WASHINGTON, - Republican pc
%litical leaders would probably be
the last to admit it, but the
record of the Congressional ses
sion just ended shows the COP ha!
a New Deal all its own.
The Democratic New Deal tina
was born and died with Roosevelt
developed some very specific OBJ
|jectives. In simplest terms they
were to raise the standard OF liv'
ing for the bne-third of the popula'
ton supposed to be ill-paid, il-fec
and ill-housed. All this came to be
identified as a ''pro-labor" pro-
gram, though it was nor thar
that. 1t was a social welfare pro
gram for all low-income groups.
When the voters in 1946 kicked
out liberal majorities in Congress.
the conservatives of both parties
took it as a mandate to substitute
a social reform program Of theil
own making.
This program has not yet beer
carried out in full. 1t will take
another session Of Congress to de
that. But its broad outline
emerged in the 1947 Congress. II
does not quite repeal the Demo.
cratic New Deal, but it changes il
beyond recognition.
These seem to be its main
points:
The Social Security system hal
been frozen as is until 1850, both
as to deductions and benefits. The
law called for its expansion.
For the unorganized poor the
Republicans propose a health pro.
gram to be financed by fedora
tax money grants-in-aid to the
states. Local health offices woule
have the responsibility of paying
hospital and doctor bills for PEG
pie who could not afford to pay
their own.
This same procedure of giving
authority to the states is proposed
in the Republican aid to education
program. What this trend nipple!
is that the Republican Party is
becoming the champion OF states
rights.
While Republican Senator Taft
in collaboration with Democratic
Senators Wagner and Ellender. l.

Mrs. Truman

The big heart of America goes forth
in deepest sympathy to President Tru-
man in the loss of his mother, who ex-
pired in her sleep while the Chief
Executive was en- route to her bedside
by plane.
Among Mr.. Truman's finest at
tributes is the simple, filial care he took
of her, presumably throughout his
earlier life (of which the people knew
littIe) but especially after she fell and
fractured a hip Oil February 10 when.
because of the high position to which
Harry" had risen, public attention
centered in her little home in Grand
view, Mo.
During these intervening months,
while the valiant little woman battled
for life with amazing vitality and de-
termination, despite her ninety-four
years, Mr.. Truman had been with her
as often as the responsibilities of his
office permitted. When word reached
him that she could hardly survive an
other day he was in the air as quickly
as his plane could be serviced.
Although he failed to reach her be-
fore the end, it was characteristic of
his Astounding affection and solicitude
that his first words, upon receiving
the message of her death were: "She
won't have to suffer any more"
Today, the First Mother will be laid
to rest. The funeral rites are to be pri-
vate. There will be NO flowers. A griev-
ing family wishes to be alone, to share
a loss the members alone can appraise.
But while the nation may not know the
depth of the sorrow Mr.. Truman and
others in the family are undergoing. it
is stirred to pay tribute to the woman
whom Senator Barley declared zone
of the finest characters in the history
of the United States - a simple Amer
ican," and offers its condolences.
