Ickes Sees Truman,
Calls Him Obvious
Choice for 81 Race

President Truman will head the
Democratic ticket in 1852 if he
wants it, in the opinion of Harold
L. Ickes, former Secretary of In
terror, who saw the President late
yesterday.
It is obvious" where the party's
choice will lie, Mr.. Ickes told re-
porters, but he added that he
didn't know how Mr.. Truman felt,
not having been taken into his
confidence.
The former cabinet aide also
discussed G. o. P. possibilities and
some OF the election results, COM
menting that the outcome of the
New York voting was the product
Of deal"
Says Three Were Involved.
Involved. he said, were two vic
tors, Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, Re-
publican, and Mayor Vincent I'm
pellitteri, Independent, and James
A. Farley, former Democratic ma
tional chairman.
1T wasn't a last-minute deal,
either" he added.
Mr.. Ickes said Republican cap
tains passed the word for Mayor
Impellitteri, who had been denied
the Democratic nomination, and
that the Republicans did not get
a normal vote, even in their own
territory. Mr.. Farley supported
the Mayor.
Asked for an opinion as to why
the Republicans won in Illinois,
Mr.. Ickes gave two reasons:
l. Lucas couldn't stay put with
himself on issues" Democratic
Senator Lucas was defeated by
Republican Everett Dirksen.)
2. The nomination Of Dan Gill
bert as Democratic candidate for
sheriff in Chicago.
Mr.. Ickes said Republican pres
1dential possibilities included Gov.
Dewey, Senator Taft of Ohio,
Gov. Earl Warren of California
and Senator elect James Duff of
Pennsylvania. A reporter re-
marked that Mr.. Ickes had
omitted the name of Gen. Eisen-
hover. and he said, "I assume he
will be in Europe but his name
would have to be mentioned and
underlined If he were still here
cr had come back from Europe"
Gen. Eisenhower is expected to
be named supreme commander
of Western European military
forces if the Atlantic treaty ma
tions can agree on creating such
a post.
McNutt Also Sees Truman.
AS usual. Mr.. Ickes would not
say what he had talked to the
President about.
Another White House caller
was Paul v. McNutt, former Gov
ernor of the Philippines. who said
he had discussed problems of the
islands with the President.
To a questioner, Mr.. McNutt
said he did not plan to return
to Government service.

majority of so, and the Senate, which
was not considered in danger, had gone
from Democratic majority Of II to
Republican majority Of 2. It was fore
runner of the even more overwhelming
reputation of the Democratic Party in
1920.
There were many explanations. The
war had never been popular with the
American people. The Democratic ma
jorities in Congress had been returned in
the presidential election Of 1916 in which
the most popular slogan was, He Kept
Us Out of War" President Wilson's call
for the return of Democratic Congress
in 1918, when both parties were doing
their best for the war effort, was not well
received.
America never experienced such holi-
days as in 1893 during the Spanish
American War; On Easter Sunday came
the word of Dewey's victory in Manila
Bay-"Dewey was the morning and
Dewey was the day" On the Fourth of
July came the word Of the destruction of
Admiral Cervaras fleet as it tried to es-
cape from Santiago Harbor.
The Democratic Party, the old party Of
continental expansion, took an anti
imperialistic position. The victory be-
longed to the Republicans. But in the
November elections, their majority Of 81
was reduced to %.

Vitamin drops used for babies are good

Sex and EnqIond's Church

The writer Of the letter on Sex and
Englands Church" in The Star Of No
vember 2 has done the Church OF
England grave injustice. She quotes
from the churchs booklet. Moral
Crisis, the Church in Action" as fol-
lows: Sex is what you were made for.
Sexual experience is the thing you
can't do without. If you miss it. you
miss the thing most worth having in
life. And if you do not get all that
you want in marriage you are free to
seek it elsewhere"
The writer is apparently under the
misconception that this is the attitude
of the Church of England itself, for
she attacks the church on the basis of
this quotation. In the interests Of
truth, it should be noted that the story
in The Star of October % from which
she obtained this quotation prefaced it
as follows: "The report decried half

Feeding stray animals is an interesting
experiment in diet.
Usually the kitten or puppy at large
in neighborhood has undergone some
feeding.
Householders give it food, now and
then, but this is only enough to keep 1t
going.
Milk, scraps
These are good, but not enough to put
the glow Of health into an animal.
The young animal on four legs may
look fat enough.
It may have good fur.
Still 1t lacks animation.
Usually after a stray is taken home at
least week or ten days, sometimes as
much as two weeks, must elapse before
the creature begins to play.
The old food it had received had not
been enough to infuse It's muscles with
pep"
That is quality that must come from
good proteins.
Fresh meat, milk, whole wheat
These are some Of the foods to be
given the stray dog,
Much the same for the kitten, except
the whole wheat is not so essential.

Is the necessity for taking it gradually, Id

A sanitary survey conducted by the
Arlington Fairfax Chapter during 1947
indicated the immediate need for an
adequate disposal facility in Arlington
County. With the rapid increase in pop
ulation since 1947, the need is more i'm

West Point SesquicentennioI

Next year will be the 150th anniversary of
the founding of the United States Military
Academy, and plans already are being developed
for proper celebration of the sesquicentennial
at West Point. Major General Bryant E. Moore
superintendent, has issued reminder to friends
of the famous school and to fellow institutions
of learning expressing the hope that they will
cooperate toward the success of the occasion
He explains that Thomas Jefferson was the real
father of the Academy and that in setting it up
he was acting on the advice of George Washing
ton, John Adams, Alexander Hamilton and other
WORTHLESS. In this connection he says: From
the beginning the Academy dedicated itself to
the task of training young men to be military
leaders imbued with the ideals of integrity Of
character and answering devotion to the Nation -

then explains twas engaged in difficult expert
nent In popular government. :. The success
OF that experiment has indicated our faith in
the ability of men to reason together to attain
their common ends" But the ideal of govern
ment by the people, which West Point was organ
lied to serve, must be defended. "The problem
of our times is how best to preserve and develop
this ideal, which has become a tradition for
democracies in free world. Surely all our
national resources, physical and intellectual and
moral, must be turned to account If our own
democracy is to live and grow" TO this end

lows.
The quotation which Immediately fol-
lowed these words was not the attitude
Of the Church Of England but was
pointed out and decried by the church's
report as an attitude found in agencies
which WELD wide public influence.

nNE REASON why the dopesters are
~ having particularly hard time fig
uring the effect of the Korean war on
tomorrow's election is that there is some
doubt at the moment whether we have
really won the victory we thought we had
won week ago. But it always Is hard
to predict the effects of military actions
on election results. A study of the his
torical record shows this. Particularly,
it shows that success on the battlefield
doesn't necessarily mean success at the
polls for the party in power.
There comes Immediately to mind the
British elections which surprised the
Labor Party in the fall of 1945 by CIV
ing it control of the goyerpment-and
Winston Churchill's report of it in the
first volume of his World War II men,
oirs. AS Mr.. Churchill put 1t: "Al our
enemies, having surrendered uncondi-
tionally or being about to do so, was
Immediately dismissed by the British
electorate from all further conduct OF
their affairs"
But on this side of the water, Gov
Thomas E. Dewey had reason to feel
that any chance of Republican victory
in 1914 was erased by the sweep of
American armies across France and into
the Rhineland In the summer and fall
Of that year.
After World War ], Lloyd George
scored political victory In the United
Kingdom with bis Make Germany Pay
for the War" and Hang the Kaiser"
campaign. But Clemenceau, who saved
France by stirring speeches and practical
military measures, dropped out of the
postwar picture.
In the United States military triumph
had most paradoxical political effect.
As the voters went to the polls on Tues
day. November S. 1918, victory was in
the air. After q terrible time in the
rugged terrain of the Argonne Forest
country north of Verdun, the two Ameri-
can armies under Gen. Pershing were
marching down the Meuse Valley, trying
to catch up with German Withdrawals
and were only Is miles from Sedan. It
was part of the general advance of the
French. English and Belgians along the
entire Western front.
The papers of Sunday, November 3,
headlined the meeting of the Supreme
War Council at Versailles and gave an
outline Of the armistice terms being
drawn up for the enemy's signature. On
Monday the headlines were on Austria's
withdrawal from the war The dual
monarchy had signed the terms which
Germany was expected to sign next-and
in few days.
But on Tuesday Americans cast their
ballots And when the returns were in,
a six-vote Democratic majority in the
House had been changed to Republican

"Furthering Our National Security"
General Moore af1irms his belief that study
and discussion of the subject selected will
disclose ways and means for the most effective
use of our national resources in the service of
democracy" He wants the sesquicentennial to
be something more than mere commemoration
of the past The program he is devising will
