his request 10 be heard. This is

refuge from one reporters prod

is hardly a responsive answer.
Bears Brunt Of Attack.
There has often arisen in these
situations widespread public
demand that Congressional COM
mittees obey all the rules OF EVIL
dence In use In United States
courts. In some quarters 1t is
feared that atomic witnesses will
not get the benefit OF that Ameri-
can spirit OF fair play because OF
present hysteria about the atomic
bomb.
Another noticeable aspect Of
the current hearings is that the
commission chairman is bearing
all the brunt Of the attack though
all major decisions must be made
by the five commissioners.
There was a rumor that for
mer commissioner, w. w. Way
mack, editor Of the Des Moines
Register and Tribune. who re-
Gently resigned. had inspired the
charges of his fellow Iowan. Sem

the fact and the Register. with
which Mr.. Waymack Is no longer
connected. has taken a very re-

Of the Atomic Energy Commission
put his amen to that. The chair

by the decision here Of Judge Al

On the Record
Italy Found UNNECESSARILY Closer
To Prewar Level Than in 1916

awakened-would you learn that
things are not quite as their
brilliant surfaces seem. But even
then you would know that Italy.
In 1949, is immeasurably more as
1t was before the war than as 1t
was In l945 and 1916.
Where, for instance. are the
wild youth depicted In the Italian
moving pictures we saw In Amer
lea. such as Shoe Shine? You

you they are now In homes. and
no longer much Of q problem.
Poverty Still Exists
But there is poverty in Italy. as
there always has been poverty in
Italy. much worse in some re-
gions than In others: worst Of all
In the south. The land problem
plaques modern Italy as it
plagued the Italy of the Caesars.
and In considering a land pro-
gram the present government dis
covered plans dating from 300
years ago! Reform lags. and
back Of the lag is the half-re-
signed knowledge that not all the
reform In the world can solve the
problem Of too many people in
too little space with too little
soil and too few resources.
The problems which have per-
ennially beset Italy thus perplex
the government Of the Italian re-
public, and are basically insoiuble.
The rich are too rich. and the
poor are too poor. No one really
knows, furthermore. just how rich
the rich are. because no Medi-
Iterranean peoples-neither the
italians, the Greeks. the French
lnor the Spaniards-ever properly
report for income taxes. The
great mass of people pay most Of
the taxes on moving goods, which
is entirely unjust, and generally
accepted.
! Income Spread As I'm q. 3.
The distribution Of income. ac-
cording to studies made outside
the government. and allowing for
these facts, Is almost exactly what
1t Is In the United States. But
since the total national income
/ is much smaller per capita. the
somewhat less than two-tilirds
which goes TO the 90 per cent is
immensely thinner: the one-tenth

The Republi- Lowell Meiiett,
cans continue to whoop up the
danger of communism as some
thing the Democrats are not COM
petent to deal with. They thought
that would be the winning issue
In 40. The fact that 1t turned
out not to be apparently has not
registered with them and they
are pressing 1t as earnestly as
ever.
The Democrats stick to labor
and farm legislation as their
prime appeals to the electorate.
There is no question in their
minds as to what brought them
back into power. In their purely
political moments they probably
are grateful to their opponents
for leaving these issues in their
hands. After five successful cam
paigns they think they know q
good issue when they see it.

the successful candidates are

to the battle In the House sew

Senator Thomas may know
nothing about politics, but the
fight he is now leading for the
repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act
is obviously the fight the master
