in the past year.
1t is as impossible convincingly
to defend Mr.. Truman from the
charge of politics in this matter as
it is to regard his arguments as
sound. He has not reflected the
sentiment OF the American people
He has not reflected the sentiment
Of his own party, a majority OF
which In both branches Of Congress
supported the bill.
Probably his veto will be over
ridden. Certainly, it should be. But
should 1t be sustained, it must be
plain to the American people that
their only hope for legislation that
will protect them from the labor
bullies whose unrestricted power is
a constant threat to the economic
life of the Nation is through the
election of a Republican President
1t is discouraging, indeed, to real
ize that after the labor politicians
have lost their grip on Congress
and 1t has regained It's independ-
ence, they are still dominant in
the White House.
