Understands the Red Dictator
Churchill Convinced That He Alone Among Statesmen of West
Can Bring About Successful Meeting of the Big Three

of view of Russia's S interests, this
frantic rehabilitation" was
highly welcome. Those who
claim to know Stains mentality
say that from that time on the
Red dictator had nothing but
contempt for the men who per-
mitted this weakening of their
forces-President Truman and
Prime Minister Attlee.
There is a strong possibility
that with Mr.. Churchill as the
head of the government
should he be returned to power
and with the obvious increase
Of Americas military power,
Stain may give some serious
thought to the risks Russia
might incur should this re-
armament reach an apex in the
near future. He has little con-
Sideration for the Western
European armed forces but has
healthy respect for the Anglo
Saxons. He is also said to
worry over an actual German
rearmament. He has a whole
some fear of the German
soldiers. And it is more than
likely that with Churchill at
the head of the British govern
ment the inclusion of Germany
into the present coalition would
be greatly speeded up.
There are the considerations
which have led the aged Brit
ish statesman to declare that,
If returned to power, he hopes
to bring about a meeting with
Stain whose psychology he
understands probably better
than any other Western politi-
cal leader. Leading from
strength has always affected the
thinking of the Red dictator.

Lowell MeHett:

Just about the best name that
has been suggested to President
Truman in his search for sue
ceSsor to Democratic National
Chairman William NJ. Boyle is
that of Mrs. India Edwards, the
present vice chairman. If a
house cleaning is called for it
would be a natural job for a
woman. And Mrs. Edwards has
been around the place long
enough to know where to look
for the dirt; probably is itching
to be allowed to get at it.
Thus far it has only been
proposed that she be made
chairman ad interim. to occupy
the Office until a man is found
for the post Mr.. Boyle is due
to depart next week. on the eve
of All Saints Day to be exact,
and the indications are that no
suitable successor has yet been
discovered. If Mrs. Edwards is
given the task of holding the
fort until the winter meeting
of the National Committee, it's
good guess that the commit
tee will be happy to have her
remain throughout the cam
paign year. For the lady knows
her stuff and once the novelty
of having a woman chairman
had worn off the whole party
organization might find itself
functioning with the efficiency
that has long characterized the
Women'S division.
Folks familiar with the COM
mittee'S work recall the COM
petence of Mollie DeWson as
head of the women's division
and the similar competence of
Dorothy McAllister. the bright
young woman she trained to
succeed her. There are those
who say that while neither of
those women could have done
the job that James A. Farley did
in helping Roosevelt to his first
nomination, each of them de-
serves as much or more credit
for electing him and keeping
him elected. A similar compari-
son might be made between for
mer chairman Bob Hannegan
and Vice Chairman India Ed
wards.

David Lawrence:

Everybody is off the hook
now politically speaking - on
the matter of sending an am
bassador to the Vatican.
BY deciding not to make a
recess appointment of Gen.
Mark Clark, Mr.. Truman has
saved the day-for everybody
in politics. There probably will
not be any United States Am
bassador sent to the Vatican in
the foreseeable future-largely
because of the way a vote on
the issue itself will be side
tracked.
Members of Congress in both
houses will be asked to vote
next January on whether the
law should be amended to per-
nit military officers to accept
diplomatic posts. If the reso-
luton isn't adopted, there would
be no point in bringing up the
nomination of Gen. Clark for
confirmation in the Senate. The
special legislation affecting Gen.
Clark may never come out Of
committee in the House-at
least not until after the 1852
campaign-and, if it does, the
proposal may be rejected on
the ground that selection for
diplomatic posts and other ci-
william posts should be made
from the retired list rather than
from officers on active duty.
There are dozens of political
excuses that can be made on
the roll calls in Congress and
issues raised to prevent the pro-
posal from coming to a vote
or from getting a clear express
sion on the issue of a Vatican
Ambassador itself.

However. Mrs. Smith does
have one drawback. Like other
women, she is only good at a
job she can put her heart. in.
There is some doubt that she
could put her heart into the
election of the now leading Re-
publican candidate, who hasn't
yet succeeded in completely dis
avowing Mccarthy and or Nc
Carthyism. Mrs. Smith is very
much on record on that subject.

will get whatever political
credit he had in mind among
supporters of the idea of send
ing an ambassador to the Vat
ican, even though it is never
accomplished.
Some OF the persons who are
in position to know the views
of important members Of the
Catholic hierarchy in this
country say. however. it was a
mistake on the part of the
President to raise the issue in
the way he did, because it
stimulates friction on religious
questions.
Cmlous1y enough, President
Truman and the State Depart
ment did not follow customary
diplomatic practice in han
ding the nomination of Gen.
Clark. The rule is to ask the
country to which the ambassa-
dor or minister is to be sent
whether the particular individ-
ual is acceptable. This proce-
dure is sometimes frustrated by
the necessity for prompt action.
Thus. in the case of former
Mayor O'Dwyer of New York
City. the Mexican government
learned of the appointment only
a few hours before it was made,
so that there was no opportu-
nifty to express any considered
opinion.
In the case Of Gen. Clark,
the Vatican learned about the
appointment for the first time
through the newspapers. This,
it is said, did not please Vati-
can circles. United Press dis

Mize, Hopp Came Through;
Champions Tied for Lead

The New York Yankees won
the championship in 1949 and
1850 with late-season acquisitions
from The National League. To-
day the Bombers are banking on
another Johnny-come Lately from
the senior circuit to insure success
in their drive for the American
League pennant.
Johnny Sain. veteran right
handler, is the latest Yankee inn
portation from the National
League. The Yanks acquired
Sain from the Boston Braves yes
terday and celebrated the pur-
chase by trouncing the Browns,

first-place tie with Cleveland as
the Indians had dropped a 80

Lew Burdette, a minor league
pitcher, will join the Yanks in
Washington Saturday. The 81
year-old veteran, a World Series
star In 1948, is tabled for relief
duty. He won only five and lost
13 for the Braves this season
Sain, q 20-game winner three
times. was waived out Of the Ma
t.onal League. To make room for
him, the Yankees released Jack
Kramer, another veteran right
handler.
The Yanks dipped into the Ma
tional League in August, 1949, and
bought Johnny Mize from the New
York Giants. Mize's big bat helped
win the pennant and also the
World Series. Last year the Yanks
procured Johnny Hopp from Pitts

EN- ROUTE TO AMARILLO,
Tex. Aug. 30.-The twice-beaten
Redskins, expecting another air
attack, will be two-touchdown un-
derdogs when they take on the
Detroit Lions in Amarillo tomor-
row night. The squad was due to
arrive late this afternoon and
work out tonight at Sandie Sta
dium.
One of the dark-horSe title
threats in the approaching Ma
tional Football League race. the
Lions showed a lot of passing
talent in tying the Philadelphia
Eagles. 17-17, and in beating the
New York Giants, 31-21. A repe-
tition would. send the Redskins

ing for their first victory.

they'll face Bobby Layne, who last
season had 152 compilations in 1886
tries. good for 1928 yards-high
for the year-and Is touchdowns.
Have Crack Receivers.
Layne's receivers are what is
worrying the Redskins. At one
end, the Lions have Columbia Bill
Swiacki. who. when last seen by
the Tribe, was disappearing over
the goal line one dreary after
noon in New York with the touch
down that enabled the Giants to
come from behind and win a 24-21
victory. Swiacki specializes in
long throws.
At the opposite end is big Leon
Hart. an expert hook-pass receiv-
Ter. The Lions strategy, accord
ing to meager scout reports, is to
get the ball to the former Notre
Dame star and let him go for
himself. Sammy Baugh had Hart
on his side in post-season game
at Honolulu last January and says
he found him to be an excellent
target.
Layne also throws a screen pass
to Pete D'Alonzo, rookie fullback,
that is quite effective.
