This and That from WASHINGTON

only partially true, since many OF
the Plans are actually designed to
vest more power in the President
and do not fully carry out the
Commissions recommendations.
DR.. Robert L. johnson, Chairman
Of the Citizens Committee for the
Hoover Report, has said that with
the Is Plans which have now been
approved, only about 35 per cent
of the Hoover recommendations
have been put into effect.
The work Of carrying out these
Hoover recommendations must go
on. Legislation which would re.
organize and modernize the Post
Office, the Civil Service and the
General Accounting Office are
sorely needed. 1t has been estimat-
ed by the Citizens Committee that
reorganization of these three agen-
cies alone if properly administered
would save 500 million dollars ~,

Edgar Hoover for his work with
American boys.
AS mother of three sons, and
Member of Congress who has OBJ
served our F.B.I. organization for
many years. want to commend
and share with you these warning
remarks of Mr.. Edgar Hoover
when he accepted the award. He
said land note the emphasis): 1--WE
are witnessing tco often a gradual
disso lut on of the traditional
American home which has too
frequently become place to eat
and sleep instead of a place Of
moral development and spiritual
growth. Adult America in too many
instances has failed miserably in
its responsibility to youth.
"The tendency to coddle youth
or treat their problems with in.
difference manifests itself in many
communities. Instead of giving
young people leadership through
example and discipline, too fre.
quently we permit them to run
rampant in the uninhibited ex-
preston of their impulses--a prac-
tice which has lead to disastrous
consequences"

Last week | attended the Cen
trail Nerband Convention in Sa-
lem. There | renewed old ac-
quaintances and met many new
friends. 1t was a wonderful ex-
perience. You know it was also
my first convention and | was
rather surprised at the interest
shown by the delegates. They
were really in their pitching and
the Grand Officers had to be on
their toes at times to keep every
thing running smoothly. These
brethren and sistren came with
the idea of delegating and dele
eating they did.
I was bit disappointed though
along with a number of other
people that l didn't get to drive
myself home in a beautiful new
Mercury but that privilege went
to another - Rudy Kraft from
Sharon was the lucky fellow.
Happily he literally flew on the
stage to claim the prize.
1t was ham and chicken Satur-
day, pork chops for Sunday that
| we had to eat. The ten best Saxon
cooks in America probably were
assembled there. And then I met
Thomas, the Displaced Saxon
who only arrived in this country
from Germany two days ago. Al
ready he has mastered the english

boy. life won't be dull for YOU
There was the moment when
Herr Balthes posed on the stage
with the Saxon Queen. That mir
ror in his left coat pocket came
in mighty handy - not often one
gets to pose with a queen. In a
second his silvery locks were in
place and in kindl manner
took possession of the scene. The
introduction to this bit af page

Austin Declares u. ).
|Will Maintain Peace
By Keeping Strong
By the Associoted Press

LAKE SUCCESS, April 25.-
Warren r. Austin said yesterday
that the United States will main
tain world peace by keeping itself
so strong no one will dare to start
war.
Mr.. Austin, chief Americandele-
gate to the United Nations, made
the statement at special news
conference on the eve of the world
organizations fifth birthday. He
said:
That does not mean we are
getting ready for aggressive war
That means that We are employing
our total strength for peace. . .
The United States will not
allow war to occur and she will
maintain peace because nobody
will dare to start one. Never in
our history have you seen the
world so cooperative for peace as
it is today"
The former Vermont Senator
praised the shipment of American
arms to Europe under terms of
the Atlantic pact, saying:
These movements of arms
from us to Europe are the first OF
their kind in history. Do you sup
pose We would have had the other
two World Wars had such prep
aration for defense been made in
advance?
Mr.. Austin intimated the United
States will open a peace offensive
at the next General Assembly
meeting in September.
He indicated the United States
will no longer wait to see what
Russia will do and then enter
counterproposals, but will take
the initiative.

liam Lloyd Garrison, they will be

AS matter of fact, they are
being heard here and elsewhere
in the world already, as is evident
in the slight yielding in the area
of the State Department on the
problem of international atomic
energy control and in the fact
that, in England. the two major
political parties are vying with
each other In their election cam
paigns with proposals to end the
arms race and get an interna-
tional agreement. Winston
Churchill spoke out boldly. He
knows a trend when he sees it.
Campaign speakers in England
suddenly woke up to this issue
when, everywhere they went, peo-
pie began to ask anxiously about
the arms race and to demand
that something be done about 1t.
The same thing is happening
here.

It is really the only issue before

The slight yielding here, which
came only a few days after
President Truman seemed to slam
the door shut, had to be discov-
cred in the usual delicate nuances
of diplom ltic language, and yet
it seemed there very definitely to
those whose business it is to in
terpret such language. The State
Department spokesman in this
instance was, significantly, As
sistant Secretary of State John
D. Dickerson. who Is the United

which has wrestled unsuccessfully

While still strongly supporting
the so-called Baruch Plan of in
ternational atomic energy control

Assembly, he said this country is
willing to sit down at any time
and talk with Soviet Russia, and
added, 1--WE are prepared to ex-
anime sympathetically any pro-
pesals aimed at reaching sincere
agreement and eliminating atomic
weapons" The explanation that
this did not represent a change
| in State Department policy was
accepted as the usual cover for a
slight diplomatic retreat. Diplo-
mats can never admit a change

had had the cats about week
when I began to doubt seriously
that they were house cats at all,
and so I wrote to Frank Buck CIV
ing him a description of their be-
havior and asking the famed ami
NAL man to give me his opinion.
His description was not at all
reassuring! Indeed, ever since I
heard from him I never go around
the cats without carrying a
straight chair as I had seen Clyde
Beatty do in his circus act. It's a
bit awkward carrying a chair all
the time. but I much prefer being
awkward in one piece than grace
full in tatters.
Frank said he didn't think had
domesticated cats at all, but an
unusual type of stunted or minia-
ture mountain lion. He suggested
that I turn them loose in a pas
ture with some COWS and if they
mauled a COW or two not to bring

parties contain the usual promises
and platitudes used in most demo-
cratic countries. The candidates
themselves are probably the palest
and most uninspiring. type that
has ever come before an electo-
rate. At 73 Mr.. Churchill COM
pletely dominates the field, not
only with his rhetoric but also
with his personality, which 1e-
minds the English of the past
grandeur of their country.
The vote for or against the Con-
servative Party depends largely
on whether the British voters
believe their country is in a grave
domestic and international emer-
gency.
Between wars the British have
usually followed slow-going, unin-
spring leaders. After World War
I the prime ministers were of
that type: Bonar Law, Stanley
Baldwin. Ramsay Macdonald, Ne
vile Chamberlain. They were fine,
well-meaning citizens, but lacked
drive and initiative.
Warnings Discarded.
In that pre-World War II era
Mr.. Churchill was considered-not
only by politicians in his own
party, but also his countrymen-
as meddler, willing to take risks
which would interfere with the
pleasant-sounding slogan peace
in our time"
Mr.. Churchill's warnings about
the growing power of Hitler were
discarded as coming from the lips
of an inveterate and incurable
jingoist. His argument that Hitler
would give trouble to the world
and Britain in particular-was
cast aside with facts and figures
showing how much the trade be-
tween Britain and Germany had
improved.
The SLOW thinking idealists then
at the helm of the still-great Brit
ish Empire were not impressed

example of the White House
press conference, which early in
the New Deal was thrown open
to the Government press agents.
This has helped to make the
conferences an oxygen contest,
since all must crowd into the oval
study. 1t has also tended to in
fuse a docility into the confer
ence by impairing its intimacy.
Tass Issue Not New.
The question of Tass has oc-
Cured before in other forms.
There was, for example, consid-
cradle hostility to a Nazi reporter
for Hitler's official news agency in
the 30s. Nor do American re-
porters, anywhere in the world,
get the same access to news that
accredited foreigners get here.
Occasionally the suggestion arises
that we ought to restrict for
eigners here in order to wiring
concessions for our reporters
abroad. This is of doubtful prac-
ticality.
Structures against Tass would
certainly mean reprisals against
United States reporters in Mos
COW. 1t is irritating to see a Tass
reporter writing down Gen.
Bradley's off-the-record COM
ments at press conference of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but
probably it must be endured.
Besides, it would be nonsense
to restrict Tass and continue to
allow the New York Daily Worker

bible-the usual press privileges.
