The W ashingtoD Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON
,copyrisnt. is4s. by Bell Syndicate. Incl

WASHINGTON-While Presider- Truman has been preaching CIVIL rights for the south, he has prac- ticed exactly the same kind of vote discrimination toward groups or young Democrats as he has criticiz- ed in southern states.
 The national convention of Young Democrats in Chattanooga this week illustrates this vote discrimination, and also highlights the fact that the young Democrats, once a live wire, progressive organization, in many states has become Charley Mccarthy for Democratic bosses, sometimes bought and paid for.
 The young Democrats of New York State, for instance, are no more representative of the, Demo- cratic Party than Boss Hague of Jersey City. New York Democrats are not even permitted to hold an election. Their President is appoint ed, not elected by Paul Fitzpat- rick, Democratic State Chairman, who keeps an ironclad hold on the young Dems organization for fear they will bolt to young Congress- man Franklin Roosevelt.
 : Undoubtedly the great preponder- ance of young Democratic voters in New York would definitely be in the Roosevelt camp-if they had a chance Fitzpatrick has his eye on the Governorship of New York him. self next year, and he doesn't want control to slip into the hands of Franklin Roosevelt, potential ri- val candidate.

 Mrs. Carleton S. HadIey
 Pronounced Man and Wife

ST. LOUIS, Nov 18-tR-Vice President Alben w. Barkley and Mrs. Carleton S. Hadley were mar ried today in a ceremony climaxing a romance that has been in the puslic spotlight for the past four months.
 The Vice President, who will be 72 next Thursday. and his attrac- tive bride of 38 were wed by Bishop Ivan Lee Holt of the Mis- souri area of the Methodist Church.
 Mrs. Hadley, who first, met the Vice President on a cruise down the Potomac last July, wore a smartly tailored woolen suit Of "Baikley Blue
 Cnly thirty-three members of the immediate families and newsmen were in the chapel at St. Johns Methodist Church when the cere- mony began with the familiar words, Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in the sight of God :"
 Newsmen outnumbered the rela- tivea.
 The bride did not promise to "ohey" the Vice President. The Methodist marriage ritual hasn't included that word for ten years.
 They joined hands as they were pronounced man and wife. The Bishop addressed them as "Alben' and "Jane."
 The wedding ceremony. first for a Vice President in office, was con- cluded with the Lords Prayer.
 David M. Barkley of Paducah, Ky, Barkley's son by a previous marriage, was best man, and the only attendant Mrs. Hadley chose her brother, William w. Rucker of West Palm Beach. Fla, to give her away.
 The newlyweds planned to leave on their honeymoon for "Shangri- La," as the Veepp called it. Rumor has it that they are going to Key West, Fla, where they will shortly te joined by President Truman and his family.

|: These officials have felt for sev-

Government should not be in any
hurry to recognize the Chinese
Red regime. At the same time,
they have expected that eventually
recognition probably should be
granted. particularly if and when
the Chinese Nationalist govern
ment ceases to exist.
The feeling which is now be-

them is that the Communists are
proving themselves unworthy OF
American recognition by the way
in which they have treated Mr..
Ward, and. in fact. the whole
consulate staff at Mukden.
The British. whose officials In
China have been much more IA
vorably treated by the Chinese
Communists, take an entirely Diff
