PHILADELPHIA man could
get only one ovation like that in
lifetime.
1t was the kind Of ovation that
people give to q leader who has
won and lost for them in the past,
whom they have passed by for the
new leader with the new prospect
of victory.
There is . strange music in the
LOYALTY Of massed human voices.
And it must have been nostalgia
music indeed to former President
Hoover last night as he stood on the
platform and heard the Republican
National Convention explode in trib-
ute to him.
It must have carried him back
across the years on a bridge Of tur-
bulent sound to 1928 and the swelter-
ing summer when he was first nomi-
mated in Kansas City.
But he didn't show it. As he
walked to the speakers stand, he
suddenly caught the conventions
heart with his familiarity. This was
the same Hoover of yore, back per-
haps for his sVan song at party
convention, for he is 73. The old
high collar was gone, but the neat
blue double breasted suit and the
simple tie were there. His hair was
whittier and thinner, the cherubic
face q bit wrinkled-but they were
only the authentic stamps OF his
role as elder statesman.
Human Symbol of Party.
To the Republican delegates as
he stood there waiting to speak he
was q human symbol of their party
unchanged in principle by either
defeat or victory. He stood for win
ming and losing, but they let him
know their pride in him.
The ovation began with the sud-
denneSs of q flash flood. 1t started
on the convention floor and swept
through the galleries in a crashing
mass of sound.
1t seemed to catch Mr. Hoover, the
only living former President, by sur.
prise. AS the entire convention
leaped to its feet in q tempest oi
cheers and waving banners, he stooc
uncertainty. half-squinting his blus
eyes In the glare of the bright no
lights.
The sound beat around him lik,
crashes of tremendous surf, HI

cheered and Gov Green held ~
Mr.. Tunney's right hand.
The last time I saw him" said
the cynic, he was . Democrat"
Among the many celebrities taking
the rostrom at the convention before
Mr.. Hoover, the only one to draw
shouts Of I'VE want more" from the
audience, was Gladys swarthout, ths
beautiful mezzo-soprano who sang
last night.
Miss Swarthout had left the rest
Of her music at home and had to
decline the invitation to continue.
She seemed rather embarrassed. One
thing Is sure-none of the speakers
had even come close to being EN-
barrassed that way. 80 '1

The Question as to whether the
convention will start balloting TO-,
night is theoretically supposed to
be bound up in high considerations
OF strategy. Everybody seems con-,
vinced the balloting will be put
over to tomorrow. If 1t Is think
one big reason for the decision win
be . lot simpler than those 20 far
discussed by the political analysists
here. ,.
The delegates, just like you and
me, don't want to miss that tight.
Every day, the crowds here get
more fantastic. Walking along the
street, you feel perpetually like
somebody trying to get into a ball
park just after the game has broken
up. The traflc Is an unholy mess.
They keep making more streets one
way, but the cars choke them up
just the same.
Yesterday had special excuse for
being a bad trafic day, because some
native Philadelphian's called Mum
mers" chose it as q fitting time to
put on one of their periodic frolics
at the Municipal Stadium. .
Between the local populace trying
to get to the stadium and the out
of-towners trying to get to Conven-
ton Hall. the city was nearly torn
apart. a
The focal center of this Philadel.
phia ant hill, of course, Is the Belle
vue Stratford Hotel. convention
headquarters. No matter what floor
you want to get to, you can get there
faster at almost any hour Of the day
by walking than by waiting for an
elevator. In the lobby. loudspeaker
keeps telling people to stay away
from the elevator doors. If they
once get packed around there, no-
body can get either OF or on the
cars.
The hotel staff Is bearing up
bravely, but its nerves are frayinE
q little more each day. Two cham.
bermaids, resting on their mope,
talked it over in the hall outside my
room yesterday.
II hear they're leaving Friday"
one said. ="
GLORY be to God" said the other.

by the Arlington County School

the power to endanger not only
the health and welfare of our own
people, but freedom Of the world,
by halting or paralyzing the econo-
mic life of this Nation. Such men
have not been elected by the people
to have such powers. Representative
Government must be master In its
own house, or 1t will perish. We
fought that battle out once with
arrogant businessmen. We can no
more have economic tyranny, If
freedom is to live, than We can
have political tyranny. There are
other ways for determining eco
nomic justice than war on our
people.
Nor does the battle for freedom
all lie beyond our borders. We also
have been infected with the Euro
pean intermittent fever of creep
ing totalitarianism. 1t has been =
mingling of germs from Karl Marx
and Mussolini, with cheers from the
Communists. This collectivism has
slowly inserted its tentacles into our
labor unions, our universities, cur
intelligentsia and our Government.
Our difficulty lies not so much
with obnoxious Communists in our
midst as with the fuzzy minded
people who think we can have to-
talitarian economics In the hands
of bureaucracy and at the same
time have personal liberty for the
people and representative Govern
ment in the Nation. Their con-
fused thinking convinces them that
they are iberals-but II they are
liberals they have liberalism with
out liberty. Nor are they middle Of
the e-roaders as they claim to be;
they are . halfway house to to-
talitarianism.
They should note that in every
one of the countries Of Europe
where 400,000,0O0 people are now
enslaved by the Communists, it has
been the totalitarian liberals who
provided the ladders upon which
the Communist pirates have boarded
the ship of state.
Sees Turn Two YeAfS ago.
The whole world was steadily
moving along these collectivist roads
until two years ago. Then in our
congressional elections, by their
votes for both the Republican and
Democratic candidates, the people
showed the first turn from collec-
tivism made by an important ma
ton in recent years.
The 30O-year-old roots Of free
dom in America showed their re-
sistance to the collectivist blight.
The influence of our rebirth of lib
erty has now echoed throughout the
world. But the battle Is still on.
The deep soil Of these 3o0-year-
old roots Is the spiritual concept
that the rights of man to freedom

Of economics knows that, in the long
run, such tax will be passed on to
the consumer, provided we want to
maintain our real wages and great
tools of production. Surely any
American would seem to have
right to aspire to the income of a
United States Senator-less taxes,
If the remaining untaxed income
above that level were completely
confiscated, the take would provide
only ~ per cent of the budget.
Other Warning Signs Cited.
There are other warning signs.
Our reputed prosperity has begun to
walk on two stills: One is the
forced draft Of exporting more than
our surplus through relief, the other
is q great armament program. We
cannot go higher on these stills, or
we will break a leg getting down.
We should have no illusions. To
the devastating Four Horsemen OF
the Apocalypse, modern civilization
has added two more. They are high
taxes and imitation. They are
close by.
Therefore. with full compassion
for those nations in difficulties, Ger
tain matters in aid to them must
be recognized on both sides of the
world.
Our task is solely to aid their
reconstruction. We can provide only
bare necessities. There is no room
for nonessentials, profgacy, or in
efficiency.
We must not create 4 perpetual
dependence of Europe and Asia
upon us. We must not soften their
preparedness to meet their own
dangers. Otherwise our sacrifices
will only undermine their self
reliance and the contribution they
must make themselves towards the
saving of Western Civilization.
We must insist that reconstruc-
ton Of Western Europe be as q
whole. That must include the re-
storation of the productivity of
Germany, or Europe will die. We
need neither forget nor condone
Nazi guilt, but free world must not
poison its concepts Of life by &C
cepting malice and hatred as a
guide. Otherwise, not only will our
efforts fail, but the American tax
payer will be bled white supporting
an idle and despairing German
people.
And If we are to carry these bur-
dens of relief and armament. we
must have uninterrupted operation
Of the major tools Of production
and distribution among all the
participating nations.
We In America must face the
fact that no citizen, or group OF
citizens, in the republic can assume
