The story of how and when
President Truman made up his
mind to extend U. S. recognition
TO the provisional government O1
Israel may not be known for a
long, long time.
There are two versions Of when
the decision was made. Presiden-
tial Press Secretary Charles G..
Ross called reporters into his Of
flee the Saturday morning follow
ing the exciting, surprising an
nouncement. The President, he
told the press, had decided several
days before to extend recognition
to the new Jewish state as soon as
It had been proclaimed. Matters
Of protocol prevented the Presi-
dent from moving before the letter
Of request had been received from
the Jewish Agency, however, he
said.
A radio cOlumnist, on the other
hand, reported the following night
that the decision had been made
the same day it was announced,
that it was the product in part
Of pressure that day from several
New York City Democratic lead
erS. The President decided at
lunch to recognize the new state,
the cOlumnist reported, hurriedly
cleared the decision with Secretary
Of State Marshall and Gen. John
Hilldring, new State Department
advisor on Palestine, and then had
White House aide Clark Clifford
phone the Jewish Agency to ask
Them to write the request letter.
How far between the two the
truth lies probably won't be known
until someone now close to the
White House writes his memoirs.

1900 Patronage Jobs
On Capitol Hill Due
TO Go 10 Democrats

approximately 1900 to 1900 pa
tronage jobs on Capitol Hill now
held by Republicans are expected to
go to good loyal Democrats in jan
uary when the new Congress takes
over.
The unexpected Democratic VIC
tory stunned Republican jobholders,
especially those in the House.
There had been considerable spec
ulation over possible Democratic
control of the Senate, but practically
nobody had any idea that the House
would be taken by the Democrats.
! Some of the strict patronage jobs
where personnel turnovers will oc-
cur include elevator operators
pages, policemen, various clerical
positions, sergeant at arms, door
keepers and many others.
Still to be answered is what will
happen to the professional staffs OF
the various Congressional commit
tees. Under the Congressional Re-
organization Act of 1916, these en-
ployes are supposed to be appointed
on a non-partisan basis, with NO
politics involved.
