Sweden's Big Shot In Skiing Visits

Orienteering, as the sport is

competitive sport in which parti-

Kentucky Legislature
kills Veteran Bonus
In Stormy Session
BY the Associoted Press

FRANKFORT, KY, Mar. 18.-
The General Assembly killed a
veterans bonus bill by Senate
and House failure to agree before
final adjournment today.
The bill would have submitted
a constitutional amendment to
empower the 1852 General AS
sembly to give each World War 1
and II veterans maximum of
5000 by new and increased taxes
The two branches couldn't agree
on the taxes. Their failure left
only one constitutional amend
ment to be voted on November 6
next year. Previously enacted,
that one proposes to make it
easier to amond the constitution.
The bonus proposal. in. which
the House wanted to include a
lottery, wasn't the only important
measure that failed to pass in
the final session marked by con-
fusion in the House and a threat
by House Speaker Adron Doran
to throw his gavel at Representa-
tive Morris Weintraub, an insur-
gent Democrat.
Mr.. Doran said later he was
sorry for what he said when Mr..

WAR POTENTIAL:
U. S. Coins Cited

While the national committee
for aeronautics reported that at
is logical to assume" Russia is
working hard to develop SUPER
speed warplanes to deliver atomic
weapons, it also reported continu-
ing American gains in the race
for air leadership" The committee
called for efforts to consolidate
these gains and push forward"
THE AGENCY reporting is the
governments chief organization
for basic aviation research and,
consequently, should know what it
is talking about.
The committee dropped one not
so-cheering note, however, by
pointing out that any nation that
wants to make the effort can build
practical military airplanes" able
to fly faster than sound.
"Superior-speed," the report
continued, sis generally acknowl-
edged to be the most important
single element in successful air
attack and in defense against at
tack. Range also is important. The
attainment of long range poses
most difficult problem"
AND THEN the reports punch
line:
"As in the case of the atomic
bomb, America cannot expect to
enjoy an exclusive advantage-at
best it can only plan by vigorous
and timely research to stay ahead
of any potential enemy =. :"

Both Sci,co!teashers

Both Senator Holland and Senator
Pepper taught school, both studied
and practiced law, both served in
the Florida state legislature, both
belong to the Kiwanis, Sinners,
Masons, Elks and both are Phi
Beta Kappas and members of the
American Legion. There the SIM
ilarity ends, but both were elected
to the United States senate.
Senator Pepper, up for reelec-
ton this year, is two years older
than Senator Holland, but has
head of coal black straight hair.
He has prominent nose, exceed
ingly high forehead, high cheek
bones and is slightly stopped. He
is considered one of the ablest
debaters on the floor of the SEN
ate. He is an ardent New Dealer,
was one of the most loyal support
ers of President Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
Although Florida is not consid-
cred an industrial state, he is one
of the staunch advocates of labor
Legislation and repeal of the Taft
Hartley Act. He is held up by or
gained labor as one of the few who
voted "1CO per cent right" on labor
Legislation.
=. Prior to the Democratic national
convention in 1913, Senator Pep
per urged General Eisenhower to
" run against the President. As a
matter of fact the night before the
nomination, after Eisenhower re.
fused, Pepper announced his own
candidacy for president against
President Truman, probably the
shortest candidacy on record, for
he withdrew within about three
hours and was among the first on
the platform to congratulate Pres
ident Truman and to swear his
loyalty.

Not a New Dealer

Senator Holland was never a
Roosevelt New Dealer, although he
favored some of the progressive
legislation sponsored during that
era. He has been unable to 60
along with much of the Truman
Fair Deal program, particularly
with reference to civil rights, re-
peal of the Taft-Hartley act, the
administration health program, the
Brannan farm program and others.
He does support the Truman for
eign policy program, however.
With reference to the Presi-
dents state of the Union mes
sage, Senator Holland said: II
liked the foreign program part
of his message, but the domes-
tic part seemed to be little
more than a reiteration of the
message of last year, and re-
statement of those old trouble

Conflicts Noted
IN WASHINGTON

THERE is a continuous wonder
ment here in Washington among
those who watch the ever-changing
mortality in the membership of
congress how the same set Of
voters in given state will send
Representatives to Washington Of
opposite and conflicting view
points-men with completely diff
ferent outlooks on politics, upon
economics, upon human relation
ships, although they may even be
from the same political parties.
Of course these opposites stand
out more boldly in the senate
where there are only two men from
each state. Excellent examples
are Senators William LANCER and
Milton R. Young, both Republicans
from North Dakota; Senators
Styles Bridges and Charles w.
Tobey, both Republicans from
New Hampshire; Senators Ken
meth Mcclellan and Estes Kefauver,
both Democrats of Tennessee.
Probably the most outstanding
example of this peculiar prefer
ment of the voters is the two SEN
ators FIR m Florida, Senators
Claude Pepper and Spessard Lind
sey Holland.
Senator Holland is a southern
aristocrat, tall, straight, hand
some, with thatch of white hair.
He has an engaging personality
and polished manner, and while he
is not considered one of the top
orators in the senate, he is always
well prepared when he takes the
floor and presents his arguments
with legal and forensic skill.
He never makes an enemy
and is one Of the best liked
men in the senate, with a host
Of friends on both sides of the
political aisle. He is making
record as a watchdog of the
treasury and his record vote
during the first session of the
81st congress shows that he
voted 20 times against in
creased appropriations to cut
expenditures.
But when it comes to the south
ern bloc, Senator Holland is some
times found voting with the SOUTH
erners, even against the majority
of Democrats in the senate. And it
is this southern bloc which often
joins with the Republicans to form
the southern DemOcrat-Republica
coalition.

GREAT BRITAIN:
Attlee Stunds Pot

On the surface, at least, there
was no qualms over possible re-
suits and certainly no promises of
reform as the Labor party in Eng
land loudly proclaimed that it
would stand for more and "better"
socialism if it were returned to
power in the February elections.
OBVIOUSLY, the overthrow of
the Socialists in Australia and,
earlier, in New Zealand, didn't
mean thing to Prime Minister
Clement Attlee and his administra-
ton.
The party in power in Great Brit
ain laid down its platform in a
6,000-word manifesto. The plat
form included:
"Wise development" of the ad-
ministration of government medi-
cal services and other welfare
services Zone of the most holly
disputed of socialist innovations).
NATURALIZATION of insurance
that is, ownership by policy-hold-
ers.
Jobs for all.
Increase in production, lowering
costs and increasing imports.
More and cheaper food.
A home for every family.
No shelter for private enter
prise behind price rings and
rugged markets."
EFFORTS FOR PEACE in a
realistic" manner, and willing
ness to cooperate with Russia. as
with any other country that is
prepared to work for peace and
friendship"
Strengthening of the association
of the commonwealth and the At
lantic pact.
An ambitious program surely
and one which must command
some measure Of respect if only
for its declining to retreat in the
face of what might seem to be a
dangerous situation.

GWEAWAY DUE
Potatoes

The government announced it
was going to "give away some
OF the enormous stocks of potatoes
which it bought to keep prices up
but, as usual, there was a catch
to it. Not everyone could get the
potatoes, and it was not as "free"
as it appeared.
THE POTATOES, it appeared,
would 60 only to the school lunch
program, the bureau of Indian af-
fairs, public and private welfare
agencies in this country and pri-
vate agencies doing relief abroad.
However, that was a move which
should elicit no criticism, mas
much as it savored more of intel
lgent government in action than
most bureaucratic actions.
Here's the catch:
FOR the school lunch, and some
private institutions, the "give-
away" program means they will
have to start paying something to
get potatoes they once got without
having to pay out a nickel. The
reason for that, it was explained. is
that for many years the govern
ment had a surplus-crop disposal
program, for which congress ap-
propriated funds, This meant COM
modities could be delivered to
schools free
Now, all that's changed, there
is no free-delivery fund, so school
lunches will have to pay transpor-

VETS BONUS::
Added Support

The battle lines for the fight to
obtain a bonus for veterans of
World War II has been strength
ened by support from the Amvets,
World War II organization.
Meanwhile, the Veterans of For
eign Wars renewed its long-stand-
ing bonus appeal.
THUS, two major veterans or
CARNATIONS standing shoulder to
shoulder on the proposition that
the nation should reward their war
services with bonus.
Harold Russell, Amvets national
commander, told the house veter-
ans affairs committee that "by
every standard of equity the bonus
is justifiable."
Certainly the CTS of Conflict
Two had a precedence in the case
of the Doughboys of World War I.
And, remembering history, they
would not be too disappointed at
early delays, inasmuch as it took
quite time for the World War |
veterans to obtain passage of a
bonus bill.
THE AMVETS and the VFW
were agreed that the rate of COM
pensation for veterans should be
So day for service in this coun
try, and 81 day for service over,
seas. This would mean that a max
imum bonus would be $4,000, with
an extra bonus for men who were
wounded in action.
The question of bonus for men
who have defended their country
in time. of war is one of the: most
difficult with which a people may
wrestle. There is the vast gratitude
and appreciation of service on the
one hand. and on the other a con-
ception of patriotism and duty.
