rrH ( e.aaI I. Gains office after a inference of opinion over whether the Sen- ator was "expendable"
 Time reporter Frank McNaugh- ton had rated Cain among the eight most expendshla Senator's an opinion with which most news men heartily agree. Cain, how ever, did not agree, and angrily called McNaughton to his office.
 T had in mind to pull trick on you that would just break your health" he stormed, his face livid with rage.
 Lunging out of his swivel chair, the Senator started around the desk. McNaughton jumped up prepared to defend himself.
 "If ycu've got any tricks up your sleeve, you go ahead and pull them," challenged the mild- hammered little reporter.
 But Cain changed his mind, ordered McNaughton out of his office instead, then proceeded to air his wounded vanity on the Senate floor, where he told amused colleagues it wasn't true that he was one of the Senate's most ex- pendable members. The more he talked, however, the more the Washington Senator convinced his listeners the opposite
 Snarling defiance, Cain roared up at McNaughton in the press gallery, calling him "smug, arro- gant, self-centered, vain and frus- trated."
 Exactly the reverse, happens to be true. McNaughton is an able, modest, sincere newsman.
 Then Cain sank to a new low in statesmanship. Lashing out from behind his Congressional inn munity, Cain called McNaughton "4-F in war and a 4-F in peace"
 "McNaughton has undoubtedly encouraged other men to die, but he has never stood on the side lines and watched them die," har- angued Cain.
 T lost even what had been my desire to laugh in the face of this pigmy," he sneered. T did not even want to bat him around physically because that would have been like punching bag of mush."
 Senators sat silent, shocked at the vitureration of their Republl- can colleague from Washington.

Bungling Senator
(St. Louis Star-Times)

(St. Louis Star -Times)
 There were valid why the State Depart ment interceded with Federal judge to have Val entin Gubchev sent back to Russia instead of to jail But Senator Wherry refuses to recognize them.
 The Gubitchev deal, Wherry charges, demonstrates the "unftness" of Secretary of State Dean Acheson It does no such thing It marks the secretarys alert ness to delicate problems of international relations problems that involve the welfare of American citizens abroad
 If Gubitchevs 15-year sentence had been carried out he would have become the darling of Soviet pro- pagandiss His case could have been cited in defense of Communistic governments persecution and arrest of Americans.
 Wherry's blast serves only one purpose: It enables the propagandists to salvage something from the Gubitchev case after all. Now, they can say that Gugitchev's release something of fuke-that if it hadn't been engineered quietly, men like Wherry would have blocked it with the support of American public opinion.
 Senator Wherry is playing the bull in the china shop again. If anyone's unftness has been demon- strated it is his as a spokesman in matters involving diplomatic relations.

Perle Mesta, Madame Minister to Luxembourg, is back in town after only six months overseas-offici- ally for consultation with Secre- tary Acheson. Real reason, how ever, is to see if she can talk President Truman out of an am- bassadorship. After all, Eugenie Anderson, of Red Wing, Minn., IS Ambassador to Denmark :. The joint chiefs of staff have sent Secretary Acheson a stiff memo asking that he stop the shipment of steel from western Germany to Communist China. High Commissioner McCloy had given his OK. to the shipment of l5.000 tons of steel rails to China

 Other smaller countries also didn't want to overtax their mili- tary budgets, all of which paved the way for two important pro- Csals:

 2. Arming a west German army of 15C,000 men. l

THUMBS DOWN ON SPAIN
Neither proposal got anywhere

Neither proposal got anywhere.
 The Spanish proposal, long ad- vocated by the U. s. Joint Chiefs Of Staff, was vigorously opposed by British Defense Minister En- manuel S'hinwell, who explained that the British Labor Government had only margin of six votes in the House of Commons, and that bringing Spain into the North Atlantic Pact would lose Premier Attlee about 40 votes. Political opinion in British labor circles, he said, was adamant against dic- tator Franco.
 So the Spanish proposal was dropped.
 Secretary of Defense John- son has told friends that the Tru- man administration is not anxious to resume full-scale relations with Francos until he gives Protestants the right of free worship. Spanish Protestants are now virtually sec ond-class citizens, it being difficult for a Protestant to win promotion in the Spanish army or in other government posts
 The plan for a 15O,0O6-man Ger man army was made by the British, who argued that such a force could rot be a threat to France unless equipped with an air force. The British proposed giving the Ger mans land-army equipment instead.
 But the French said no. A Ger man army, they argued, would do a right about face, and go over to the enemy in case of Russian at tack. So the idea of a German army was also dropped.
 That left western Europe still considerably shy of the armies considered necessary to hold back a Soviet attack, and with some private talk among European de- fense chiefs that the United States should keep an army permanently on the continent.

Pucheeo and Willis
Glass Of Golden
Gloves Tourney
BY Oscar Newman


Two sixteen year old lads, Rudy
Pacheco and Plummer Willis,
proved to be the class of the 1850
Upper Midwest Golden Glove tour
nament by their excellent perform
ances throughout the four day
fest.
In our minds the most outstand-
ing of the two was the slim Plum
mer Willis, a product of the Star
Journal summer boxing school
Willis. in his first year of COM
petition, has won the novice and
city bantamweight titles and came
very close to upsetting Emil Wa
silowski. 40 and so Golden Glove
champ, in the finals last Monday
night.
Young Plummer, throughout the
tournament, upset the dopesters in
showing an amazing ring general
ship not found in veterans of two
or three years competitive expert
ence in this particular tourna-
ment. His road was a hard one to
climb but by hard punching, fine
condition, and a fighting heart he
wound his way to a final match
with the champ, Emil Wasilowski.
The Wasilowski hurdle" in the
road was little too high for him
to jump over. He did, however,
force Wasilowsh to call on every
bit of his ring experience to exc
out a decision after he was floored
twice by the defending champ.
The match preceding this bout
was the darling of the tourna-
ment; one that every fight fan in
the auditorium had been eagerly
waiting for. Rudy Pacheco VS..
Johnny Shand (the defending
champ. Early in the tournament
both lads had established them
selves as top contenders; Shand
was expected to be the ultimate
victor.
From the first second of the fl
nal match with Pacheco he knew
he had fight on his hands. Pach-
eco had to come from behind after
Shand threw everything at him in
Guiding the ring posts in the first
round. Pacheco survived this bar
rage and Immediately started his
own leather bombardment in the
second round. Dark haired Pach-
eco walked slowly to his corner at
the close of the third and last
round. heartbroken because he
honestly felt he had lost the fight
and the championship. He was
met by his trainer who grabbed
and fondly kissed him for his fine
performance. When the decision
was announced giving the little
Pacheco the nod the auditorium
roof-top vibrated from the noisy
reception given the new champ as
George Bartin placed the golden
glove medal around his neck.
Shand, the loser, could hardly
fight back the tears but, like the
great little competitor he was he
heartily congratulated Pacheco.
Most of the other bouts were
below par considering tourna-
ments of yesteryears.
We did notice a few things dur
ing the course of the evening. How
the ring wise Don Dakota solved
the deep crouching Joe Mcdonald
of the Glencoe team; something
no one else had been able to do.
He should be a strong contender
in the Chicago tournament.
