Truman Is Too Busy
With War Duties 10
Campaign, He Says
By Joseph A. Fox

. The whiStle-StopS will see no
more of President Truman this
year, it seemed certain today. as
the Chief Executive announced
, that he had cancelled all speaking
, engagements on account of the
Korean war.
Word from quarters close to the
President was to the effect that
he would make no personal ap-
pearanceS in the upcoming con-
greSSional campaign, with the pos
Sible exception of a trip into his
home State of Missouri.
1t had been generally assumed
that the President would keep out
of the November political melee
as far as possible. in order to
maintain the bipartisan line in
rebuilding American defenSes
against communism.
He gave support to this view at
a news conference late yesterday
when a reporter recalled that
Labor Day customarily marked
the opening of fall political ac-
tivitleS and asked what the PreSi-
dent planned.
Keeps Busy at Night.
Mr.. Truman responded quickly
that he had called off all speaking
engagements because he was being
kept pretty busy at the White
House, even at all hours of the
night.
Later, a presidential associate
said that Mr.. Truman and his
advisers have agreed that political
transforming would not be good
policy. The possibility was held
out, however, that Mr.. Truman
might feel free to go into Mis-
souri,, where the Democrats are
trying to upset Senator Donnell,
Republican, with Thomas C. Hen
ningS, jr.. a st. Louis lawyer, in
a key race.
There is some thought, too,
that the President might be in
clined to get back on the road
again as he promised to do
during the May "non-politi-
cal" trip west, if the Republicans
sought definitely to make the ad-
ministration's foreign policy a
vital campaign issue.
But Mr.. Truman also made it
clear again that he wants the
non-partiSan approach to foreign
affairs continued.
He stressed this in refusing to
comment at his conference on
the charge by Republican mem
berS of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee that the admin
iStration had given Russia "a
green light to grab whatever it
could in China, Korea and For
moSa."
The President, however, was
ready and willing to talk and be
quoted on the assertion by Sen
ator Wherry, Republican. of :
Nebraska that the blood of Amer
leans dying in Korea is on the
shoulders of Secretary of State
AcheSon.
Calls View Contemplate"
Permitting direct quotes-an
unusual procedure-the President
said:
That is a contemplate state
ment and beneath comment"
Advised of the Presidents re-
marks, Senator Wherry fired back
that the Presidents failure to
remove Acheson, after repudiating
his stupid foreign policies, is
contemplate" !,
Incidentally, Senator Wherry'S
view that Secretary Acheson's
policies were repudiated by the
Presidents action was shared by
Senator STEMS, Democrat, of Mis-
Sissippi in a Senate speech. And
in Cleveland, Senator Taft, Re-
publican, Of Ohio got into the act,
asserting that the Administration ]
doesn't know where it is going. :

ZONES. Many more win be injured
and mutilated. Some will be Grip
pied for life.
From the point of view of fire
the home is one of the most dam
gerous OF all places. Yet It need not
be. The hazards are simply the
result OF ignorance, earelessness
and forgetfulness. They are created
BY human failure. And that can
be eorrected--in most instances
easily and inexpensively.
To attain this goal, the National
Board of Fire Underwriters has
issued a new illustrated booklet
THE Fire safe Home. II may
be obtained without charge upon
request to that organization at
s5 John ST.. New York City, z.
The booklet takes the home owner
on tour Of his property in search
OF common IRE hazards. II points
out the conditions most likely to
cause a blaze in each part of the
specific advice on how to eliminate
the dangers.
Every home owner should
promptly take advantage of this
opportunity. Fire loss has been
running higher this year than
last-during June 1t reached the
highest figure for that month re-
corded during the past 81 years.
And, as the waste rises. the death
and injury toll rise with it. Make
your home safe from fire.!
