HIKING GROUP PLANS
MADE FOR This WEEK

Members of the Shank, Ship
and Shutter" Club liked to Lemon
glacier last Saturday. According to
Rev. H. E. Boyer who has accom-
panied the group on their hikes so
far, land the club members are
most appreciative of his helpful
guidance), the 12-mile hike was
the most difficult of any taken this
year. Some parts of the trail would
have taken the agility of a noun
tain goat. However, the group
seemed to find the hike most in
teresting and enjoyable.
The trail took them to the face
of Lemon glacier which has no APP
parent movement, and brought the
group in sight of the ice cap. One
of the striking features on the trail
was the 150-foot waterfall about a
mile below the face of the glacier
Here the stream drops into can
yon that suggests the Grand Can
yon. Many excellent pictures were
taken.
Weather permitting, the group
will leave at pm, Friday evening
to hike to the top of Mt. Roberts
staying there overnight. On Sat
urday they will continue to Sheep
Creek Basin and down to Thane. II
the weather is bad, the group will
lake the Thane-Dupont trail, leav-
ing at 7 am, Saturday morning.

strated successes in the Korean
fighting-or in the defense of
Formosa if the Reds attack there
and it could be shown that Pres
ident Truman, by firm and prompt
action when Korea was attacked,
had really placed a check on Com
munist aggression.
On the domestic front, the is
sues have been shaping up for
more than a year. After Presi-
dent Truman was elected-and
during his campaign for election
he promised many things which
he has been completely unable
to accomplish. His civil rights
program is one. Others are COM
pulsory health insurance. Federal
aid to education, repeal of the
Taft Hartley labor law and, more
recently. the Brannan production
payments farm plan.
The Republicans have complied
series Of charges against the
Truman adninistration-That it
has been guilty Of waste and ex-
travagance; that 1t has by its acts
encouraged imitation, sending the
cost of living higher and higher:
that it has kept taxes high--the
only real tax relief coming dur
ing the Republican-c controlled 80th
Congress, through bill passed
over Mr.. Truman's veto, and that
it has failed to balance the
budget.
The Democratic campaign man
ayers, however, will point to in

Per Cent

While there are economic fac
tors which account for much OF
the growth of these cities, their
basic strength is that they are
capitals in lands in which the
central government directs every
thing. Indeed, it can be laid down
as rule that even when there is
but little local industry to aid
a capital in its growth, it almost
automatically draws to itself a
minimum of 2 per cent and an
average of about S per cent of the
national total once it is well
launched on a centralized system.
Therefore 3 million for Washing
ton may be a conservative esti-
mate. barring revolt against CEN
traliZation.
There is another entirely new
factor. increasing income and
inheritance taxes will diminish
the comparative Importance of in
dividual wealth until what will
really count will be ones daily
take-home wage. Top Govern
ment jobs, when all perquisites
are allowed tor. will mean high
net wages. Pressure for such jobs
will increase, bring in more people
to Washington, just as pressure
for governmental favors has been
the capital-building factor in all
centralized regimes. And it is
only the centralized regimes which,
have stayed in the game of gov
ernment for any length of time.
AS Americans we may not like
to admit this. but it is q fact
which is now at our door.

than frightened. Out in Colo
RADIO, where the Democrats have
been counting on defeating Re-
publican Senator Millikin, with
Representative Carroll, an in
tense Fair Dealer. the Republi-
cans have persuaded former Gov.
Carr, a strong vote-getter, to head
the COP ticket as candidate for
Governor, and Republican pros
poets are looking up there. too.
War Major Issue
In New York, a demand that
Gov. Dewey run again for chief
executive of the State is under
way. Mr.. Dewey, however. has
said firmly he will not. The feel
ing is growing that he is needed,
if there is to be war, and the pres
sure on him may be intensified
before the Republicans meet in
convention in September to pick
their gubernatorial and senatorial
candidates. Mr.. Dewey would be
the strongest candidate the Re-
publicans could name, it is gen.
orally agreed.
Both the Democrats and the
Republicans realize the terrific
impact the war is having on the
political scene-and both are pre-

structed by the Federal Govern
ment or fostered by it. They will
attack the Republicans as OBJ
Structionists who are delaying
the welfare state.
To this the Republicans will re-
ply that the Truman program is
driving the country first toward
bankruptcy and finally toward So
cialism, with the peoples liber-
ties more and more controlled. and
eliminated. AS a matter of fact,
liberty versus socialism was de-
clared by Senator Taft and others
to be the major issue of the COM
ing campaign and election earlier
in the year. Important Demo-
Gratis, including former Secretary
of State James F. Byrnes, who is
to be the next Governor of South
Carolina, have taken the same
line.
Communist Matters
Another issue which the Repub-
licans are now committed to press
is charge that the Democratic
administration and Democrats in
Congress have resisted Republican
attempts to fight Communists and
fellow travellers within the Gov
eminent. The Hiss and other
cases OF Communist trials and
convictions, and more recently
the charges leveled against the
State Department by Senator Nc
Carthy of Wisconsin, Republican,
will have their place in this line
of attack.
In a measure, the coming con-
gressional elections are warming
up gallop for the presidential
election in 1852. President T9u-
man, according to White House
circles, will almost certainly be a
candidate for denomination and
reelection two years hence. A
number of potential and probable
aspirants for presidential nomin-
ations are taking their chances at
the polls in November, however.
On the Republican side are War
ren of California, Duff of Penn
sylvania and Taft of Ohio.
Democrats who would like to get
into the race-should Mr.. Truman
not be a candidate-include
Roosevelt in California, Bowles in
Connecticut and Lucas in Illinois.
The man most mentioned. how
ever, as a presidential candidate,
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, will
not go before the voters in the
coming election. That he may,
however, be drawn into the wal
effort of this country seems en-
tirely natural. If he occupies i'm
portant position and renders great
service, his value as a candidate
would mount tremendously. On
the other hand. if he becomes a
strong arm of the administration,
he might be tied hand and foot
and out of the political picture in
SO. even more effectively than he
was in 1948.
Evening star., 1950-08-06

pairing to meet it as a major issue.
The Democrats, while insisting
that politics should end at the
water edge, have already under
taken to show to the voters that
the Republicans in Congress are
responsible for the Red attack on
South Korea. The Democratic
Congressional Committee has sent
to all Democratic congressional
candidates a long memorandum
insisting that the Republican
votes cast in the House against
a bill to give $3.50 million eco
nomic aid to South Korea in 1949
SO encouraged the Reds in North
Korea and in Russia that the at
tack was launched a year later.
Along with the memorandum is
sent the voting record of each
Republican in the House and in
the Senate.
The Republicans, for their part
are putting out a series of white
papers setting forth the mistakes
made by the Roosevelt and Tru-
man administrations and their
complete failure to bring about
peace. Further, they are under
taking to show that the Truman
administration has increased vast
| ly this country's commitments and
at the same time has let the armed
strength of the country deterior-
ate.
Republican Charges
Republican National Chairman
Gabrielson, speaking at Salt Lake
City last week, said that the Dem
ocrats would use the Korean wal
to censor from your memory the
fumbling, stumbling ineptness oil
their administration" He added
that the Republican Party would
not be silenced on foreign policies
in this campaign.
The grave question raised by the
Korean war, Mr.. Gabrielson de-
clared, lis the competence of the
present Democrat administration
either to achieve peace or defend
the United States"
That is the real issue, on the
foreign policy side of the cam
paign, which the Republicans are
raising. They are pointing out
that since the close of fighting in
the Second World War the Tru-
man administration has been un-
able to bring about peace or the
signing of peace treaties; that de-
spite the expenditure of billions of
dollars to build up Western
Europe economically and to
strengthen it militarily, and the
expenditure of billions for mill
tary functions of our own, we have
not demonstrated striking power
in Korea. They ask: What have
they done with the money!"
This line of campaigning and
crgument, however. could be
knocked into a cooked hat in the
next couplAof months by demon
