WASHINGTON Defense Sec
retary James V. Forrestal has
promised his next press confer
ence an historic answer to the
embarrassing question, Are
YOU a candidate for tn e Vice
Presidency and would you run
if nominated by the Democratic
convention?"
The word has leaked out that
the Secretary's e cretaries are
having a tough time trying to
think up the right answer to that
$64 nifty. In the interest OF try
ing to be helpful, it therefore be-
comes duty and privilege for
anyone h v ing constructive
ideas on this subject to send IN
suggestions and help get the
Hon. Secretary out of the Hon.
hole.
For some strange reason, pub
lie officials who are painfully,
stubbornly sure of thems elves
on most issues, become tongue
tied and club-footed, and stutter,
stammer and stumble all over
the lot in mock, modest con-
fusion whe n approached Oh
questions of political intentions.
In a recent poll of Washing
ton celebrities, conducted by
this department, one question
asked for preferences on Presi-
dental and Vice Presidential
nominees for the two parties in
1948. The most amazing thing
about the returns was that only
10 Senators and "a Congressman
filled in the space where they
were supposed to give their
choice for Vice President.
There are two conclusions.
Either (A), they did not care,
or (B), each may have thought
he was the man of destiny, but
was afraid to admit it in writing.
Why anybody wants to be Vice
President-or President Tor that
matter-will always be billion
dollar mystery.
Here is General Eisenhower,
with all the honors in the world
that anyone could ask for. He
can retire gracefully to the aca-
demic security of Columbia Uni
versity campus and live on his
laurels. If nominated for the
Presidency, and more SO If
elected, he will have to submit
to all the slam-bang criticism
that high office always gets
And why Secretary Forrestal,
with his swell war record,
should want to risk a defeat in
1948, or preside over the Senate
for four years even if he won,
is completely battling. =,

The Rationing Plan

President Truman, through his agencies,
has asked Congress for authority to ration
Just about all of the really important es-
sentials.
Russia stands UP and tells off the west
ern powers.
The jews and the Arabs, no matter which
is right, seem bent on joining forces to
bring on another war
The only bright spot is Frances handling
of the communists
So, it seems it's up to the American
public to get behind the wheel and share
alike as much as possible.
To do this will prevent it from becoming
necessary for the President to invoke the
gress grant them to him.
Rationing is a distasteful thing, at best
Cooperation is less so.
president Truman hasn't asked for this
drastic measures approval for but or
reason: it may be necessary to have II
on the law books. in the near future.
The events of recent months SEEM to
add up to one thing, i.e., that America
isn't the land of plenty it used to be and

we have enjoyed in the past.
The facts are there. However unpleasant
they may be, we must face them. To dc
less would only add to the bad situation.
To act now may have restraining In
fluence on what some term the inevitable.
Mr.. Truman, and we're speaking of the
President, not the man. no doubt would be
a lot happier if he could just be President
as was the case in other administrations.
Instead he finds himself in the center OF
a nation gradually starping ftr essentials
while at the same time he is confronted
with a world ever more hungry for what
we have left.
Today the world isn't much different.
Only now a mission calls, a few state din
ners are enjoyed and more OF Americas
wealth is scattered throughout the world,
some of it to nations that are apparently
more war b t tha industrious.

INITIATION AND THE KEY
MEN

Those who have followed the
argument about our Initiation
and what to do about it could
now, it seems to me, come to
one useful and definite conclu-
sion. They could, without too
much difficulty, name the key
men whose views must be recon-
ciled if the inflationary boom is
to be checked and controlled.
These key men are, first, the
leading figures in government
finance, second, the leading fig
ures in the Federal Reserve
Board, third, the leading figures
in the banking community Il
they can agree on a policy and
on measures, then the prospects
of regulating the boom are good
enough. If they disagree, GO in
opposite directions instead OF in
the same direction, then it is as
certain as anything can be that
the boom will run it's course to-
ward a bust.
For separately, it is impos-
sbile for the government, or for
the Federal Reserve Board, or
for the bankers to arrest the in

The antifeather bedding pro-
vision Of the Taft-Hartley Act is
going to get its first tes in court.
The N tional Labor Relations
Board has been granted re-
straining order against a Team
sters' local charged with de-
handing that a union truck driv-
er be paid for trip actually
made by a nonunion driver.
The details of this case are
not yet clear. And the alleged
feather-bedding is tied up with
charges of a secondary boycott
as well. But the need for spe-
cific court definition is clear
enough. The famous Supreme
Court decision which upheld the
legality of similar union prac-
tees in New York City did not
condone the methods, but found
that no Federal law as then
written forbade them.
Even before its passage, the
wording of the Taft-Hartley Act
was questioned sharply n Con-
gress. Would its ban on causing

They Can't Say No
By PETER EDSON

But all people seem to sue
curnb when bitten by the politi-
cal bug. They all become like
the buxom blonde in "Okla-
homa" who always gave in
when courted by the boys,
"Cause I caaaaan't saaaaay,
mol" Well, that could be Sec
retary ForrestaPs historic an
sWer.
Maybe that would be too
simple. What the Secretary OBJ
viously needs is a line like Cen
eral Sherman's, II will not run
if nominated and will not serve
if elected" Only better.
Henry Clay had a good line
in "Td rather be right than be
President" which might be al
tered to, "I'd rather retire than
be Vice President, there's no
place like home"
If the Secretary thinks he has
a fuli-time job where he is, and
has no time for campaigning, he
might do something with a
famous crack from R u therford
B. Hayes. Hayes refused to ask
for : Civil War furlough so he
could run for Congress by say
ing, can officer fit for duty, who
at this crisis would abandon his
post to electioneer for Congress,
ought to be scalped." P.S.-
Hayes got elected anyway, and
later was elected President.
If the Secretary hasn't yet
made up his own mind, what he
wants is an answer that means
all things to all people. like
David Harman's Eyes, an no,
an mebbe, an mebbe not"
Another out for the Secretary
would be to leave it up to fate,
with a quotation like Viscount
Bolinbroke's, God w h o placed
me here will do what He pleases
with me hereafter, and He
knows best what to do"
William Jennings Bryan, who
couldn't say no three times rum
ming and got licked every time,
had good line in his Cross of
Gold speech which might be
paraphrased into, "You shall not
press down upon my brow this
crown of thorns!" A ringing
phrase like that should leave no
doubt that an available man
wanted no part of the job.
But the best line of all, if the
Secretary really doesn't want
the job, is to set it to music
and play it like a singing COM
mercial every time he is asked
if he wants to run for office:
'No, no, a thousand times, No.
I'd rather die than say, Yesi"

It is admittedly an unorthodo1
plan. But the size of our govern
ment debt is also unorthodoX, IN
deed quite unprecedented, and
the effect of a drastic fall IN the
price of government bonds
would now be even more deVaS'
tating than it was in 1920.
Yet there are men OF great a0,
thority whose views command
complete respect, who bcheye
as one of them wrote to me re-
Gently, that initiation cannot 0e
checked as long as the Federal
Reserves Board and the Treasury
believe they must 'valorize the
at a level to yield less than z l-1
total debt of the United State'
per cent on the longest bonds.
For in holding up government
bond prices at this level the
Federal Reserve creates creo''
and the monetary Initiation.
which is the cause Of price n,
flation, will continue and grow.
Here is the most difficult ana
the paramount issue which h"
to be resolved. 1t is how on
enormous war debt is to be man
aged so that, on the one hanG,
the price of bonds does not "a,
seriously and, on the other hanG.
that the over-expansion OF oa~
credit is checked. j,
The issue is not one, we na,
better admit, on which any d
us who are laymen, have noc'
to contribute. The best we em
do is to urge Mr.. EccIes sn'
Mr.. Snyder and the leaolns
bankers to agree if they can
And if they cannot agree, tne. AZ.
to lay before Congress ana 'ns
people a clear statement Of Jus.
precisely where they disagree
