This Changing World
Hearts of Red Dictators Gladdened
By Strikes Outside the Iron Curtain

political. Communist leaders are
sounding the alarm. The re-
armament of Western Europe
they say. means only "a dis
astrous war"
For the time being the dress
,rehearsals for major walkouts
involve only workers who soon will
be called to unload and transport
large quantities of American wal
material. These have been only
partially successful, but we must
look to the time when tanks, guns
and other equipment begin reach
ing French and Italian ports be-
fore we can tell how successful
the efforts of the Communist
dominated unions will be.
Workers Put on Notice
Longshoremen, dockw orker
and railwaymen once more have
been put on notice by their
unions that they must refuse to
handle "the lethal weapons which
America is presenting to the
French and Italian peoples to
commit mass suicide" Workers
in some French plane and gun
factories were tried out last
month and the Communist ef-
fort was fairly successful. It has
delayed the already slow produc.
ton of military implements.
Unlike their colleagues in this
country. European Communists
have other means than ideologi-
cal augmentation for enforcing
strike. They have well-organ-
lied squads of muscle-n1en-part
of the Communist army which
still exists in France and Italy-to
apply pressure wherever ordinary
arguments fall on deaf ears. This
army is underground, of course,
but it is a Well-known fact that it
exists.
For the time being there is
little strike activity in Western
Europe. Except for some walk
outs arising from demands for
increased pay, there are no large
scale strike movements underway.
1t appears that leaders like
Maurice Thorez and Palmiro
Togliatti are waiting for new in
structions from Moscow.
The men in the Kremlin are
weighing their major movements
carefully. They are expected to
give the word whenever other
plans. which may be maturing in
their minds, are ready. When the
signal is given they will expect
synchronization Of their moves
with those of their stooges in the
countries outside the Iron Cur
tain.

tic Party and stand in history
as its creator constitutes one OF
the greatest appeals the third
term holds for Harry Truman.
There are Democrats who still
think wishfully that Mr.. Truman
is a liberal only because it is
politically expedient. Their prin-
ciple argument is that the Pres
ident's Southern ancestry is suffl-
cient to make him less convinced
than he says he is of the right
eousness of civil rights.
"Will Keep on Trying"
But the President now has
drawn around him a circle which
does not for a moment question
his steadfastness in liberal objec-
tives. Using the South's own ex-
preston they assert that under
meath his genial smiles is butt
headed man who will keep on
trying TO get his program across
because it is good for the country.
The machinery OF the liberal
Democratic Party is firmly in the
Presidents grasp. He made Ger
tain of this early in 1949 with
the appointment Of his personal
associate, william M. Boyle, jr..
as national chairman. Their
close cooperation has effectively
numbed any show of independence
in the various States.
AS a result there is no longer
any significant pressure among
Democrats for any candidate
other than Mr.. Truman. So long
as a third-term candidacy looms
on the horizon, it is highly un-
likely that any drive on behalf of
any one else in the party could
get going. Almost dead are the
echoes of earlier suggestions
that Gov. Adlai Stevenson and
Senator Paul Douglas of Illinois
showed promise or that Gov.
Chester Bowles of Connecticut was
a logical successor to Harry
Truman.
Keep Runway Clear.
It takes time to build a candi-
date for the presidency. If the
Presidents candidacy is not al
ready inevitable" each month
that passes makes him closer to it.
The party will demand the
strongest" candidate and its
voice will be reinforced by the
many powerful presidential ap-
pointees who owe their place to
Mr.. Truman.
These people are already doing
their part to keep the runway
clear. When eager friends of
Secretary Of Defense Louis john
son decided upon a great New

Surplus Property Agency
For District Asked in Bill

A District Educational Agency
Tor Surplus Property would be
established under a bill introduced
in the Senate by Chairman Neely
Of the Senate District Committee.
The measure would give the
District a status similar to the
States for acquisition of surplus
Federal property for educational
institutions.
The District Commissioners
would appoint a director for the
agency and an advisory board
Of not more than 10. These
members would include represen-
tatives Of the unsupported, tax
exempt. and non-profit educa-
tional institutions in the District.
The sum of $4,000 would be
authorized for use as revolving
fund for necessary expenses. Into
this fund would be deposited
money from District Government
agencies and private educational
institutions authorized by law to
participate in distribution of sur
plus property.
The measure is somewhat sim
ilar to previous bills pending in
Congress, but not enacted.

social and economic reforms Of
New Dealism and Fair Dealism,
and with the same wearying repe-
tition with which some Democrats
exploited the Herbert Hoover
depression episode of the early
30s long after it had worn thin.
Whether the professional spy
hunters will swing many votes, in
the end. remains to be seen. But
it is certain they can create dis
turbing, doubt in our Government
and it's institutions among some
people by their flimsy insinua-
tiOnS.
Used Freely and Loosely.
The Communist issue was used
freely and loosely in the 1916
congressional elections, but 1t is
likely that other things rather
were responsible for that Re-
publican victory-war restrictions,
continued controls, and the like.
It was capitalized again in 1948
but obviously. from the result,
people were more concerned about
the Republican 80th Congress
derelictions on matters closely
affecting them than in scare
stories designed to divert atten-
ton from the main issues.
The issue has assumed new
vitality in recent weeks through
the Alger Hiss conviction. the
Coplon trial, the DR.. Klaus Fuchs
atomic spy conviction in England,
and the fear generated generally
by the atom and hydrogen bomb
developments. There is uncer-
tainty and confusion in the public
mind that Is easy to play upon.
Some politicians, in seeking po-
litical capital. either for them
selves or for their party or both,
often become irresponsible as they
>train for an issue.

While labor strife in the United
States-and particularly the coal
strike-cannot be described as
primarily the work of Commu-
mist agents. its effect nevertheless
is favorable to Soviet aggressive
ness.
Setback to Arms Industry.
The coal strike, even if termi-
mated in the near future. already
has caused a serious setback to
American industry. Some plants
now working on urgent armament
orders are compelled to slow down
their production because Of the
coal shortage.
Nobody in this country or any
where outside the Kremlin can
gauge the intentions of Prime
Minister Stain and his advisers
today. Whatever decisions for
peace or war they may make de-
pend on how strong or weak their
intended victims are.
There is no doubt that crippling
strikes in essential industries are
an invitation to aggression. Some
