great strain for the last 10 years, it j!
possible that his doctors will advise
him to take long rest. so long, In
fact, that he may feel that he should
ask President Truman to find q
successor for him.
These are the factors behind the
present rumors being circulated In
Washington that the Chief Execu-
tive is looking for a replacement
for the Secretary of State.
In some quarters close to the
White House it is believed that Mr.
Truman, whose great trust IN ard
fondnesS for Gen. Marshall are well
known, is so reluctant to let him GO
that he may replace Undersecretary
Lovett with some one more accept
able to the liberals around him
and let that person rule the State
Department as long as the doctors
require that Gen. Marshall rest.
Hoover Predicament Recalled.
Ever since President Truman was
reelected, the king makers" ir
Washington have speculated on the
makeup Of the Presidents new
cabinet and number of names have
been advanced as likely successors
for Gen. Marshall.
The fact is that the President has
not at any time had the idea of re-
placing the Secretary Of State, not
only because of his high personal
regard for the former Army Chief o1
Staff, but also because he does moi
believe any of the candidates men.
toned would fit well into the present
picture.
President Truman is said to be
in the same predicament as Presi-
dent Hoover was in 1928. when he

veteran of the State Department,
for his opinion. Mr.. Castle read
the list and pointed to the name
of Henry L. Stimson, whom Mr..
Hoover knew only slightly. When
Mr.. Hoover asked Mr.. Castle wheth-
er he knew Mr.. Stimson well, Mr..
Castle is said to have replied: II

Welles Urged as Undersecretary.
Among the many persons suggest
ed to President Truman as success
sor to Gen. Marshall are Supreme
CourC Justice William Douglas;
Lewis Douglas. American Ambassa-
dor to Britain, and w. Avesell
Hartman, special ERP ambassador
None seems to appeal to the Chief
Executive.
The choice of q new Undersecre-
tary would be somewhat easter. In
this connection the name of Sumner
Welles, Undersecretary Of State dur
ing the Roosevelt administration
until October, 1943, is being pre-
sented by some of the former diplo-
mats friends.
MIR. Welles is regarded generally
as probably the ablest diplomat we
have had in the State Department
in the last 20 years. He has a
thorough knowledge of European,
Latin American and Far Eastern af-
fairs and was the mainstay of the
department in the difficult years
between 1887 and 1943, when he
was forced out of the department
by intrigues.
Views Vindicated.
Although we'll to do and career
diplomat with a conservative back
ground, he is nevertheless strong
liberal and asfaithful follower Of the
New Deal in domestic matters. But
he has opposed some of the admin
istration's foreign policies since leav-
ing the State Department, particu-
larly our short-sighted attitude to-
ward Argentina. His views are now
being fully vindicated.
Mr.. Welles' long experience and
his success in the various missions
abroad entrusted to him by Presi-
dent Roosevelt are said to have
drawn him to President Truman's
attention as a possible successor to
Mr.. Lovett and as top administra-
tor in the State Department while
Gen. Marshall enjoys long and
well-deseryed rest.

On the Other Hand
Bipartisan Unity Following Election
Is Proving Very Impressive, But

And on Saturday night Gov.
Dewey himself is coming to Wash
ington to share in, and take his
share of, the kidding Of the Grid
iron Club, shoulder-to shoulder with
the President.
Unity, we got it.
No ifs or ands about 1t. Just
maybe one little but. The but
arises from something that the in
coming Vice President said to those
Democrats in Los Angeles.
The people of this Nation" he
said, have a right to expect that
the legislative and executive
branches will carry out in good faith
the pledges they have made to the
people"
Celebrating on this. he said that
not one of the planks in the party's
campaign platform was written
merely for the purpose Of getting
votes; the convention which adopted
that platform meant every word 1t
said"
Come to think of it, that did seem
to be the spirit In which the plat
form was evolved at Philadelphia.
Senator Barkley's assertion brings
back a picture of the proceedings in
the Bellevue-Stratford penthouse
where the members Of the Resolu-
tions Committee fought the issues
out in day-long and night-long ses-
sions. The hot and disheveled dele
gates were in earnest then. Their
disputes were concerned with the
issues, not with weasel words. And,
even more convincing, when the
Resolutions Committee, out Of sheer
exhaustion, did attempt to compro-
mise on the flaming civil rights
question. the convention itself rolled
up a decisive majority for forth
right declaration on the subject.
Since the election there has been
much discussion of the Taft-Hart-
ley Act. Forgetting that the Pres
ident in more than one speech de-
clared himself for the outright re-
peal of, the new labor law and that
many of the successful candidates
for Congress did the same. 1t Is
being suggested that repeal isn't
necessary, that some slight amend-
ment will suffice. The suggestion
comes chiefly from those who op-
posed the Presidents election.
I'VE are committed to repeal" !"
said Senator Barkley, "and to me
that doesn't mean amendment"
We got unity, but. 3.

before the battle was over, many OF
our public pundits continue to tell
him what to do, how to be salts
factory President. They indicate
the measures required to make this
happy Nation and their willing
ness to compromise with him on any
points of difference. Some are even
willing to compromise on a 60-4C
basis; go per cent their way, 40 pei
cent his. Which is really going
pretty far, considering how thor
oughly they had convinced them

Yale Canvasses Country
For Col. Trumbull Canvas

A nationwide hunt for the paint
1ngs Of John TrunbuI, visual re-
corder of the American Revolution,
has been instituted by a Yale pro-
fessor.
Theodore Sizer, professor Of the
history of art at Yale, issued the
call for information about the
Trunbull paintings in the "Ya1e
University Library Gazette. The
first such request for assistance
was made by Professor Benjamin
Siliman, I'd, in 1882 in the "Ameri-
can Art Review.
Sizer, working under a Guggen-
helm fellowship, is a noted authori-
ty on the ''patriot-artiSt''. He has
compiled the first thorough check
list of Trumbull's works, and the
recent acquisition by the Yale IL
brary Of Trumbull's notebook, con-
tanning a list of the artists earlier
works, has encouraged Sizer to
seek elsewhere for further informa-
ton.
Col. Trumbull was responsible
for the design Of the original Yale
Gallery, the first such art museum
in the United States connected with
an educational institution. The pur-
pose of the search is to complete
check list of his works and discover
their location.
Col. Trumbull's paintings are
richly stepped in the tradition of
Yale, New Haven and Connecticut,
as we'll as the revolutionary period.
According to Prof. John Marshall
Phillips, director of the Yale art
gallery, the artist seemed to have
a faculty for appearing on the
scene of action just as history was
being made. He, therefore, gave
the U. S. many pictorial records,
otherwise unobtainable, of this
country's early background.
