EASTER SEALS:
Help q Child

The generosity of the American
people during the 1850 Easter Seal
campaign, which ends April 9, will
help bring new life and hope to
many crippled children.
SIX-YEAR-OLD Russell Miller
knows that, as does his family, for
Russell, who has had cerebral pal
sy since birth, is now able to start
walking by himself-because of the
help and treatment he received
through the auspices of the Ma
tional Society for Crippled Children
and Adults. He was chosen the
Easter Seal Boy for 1850" be-
cause he typifies the thousands Of
crippled children who have been
similarly helped through this or
ganization.
This years Easter Seal, which
symbolizes the conquest of handi-
cap by a crippled child, shows a
small boy abandoning his crutches
and starting to walk by himself.
RUSSELL is a handsome boy,
with bright and friendly eyes. He
is eager to learn and does every
day chores, despite his handicap.
At home he is an accepted member
of the family and does not expect
or receive any special privileges.
But, if it were not for the guild
ance of medical specialists, the de-
termination of his mother that he
would walk and play again like
other children, specialized care and
other Easter Seal services he re-
ceived. Russell's resulting rapid
progress certainly would never
have taken place.
The American people were re-
minded that during the Easter Seal
sale, no job and no contribution
would be too small to do its share
in helping crippled children walk
again.

SECURITY:
Cries of Foul

President Harry Truman and
Generals George c. Marshall anG
Dwight D. Eisenhower have no ap-
prehensions about the security stat
us of US. state department per-
sonnet.
The President declared there
was nothing to rumor that us.
Chief Justice Fred Vinson was to
replace Dean Acheson as state sec
rotary, and the two generals de-
clared that US. ambassador Phil
ip c. Jessup was practically be-
yond reproach from any angle. but
particularly so as regards any
faint of communism.
ALL THESE manifestations of
support of Acheson and Jessup
stemmed from charges by Senator
Mccarthy that many state depart
ment personnel were Communists
or leaned strongly toward commu-
nism.
Jessup holly denounced Nc
Carthy's charges as utterly ire
sponsible-a blow at American for
eign policy" and an actual aid to
world communism. Generals Mar
shall and Eisenhower supported
Jessup. Marshall, he said, was
shocked and distressed" by the
attack upon Jessup's integrity. Els
enhower said no one who knew Jes-
sup would question "the depth or
sincerity" of his devotion to "the
principles of Americanism."
Under questioning, Jessup, dur
ing his examination admitted that
he appeared as a character witness
for Alger Hiss, former state de-
partment attache convicted of ly-
ing when he denied he had slipped
out secret us. documents to a So
Wet spy ring.
BUT at the end of an hours-long
session of Capitol hill, Mccarthy
still was insisting that if senators
could get look at the complete
files on Jessup, "the importance of
taking action" would be demon
strated. Mccarthy was not per-
mitted to cross-examine witnesses.
AS for Secretary Acheson, Mr..
Truman thoroughly demolished ru-
mors concerning the formers re-
moval and declared, instead, that
Mr.. Acheson was running the state
department admirably"

RENT CONTROL:
. Soon 10 Go?

Federal rent controls soon would
be thing Of the past, if a partic-
uiar action of congress could be
construed as an indication-and it
was SO construed by everyone in
Washington
CONGRESS gave the President a
broad hint that there may not be
any rent controls after June 30,
when il sent to him a money bill
that included funds earmarked to
pay off employees of the rent con-
trsl agency.
The senate completed legislative
actien on the measure-a 1913 mil
lien dollar deficiency bill-to pro-
vide extra money for various fed
eral agencies for the year ending
in June.
INCLUDED in the measure was
four million dollars for the office
Of housing expediter Tighe E.
Woods. OF that amount, more than
tive and one-haf million was to be
used to pay for the terminal leave
of employees. The other 1.25 was
for operating expenses for which
Woods had asked SO millions.

FOREIGN AID:
Billion Topped

Whether it portended a more
realistic view toward European re-
covery needs, or was just sympto-
matte of a seasonal purse-tighten-
ing effort on the part of some con-
gressmen, there were major head
lines in the fact that the house for
sign affairs committee Topped
billion dollars off foreign aid re-
quests for next year.
Slashing a proposal made by
President Truman, the committee
went on to recommend that the ex-
isting gap in foreign relief be filled
With US. farm SURPRISES.
THAT WOULD make sense to
most Americans, probably, except
those SO energetically and enthusi-
astically committed to foreign aid
without any limit or restrictions,
that they brand as narrow isola-
tonists anyone who argues that
Us. welfare ought to be considered
along with welfare of other ma
tons.
Paul G. Hoffman, foreign recov-
cry administrator, was unable to
say Immediately what effect the
foreign aid plan slash would have.
He said he would prefer to study
the proposal and ascertain what
kind Of farm SURPRISES the govern
ment has in its bins, and whether
Europe needs them.
HE SAID he already knows these
surpluses include wheat, cotton and
tobacco. A house committee men,
Der also named these three and
added corn, oats, barley, fats, oils
and dairy products. No mention
was made of the huge SURPRISES of
potatoes and eggs which America
also has on hand.
Hoffman, who most likely would
end up opposing SURPRISES in lieu Of
cash, would be hard put, it ap-
peared, to make the avera &c
American believe that a war-rav-
aged Europe couldn't use, or didn't
need, such items as eggs, potatoes,
corn, fats oils and dairy products.
There are many American families
right here at home who would be
delighted if they ever had a suffi-
cheney Of any of these items.

PRESIDENCY:
All Aboard!

President Truman was getting
ready to hit the trail again with
his gospel Of the need for electing
and rejecting Democrats. It was
believed his spring and fall cam
paign tour would match the inten-
sity Of his 31,500-mile "give-'em-
hell" campaign of 1913.
PLANS were for Mr.. Truman to
hit the road early in May for a
rear-platform speaking swing that
would carry him into Washington
state about May II for the dedica-
ton of Grand Coulee dam. It would
wind up with a fighting political
talk" in Chicago stadium the night
of May Is at a giant Democratic
rally.
The trip will include "off-the-
cuff" talks to crowds around the
railroad tracks to and from the
west coast, and plugs for Demo-
cratic candidates and Fair Deal
measures.
For the fall campaigning, an
even longer, more intensive tour is
being planned, for then the Presi-
dent will 60 into score or more
of states to slug it out for Demo-
cratic congressional candidates.
MR.. TRUMAN'S amazing sue
cess at this type of political war
fare is the chief reason, curely,
why he has decided to engage in it
again. Admittedly no orator, the
President, nevertheless, did suffi-
GENTLY well for himself in the 1913
campaign to make it seem logically
good strategy to pursue similar
tactics this time.

Called Soviet Murder
BY the Assoeioted Press

SEATTLE, Sept. 28.-A Moscow
trained ex-Communist has testified
that the mystery death in 1910 of
Laura Law at Aberdeen. Wash,
was a Red-inspired murder. =
Paul Crouch of Miami, Fla, /,
made the statement recently when
he testified for the immigration
and Naturalization Service at a
deportation hearing for 10 aliens.

when attorneys completed the
consolidated portion of hearings
for the aliens, accused of being
Communist.
Crouch said Mrs. Law was "a
member of the Communist Party
:. who was killed by Soviet
secret police" because she was
preparing to go with her story
to place it before the newspapers
and the public-the inside story
of Communist Party activities in
the State of Washington"
The victim was the wife of Dick
Law, a former leader of the Grays
Harbor CIO-1nternational Wood
workers of America. She was
found bludgeoned and stabbed to
death at her home January 5,
1910. No one ever was charged

Bill Signed 10 LET Teachers
Here Go Abroad for Year

President Truman today signed
legislation to permit the District
Board of Education to participate
in the foreign teacher program
which is sponsored by the United
States Office of Education.
Previously. due to restrictions in
the District laws regarding the use
of funds appropriated for teach
ers' salaries, the District teachers
could not participate.
The School Board, anticipating
the action today somewhat, ap-
proved last week the sending of
information about the program to
the teachers.
The plan open to District teach
erS would allow them to teach in
a foreign schol for a year while
on leave of absence from schools
here. They would be off the Dis

approved by the School Board.
