This Changing World
Farm Strike Enforced by Red Toughs
In Italy Is Typical Problem for u. S.

anything else, organized labor
heavily packed with followers oi
Moscow-insist not only on shorter
hours but on strikes which can only
doom their respective countries.
1t Is in the light of these facts
that the Senate Appropriations
Committee, convened by Chairman
Bridges, will be compelled to ex-
anime the tragedy of Europe.
Secretary Of State Marshall
while avoiding an outright request
for a special session Of Congress to
consider his plan to spend more
billions of dollars on Western Eu-
ropes revival, has indicated unmis-
takably that some action must be
taken Immediately. Since the execu-
tive branch Of the Government no
longer has the power-used in war
time-of freely spending the taxpay-
ers' money, it is up to Congress to
decide what shaE De Gone.
The situation requires quick ac-
ton, according to Gen. Marshall's &
statement last Wednesday. Western
Europe is on the verge of collapse.
But while he agrees that the legis-
lative branch must have full facts
before 1t acts on the major part of
his economic plan, the Secretary of
State warned that Europe must
have the assurance of emergency
food and fuel supplies to allay Gin
tolerable hunger and cold" in the
next few months.
Control of Labor Is Question.
The question Senator Bridges and
his committee will want answered
is whether the governments of
Europe will be able to utilize Amer
ica's aid to the utmost, if the
people do dig into their
pockets for more money.
The men in office in London, Paris
and Rome are willing enough to
exert their full efforts, but the ques-
ton is whether they can control
labor. The occurrences of the past
week in Britain, France and Italy.
where communism has taken deep
root. lead to the belief that they
might not be able to do so. Trans
port workers, for instance, might
decide to stage a walkout at just
the time American relief is arriving.
The French and italian police
forces are believed to be inadequate
to cope with the forces controlled by
the Communists. The once-famous
Italian Carabinieri look helplessly
at the terroristic activities of the
Red militia. Neither, it Is feared,
is the French police force capable
Of opposing the secret Red army
in 1945 by the former
naval officer and Moscow puppet,
Comdr. Marty.
The problem before the Bridges
committee will be whether the gov
ernments which are asking for
economic assistance are
politically solvent.

answer Is very clear. Before he
sent that violent veto message, Mr..
Truman several times discussed the
situation with his cabinet.
The results were well known at
the time-and they have been
checked since. General Marshall
declined to express his views. At
torney General Clark, Interior Sec
retary Krug, Labor Secretary
Schwellenbach and Postmaster Gen
eral Hannegan strongly urged the
veto on political grounds. They
were supported by young Clark Cliff
ford, who though not in the Cabinet,
had considerable presidential in
f1uence and is understood to be
proud Of having written the mes
sage-though why he should be is
hard to understand.
The Messrs. Forrestal, Hartman
and Anderson just as strongly urged
Mr.. Truman to sign the bill, ex-
pressed the belief that it was a
sound and needed measure, that 1t
would be O. mistake to veto. In this
they were Joined by Secretary of
the Treasury Snyder and Secretary
Of War Patterson. Thus, Mr.. Tru-
man, unfortunately, took the advice
Of the least able minority of his
advisers, rejected that of the con-
cededly abler majority. The fact is
the majority of the Truman Cabinet
as well as a majority of the Demo-
Gratis in Congress, were for the bill
Silence on Big Issue.
Considering these things, it seems
somewhat absurd to project the
Messrs. Forrestal and Hartman as
running mates or Mr.. Anderson as
chairman. Of course, none of the
three will have any difficulty sup
porting Mr.. Truman for reelection
but all three are honest men in
capable of swallowing their words
or hypocritically changing their
position on question such as this.
They Of course can make speeches
urging Mr.. Truman.s election, but
they cannot make speeches tndors-
ing his veto of the Taft Hartley bill
nor can they, without stultifying,
themselves, denounce or urge re-
peal of the act. In brief they would
have to preserve a rather mortify-
ing silence on what certainly will
be one of the great issues of the
campaign. &,
And they would have to denounce
or urge Taft-Hartley repeal if they
were on the ticket or running the
campaign. The only alternative
would be an embarrassing silence
and a humiliating squirming, which
would make the campaign rather
devastating joke. Perhaps, Mr..
Truman's political advisers and
pipeline friends have not thought
of this phase of the Forrestal- -Harri-
man-Anderson boo:ns. They are
rather shortsighted and impulsive
men and not apt to think Of things
like that. But It would be exceed
ingly safe to bet the Republicans
have.
Asked directly whether they had
urged Mr. Truman not to veto the
Taft Hartley bill, neither Mr.. For
restal, Mr.. Hartman nor Mr.. An
derson, with full truth could an
swer mo" AND none of them
would unless their characters have
been very much misjudged. Any
how, the Republicans are all toe
anxious to get one or more Of them
in position where they pointedly
can ask the question-and refuse
to accept an evasive answer.

the United States Senate was con-

If President Truman had only
