AltruiSm in Election
Truman Win in Kentucky Seen Likely,
Cooper's Senate Seat Believed Safe

Truman and the party nationally
very seriously indeed; probably he
has made more speeches than any
one else. Because the National
Committee has worked him so hard
he has been able to take less part
within his own State, where Rep
resentative Chapman's nomination
is so displeasing to many Demo
Gratis.
With Senator Barley on the
ticket, the President will carry Ken
|tucky. Had Senator Barley thrown
his great weight enthusiastically be-
hind Representative Chapman, Ken
lucky, which like Washington loves
Its senior Senator dearly. would
probably have sent the Congress
man along with them.
But Senator Cooper's chances now
look bright. Nor does he owe every.
thing to being fortunate in his oppo-
nent. Tall and personable, he has
an excellent record in the Senate
and, above all, his character COM
mands respect and affection. He is
obviously fit to stand with Senator
Barkley and carry on, in the Repub-
Ilican sector, the Barkley tradition
of leadership.
Dewey Needs Cooper.
Perhaps no other incumbent run
ming carries with him so many good
wishes for success from his coll
leagues on both sides of the aisle.
1t is an unusual achievement for q
freshman Senator.
Gov. Dewey needs Senator Cooper
to bulwark that small collection of
progressive Senators. including
Lodge, Knowland, Baldwin, Aiken
and others, on whom he must de-
pend when the honeymoon Is over
with Senator Robert Taft and his
ilk.
Why, with so formidable an op-
ponent In the cards, did the Dem
ocrats nominate the party hack,
Representative Chapman? Demo-
Gratis answer that Governor Glenn
ents is responsible; that he had had
favors when young and needy from
Representative Chapman and in
terpreted Mr.. Chapman's ambition
as call upon his loyalty to which
he must respond.

that the unfortunate plan to send
a special representative to talk mat
ters over with Prime Minister Stain
had been definitely sheived and that
the whole matter would not be
brought up again.
Gen. Marshall thought that the
facts he laid before the Chief Exec
utive were sufficient to convince
President Truman that nothing
could be gained by this direct and
unilateral approach to the Russian
dictator. On his return to Paris
Gen. Marshall is reported to have
given the British and French posi-
tive assurances that such unfortu-
nate occurrences would not be re-
peated.
Stirs British and French.
The Secretary of State believed
that he had made clear not only
that sending an emissary to Mos
COW would harm the already
difficult Western harmony, but also
that there was no assurance that
the Kremlin would receive a special
emissary from Washington, since no
prior approaches had been made to
Moscow on the matter.
But the Secretary of State was
greatly surprised and annoyed when
his advisers in Paris informed him
during his short trip to Rome that
Mr.. Truman had revived the idea
of a direct approach in a speech
in the South last week. It is true
that the President did not say any
thing about sending a special am
bassador to Moscow, but he indi-
Gated that he continued to cherish
the idea.
This created a commotion among
the British and French. Although

they pointed out angrily that such

= Addressing the New Jersey

Charles M. Brooks NLRB as
sociate general counsel, assured
employers that General Counsel
Robert Denham will insist upon
a new union shop election every
time a union wished to renew a
pre-Taft-Hartley union security
contract.
Brooks said tn t Denham
maintains that an NLRB poll
must be taken before a union
shop contract is valid, and that
the same provisions applies to
maintenance of m m b ership
clauses.
However, Denham has said,
Brooks revealed, that once the
authority to negotiate a security
clause is granted, it remains in
effect until revoked under the
Act or until a particular union
is displaced as the bargaining
agent.

a sudden spate of military spending
could bring about ruinous initiation.
AS a result, talk of reviving the
defunct OPA was being heard in
Washington. Baruch's warning
touched off informal discussions in
congress about the possibility of re-
viving wage-price controls, rationing
and other curbs on the domestic
economy.
This, of course, had been an in
tegral part of President Truman's
famous 10-point program against in
flation which he proposed last year,
but most congressman virtually had
gagged at the thought of reinposing
price and wage controls, and the
President was accused of trying to
set up something like a police
state
Now, however, congressman were
not so sure. They were beginning
to wonder if the military spending
necessary to contain Russia might
not have to be buttressed by con-
trolls at home.

TO WALLACE:
Yelled Hint

Henry Wallace, whose third party
movement was coming more and
more to follow the standard Com.
munist party line, had reached the
status Of complete pariah as far
as President Truman was concerned.
In his st. Patrick's day address
In New York the President had re.
jected angrily any notion of accept
ing Wallace's support in his cam
paign, even If it cost him the cleo
ton.
Then, during the course Of re-
marks made at dinner meeting Of
Greek-Americans in Washington,
Mr.. Truman turned on still more
heat.
He issued an acidulous, thinly
yelled suggestion that Wallace take
his third party movement to Russia
where Mr.. Truman obviously thinks
it belongs.
II was going to tell you that the
Greeks had Henry Wallace" the
President said to his listeners. II
was going to tell you that the Greeks
had statesman, an orator, dema-
gogue. They had the greatest
demagogue Of all times, Alcibiades."
(Alcibiades was a famous Atheni.
an who, after committing certain
indiscretions, was forced to flee
Athens. He went to Sparta and
there betrayed secrets Of his coun-
trymen which were instrumental in
bringing about the fall of Athens.)
Mr.. Truman continued: IF imi-
tators Of that ancient Greek con-
queror want to see liberties
subverted, suggest that they 60 not
to the Rocky mountains-that's fine
country out there. He ought to 60
to the country he loves so well and
help them against his own country
If that's the way he feels"

PIPELINE:
.Tunked

The Canol pipeline, that 140-mil-
lion-dollar project constructed dur
ing the war as means of getting
an emergency oil supply from Nor
man wells in Northwest Canada to
Alaska, is ending in the junk yard.
All that is left of it now is being
trucked out for shipment to junk
dealers in the Midwest United States.
Fifty trucks work night and day out
of Johnson's Crossing on the Alaska
highway hauling salvage.
A large part of the equipment
used for the Canol line was pur-
chased by Houston. Tex, oil COM
pany. and it recently was dispatched
from Skagway for Gulf of Mexico
port. Six additional ships will be
required to carry the balance of the
accumulated material from the.
pipeline project.
