Response Surpasses Appeal

Because generosity in a community
is as admirable as in an Individual, New
Hanover county can take genuine pride
in it's answer to the annual financial
appeal of the American Red Cross.
According to latest reports, the
community surpassed its goal of S21,253
by $5,462 at the close of the drive YES
terday.
But this fine showing is more than
a matter of pride. It is the strongest
kind of endorsement of the good work
of the Red Cross, here and elsewhere
throughout the world. It is material
proof that our citizens are anxious to
do their share in making the organi-
z%ation's various humanitarian pro-
grams possible. And it is good to live
among those whose interest in the well
fare of others is so sincere that, when
they are asked to help, the response
surpasses the appeal.

that the council would have to d.
termine whether there actuaAy

He. Too, May Break A Tradition

one man in. one minute. That is the best
neighbor policy" said Ramon Ayala,
a prominent and wealthy engineer.
Mr.. Truman used his sincere humili.
ty for a tremendously dramatic and i'm
portant goodwill gesture. Others may
have tried to achieve the same good re-
suits with great oratory or other means
but he took one minute, a few steps
and a wreath to bring many a Mexi-
can to tears of joy.
The same day Mr.. Truman stepped
into the Sacred Cow" to head home
ward, Secretary of State Marshall
boarded another plane in Washington
to begin his trip to Moscow. On the eve
of his departure, Secretary Marshall
seemed optimistic but to the mar in
the street the Big Four ministers con-
ference appeared to be primarily an
other face-to-face argument with the
Russians.
Reaching the capital, the President
gave his Secretary of State something
that has been woefully lacking in past
similar situations. It was an opportuni-
ty to take the offensive through Mr..
Humans appeal for $500, DOC, 900 to
bolster a democratic frontier against
the immediate advances of communism
by assisting Greece and Turkey.
He, in effect, told the Soviet Union
that the United States has the money
and brains to call showdown.
The result is that Secretary Mar
shall was given q advantageous posi-
ton. A military man, he knows the best
defense is a strong ~offense, either on
the battlefield Or at the peace table.
And this is the attitude he has shown
constantly in Moscow.
Thus, Mr.. Truman has quietly been
the principal leader in effecting n
domestic and two foreign situations and
people have been wanting for a long
time.
He has a weapon-a Congress with
a mind to approve continuing Presi-
dental powers to seize struck property,
thereby utilizing the Supreme court de-
cision-to make Mr.. Lewis behave.
He has brought relations between
the United States and Mexico to the
most favorable stage in years.
He has shown he is ready to call
Russias hand if such is needed.
We believe it is appropriate to re-
mind those Democrats still worried
over the results of last Falls elections
that the Republicans, according to
Gallup poll results disclosed earlier this
month, have fallen to second place in
U. S. favor. The GOP-dominated Con-
gress has simply failed to deliver the
goods.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Truman forces
ahead on his strong recuperative pow
ers.
President Roosevelt shattered tradi-
ton with more than two terms in the
Presidency. Mr.. Truman may blast an
other one calling for defeat of a party
IN a Presidential election after it runs
second best in the Congressional vote
two years previously.
The normal, in view of recent events,
appears to be: Don't sell Mr.. Truman
short.
