Congressional Reaction to Price Rise
Called Worst Threat to Marshall Plan

Itself to such a step and is convinced
that the rank and file of British
people, who brought it to power,
have had enough of privately owned
industries.
France, Italy Bid for Aid.
The French and Italian govern
ments are less emphatic. They say
that middle-of -the-road policy
may have to be applied to counter
the activities of local Communist
parties. But they hastily add that
if no support comes from America
at once, there can be no question
that before the end of the year
Maurice T'horez and Palmiro Tog-
liatti-Moscow's voices in France
and Italy-will be in office.
When the point is raised that bill
lions of dollars already have been
advanced to restore the economies
of the Western European countries
without achieving any tangible re-
suits, the answer is given that
France and Italy have rid their gov
ernments of Communist participa-
ton only recently.
Furthermore, the statement is
made that the men who were ham,
stringing economic efforts have
been removed from Office and hence
forth it will be smooth sailing II
the masses are fed and provided
with fuel in coming months.
Remember Lend-Lease.
If American assistance is forth
coming. the European governments
say, it will be possible for them to
remove the present handicaps to
production imposed by the Commu-
mist dominated labor unions and to
induce the French and Italian peo-
pie to work longer hours. BY arrest
ing the price spiral, we are told,
the governments will earn the graft
tude of the mass of white collar and
industrial workers and thus stabilize
political conditions.
Calls for help arrive daily in the
State Department from the govern
ments throughout Europe and
American diplomatic representatives
stationed there. But the feeling of
"once bitten. twice shy prevails
among the vast majority of Ameri-
can legislators. They remember
they were told that lend-lease would
be the best insurance against our
involvement in the war They also
remember the pressure the State
Department used to obtain an ap-
preparation of nearly s3,000,o00, 900
for UNRRA as a guarantee that
postwar Europe would get back on
it's feet.
They remember the diagrams and
statistics presented to them by the
State Department to put over that
scheme. Now they are dist,:ustful
and worried lest they give American

a Republican advocate of the Taft
Hartley law and elected him by the
normal Republican ma aiority.
No labor leader, national or local,
really expected to win the election,
but most of them did expect to
demonstrate labor's political
strength. They expected to slice
the Republican majority fairly thin

of by-sitters for mothers who
otherwise would have stayed at
home. They found the money to
pay their own watchers at the polls,
as permitted under the Pennsyl-
vania law, and they trained the
watchers thoroughly for the job.
They used all the techniques
taught them by the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, which, greatly in
terested in the outcome, had sent
its own experts into the district.
They paid serious attention to the
last-minute exhortations from Pres
ident Murray of the CIO and Pres

out and did their damnedest. 1t

Even so, why didn't labor make a

nation is that it did not start its big

undertaking early enough. 1t failed
to get some thousands of its po-
tential voters registered in time to
vote; in fact, according to reports
received here, the increase in reg
istration over that for the last
regular election was only 1900.
But a better explanation appears
to lie in the nature of the appeal
made to the nonlabor voters. First,
a man identified chiefly as labor
leader was made the nominee.
Second, the rights of labor were
made virtually the sole issue. II
the majority of the voters in the
district had been members of Or
ganized labor, this would all have
been fine, but that was far from the
case.
In any district there are great
numbers of voters. Republicans as
we'll as Democrats, who are SYM
pathetic toward labor apd ready to
vote for a man known to be labors
friend. But that, in their minds,
is different from voting for man
who directly represents labor. On
the very face of the returns, this
must have been true of many Demo-
cratic and independent voters In
Tuesdays election. These were fear
full of an out-and-out labor candi-
date, and the high-pressure cam
paign tactics of some Of the union
men did nothing to allay their fears.
These matters are being given
considerable thought at Democratic
national headquarters. The prob
lem presented is how to get the full
benefit of the labor vote-which the
party must have to win in 48-
without losing any of the partys
own regular vote and It's share OF

Repeated efforts have been made
to get commitments from the gen.
eral by Mid-Western Senator and
by friendly editors. If he has made
them, they are among the few
well-kept political secrets.

than any American could hope to
WELD in his own country and he
is virtually free from criticism,
Some quarters, in a position to COM

he would occupy in politics, doubt

political firing line.
Gen. Macarthur is reported to
admire Senator Taft and the forces
that are his friends favor Mr.. Taft,
It is suggested that he might go
on the Senator's ticket. But again
military sources scof at the idea
of Gen. Macarthur exchanging his

Even If it were not for next years S
election campaign, American legis-
lators would be compelled to think
twice before appropriating billions
of dollars for foreign aid when they
are concerned over the consequences
of the present price level in this
country.

of Western Europe, particularly
Britain, France and Italy, are
clamoring for help. They have
adopted Winston Churchill's slogan

Western European leaders tell the

tical cataclysm will occur in West

lish her domination across the
English Channel without firing a
shot. Other consumers goods and

plants are not essential in the next

that the river itself is part of Ken
lucky. This was done to keep the
Indians from crossing the river on
any pretext.
Three Main Divisions.
Those who first settled in Ken
lucky crossed the mountain ranges
on its eastern border. The state falls
from height of about 1000 feet in
the eastern part to 300 feet along
the Mississippi river at it's western
edge. The part west of the Tennes-
see river is low and broken only
by creek and river valleys. The CEN
trail portion is mainly rolling. The
eastern part is mostly hilly or
mountainous. These natural divi-
sions have brought about variety in
both products and people. The en-
tire state, however, has a mild eli
mate and even temperature.
Kentucky Is first in many
things, such as caves and cav
ems, camel coal, native as
phalt, race horses and hemp. 1t
always has ranked high in tobac-
CO, coal and distilled spirits.
In mineral wealth Kentucky has
rich bituminous coal beds as well
as camel or gas coal. 1t has con-
sistent production of oil and gas,
the oil of very high grade. Near the
Green river are rock asphalt beds.
Kentucky iron is mined near Cum
berland Gap, and in Trigg, Lyon
and Caldwell counties in the west.
Other minerals include cement lime

stone, Kentucky marble, sand
stones, clays, barytes and phos-
pilates.
Rich in Forests.
Like all of the older states, much
of Kentucky's forest land has been
cleared and turned to agriculture
and livestock. Along the Allegheny
slopes, however, there is a great
quantity of fine timber, most of it
hardwood, such as oak, hickory,
black walnut, blue ash, maple, elm,
beech, and others.
Most of the people in Kentucky
depend on agriculture. The leading
farm products are corn, tobacco,
hay and wheat. For many years,
Kentucky produced all the hemp
grown in the United States. Truck
farms and orchards are frequent
along the Ohio river, especially near
such markets as Louisville and Gin
cinnati. The states best known
crop is tobacco, grown in several
areas.
Kentucky raises more cattle
than many western states and
has approximately a half-million

Three Years-Then Out

The five admirals l talked with
at the last Army-Navy game told
me they were going to stick to their
present system for coaches-three
years-and then back to Navy serv-
ice-with a new man in. This may
look to be happy plan-but it won't
work. Not a chance in the world.
I would vote 100 per cent to keep
Hamilton on the job. He will be bet
ter in 1948 and much better in l949
But to yank him out and bring in an
other navy man means Navy suicide.
1t may be Hamilton wants navy
service in place of coaching later on.
I wouldn't know about that. But
Hamilton now is just beginning to
get his grip.
Red Blaik, at Army, has been
coaching for more than 20 years
Army, Dartmouth and back to
Army again. Red is high-class pro-
fessiOnal coach with long experience.
Navy is the only football squad
that keeps changing coaches. They
are out of the job just as they are
finding what it is all about.
They tell me from Annapolis that
Navy won't have professional
coach or keep such a man as
Hamilton in after his three years of
football service. This is all right if
the admirals and the leading navy
officials get a. kick out of seeing
young midshipmen knocked down
and hammered around week after
week. l don't think they do. Foot
ball coaching today is just as much

as handling battleship or any form
