tary johnson has been taking a
pounding for the United States
inadequacies exposed in Korea,
and apparently 1t softened him up
nicely for the Macarthur esti-
mates.
A blank space had been left for
the actual figure in drafts of the
Truman message handed around
at the cabinet meeting Tuesday
It was a dramatic moment when
the President calmly said that
he was asking for ten billions
This is a small sum for a war;
it is handsome for what we are
still calling a police action, 'espe-
cially in a capital where economy
and tax reduction were shibboleths
only yesterday.
Cabinet Doesn't Argue.
Secretary Of the Treasury Sny-
der asked what the figure covered,
did it include Atlantic Pact funds.
The President replied crisply that
it didn't but was for the military,
some of it for rather long range
expenditures.
Secretary Of the Interior Chap
man broke the tension with a
smiling suggestion that the Presi-
dent add billion more for nat
ural resources lstockpiling) and
power. Interior and the National
Security Resources Board are deep
enough already into these aspects
to know that stock piles Of stra-

par and that. there is very little
reserve power for increased manu-
factures.
Like Congress. his cabinet
showed little disposition to argue
with the President. Even had
some of the more conservative
members been so inclined, the
President was clearly not in the
mood.
This is not the first report that
the President has taken the bit
in his mouth since Korea. His
callers say that the jaunty man
who some people thought smiled
too often and had too cocky a lift
to his shoulders has changed.
One expressed it that he isn't
really cheerful any more. An
other said nobody would ever COM
plain again that Harry Truman
was cocky.
Economic Advisers Move In.
Now that the military has had
its day, the economic advisers
move in. Their job is to appraise
the economic consequences of the
new expenditures and suggest
what program should be adopted
in the interests of stability. This
story will be developed in a re-
port from the Council of Economic
Advisers and in hearings on pro-
posed legislation by various con-
gressional committees.
The Presidents program as so
far outlined hangs on the assump-
ton that strict credit curbs and
very much sitter taxes will be
imposed. If these are obtained
and full-scale war can be averted
it is hoped that a wide range of
controls can be avoided.
The Senate Banking and Cur
rency Committee is showing a dis
position to leap for the credit
curbs. The Senate Finance Com
mittee, containing such famous
conservatives as Chairman George.
Senators Millikin. Taft and Byrd,
is awaiting the tax message with
ell-controlled patience. It won't
be long. however. before they are
with the taxes-or-
controls choice by the Fair Deal
President and immediate action
will be requested.

pretty good idea Henry McLemore'
Of what you'll find in Luxembourg.
Take the Ducal Palace, for ex-
ample, where H. r. H. the Grand
Duchess Charlotte lives. stood
across the street from the palace,
which is right in the middle of
town, and watched the sentry
guarding it pace back and forth.
Out Of curiosity I counted the
steps it took him to walk from
one end Of the palace to the other.
The number was SO.
Even Small Child Knows.
It's tiny place. only three
stories high. but 1t has every
thing even a small child knows
a royal palace should have. There
are innumerable turrets, towers
and spires, balconies with delicate
grill work, coat of arms all dore
in rose, blue and gold, and count
less little windows, just the right
size for a golden haired princess
to lean from and wave goodby to
her prince as he rides away on a
snow-white charger.
There is really nothing out of
keeping with the palace in the
whole country, including the size
OF the country itself. It's greatest
length from north to south is
81 miles. and from east to west
IS miles. A giant in seyen-league
boots could cover its 999 square
miles in a day, unless he was dis
tracted by some Of the most beau
tiful scenery to be found any,
where in Europe.
The city of Luxembourg is
dotted with forts and watchtowers
built by succession of conquerors,
and looking at them with the hills
and forest as backdrop, they ap-
pear as if they were built to be
used by toy soldiers.
It is hard to believe that the
Luxembourg of today has had
such turbulent past. It must be
the quietest capital in the world.
There is no hustle and hustle
whatsoever. You can walk its
streets for hours without giving
more than a passing thought to
traffic.
Appreciative of U. S. Help.
No people in Europe are more
appreciative of Americas help
during and since World War III
than those of Luxembourg. No
better evidence of this can be
found than In the beautiful way
they keep up the. American Mill
tary Cemetery some three miles
from the city. Here. on gentle
slope leading to a great forest, are
the graves of $500 men. most of
whom laid down their lives during
the Runstedt offensive in the Ar
dennes. Gen. George S. Patton's
grave is here, marked by the same
type wooden cross as the graves Of
the men he led. His grave is
placed in. front Of his men, be-
meath an American flag, in about
the same place he would stand to
review his troops.
Gen. Patton's dog tag is nailed
to the back of his simple marker,
just as are the dog tags Of his
soldiers. People Of half a dozen
nationalities were about his grave
when we were there and our guide
said, How I wish he were in |
Korea with his men and tanks TO-
day! He'd show them how to
fight"
Within the year the wooden
markers will be replaced by crosses
of granite. Work on this project |
has begun already.
It would be impossible for cities
the size of London, New York or
Chicago to do what Luxembourg
has done to beautify its streets,
but it's too bad they can't. Here
in Luxembourg every lamppost,
about halfway up, wears a circu-
lar collar in the form Of flower
box. and right now every box is in
full bloom.

WOrknlen's
Nat. Treasurer
Cives Views

DR.. Sol Silverberg, national
treasurer of Workmen'S Circle,
said in an interview with the
Post last week that the danger OF
a de Gaulle or a communist
government in France is now
past. This is the firm conviction
of the liberal French political ele-
ments, as revealed in converse
tions with him on his trip to
Europe and Israel several months
ago in company with four other
labor leaders from the US.
He told of the generosity of
Frances recent premier Queille,
who in appreciation of the fine
non-sectarian work of the Jewish
labor movement during the war,
approved legislation which gave
citizen status to a large number
of DPS, now living in France.
National Workmen's Circle, he
said, is cooperating with Norway's S
labor in building homes in new
Israel village to commemorate the
recent plane disaster in Norway
of % children from Tunisia. This
too, is in acknowledgement by
Norway of the successful efforts
of labor at the beginning of the
war, to rescue key European la
Dor leaders marked by Hitler for
determination, including the pre-
sent Norway Minister of Labor.
On the subject of Israel, DR..
Silverberg says he was amazed
and impressed by the things he
saw there and favorS the several
projects undertaken by Work
mems Circle, such as an emer-
gency and public health clinic in
the Negev, and the building of a
nurses home there.
However he is not a political
Zionist, he adds. He explains
that he objects to the pressure
exerted on DPS to have them GO
The Arizona post., 1950-02-03

to Israel, resulting in IsraePs in
ability to absorb them as rapidly
as they arrive and causing much
hardship. "They (the Zionists)
sacrificed human welfare for
political ends" he declared, add
ing eff they had absorbed $4,000
or $4,000 less there would have
been no need for reception camps
and arrival would have been de-
layed not more than six months"
He doesn't believe that the Zion
lists needed to use such intense
propaganda" with the DPS to
create heavy immigration, in or
der to raise monies for UJA. He
exonerates the Israel government
from any of this blame.
DR.. Silverberg is the brother
of Sol Silverberg, E. Silver, and
as national treasurer is the watch
dog over the fraternal orders in
surance fund of $11,000,000. He
returns later this month for a
short vacation.

Juneau Fishermen Hope For New Grid In Sprinq

A new 320-foot gridiron for Ju- neau's small boat harbor, in time for boat repairing next spring, was planned recently at joint meeting of fishermen, city repres- entatives and Frank Metcalf, ter ritorial highway engineer. The final approval of the plan de- bends on allocation of funds col lected through the territorial mo- tor fuel taxes.
 Cost of the project is estimated at $30,000. The planned grid would accommodate boats on both sides and would make it possible to work on as many as 20 boats of mixed sizes at once. The pres ent facilities will accommodate no more than five.
