Congress, Here Despite Dire Prophecies
Has Voted Much of Truman's Program

affairs, President Truman has got
results in Congress on such meas
ures as previously have been pos
sible only in times of emergency
on the domestic front.
President Truman's record
speaks for itself. A long-range
housing bill denied so long by
Congress. Increase in the statu-
tory minimum wage, now in the
stage of final enactment. A Fed
eral aid to education bill passed
by the Senate and waiting in the
House urtil a religious controversy
over it is adjusted. Completion by
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee of a comprehensive meas
ure to extend coverage of the
Social Security Act and increase
benefits. long sought, which is
ready for action at the next ses-
sion. Public hearings and OPEN
ing of national debate on Presi-
dent Truman's health insurance
program. Revision of the Republi-
can farm program soon to be
completed, though not to the ex-
tent of the Brannan Plan which,
however, is still being pressed on a
wide front and kept alive as an
issue for the future.
President Truman's technique
has been very simple. He just
kept plugging, telling the public
about his program from time to
time and its situation in Congress,
nudging his leaders at the Capitol,
pressing steadily, and completely
confident, He just kept saying
that Congress was going to stay
here until it got something done
about his program, and here Con-
gress still is.

This Changing World
Soviet Abrogation of Yugoslavian Pact
To Set Pattern for Satellite Nations

The overwhelmingly apparent
fact in Yugoslavia's conflict with
Russia now is the steady flow of
preparations for things to come.
The groundwork is constantly be-
ing laid for the showdown which
both sides regard as inevitable at
some point along the line.
The disturbing fact-and it must
be regarded as highly disturbing
is that Russia fatty refuses to
let Yugoslavia alone, and permit
her to go her way alone-or in
the company of the Western
democracies-if she so desires.
Each new action Russia takes
is designed to provoke reaction
against Marshal Tito within his
own country and to demonstrate,
in increasingly antagonistic fash
ion. Russia's growing hatred for
her former ally.
Like Reformed Gangster.
Yugoslavia is like a gangster
who has decided to quit the mob
and go straight. He finds him.
self so deeply involved that his
former pals can only liquidate him
to keep his mouth shut.
Marshal Tito and his whole
government know much more
about the Soviet conspiracy
against the West than they have
revealed up to this point. The
Kremlin masters are aware Of
this, and fear that If Tito's crowd
ever decided to blow the top off of
Russia's planning for world con-
quest they could do so.
Those disclosures will be made
to the West as Yugoslav ties with
the West are frightened and as
Tito acquires greater confidence
in the aims of the West and we
gain greater confidence in his
association with us.
Meanwhile, Russia is impelled,
by the very fact of Ifto's former
association with her-just as the
mob leader is impelled-to seek
the complete eradication of the
whole present Nationalist Com
munist Yugoslav regime.
There is little that the Western
Allies can do at this stage of the
game. beyond what we have al
ready done to protect the Tito
regime, except to give it every
assurance that it is positively in
the interest of the West that Yu-
goslavia not be eliminated from
the political scene in Eastern
Europe.

supreme faith. just as was the
election last November.
1t is a very simple thing, just
this-that the Congress which
met last January is still here
nine months later and will ac-
complish finally. before it quits.
good DEAL. in spite OF dire
prophecies of only a few weeks
back that it would do virtually
nothing about Mr.. Truman's legis-
lative program. There were quite
few Jokes about it all at Harry
Truman's expense with which you
are familiar.
Tortoise Beats the Hare.
To any one who has watched
Congress here for many years and
knows its habits and customs. it
is miracle, in itself. merely that
Congress would stay around this
long in a time Of prosperity and
peace. though the peace we have,
it is true, is an uneasy one.
Even in times more critical. both
at home and abroad, Congress
would yank itself out from under
the strings of Franklin D. Roose-
welt who appeared to be much
stricter taskmaster than Harry
Truman. It is another case where
the patient tortoise beats the hare.
The uneasy peace is an emerg-
ency of sorts. In measures con-
nected with that President Tru-
man has not had too great diff
culties, though there have been
enough. Accomplishments in the
domain of foreign affairs stack
up high-extension Of the Euro
pean Recovery Program, the
North Atlantic Pact, arms for
Western Europe to implement it,
appropriations for our own ma
tional defense, and extension Of
the reciprocal trade program on
a basis sought by the President
without the restrictions imposed
by the 80th Republican Congress.
Success in these things is not
unusual in times such as these,
though it was not all easy by any
means.
But, in the field of domestic

RuSsia's hands - and presumably

allies-for the tasks ahead, which
the Soviet has defined pretty
clearly.
These tasks include the liquida-

is not, however, the outgrowth of
that action alone, nor Of Yugo-
slavia's insistence on running for
the Soviet Ukraine's seat in the
Security Council, against Russia's
candidate, Czechoslovakia.

tinue to be responsible for the de-

Both sides concur that Guam's
progress must be evolutionary.
Guam is a United States possess
sion; it is hoped she can advance
soon to the prouder status Of
United States territory whose peo-
pie enjoy the rights Of American
citizenship. Defense circles be-
lieve that it's peculiar value as a
Pacific outpost will prevent fur
ther advance into Statehood or

future.

like Admiral Radford at Pearl
on the wings of rumor that his
new appointment was in the in
terests of unification.
Admiral Even has had a long
experience in the Pacific and in
protecting Navy interests. His
bluff. hearty personality is in con-
trast to the liberal, intellectual
eX-newSpaperman who becomes
governor. AS the Arno cartoon
put it, the Guam situation is
fraught with interest.
Governors Role Debated.
The island already has a BIZ
lateral legislature, the Guam Con-
gress. where much of the agitation
for civil government was foment-
ed. The principal native mover
and shaker is F.. B. Leon Guerrero,
member of the house of council
and second Fiorello La Guardia
in build and personality. The
congress has appropriated $40, O,00O
to send him and the speaker OF
the assembly to We. ellington to
plead Guam's case f-r ali organic
act giving natives their civil
rights.
The feeling here toward the
Navy is good and there has been
little trouble. But Guam's story
is that America took over Guam
the now free Philippines and
Puerto Rico simultaneously and
that it is time to give Guam a
break.
There are two schools OF
thought about the governor s
duty. One says it is to protect
United States interests. The other
held by many with long expert
ence in these parts, is that United
States interests have many de-
tenders, that the governor should
be Guam's friend at court, more
Guamanian than the Guamanians

continues to be the cynosure Of
all eyes as he goes to work on the
corn.
The second, and highest phase
Of the adventure, begins when an
American bites into the corn.
French corn on the cob has all
the tenderness of a section of rail-
road tie, without the sweetness Of
a well-seasoned tie. It shouldn't
be served with butter, but with
some agent like sulphuric acid to
soften it.
Tougher Than Boiling.
No wonder the French never
have liked corn on the cob. They
have never tasted a fresh-picked
ear Of golden bantam or country
gentleman. The corn they are
serving Americans now was lifted
right out of the crib and boiled
for an hour or so to bring out
every bit of its toughness.
worked on an ear for the
better part OF one afternoon with
out damaging it to such an extent
that it could not be served to the
next unsuspecting American who
came along, which I am sure it
was. A dozen ears like the one
got would be all restaurant would
need for an entire tourist season.
While the top Partisan restau-
rants have yielded their pride and
served corn, the better restaurants

they are for dollars, too. will not

still is, for that matteD consid-
cred fare for pigs and horses
only. and it Is said that many
farmers apologized to their live
stock for asking them to eat it.
Smusgled Into Kitchens.
But word reached La Belle
France that Americans loved the
stuff and were willing to spend
money for it. so it began to be
smuggled into kitchens. While
the chef and all his assistants
turned their faces to the wall to
avoid the horrible sight, some
broken down outcast whose pride
was gone cooked it.
For an American to order corn
on the cob here affords him a
tWo-Way adventure. The adven-
ture begins when he gives his
order. Despite the fact that
walters have been briefed on how
to behave when an American or
ders this barnyard delicacy, very
few Of them can keep their faces
from registering horror, and some
have been known to cry out a
warning to the customer.
The adventure continues when
the corn on the cob Is served. All
the Frenchmen in the restaurants
to whom the American is visible
stop eating to stare at the man
who would dare order such a dish.
When the eater raises the corn
