On the Other Hand
Republicans Now Have Task of
Defending Record of Congress

quently suggested-since the new law
made him first In the line of success
sion to the presidency-he should
emerge from a dead-locked conven-
ton as the party's nominee, his case
will be different. What he can de-
fend in his home district will not be
SO easy to defend in the country at
large. "'' -'''' .
Balance Not Achieved.
Senator Taft knows this. Nobody
in Washington really believes he is
satisfied with the .party's Congress
sional performance. Some who know
him well say his September tour to
the coast has been planned not so
much to line up supporters for his
candidacy as to find out for himself
what people truly think Of the Re-
publican performance. For all his
hard work and his real influence, it
did not turn out to be the per-
formance he had in mind when he
stepped confidently into the leader
ship last winter.
The things that business wanted.
tax reduction, labor legislation and
elimination of controls, were to be
balanced by legislation to promote
social welfare in one way and an
other. The balance never was ach-
ieved. Scarcely a beginning was
made in matters such as housing
health and education. Congress,
especially the House. prodded by
active lobbies, was too occupied in
meeting the desires Of special busi-
ness groups.
No, the record of the first session
Is not much to Senator Taft's liking
but, Omar Notwithstanding, Mr.. Taft
probably feels that the Moving
Finger can be lured back, in the
second session, to cancel more than
half line of it.

Kickoff Thursday
Taft to Launch Campaign in Ohio;
Speeches Will Point to G. O.P. Record

ready to welcome a fresh and spir-
tied dark horse.
The answer of the Taft camp Is
that Harold Stassen has notably
failed to break the ITS Dewey, o1
course" psychology that perme.
ates the situation, so now Others
must try. Approvingly they are
calling attention to Mr.. Stassen's
latest tries-his attack on New York
as a hotbed of Communism about
which the Governor ought to do
more and his disavowal OF any will
ingness TO- run on thes ticket with
Gov. Dewey.
Core of Senator Taft's hopes are
the favorite sons In q dozen States,
including all the pivotal ones. So
long as no break appears In this
lineup: they will contend that Gov.
Dewey can be stopped.

The first thing told her was
this: MY wife is going with me, and
we will be together a great deal OF
the time, so break the lessons in two
parts" In other words, I told Mrs
Parker, there was no use for both
of us to learn the Spanish words
for cold and hot, or for boy and
chicken. Teach Jean one half OF
the Spanish and teach me the other
half"
So we started learning Spanish
that way. I don't know what hot Is
In Spanish, but Jean does. She
doesn't know what lima beans are,
but I do. She has no idea how to
tell an attractive Spanish girl that
she must not make eyes at me be-
cause I am with my wife, any more
than I have any idea how to tell a
senior who Is making pitch at my
beloved to get away from us.
Learn Twice as Fast.
My idea was q great idea. We
learned twice as fast as the aver
age couple. The only thing that is
worrying us is what will happen to
us If we have a fight In South
America and are separated. She will
not be able to take q cold bath be-
cause I'm in charge Of the cold

amount OF OF" Ootn 3eesva'
ganization he will need and whether
it is now time to select a manager.
These questions will be discussed
during the Ohio clambake. It is gen.
orally expected that Representative
Clarence Brown, of Ohio, who effec-
lively managed the 46 congressional
victory for the Republicans, will
have the refusal at least of the job
of master -minding Taft's '46 bid.
Speeches No Problem.
Senator Taft's speeches will not
be a problem for him since he pro-
poses to stand on what Congress has
just done. All of it he saw, most of it
he dictated. The requests for his
appearance have been pouring in in
a satisfactory manner and he mas
a choice of dignified forums befitting
his type of intellectual appeal. At
Santa Cruz, for example, he will
address the State bar.
His hackers hope that Senator
Taft's courage and candor will fur
nish an effective contrast to the
folksy visiting and smile-and-say-
nothing technique followed by Gov.
Dewey on his trip West.
For his part Mr.. Taft expects to
find out how popular and how well
understood both that record and
Senator Taft are. For the past seven
years he has more or less allowed
his political contacts to lapse. Fol-
lowing his defeat in 40 he bowed out
in favor of the then Gov. Bricker
of OhioAwl1o on Thursday Is due
to return the favor-and devote him
self to the Senate.
AS a result he needs to make
a lot of new friends among the peo-
pie who carry the keys to the court
houses.
Eyebrows Raised.
There is some eyebrow raising here
at the rush of all the leading Repub-
lican, contenders to put their goods
in the show window so far in ad-
vance of the nominating convention.
People will be fed up with all of
them by next June, it is argued, and

street, watchful lest q stray sus-
picion pick them of.
And some Of the investigators are
not getting away. Those three men,
bers of the House, for example, who
thought this would be good time
to tour Russia and find out for
themselves what goes on behind the
iron curtain. The Soviet Embassy,
having communicated with the
home government, blandly reported
that the shortage Of hotel accom-
modation was such that visas
couldn't be given their passports
Which doubtless proves all the Con-
gressmen wanted to know, anyhow.
s1,o72,0oo in Probes.
Altogether, however, there will be
81 ,o72 900 worth Of investigations or
at least, Investigations costing that
much-which may not be quite the
same thing. Only part Of these in
vestigations will be abroad. Prices
housing, agriculture and labor
among other things, will be investi-
gated here at home. And the in
vestigation of how two or the Demo
cratic Senators happened to get
elected, will continue.
So 1t will be until the opening OF
the second session of this 80th Con-
gress. How we'll the members met
their responsibilities in the first ses-
sion will be a matter for argument
until next election day. 1t has been
great Congress thus far, II you
can believe the Republican leaders;
a terrible Congress, If you prefer to
believe the Democratic leaders. But
the record has been made. As Omar
Khayyam might tell it
The moving finger writes; and,
having writ,
Moves on: Nor all Taft's piety nor
Joe Martins wit
Shall lure 1t back to cancel
half a line,
Nor ali their tears wash out a
word Of 1t.
The truth that must be told Is that
the Republican leaders are not toe
happy over the record Just completed
no matter how piously Senator Taft
may explain it or how cheerfully
Speaker Martin may laugh 1t of
Mr.. Martin may think they have
made good enough campaign medi'
cine for next years election. In

This Changing World
u. S. May Be FORCED to Use Troops
To Back Up Commitment to Greece

for any reason the United Nations
proves impotent in this critical Sit
uation, MrTsaldaris has made it
clear that Greece will have to take
stronger action OF its own accord,
perhaps requesting that more than
half of the American loan of $780,
0O0, 900 be allocated to military pur-
poses in connection with an increase
In the Greek army to 100000 men.
If these measure prove inadequate
200, 900 men are a mere handful
against the resources of the Soviet
satellites-the question will arise as
to what further steps can be taken
to meet the Communist threat. It
is at that point that the question of
sending American troops to Greece
may arise-if some strong action by
the Soviet bloc does not precipitate
q greater crisis before then.
U. s. People Must Decide
The American people will have to
decide at that time whether they
will cast the die in favor of holding
Greece as a bastion for Western de-
mocracy-although the Greek gov
ernment itself, at some time in the
past, has fallen short of the stand
ards which the Western democracies
set for themselves.
The true question will not be
as some misguided commentators in
this country continue to insist-tne
character Of the internal regime in
Greece. Those who deplore Ameri-
can aid to what they consider an
unregenerate and dictatorial mon
archy completely ignore the real
question and ,becloud the entire
discussion.
What is at stake in Greece for us
is not an internal regime to which
we are any way attached, but a
strategic situation which we cannot
permit to get out Of our hands
Greece is on one flank Of Soviet
campaign to envelope the continent
Of Europe. 1t is the key not only
to the Mediterranean but to the At
lantic, as well. If Greece is lost,
nothing can save Italy, France and
eventually Spain and Portugal. If
all Europe goes Communist-and the
issue is still in the balance in France
and Italy-what will England have
to do? More to the point. what will
we have to do to protect ourselves?
The question Of sending troops
to Greece is not yet matter OF dis
cussion, but the possibility must be
envisaged, 1t must be discussed from
all angles. and when the decision
becomes necessary, we must be able
to make up our minds promptly and
accurately, for if another war does
come it will be for the greatest
stakes in history-a world Of free
dom or a world of totalitarianism
Evening star., 1947-07-29


during which he established contact
not only with high oficials Of the
State Department, but also with
some Democratic and Republican
leaders in Congress.
/ Although it was denied on oil
sides that Mr.. Tsaldaris had even
mentioned the question Of American
troops being sent to Greece, he did
in a carefully worded interview
leave the way open for such a re-
quest, depending on how serious
matters become for the Greek gov
ernment.
Serious Implications.
The matter Of q new American
expeditionary force on foreign soil is
so full of serious implications that
the question cannot be approached
lightly or frivolously, but it is a
matter to which the American Gov
ernment-and the American people
eventually may have to address
their attention, and it Is q matter
which will require the most frank
and fortnight discussion.
Mr.. TsaIdaris made 1t very clear
that stronger action Is becoming
daily more necessary. Some time
this week the United Nations Secu-
rity Council will have before it for
a vote the American resolution to
establish a permanent border COM
mission in Greece, which will be able
to tell the world accurately whether
the Greek guerrillas are operating
from the territory OF Greece's neigh
bors and how much help they are
getting there.
Russia has an opportunity tc
veto the plan, thus preventing the
United Nations from performing its
basic function of keeping peace. OF
it can abstain from voting and count
on its satellites to refuse to coop
crate with the border watch. II
