like ours it is essential that on
such matters the public be taken
into the administration's con-

The American people. who are
called on to foot all bills-in
blood Or in cash-should be al
lowed to hear the arguments
which prompt the administration
to embrace a certain policy. They
should be given the opportunity to
approve or censure policies, in

Mr.. Acheson presented to the
small group of Senators.

every executive session. They are
colored according to the views of
the person who commits the in

adds confusion In the minds of
the public.
We have reached a stage today,
however. where not only Is the
public denied information about
what makes our foreign policies
function, but our elected repre-
sentatives themselves are COM
PEELED to do a good deal of snoop-
ing to find out what goes on in
the Executive branch of the Gov

From information which has
leaked out of the committee ses-
sion, 1t appears that none Of the
seven questions which Republicans
had drafted for Mr.. Acheson-
questions dealing with the mill
tary aspects of the Formosa policy
were answered candidly by the
Secretary Of State.
Mr.. Acheson was asked certain
definite questions, such as what
military authority formally ad-

though that slash can be blamed

for four-fifths Of the present

Mostly they will oppose or seek

This Changing World
Congress Seen Unable to Judge Wisdom

supposed to share with the Execu-

responsibility for major decisions
on foreign policy today are almost
as ignorant of the real facts which
lie behind actions Of the admins
tration as is the general public,
They cannot obtain satisfactory
answers. either from civilian OFF,
cials or from military leaders. who
are compelled to obey instructions
from civilians when they appear
before congressional committees
In order to avoid embarrass-
ment for the Joint Chiefs Of Staff
Chairman Tydings Of the Senate
Armed Services Committee re-
jected request from Senator
Knowland, Republican. of Cali
fornia to call Defense Secretary
Johnson and the Joint Chiefs
themselves before the committee
Senator Tydings holds the view
that the question of Formosa con-
Germs the Foreign Relations Com
mittee and that he would be vast
ing the time of the Armed Services
Committee by going into matters
which do not concern that group.
Military Aspect Emphasized.
Senator Tydings will be pressed
to change his view, since the de-
fense of the United States is a
question which primarily interests
the armed services and Formosa
is interesting from military
rather than a political point OF
view.
The fact remains, however, that
unless members of Congress are
taken fully into the confidence OF
the Executive branch and told all
the facts which determine major
Government policies-a practice
not now followed-the role of the
Legislative branch will be reduced
to that of rubber stamp.
Unlike President Roosevelt. Presi-
dent Truman gives the members
of his cabinet a completely free
hand. He indorses almost any
thing suggested by his Secretary
of State, particularly when it
comes to international questions.
Mr.. Truman proceeds on the
theory that since he has appointed
his cabinet officers to their present
positions he trusts their Judgment
and knowledge implicitly. Not
only does he feel honor bound to
approve their actions. but he must
also put behind them the whole
political majority in Congress.
The net result is that decisions
reached by the State Department
are indorsed automatically by the
President. Congress accepts them
with the usual protests from
the opposition-regardless Of how
much 1t may dislike some Of the
facets Of our foreign policy.
Opposition from members OF
Congress is based usually more on
intuition than on knowledge, since
important information is classified
secret or top secret in order to
deny 1t to both the public and
members of Congress.

lot of people, are sure that gov
ernment has now become too ex-
pensive.
Those most convinced Of this
are the conservative members Of
Congress. Republicans and DEM
ocrats. They call the Presidents
figure startling and dangerous.
they speak Of sugar-coated red
ink, they warn Of financial Jug
Cling for political purposes. Of ma

and the hazards Of deficit financ-

And yet it is doubtful II any
thing much is going to be done
about it. AS that shrewd Yankee,
Senator Aiken of Vermont, points
out, this is an election year. AL
most any cut in the budget is
likely to cost somebody votes
somewhere. And, anyhow, If the
average citizen is suffering seri-
ously because of the cost Of gov
ernment, he doesn't seem to be
aware Of 1t. II he thinks about
1t at all, he probably thinks we
have a better country now than
we had in the days Of the billion
dollar Congress and that the aver
age citizen is enjoying a better
life.
Cost Deplored.
So the conservatives can be ex-
pected to expend more OF their
energy in deploring the cost Of
government than they expend in
cutting that cost. They will give
full expression. in Congress and
on the stump, to their concern
over deficit financing, but they

ments that the party is watching
are to the public relations and
women's division vacancies. The
chairman's plan now seems to be
to wait for the meeting here
January 1919 of his policy COM
mittee and clear with them the
names he favors.
There Is no dearth Of candidates
for the public relations posts and
the list includes a highly success
full Hollywood figure for whom 1t
would be largely q labor of love.
But it is hard to get exactly the
right person for that highly spe-
cialized job; Mr.. Gabrielson found
that out himself when he did some
fishing among the Washington
corps Of correspondents in the
hope of Snaring another Charlie
Nicholson for his right hand.
Women Are Divided.
The chairman also found the
women of the National Committee
divided among themselves with re-
spect to the qualities he ought to
seek In a new head Of women's ac-
tivities. Some of the younger and
newer committeewomen pressed
hard for young woman with q
reputation for working In So
cial fields Of special interest to
women. Mrs. Oswald Lord Of New
York, well and favorably known
here. was among those mentioned.
Others argued that the job
should be kept IN the family and
constitute a promotion for years
of party work,
The national chairman's deci-
sion to key the choice to geography
and name Q Westerner seems to
have resulted In victory for the
latter group. The contenders most
prominently to the fore are Mrs.
Clifford Mayes Of Idaho and Mrs.
Gladys Knowles Of Montana. both
National Committee members and
former State vice chairmen. Both
ARE experienced and popular in the
party; neither would noticeably
enlarge the boundaries Of the COP

Top Men From East.
Mr.. Gabrielson's argument for
going West Is that all other top
positions In the 1850 campaign are
filled BY Fasteners. He and his
assistant, Alb Herman. are from
