Tentative Bid by Brazil
For World Bank Loan
Revealed by McCIoy
BY the Associoted Press

John ]. McCloy, World Bank
president, said yesterday that Brazil
has made tentative request" for
q loan for use in power develop
ment.
Mr.. McCloy told a news confer
ence that the amount of the pro-
posed loan has mot been fixed" A
two-man economic mission of the
bank has been sent to Brazil to dis
cuss the request.
Mr.. McCloy said the banks deal
ings with Brazil have absolutely no
connection" with the trip by Sec
retary of the Treasury Snyder to
that country. Mr.. Snyder is now
in Brazil on what he described in
advance as a social visit" but
financial matters also are expected
to engage his attention.
Working on Dutch Loan.
Mr.. McCloy also told reporters
that:
/, The Netherlands application for
a $685., 900, 900 loan over three-year
period is pretty well along" toward
completion, although the amount
the bank will actually lend is mot
set"
diplomatic officials have pre-
dicted the amount will be $780,
100000 to s200.o00000 ana that
the loan by the bank-whose
only loan to date is $250,000,000
to France-will be granted in a
few weeks)
2. The bank will not be passing
on "the merits or dement's" of the
trouble in Indonesia. where Dutch
soldiers are fighting Republican
troops. 1t will Judge the Neither
lands application only as to wheth-
er it is a sound, productive loan"
with reasonable prospects of repay
ment.
3. The bank, pleased with results
of the recent sale of securities to
American investors, does not plan
any further sale in the immediate
future" and will give the market "a
breathing spell"
Coal Held Important.
4. Britain has not applied for any
loan from the World Bank nor init
mated that it will despite the rapid
exhaustion of the $3,750,000,000 loan
granted the British by the United
States year ago.
5. An application by Denmark for
q S50,000,000 loan from the bank is
nearing the agreement stage. 1t
was indicated loan to Denmark
will follow the proposed loan to the
Netherlands.
6. The bank views coal as extreme
1y important to the revival of
Europe. If funds to stimulate pro-
duction are needed - whether to
England, Poland or the German
Ruhr or elsewhere-the bank will be
glad to consider an application
from member countries or their
agencies"
7. France still has a substantial
amount" left of the S250,000, 900
loaned her by the bank in June and
the understanding is that the money
will last until about the end of this
year at least.
Deficit of S938,647.
8. The bank would necessarily
have to correlate it's action with the
Marshall plan for aid to European
countries which try to help each
other if the plan "eventuates and
is on substantial scale"
The bank has notified its A men,
her countries that it operated at
deficit of 1898 SAT for the fiscal year
ended June 80. Mr.. McCloy also an
nounced.
The banks expenses for the per-
iod-consisting principally of s1,043,
288 for salaries-were $2,142,276.35
while income was listed as s1,203,-
62934
Mr.. McCloy said the extent of the
deficit was due to the fact that there
was no income from loans until
June 9, when the banks initial $3.50,

Senator Morse said, labor is going to
strengthen its position with American pub
lie opinion best by confning its program
for an overhauling of the Taft-Hartley law
to "the democratic procedures available
to it through legal tests in the courtrooms
of America and political tests at the voting
booths of America" The wiser heads in
the labor movement know that nothing
will so strengthen sentiment behind the
Taft-Hartley law, or add to it's minimum
of restrictions, than labor tactics which
take the form of open defiance of law
of the land.
As for the law itself, it is going to be
judged-at the polls and elsewhere-not by
the amount of rhetoric utilized in its con-
demnation, but by the way it works 1t was
put on the books by public sentiment, re-
flected by votes for its passage of 308 to
LOT in the House and 68 to "a in the Senate
on the original bills 800 to 70 in the House
and 81 to II in the Senate on the final con-
ference compromise; 331 to 83 in the House
and 68 to Is in the Senate on overriding
the Presidents veto. If that sentiment Is
reversed at the polls next year it will be
because the law has revealed more weak
nesses in practice than its critics thus far
have been able to single out in their fiery

Bad for Police Discipline

While there can be no question as to the
right of the Commissioners to overrule the
Police Trial Board, there is serious ques-
ton as to the wisdom of their action in the
case of Policeman James A. Stewart, Jr.,
convicted by the board of beating a
Georgetown University student.
In the first place, the Commissioners
notification of the dismissal penalty i'm
posed by majority of the board suggests
that the Commissioners are less concerned
about police brutality than the trial board
is. The Commissioners did not question the
facts of the case or the unanimous finding
of the board that Policeman s. Tart was
guilty as charged. The only explanation
was that of Commissioner John Russell
Young to the effect that dismissal was too
severe a penalty and that $400 fine was
enough punishment.
But by limiting Policeman Stewarts
penalty to the fine and by restoring him to
duty, with full back pay, the Commission
ers have softened the blow to, such an ex-
tent as to justify complaint of discrimi-
nation by Stewards companion, Policeman
Warren Garrett. The latter, who stood by
while Policeman Stewart made the alleged
attack on the student, was fined $3.50.
Instead OF appealing to the Commissioners,
Garrett accepted his penalty and returned
to duty. Thus while Garrett has been
working off his fine, Stewart in effect has
been enjoying vacation with pay.
The net result is not conducive to the
morale and discipline of the Police Depart
ment. The action inevitably will raise
doubt, in police ranks as we'll as outside
the department, as to the sincerity OF the
recently announced drive to eliminate
rough tactics in the department. 1t would
be most unfortunate if the action of the
Commissioners in the Stewart case should
be interpreted by members of the police
force as even the slightest condonement of
police brutality or discourtesy toward the
public But how can any other interpreta-
ton be possible?

per cent of the vote Coup, repression and
fraud thus have failed to promote anything
like a landslide for Moscow's agents in
Hungary.
In fact, even the Social Democrats, who
have worked closely with the Communists
In the so-called coalition government at
Budapest, appear to have had their fill of
MARKHAM tactics, and their representa-
tives in the united-front regime are re-
ported to have resigned. Despite this, OF
course the Hungarian Reds may be ex-
pected to carry on, entrenching themselves
more than ever 1t is interesting, however,
If not significant, that their cheating and
intrigue have alienated some of their old
collaborators and won them precious few
new friends The people of Hungary are
not free, but neither are they blind. If
they could have an honest election. the
Communists probably would be their last
choice-certainly not the first as now.

We think OF many things to keep Junior
busy 1t is not always desirable to keep
boy any length of time on the street, because
the children soon get into mischief. What Is
an average American family to do? He has
paper route; had one last year, too. He Is
only II years old.
Just recently we bought him student trum-
pet. We hope that some day he will play in
the school and church orchestras. He must
practice for one hour at least twice week. He
should practice every day. The neighbors are
all complaining about this one hour. In the
morning some one must sleep, so we tried the
afternoon. In the afternoon, some one else
must sleep or the baby must have his nap
He cannot play at all, If we are to please our
kind neighbors yet they think nothing of 1T
when they throw party, playing their radios
full blast and singing, laughing and talking
until o'clock in the morning. We never
complained to them about this
Some of these same neighbors criticize
parents, especially the mother of a home, when
their boys get into mischief, and have hard
things to say about this juvenile delinquency
problem. Yet, what are they doing to help
I'd like to know. 1t is always easy to talk
about something but more dihcult to help
prevent these problems.
II people are really concerned about juvenile
delinquency am sure they would all CO.
operate to combat it. But there are many
good Christian people that fight the battle
alone, in a neighborhood where everybody
expects children to be as quiet as mouse.
Some of our dear people will yet have to
wake up and learn to live for Others and not
only for themselves. ONLY A HOUSEWIFE.

Tinted Currency

Artist Norman Rockwell's one-man cam
paign to induce the Government to change
the color of that much abused greenback,
the two-dollar bill, deserves popular sup
port. Every luckless citizen who has had
the sad experience OF paying out two
dollar bill by mistake for one-dollar piece
of folding money is potential partner in
Mr.. Rockwelrs enterprise.
Noting that Representative Edith Nourse
Rogers had been quoted as favoring tinted
currency, just like stamps, the Vermont
artist told reporters that if such plan
goes through, he would like the honor OF
selecting the color for the tricky two-spot
1t should be brilliant shade of red, he
said, so as to fash warning to the un-
wary II would rather see red beforehand
than after discovering I had mistaken it
for a one" he explained.
The Treasury should give Mr.. Rockwell'S
proposal the consideration it deserves. The
man who camouhaged the two dollar bill
to look so like the dollar bill has cost the
American people lot of needless worry,
to say nothing of dollars lost in short
changing deals. He is in a class with the
gentleman who thought up the wartime
penny that looks like a dime. Time Is
changing the hue of the steel cent but 1t
will take drastic reform of the type sug
gested by Mr. Rockwell to end the two
dollar-bil nuisance One drastic solution
would be to Go away with the two o-dollar
bill. Few would miss it. In lieu of that
step, the stop-look- and make-certain red
signal plan seems to be the only hope.

Hunqory's Election

The surprising thing about the Hun
garian election is not that the Communists
have won but that they have won by such
a relatively small margin. With 2l.6 per
cent of the total vote, they have emerged
as the strongest party in the country, but
they have gained only 4.6 per cent more
supporters than they had in the election
of 1945. Considering their beforehand
efforts to rig the outcome Overwhelmingly
In their favor, this seems poor showing.
First of all, weeks prior to the balloting,
q Soviet-inspired coup placed the Com
munists in control of the Hungarian gov
ernment. They then disfranchised over
100000 citizens suspected OF being
against them, and just before the polls
opened on Sunday they distributed thou
sands of certificates enabling their friends
to vote for them as many as twenty times.
Despite such fraudulent arrangements,
however, or perhaps because of them, the
party now stands a poor first in the
country, Just trif1e stronger-in terms of
numerical support-than they were two
years ago. when the democratic Small
holders Party came to power with the
backing OF 81 per cent OF the electorate.
Arrests and suppression have pretty well
scattered the Smallholders. but those who
voted that ticket in the past obviously have
not been won over to the Communist Party.
Indeed, there were enough of them in
Sundays balloting to give the Smallholders
152 per cent of the total vote; others Of
them-the ones who escaped being disfran-
chised-apparently distributed their sup
port among other parties, notably the new
Catholic backed Democratic Peoples Party,
which has come out of the election second

A Borroge on One Target

No legislation in recent history took
the verbal drubbing administered to the
Taft Hartley labor relations law on Labor
Day Almost every speaker whose remarks
were reported took fling at it. Mr.. Green
said it was "the most offensive and most
reprehensible law ever enacted against the
Nations workers" Mr. Murray referred to
it as infamous" Senator Pepper spoke of
it as "this inequitable Taft-Hartley Act e.
its clutch around the throat of every Am
erican working man and working woman"
Mr.. Wallace used it as an example of things
to come If the Democratic Party did not
return to the paths of righteousness
This was to be expected. For labor's
spokesmen have been concentrating the
vitriol of rich vocabularies on the measure
since its inception in the House, never
sparing an adjective as it worked its way
through Congress and over the Presidents
veto. It is one thing on which all elements
of labor, no matter how divided they may
be in other respects, can agree And Labor
Day was the appropriate time to come down
on it again with both feet.
Yet in all these attacks on the BILL one
thing stands QUITO the credit of those
who spoke in condemnation and regardless
of the intemperate use of the English Ian
guage. This was the appeal to work for
repeal Of the law and the defeat of those
who stood for it through the orderly proc
esses of the ballot box and by suits at law.
Mr.. Green summed it up in the statement
that 1--WE must fight our enemies, not with
ill-considered strikes, but with ballots, in
the peaceful democratic way. - For our
own good and the welfare of our country
we must keep production going at full
blast and the wheels of industry moving
without serious interruption"
That is the wise approach, for labor as
well as for everybody else. As sympathetic
