Doris FIeeson::

When a Senate attache tele-
phoned Senator Paul Douglas
that President Truman had
called two strikes on him in the
matter of three Federal judge
ships in Chicago, the Senator's
Quaker faith lost out for 60
seconds to plain rage. Then
he laughed.
We'll, he has lots of CUTS" !"
he said. About the judgeShips,
no comment.
After a thoughtful week end,
the former Marine has decided
to give battle. He expects to
win.
His proposal to poll the city's
lawyers on his versus the Tru-
man selections is made in good
faith; Of course he has no con-
troll over their ballots and many
of them are not Douglas men.
But with anything like a fair
count, he is confident that his
two candidates who were re-
jected by the President-William
H. King and Judge Benjamin
Epstein - will overwhelm the
Truman substitutes.
Only last week perhaps
with the Illinois situation in
mind and knowing that his
judgeship choices were the
weaker ones-the President
implied that bar associations
were only stubborn defenders
'of this best of all possible
worlds. Perhaps against a con-
servative Senator, at least with
public opinion. Mr.. Truman
could make this derogation

the allies in Europe with respect
to Germany. Would a rearmed
Japan be a militaristic menace?
The answer usually heard is
that, unless Japan is provided
with a Navy which is not
planned for her-she could not
disturb the peace of the Far
East. This is but another way of
saying that the British and
American navieS would have the
principal responsibility for the
defense of Japan and for pro-
tecting the transport of any of
her divisions of troops to the
mainland of Asia should war
with Russia develop there.
Certainly if World War III
breaks out. there will be opera
tionS in the Far East in which
Japan will play part. The con-
summation of a peace treaty re-
leases Japan to begin to take
steps as member of a collec-
tive-security team-to help re-
sist large-scale aggression.
Much depends, however, on
how much progress the Commu-
nists may take in inflltrating
inside as they did in China.
Also, economic support has to
be given the Japanese people
so that they can sustain an
armament program on the scale
needed to stabilize the Far East
ern situation. On paper, it's a
good plan. Whether it ever will
be carried out depends on many
factors not clear as yet, among
them financial aid for Japan
and Communist tactics.

stick. Governors and Presidents
have often fought the ultra
conservative bar and won.
But any such attack on Sem
ator Douglas must fail. Besides
the Senator was careful to in
clude in his requested poll both
the Chicago Bar Association,
which has only three Negro
members who were recently
acquired, and the Cook County
Bar, which consists of Negro
lawyers. Mr.. King, just by the
way, is a foremost advocate of
civil rights in race-conscious
Chicago.
The attitude of the Chicago
Democratic organization could
make difference In the results
of the Douglas poll if it is not
truly behind him. He has Jake
Arvey'S assurances that it is.
All Senate precedent is at
Douglas back. The Illinois lib
eral has acted in accordance
with time-honored practice and,
historically, he has only to
proclaim the Objectionable
nominees personally obnox-
ious' to him. He does not wish
to do it that way; he is satis-
fled he can maintain his posi-
ton that his nominees are the
best qualified and wholly de-
serving.
Not being without humor, he
is aware that some of the SEN
ators on the far right will be
distressed by the necessity of
having to vote for one Fair
Dealer as against another. This

Lowell MeHett::

They tell you never to under.
estimate the power of woman.
What they fail to tell you is
that it may be possible to over
estimate 1t.
The President, Messrs. Will
son, Johnston, Disable and all
the others engaged in the strug-
gle to prevent runaway infla-
ton, have counted heavily on
the American housewife. Ap-
palled by the prices she meets
in the market place, they have
expected her to rise as one
woman and demand protection
from Congress. There would be
a flood Of letters and kilograms,
they thought, and the telephone
wires would sizzle. There might
even be march on Washington
by women welding brooms.
But the great uprising has not
occurred. Most every woman
you meet seems to be angry at
prices and thinks something
should be done about them, but
the anger isn't being organized
and carried to the Congress.
Busy Lobbyists for special inter-
ests, according to House Majority
Leader John Mccormack, gather
in the corridors outside the
House to write amendments for
House members to offer. But
there is no report of any of them
being trampled. or even having
an elbow jostled, by delegations
OF women aroused by the wrong
being done them.
Come election time, a year
from now. if things have got
worse in the meantime, as seems
likely to be the case, women may
exert their powers, but it will
only be the power to punish, not
to prevent.
This seeming or real indif-
ference Of the women doubtless
is comforting to the Congress
members engaged in overriding
the administration. It enables
them to agree with Representa-
tive Wolcott of Michigan, master
mind Of the Republican-Dixie-
crat coalition in this particular
fight. Representative Wolcott
protests "the campaign of un-
truth and calumny" designed to
show that "the overwhelming
majority Of Republicans and not
a few patriotic Democrats were
sabotaging price, wage and credit
controls" whereas they are
merely seeking to eliminate
"socialistic power grabs"

paign OF calumny. the Michi-
gan man hasn't said. He may

the air, however, and some
agreement with Spain will go
far to eliminate difficulties in
arranging that part of the
defense system.
With the Korean conflict on
the Way-although not far yet
to some kind of settlement, if
only a cease-fire, and with the
Iranian situation boiling over as
the United States takes a more
direct hand in settlement Of
what could become an extremely
dangerous situation, the Eu-
ropean members of the NATO
who heretofore have stood in
Spain's way should be aware
that the peril of Soviet agrees
sion is drawing closer to them
than ever before.
Admiral Sherman's mission to.
Madrid and whatever modera-
ton of Spain's policy grows out
of it as well as the Senator's
visit must be matched by a
similar relaxation of Britain's
and Frances opposition to the
participation of the Franco re-
gime in Western defense ar
rangements.
The United States is more or
less in the middle of the whole
matter, with a large and vocal
part of the American press and
Congress pressing for Spain's
inclusion and our principal allies
in Europe opposing such action.
The American government it
self has moved and is moving
closer to a formal commitment
to. Spain, but it has been pre-
vented from moving all the way
by the fiat opposition of London
and Paris.
Coming weeks may see
important progress toward the
removal of barriers which now
stand between Spain and the
other Western powers.

Greater demands have been
made on the talents of Ginger
Rogers than those made in "The
Groom Wore Spurs" at Keith's,
but it must be admitted that
she conducts herself with nobil-
Iity. It's movie and she acts

were one of those old light. So

John Mills and some other men
of matchless courage defying the
odds of survival. The manage
ment insists this Is definitely not
any British movie in whcih you
ever saw John Mills defying death

Miss Rogers, in "The Groom

lawyer who is hired by a clown

of a financial jam. You could
almost write the script yourself
but for Universal international it
was written by Robert Carson,
Robert Libott and Frank Burt.
1t has seemed logical to them
that their cowboy would marry
his attorney as the easiest solu-
ton of his problem, which makes
him something of an outstanding

After Pearl Harbor, by what he
regards as dirty trick, he is in
duced to enlist as an officer candi-
date in the Coast Guard and is
sent to the services Academy at
New London. Neither his aSso-
IciateS here nor the rules of the

Idividualism, the core of which is
his sense that he would be making
more money and having a better
time at his old job in the ship
yard.
This turbulence keeps him from
getting commission, but the
Coast Guard can use a hulk of
fuckers size. It gives him non-

port where, as cockswain on a
Landing Craft Infantry. he proves
a competent seamen in spite of his
temperamental shortcomings. Be-
meath his crude, muscular exterior,

There is no questioning the
honorable intention of Hollywood

drama.

is in the nature of the story. True,

Miss Raines. Much more of the
footage of "The Fighting Coast

memo on romance than is given to
the walloping job the service per-
formed in World War II.
By far the best passages in the

actual combat in the Pacific. These
excerpts from the official photo

on the conflict between Tucker
and Donlevy for even such nice
American girl as Miss Raines.
It is always this way, of course,
between war and the Hollywood
film formula. the more so with
each film paying tribute to the

Eskimo Group Will Perform At Fur Rendezvous

A troupe of about IS Eskimo people are practicing and perfect ing show of Eskimo dances to be performed at Anchorage during the Fur Rendezvous.
 Last year the group that went down to put on an Eskimo show were so popular that the Rendez- vous officials were unable to find a place big enough to take care of the crowd that wanted to see and photograph the dancers. They have promised to find a place suitable this year to take care of this popular part of the program of events.
 Heading the group again this year is Sammy Mogg, and his wife, Carl Kutuk, Eddie Ahkolik, Alysius Ayak, MT. and Mrs. Tho mas Assila, MT. and Mrs. Ellana, Mrs. Jimmy Sirlock, Bernard Ku- ginguk, Tony Pusrak, George An gupuk, Robert Okpealuk and Joa- kim Koyuk.
 The group comprise the best dancers from Diomede Island, Shishmaref, and King Island, and are scheduled to leave on Thurs day of this week.
 The group of dances are cere- monials, and family dances, in- cluding two parts of the Whale Dance, Mitt Dance, Cutting up of the Seal in an Igloo and a Koyuk Comedy Dance originally planned to make the children of the vil- lage laugh. A Seal Hunting Dance is also part of the program and is we'll known here.
 They are scheduled to put on two shows every day of the Rem dezvous.
 In addition to the dances they will do native sports including High-Kicking, Rope Tricks and Blanket Toss.

 Rain-swollen rivers were crest ing and slowly receding after a three-day rampage which had left an estimated 5000 persons home less. British Columbia counted at least five dead after a weekend of floods and storms.
 A state of emergency was in eff feet in Western Washington and, five national guard units were called out as rampaging rivers crashed through dikes and spilled out over lowlands. >.
 The Red Cross here said nation al headquarters had made disas- ter appropriation for the area.
 Governor Langlie proclaimed a state of emergency after some 4,6O0 persons had been driven from their homes in Northwest Washington. Another $50 were homeless in British Columbia's flooded Fraser River valley.
 Rivers spilled their banks after three days of record rain. The weather bureau said early today clearing weather had generally eased flood conditions throughout the area. All streams were falling with the exception of the lower reaches of the Green River in western Washington.
 Rivers also were receding in British Columbia and the situa- ton was reported greatly improv- ed at Princeton where the Iula- meen and Similkameen Rivers had found channels through an ice jam.
 The highest water in many years was reported on the Skagit River in northwestern Washing ton. More than 1000 persons were evacuated from the low-lying Skagit delta. The communities of Hamilton and Conway were virtu- ally deserted and children and the aged were removed from the Stanwood area.

Man Who Admitted
200 Housebreakinqs
Is Indicted by Jury

Kenneth v. Won Der Heide, 81,
of Chillum Heights, Md, who po-
lice quoted earlier this month as
admitting more than 200 house
breakings. today was indicted on
charges of breaking into four
apartments in the Kenmore, 5415
Connecticut avenue NV.
He was captured August 4
when he entered one of the apart
ments and was confronted by De-
tective William G. Schillig, who
had lain in wait for him.
One of the indictments accuses
Won Der Heide of breaking into
the apartment where he was
caught. The other three accuse
him of breaking into three other
apartments and stealing prop
erty valued at more than $4,000,
One of the indictments lists the
biggest haul as $1,005 from the
apartment of Mr.. and Mrs. Regi-
nald T. Clare.
The indictments against Won
Der Heide were among 16 re-
turned by grand jury before
District Court Judge Burnita Shell
ton Matthews.
