WORTH RECALLING

In the light of President Trumans recent vetoes of both the tax reduction and labor bills, statement which ne made the American public shortly after the national election last November is worth recall ing:
 "The people have elected Republican majority to the Senate ana to the House of Representatives Under our Constitution the Congress is the awmakng body The people have chosen to entrust the con- trolling this branch of Government to the Republican Party accept this verdict in the spirit in which all good citizens accept the result of fair election"
 This statement seems to have said that the people had given mandate for legislative action and that President Truman had accepted the verdict of the American people.
 However. the President has chosen to go to the other extreme in vetoing the tax and labor bills, both of which fulfilling Republican campaign premises and mandates from the American people.
 The Congress had the strength to make the labor bill law in spite Presidential action but lacked the votes to bring about tax reduction this year in the I ce of presidential opposition This of course will give the Republicans plenty to campaign on in the next national election.

Press Crisis in Guatemala
(New York Times


 Three years ago Guatemala drove out it's dictator, Jorge Ubico and later his equally arbitrary General Federico Ponce. Two years ago it wrote into its Constitution a sweeping provision against censorships end expressions such Ubico had ticed The text of the Guatemalan law governing publications and radio, which has just reached this country indicates that the Government has taken a long backward step There is, to be sure, pre- censorship newspaper. a radio station, book pub fishing house Llay seemingly print broadcast what it pleases. But this apparent freedom is actually limited by severe penalties to be imposed on those who print or broadcast what thought to be the wrong things
 Common practice, if not common law, in this country might accept the provision that high public officials should not be quoted except in words they have actually used But the Guatemalan press and radio can also be punished if they propagate false or adulterated items about current events cap able of distm bing the peace tranquility of the Re public or of injuring the credit of the nation" Since almost any publications dspeasing to the party in opinion can easily be coerced and the constitutional freedom of speech and press diluted to the vanishing point
 In many ways Guatemala remains liberal State, with strong drive toward democracy and social jus tice Its friends in this country must hope that 1t will learn the lesson learned long ago in Britain and the United States that there is no democracy without a free press and that abuses of press freedom can be restrained by the ordinary laws of libel

And I can tell you there's damn little chance that the Democratic Party will enjoy the support of la bor if the party fails to uphold the yeto.'
 A few days later, Sunday night, June 15, the same group met with Clark Clifford. Clifford was discreet as to how strong veto message the President would send to Con- gress, but indicated that if he ve- toed, his message would also exert every influence to sustain his veto.
 It was following this that 13 Sen ators previously for the bill gath cred fer lunch with Truman, and that the President wrote one of the most vigorous messages. to Congress ever delivered in the Senate.

Some Findings

Cincinnati Enquirer
 A pamphlet called Economic Aspects of 1mmlgra- tion" issued by the National Committee on Immigra- tion Policy Gin examining the question of whether inn migration the United States is an asset or lla- bility) reaches the following conclusions
 uD-Reasonabe immigration is no liability to the nation, because fear of the immigration threat is based on fal,acy rather than fact
 (2)-Immigrant workers, it is recognized. do fill jobs but they also consumers thus increase the demand for goods and thereby stimulate industrial activity and create jobs for other workers.
 (3)-According to statistics presented in the pam phlet the periods of heavy immigration into the country have been periods of industrial expansion During the last depression immigrants left the country than entered.
 (4J Immigrant entrepreneurs are each shown to have created jobs for Americans. The majority of their undertakings are noncompetitive.
 The study to which refer has been reviewed by its research committee composed of distinguished group of scholars and socologists. The material is clearly and obectvely presented and forms the first of series on immigration in the postwar period
 In view of present labor shortages in certain categories of economy we believe that these findings on the side of immigration should have some bearing the counrys future policy with regard to it.

EAGLE RIVER GIRL
 SCOUT CAMP NOTES

Popcorn parties and scavenger hunts, cook outs and exploration hikes are filling the last eventful days at the Girl Scout Camp. Sev- eral are working on the Outdoor Cook Badge and are having plenty of opportunity to make wet weather fires.
 This week the girls are working on things for the design badge, these include: spatter prints, potato prints. stick prints, finger painting, wall paper designs, grass mats. Special work on prints was done today by Bonnie Wagner, Elsa John- son, and Yvonne Poole.
 Program aids who have been giv- ing valuable assistance during the full camp session are: Arlene God kin, Pat Oakes, Eva Knape, and Jeanette Doucette. These girls have been asked to come to camp to assist the counsellors in definite program fields. They are not as yet old enough to be counsellors and this phase of leadership takes place in camps only when adults are not available Last year seven program aids helped at camp, but this year only fciw were needed since we added the two adults unit leaders and the head crafts counsellor, mak- ing a complete staff of six adults, including the camp director and her assistant who also acts as water front director.
 Plans for next year call for more adults and special activities for the older girls.
 The staff wish to thank everyone who has helped with making the first session so much fun and will welcome visitors next Sunday for the Brownies Day. Anyone com ing out to camp might bring us some newspapers for carft projects and to help us pack equipment.

Jones himself owns an interest in a radio company, has applied for a wavelength in Lima, Ohio When he appeared before the EGG to ask that the petition be granted, he tes- tified: T have no general under standing of the Commissions rules.
 Again he made the frank admis- sion, my knowledge about radio is very simple
 Despite this, however, Truman, one day alter his Princeton exhor- tation to young men to enter the government, fired a public servant who had spent seven years knowing the intricate problems of radio, in favor of man who admitted he knew almost nothing.

PEACEMAKER PEPPER

Both friends and enemies agree that seldom has any President in history gone to bat harder to sus- tain veto than did Harry Truman on the labor bill. What they don't know, however, is that the secret strategy to spur the President was laid on Friday, June B, in the of flee of Floridas Senator Pepper, to- gether with Leslie Biffle, AFL boss Bill Green, John L. Lewis, CIO chief Phil Murray, teamsters union boss Dan Tobin and Edward Lyons, executive director of the Railway Labor Executives Association.
 Pepper, who had called the meet ing. opened it by saying the chance Of sustaining a Presidential veto of the Taft Hartley bill was meager. The general sentiment among Sem ate Democrats Pepper declared, lis that the President will have his penny and the cake by vetoing the bill, thereby winning political sup port of labor. Then he will let the bill he passed over his veto
 John L. Lewis, Phil Murray ct al agreed. Turning to Truman's close friend. Les Biffle, they said that veto wouldn't mean anything il it cid not include Presidential action to mobilize, support in the Senate, ! Biffle replied that he would take that view back to the White House.
 The bull-voced Lewis then rumb- led about the damage the labor bill already had done to his negotiations with the soft coal operators
 T could have settled all issues with them if the operators hadn't figured the gains they would make from the bill" he complained
 Johns right broke in Murray. John could settle that situation in two days if it weren't for the bill. .'
 How do the rank and file feel about the bill?" Pepper asked

HOWLS FROM WEST

Accordingly, Truman sent his name to the Senate. But 30 days later-immediately after his Prnce- ton speech urging young men to become caree" government servants Truman, without explanation re- versed himself. Here. however, are the real explanations:
 1.-Cpe June 13, Commissioner Wakefield voted to deny a radio station to the nephew of ex-Speaker Sam Rayburn, Rayburn's nephew, Robert T. Bartley, owns all the common stock in KHTN, Inc, and applied for a station in Houston. But Wakefield voted no Two days later, Sam Rayhurn demanded of the White House that Wakefield's s name be withdrawn
 Wakefield had also stepped on the toes of the big radio net works, had shown himself too in- dependent. Furthermore, Senators Taft and Bricker of Ohio didn't
  like him Taft has one radio station and Bricker has applied for one. But though Wakefield is a Repub- Hcan in good standing, they wanted an Ohio Republican in the key EGG job Their man was Congress man Robert Jones of Lima, Ohio Working a triple play-Speakel Joe Martin to eX-Speaker Rayburn to the White House-Taft and Bricker finally got Jones appointed Result: au immediate how from Truman Cabinet members; 2 an even more vigorous howl from the west.
 IL so happens that Congressman Jcnes is the man who. cut the rib. bons out of the appropriations ot Secretary of the Interior Krug Secretary of Agriculture Anderson and Secretary of Commerce Harri man No Republican in Congres hs5 been more ruthless ill wield .ag the pruning knives, net evei appropriations chairman John Tab CT of New York
 Telephoning Secretary Krug, Les lie Biffle joked: T see you're pull ing another Jed Johnson. You wan to get the man who cut your appro priatlons out of Congressie
 Biifle referred to the attempt b, Krug's predecessor, crusty Secretar. oi the Interior Ickes, to appoint tn, Congressman who cut his appropri ations. Jed Johnson of Oklahoma tt the Court Of Customs Appeals. Ac 'ually Krug new nothing about tn, Jones appointment to the EGG.
 When the news hit the west there was general gnashing o teeth. Not only did Wakefield, wh, got the raw deal from Truman have many California friends, in cluding Republican Senator Know land, but the west took it as an in suit that Congressman Jones o Ohio, who cut western reclamation to smithereens. now was rewarde, at the expense Of California.

Estates. Far from it. The subject is too
|big for partisanship or party consldera-
ltion.
The reason Mr.. Hoover would be the
right man for the job is because he
is the best informed mar on the adj
ADMINISTRATION of relief in the world.
He has already made two extensive
surveys of world conditions for Pres
ident Truman, a task in which he has
set aside all party considerations. He
has been guided by the need for human
aid and for the relief of human suffer-
ing.
Even though the present proposition
to lend a helping hand to Greece and
Turkey is not solely limited to human
need, but includes the need for shrink
ing Russia's expanding influence in
Europe, he is still the best man for
the job. And for the same reason, he
is the worlds best informed man on
the subject who would be available.
The one obstacle is his age, and that
is an obstacle no one but himself would
raise.

The Book OF KNOWLEDGE

to have begun the movement
known as the Reformation Of the
Church. He wrote sermons and
tracts on the state of the Church.
He was another Of the writers
who helped to accustom the people
OF England to read books in their
native tongue. Wyclif probably di-
rected the first full translation Of
the Bible into English, and it is
probable that he translated some
of it himself
A famous poem which has come
down to us from Chaucer's time
is The Vision Of Piers Plowman."
From this we Lear. much about
the sadness and misery OF the
lives of the poor people. 1t is writ
ten in the form of a vision, or
dream. and deals severely with
the evils Of the time. A large num-
Der of the words used are strange
and il is much more difficult to
read than Chaucer's works.
We know nothing about the au-
thor and his life except what the
poem tells us. Indeed it may have
been written by more than one
person. However, it is generally
believed that at least the most i'm
portant part was written by e man
named William L%angland, or
Langley.
1t is interesting that, although
books on religion, history, science
and law were written in prose,
nearly every story that has come
down to us from that time was
written in verse. Perhaps men
were still so near the time when
stories were always sung by min
strels that it did not occur to
them to write stories in prose.
Chaucer himself wrote some
prose. Two of the Canterbury
Tales are in prose. He also wrote
q scientific treatise for his son
whom he lovingly called "Litel
Lowis,> my some" He commended
the. boy for his ability to learn
the science of numbers and pro-
portions, and for his love of know
hedge. Chaucer shows himself here
as a loving Gather. but he has not
LEFT us a model for prose writing.
When he died in 400 English
poetry had attained a charm I'M
known in prose. Two centuries
later, English prose had acquired
a grace, sweetness and strength
that it has scarcely surpassed
since, while in poetry a stately
edifice had been built on the plain
foundations that Godfrey Chaucer
laid. 10
