the Presidents report will not make
Its own report until next January.
It's only report for the current year,
made in February, was a brief
statement to the general effect that
it had barely had time to organize
and that, in any case, Congress was
already up to its ears in the
various problems mentioned by the
President.
The joint committee, however,
under the Craftsmanship of Senator
Taft, held a number of hearings
this month. It is expected to hold
more during the vacation period.
During the same period its staff of
experts will be working. This staff
may or may not be able to prepare
q comprehensive legislative pro-
gram, as contemplated by the EN-
ployment Act, on which the joint
committee can agree. The joint
committee Is composed of Demo-
Gratis as well as Republicans. A
possible result is the preparation of
two reports, q minority ana ma
jority program.
Treatment Accorded Report.
The treatment accorded the Pres
ident,s report of last January makes
this seem more than q possibility.
The President recommended contin-
uance of existing taxes. Congress
voted otherwise, although defeated
by a veto. The President recon-
mended reduction of the public debt
as rapidly as possible. Congress has
co-operated, If you can call 1t that,
by slashing many of the Presidents
proposed expenditures and by fall
ing to override the tax veto.
The President recommended con-
tinuance of rent control and the
enactment of q comprehensive hous-
ing program. Congress virtually
abolished rent control and has de-
.ayed action on the housing program
The President proposed that the
wage minimum be increased and

Whites Dilemma
Senator Taft May Duck Fight That Could
Elevate Wherry to Majority Leadership

publicans believe q showdown is i'm
minent.
It is probable that Senator Taft
will try to avoid it. The Ohio Sen
ator, whose campaign for the presi-
dency is about to break into the
open, realizes that his chances in
that field are not too bright. If he
fails in his presidential bid, the next
best thing for him is the majority
leadership, especially If Gov. Dewey
moves into 1900 Pennsylvania
avenue.
Dark Horse May Win
But Senator Taft, as candidate
will be better of If he does not have
to acknowledge responsibility fol
everything the Republican Congress
does. AS he has done this session
he can get his own way with Senator
White holding the title of Senate
majority leader.
Senator Wherry's chances will be
notably improved should Senator
White decide to force the issue be-
fore next summer, and If Senator
Wherry is really his candidate fol
the job, that is what will happen.
Many Republicans make a wry
face over these developments. A
few think it Is an impossible situa-
ton which should be resolved quick
ly. A Taft-Wherry contest might
be close and bitter. Although most
of his colleagues respect Senator
Taft's brains and courage, his lack

band has to hide his face when he

After all, what does it matter if
there isn't a new track and field
record set for another 10-20-50- 100
years? Don't tell me that from the
ranks of athletes come the men who
save country in time Of peril. Oh,
no. I saw too many spindly- legged
guys, wearing glasses, moving toward
the front positions to believe that.
For every shot fired by an athlete
in World War II, one million were
fired by guys who couldn't Jump six
feet with running start.

leadership, but in private conversa-
tions he has been candid regarding
his unhappiness over the manner
in which he has been consistently
by-passed on the floor.
Senator Wherry, Mr.. White has
stated unequivocally, is his choice
for his successor.
Presidential politics is deeply In
volved In the party situation that
presents itself as Senator White
ponders the timing and method OF
his resignation from the post which
has brought him empty honor.
Prevented Scraps.
Last fall only the unwillingness
of the aging Maine Senator to take
leadership and so act as buffer
between Senators Taft and Wherry
prevented a healthy scrap. At the
time, Senator White appeared to be.
lieve that he had the strength and
prestige to mediate all differences
and route legislation according tc
his own plans.
He would, he said, depend on
committee chairmen to take charge
of their own bills while he watched
the floor. It has not worked out
that way. Senator Wherry. whip
and acting leader during Senator
Whites absences, has carried the
brunt of the floor work; Senator
Taft, the powerhouse Of Republican
policy, has sparked the legislation
At times 1t has seemed that Senator
White was left holding the printed
calendar.
Senator White is a quiet and pa
tient man hardly equal to the driv-
ing tempo Of the newly victorious
Republicans. but he is sensible and
experienced and realizes fully what
the score Is. Several times he has
almost made public complaint. His
attitude now Is such that many Re-
