Dear Elsie,
This is just a note to correct
something that read in your Sem
tineL last week about the Sher-
wood Community Fair. You wrote
that special prizes were awarded
Friday night, the others would be
sent later. It is a. matter of great
pride to all of us who worked so
hard on the fair that all prizes in
GLIDING the money that goes with
the ribbon awards is given out
when the exhibitors take home
their exhibits on Friday night.
This has been done the last three
years. l have helped with it and
being their adult secretary know
about what l am writing. We have
a system we use copied after my
work l did at the old Rockville
Fair, so our records are all COM
pleted when the fair is over. If
you know anything about this
work. it takes cooperation and
good bookkeeping, and these boys
and girls have it now. Since this
seems to be the only community
Fair to give prize money so soon,
we do hate to have it not recog-
nized in that way.
Sincerely,
(signed) Margaret NJ. Stabler
MRS. r. Rowland)

losers down hill slope. Led by
quarterback Elmer Lazarus and
left-end Gordon Coleman, the Rock
cts moved quite easily to gain
their third victory of the year as
Lazarus moved his team up and
down the muddy turf.
Full back Bob Mcdonald scored
the first touchdown early in the
first quarter as he raced 25 yards
after recovering a Sherwood fun
BILE. After being hurt earlier in the
contest the Rockets big left tackle
Dick Grist came in to kick the ex-
ira point making the score TO.
Following McDonald's touchdown,
Lazarus chose to hand off to his
left end Coleman who galloped
across the goal line from the five
yard marker to chalk up Rockville's
second touchdown. Grist kicked the
extra point to make the score 40.
Again in the first quarter Cole
man took the ball across the parallel
markers as Lazarus threw the 21-
yard touchdown pass. Grist again
came in to make the score 21~0.
Still later in the second quarter
Eddie Case, the Rockets second
string quarterback, wound up his
big right arm to sling a 40 yard
touchdown pass to Coleman. This
time CRISIS kick was wide of the
marker.
Early in the third quarter the
Rockets right end Earl Shipe
grabbed a pass intended for the
Sherwood left end and raced 25
yards to score. Grist again split
the up rights to make the score
$40. After battling in a down
pour the rockets slipped and slid
their way to the Sherwood two
yard line. From there Coleman
scored his fourth touchdown of the
afternoon, as he swept around Sher-
woods right end to make the final
score 400.

the Marshall Plan and the mill

tions which vote to accept Mos
cows stooges in the U. N.
Although the warning was
signed only by these two Repub-
lican Senators, it is fair to assume
that their Republican colleagues
and a number of Democrats fully
share their views.
Secretary Acheson and other
top-ranking officials of the State
Department have assured Con-
gressnen at various executive ses-
sions that the United States looks
with definite disfavor on the ef-
forts of the U. S. S. r. and Trygve
Lie, secretary general of the U. NJ,
to replace the Nationalist repre-
sentatives with Communist stooges.
But at the same time Mr.. AcheSon's
spokesmen have insisted that this
Government Will not use Cne veto.
Israel Case Recalled.
In order to prove that the
United Nations is not a mere in
strument of power politics. the
State Department will conf1ne it's
activities to voting against seating
of the Communists, but will bow to
the majority vote.
Many members of Congress re-
member, however, that our State
Department has not always main
tanned the same rigid and high
minded attitude in its dealings
with the U. N. It is recalled, for
instance, that considerable pres
sure was exercised on all our
friends in that peace-making Or
ganization when the question of
the creation of the state of Israel
was before it.
Great Britain, France and
China-among the permanent
members of the Security Council
and a large number of other men,
bers in the General Assembly were
hostile to creation Of the new
republic in Palestine. These ma
tions, which either did not like
the idea of an Israeli state or had
certain commitments toward the
Arabs, were determined to vote
against creation of that republic.
Subsequent events have shown
that Israel is likely to become a
stabilizing factor in the delicate
Near Eastern political setup.
At the time when this matter
was being discussed pollsters dis
covered that if all the U. N. mem

Truman's Negative Issues
President Builds Up Personal Standing
With Prodding From Party Minority

Kerr natural gas bill. assisted
effectively by number Of Re-
publicans, virtually forced Mr..
Truman to veto that measure
which his leaders in Congress had
understood he was ready to sign.
The same is true Of the pricing
bill in which the President had a
good "out" in that it was spon-
sored in the Senate by one of his
usually staunch adherents, Sena-
tor O'Mahoney. Democrat of
Wyoming, who has a fine past
record as an anti-monopolist, and
supported also by the Senate
party whip who usually follows
the Administration line. Senator
Myers. Democrat of Pennsylvania.
Because of the bills complexity
it is hard, too, to make an issue
over it.
Douglas Prominent.
But the group in the Senate
somehow did and the President
took the cue. From these battles
emerges an increasingly interest
ing figure, Senator Douglas, Dem
ocrat of Illinois. who was a leader
in the fights against both meas
ures. He proved himself most
effective in making a case to stir
public interest. diligent. clear
headed, clear-spoken-alSo ami
able and soft-spoken, which is q
great help in dealing with other
Senators.
In his veto of the pricing bill
in conciliatory message the
President took special pains to
take Senator O'Mahoney and
others of his supporters who diff
fered with him off the hook by
saying that the bills sponsors in
tended to protect fair competition
and prevent monopoly by clarity
ing the Supreme Courts decision
in the cement cases but that,
excuse him, it confused rather
than clarified after it had got
through Congress.
It should not and cannot be
overlooked that Democratic votes
put over both measures and sent
them to the White House, and
that, conversely. some Republi-
cans were on the side eventually
taken by the President in his
vetoes. From that standpoint, they
offer no clear-cut issue for the
party as a whole, though the
Presidents vetoes give him a per.
sonal record as President ano
party leader for campaign pur-
poses.

This Changing World
Pressure by U. S. on Other U. n. Nations
To Bar China Communists Is Justified

the chances of establishing an
independent state Of Israel were
very small, indeed.
Washington Launched Drive.
Directly and indirectly. the
Washing.to administration
launched a campaign IN New
York. Some countries were
cajolled. Others were given defi-
mite hints that unless they voted
the fright way" their chances OF
obtaining financial and economic
assistance from this country were
extremely remote.
Ofhcially we took the stand that
America was definitely and for
mally in favor of establishment OF
the new republic. as was provided
in the platforms of both major
political parties in this country.
Unofficially, persons known to be
close to the administration and
to high financial and industrial
circles had conversations with the
harassed representatives Of the
opposition. warning them that a
vote against Israel would be a
vote against the economic and
financial reconstruction Of their
own countries. In the end, more
than the necessary number OF
votes were cast in favor Of the
new state.
The creation of Israel was con-
sidered of great moral importance
by the State Department and the
White House. The exclusion Of
the Chinese Communists from the
U. N. is regarded as vitality impor-
tant in the policy of containing
Moscow's drive in the Far East.
Propaganda Effect Cited.
It is fundamentally unimpor-
tant whether men who owe al
legiance to Chang Kai-shek or to
Dictator Stain represent China
in the U. N. But the propaganda
effect of Russia's victory over the
United States will be SO deep on
hundreds of millions of Asiatics,
whom we are now attempting to
save from the Kremlin's clutches,
that both our political and stra-
tegic positions in the Far East
will become seriously endangered.
AS in the matter of Palestine.
the British government now is
considering the situation from the
purely selfish point of view. The
French are still open-minded, but
they may strike a deal with Lon
don If our Government does not
take a strong position.
The strong position which the
United States could take-in the
minds of those who fear a Rus
sian victory in the U. N.-would be
the assumption of the same atti-
tude that it took on the question of
Israel. That is to say, we should
warn our friends of the possible
consequences of supporting Soviet
blackmail.
Senators Bridges and Knowland
have paved the way for such a
stand by stating that they will
fight in the Appropriations Com
mittee the ALLEGATION of hundreds
of millions of dollars to countries
which vote for seating the Chi
nese Reds. The State Department
now can take the ball and run
with it to the best advantage not
only of this country but also of
those other nations which have
even more vital interests in the
Far East.

Bid for COP. Leadership
Duff and Warren Show Intent to Fight
To Lead Party at Governors Meeting

From it he would not bulge. He
can find a dozen windows in that
answer to jump from, depending
on the way the political situation
breaks.
Cows. Warren and Duff
shrugged of Sen. Mccarthy in
their own ways, too. more specifi-
cally than Gov. Dewey. Yet they
also left the door open for use CT
the Communist issue against the
Administration. Gov. Warren sug-
gested an impartial commission 10
investigate the problem Of ma
tional security. Gov. Duff con-
demned President Truman for
maintaining an air of secrecy and
called for an inquiry by outsiders.
Eager to Discuss Issues.
But they were then answering
importunate questioners. They
were plainly more eager to talk
about the issues on which they
will run than about a brash SEN
ator who is making headlines
they could use.
Gov. Duff tried a touch of po-
litical osmosis to elevate himself
to the presidential level. Presi-
dent Truman's intention of COM
ing into Pennsylvania to help
Senate Whip Francis Myers
against Gov. Duff represented an
effort by Mr.. Truman to rub out
the two-party system, Gov. Duff
contended. The governor finally
agreed that it was legal for Mr..
Truman to try to elect Democrats
but insisted he would tell Penn
sylvanians that his election would
be test of whether the two-party
system can survive.
It took defeat and pain to do
it but the battle for human inter-
est among the three COP leaders
was won by the once-glossy New
Yorker. With civility, with a
stubborn smile, Gov. Dewey can
vassed his temporary retreat with
reporters. It was a poignant per-
formance and the press at least
was glad when it was over.
Incidentally. there are Demo-
crat governors here. Since they
will dine with their President on
Thursday. following this confer
ence, they are naturally not eager
to annoy him by any forward be-
havior that might get into the
newspapers. After all. they know
that the stage is already set for
his denomination and they must
take it and like it.

DaAlilelS. 4nelr opponents, OF
course. will be the conservative
Republicans who dominate their
party in Congress.
Gov. Earl Warren is quietly con-
f1dent Of reelection to a third
term In the State the census may
put second, certainly third, largest
IN the Union. This is a popularity
trophy few Republicans can boast
in this 18th year of COP meander-
ing in the political desert.
Gov. Duff has just trounced
conservatives in his own party to
win a Senate nomination. That
he believes his normally Republi-
can State will further reward his
flghting campaign was evident in
every assured note of his voice,
every bristling hair of his head.
Dewey Retires.
In muted counterpoint to the
ruffles and hourishes with which
Cows. Warren and Duff played
their roles, Gov. Thomas e. Dewey
OF New York took himself off
this stage which he has effec-
lively dominated for the last nine
years. His retirement is only
temporary; he made that clear,
but an aching shoulder Joint has
proved the final persuader to an
unusually clear and acute mind
that history at the moment is
against Mr.. Dewey.
Every gambler knows that when
the dice or the horses or the cards
are not breaking. you can't do
anything right. But he'll gamble
again. So will Gov. Dewey. His
mo" to the question of whether
he is out Of politics was a whip
cracker.

ton of his reaction to Senator

to hammer in the coming cam
paign, just as in 1948. These he
will capitalize on the stump before
November to whip up zeal and en-
thusiasm among his labor allies
and other interested groups, in
cluding minorities. which of itself
should help to get out the vote
that is most important in off-yeal
Congressional elections when the
balloting normally is not very
heavy.
Likewise he has been able to
please these elements and others
by his own use of a negative de-
vice possessed by Presidents-the
veto. This is true notably in his
killing of the Kerr natural gas
bill at the behest of consumer and
labor groups, and his more recent
veto last week of the basing-point
price bill at the urging Of small
business. labor. farm organizations
and co-operatives.
The latter two vetoes came con-
veniently close enough together tt
dramatic an anti-monopoly, anti.
big business attitude.
Must Share Credit.
For this effect. however. the
President must share the credit
with a group in his party in botf
House and Senate which forced
the issues before the public b!
their long and hard fights, if in
deed they do not deserve majol
credit. The Democrats who wert
in the opposing minority which
finally won out through the Presi
dents vetoes-which had the sup
port of some Republicans, too
were not identical in the case o
both bills. But generally they con
stitute the hard core Of Fair Deal

This Democratic minority, upol
which the President has come tt
