what was described as now a
purely academic question.
The same feeling must prevail
in Paris at present when the
Western nations are attempting
to put in effect their disarma-
ment plan. 1t is realized that
this will be difficult in the face
of the formal opposition of the
U.S.S.R. But it is also felt by
the Western European and Ash
attic powers that by bringing up
extraneous matters, such as the
massacre of American prisoners,
the attention of the delegates
would be diverted and might
result in less progress than
hoped for.
This. at least. is the explana-
ton given by some official quar-
tiers in Washington as to the
reasons why the United Nations
has kept so silent about one of
the most dastardly crimes ever
perpetrated in history.
The State Department is be-
ing warned in a friendly man
ner by administration legislators
to point out to our Western
Allies the Importance of making
common cause with the United
States in raising their voices
against Red crimes in Korea.
Senator Edwin johnson, a
staunch supporter Of the United
Nations, has cabled Secretary
General Trygve Lie asking him
the $64 question: Why has not
the United Nations taken cog
nizance of this crime? Other
Senators and Representatives
are expected to follow up with
public statements and denun-
Citations of the lackadaisical at
titude Of that organization I'M
der whose flag our men are
fighting.
The passive attitude of the
United Nations and particularly
that Of France and Great Brit
ain may have serious repercus-
Sions when the administration
asks next year for increased
economic and financial as
sistance to those two powers.

The President has been &C.
cused Of playing politics in his
surprise appointment of Gen.
Mark Clark as Ambassador to
the Vatican. The hierarchy's
statement indicates that such
political appeal as that action
may have had did not carry all
before 1t in that communion.
The Vatican matter seems to
rankle among Protestants. The
public discussion has somewhat
subsidized. but in any form it is
still an inevitable question. The
question is usually put in the
form not Of whether it Is q
good or bad thing but Of
whether it will happen. It also

ton about who will be nomi-
mated and elected President.

Constantine Brown:

1t is difficult to understand
the strange silence of the United
Nations in regard to the mas
sacre of nearly 5000 United
Nations soldiers - overWhelm-
ingly Americans-by the Chinese
in Korea.
Although our men are fighting
under the United Nations flag
in carrying out a mandate from
that organization. not a single
word of censure or condemna-
ton of the Red armies has been
placed on record at the General
Assembly which is now meeting
in Paris.
According to some officials in
Washington, our British and
French Allies looked on the dis
closures from Pusan with good
deal of suspicion when they
first were revealed to the public.
They were inclined to think that
Col. Hanley's report was a
trick" by the American high
command to gain some advan-
tages in the cease-f1re negotia-
tons with the enemy.
The fact that the Chinese and
the North Koreans had turned
down an international Red
Cross investigation earlier, when
stories of barbarism against
prisoners first had been men
toned by Gen. Ridgway in his
regular reports to U. N. head
quarters, apparently made little
impression on our associates.
They were brushed off as mot
fully substantiated" and the OPP
position of the Peiping govern
ment to a Red Cross probe was
attributed to the Communists
"inferiority complex" In any
event. it was argued, it would
have been unwise to bring up
such matters at a time when
the conclusion Of a cease fire
agreement appeared so near.
Even if these reports were true,
it was said in October. the men
could not be brought back to
life and the agreement on an
armistice to be followed by
peace in that area was far
more important than raising

other tax bill superimposed on
the present one, which has
hardly been digested.
Even Mariner S. Eccles, for
mer chairman of the Federal
Reserve Board, who has always
advocated higher and higher
taxes when needed to balance
budgets, is quoted now as OPP
posed to any rise in the tax
rates. In his speech in New
York he declared that the tax
system has been strained to the
limit" and IF it is expanded
any further. that will be the
ruination of incentive"
1t will be interesting to see
whether the labor union leaders
will accept this approach or in
sist on higher taxes. II the Ia
Dor union group argues for
higher taxes, 1t probably will be
the only one that does take that
view.
But if tax rates aren't in
creased and the Federal budget
faces a big deficit, what will the
Government do? It cannot go
on spending indefinitely with
higher and higher deficits. The
only course it can follow will be
to reduce expenses. Representa-
tive Reed of New York, rank
ing Republican member of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee, predicts that Congress
at its next session will be more
economy-minded than it has
been in recent years. Appar-

tional policy as against further
increases in tax rates and

Lowell MeHett::

The word from the White
House is that the Democratic
platform for the coming cam
paign will be as fortnight on
the subject of civil liberties as
that Of '48. The answer from
the South is the same defiant
Rebel yell as in other years.
And the politicians who live by
the race issue declare that this
time they will really wreck any
Democratic candidate. President
Truman or anybody else, who
runs on such a platform. CThey
propose, of course, to wreck Mr..
Truman, regardless.D They will
do it, they say. by diverting the
Democratic vote in the South to
a truly strong independent can
didate. which the eager Strom
Thurmond did not turn out to
be. They will name somebody
like Dick Russell or Harry Byrd"
And Republican politicians,
paying courtesy calls in the
South, express pious regret that
the Democratic Party doesn't
have the right kind of national
leader somebody like Senator
Russell or Senator Byrd"
The coupling of these two
names particularly by the
Republicans-is interesting in
the light of their legislative
records. For, apart from the
civil rights issue. their records
are not in the least alike. Sena-
tor Byrd's is one to satisfy the
most rock-ribbed of Repub-
licans. Senator Russell's the OPP
posite.
Americans for Democratic
Action has just issued it's anal
ysis of the voting in the recent
session of Congress and it's ap-
praisal of the individual
members. ADA is an ultra
liberal organization. Yet on a
selected list of IL issues it
reports Senator Russell voting
what it considers correctly seven
times. incorrectly only four, not
voting once. None of these votes
related to civil liberties. Where
Senator Russell went wrong, in
ADA's opinion, was in voting to
require payment In strategic
materials by India for a loan
Of American grain. voting
against price rollbacks, voting to
conflne Government subsidies
to the big airlines and voting to
allow husband and wife to divide
the family income for tax pur-
poses.
Where Senator Byrd went
wrong, by this appraisal, was
every time he had a chance,
which was 10 times. He was
absent twice.

Labor has also published O re-
port on the voting records mad4

In Defense of Senator Russell
Two Organizations Anoyze Senate Voting Records
And Find His Very Different From Harry Byrds

How did Senator Byrd vote?
Right straight across the
board, against q free and
strong America" except on the
two occasions when he was alb
sent.
The issues included school
construction In defense areas,
restriction Of troop shipments
to Europe, live stock slaughter
ing quotas. soil conservation
funds. European economic aid,
war profits tax and medical
school aid.
So it would appear that the

Doris Fleeson:

The preachers are taking aft
er the politicians on the issue OF
morality in government. The
Democratic administration in
power is naturally the major
target.
1t is an issue on which Prot
estants and Catholics are not
divided.
On-the-spot observations In
the Midwest and Southwest in
dictate plainly that the Profess
tant clergy is flexing it's muscles
with respect to current scandals.
Over the week end the Roman
Catholic hierarchy made its
formal attack on moral corrup-
ton" in public life.
Perhaps it does not yet add
up to a formidable trend but it
easily could. Certainly it rep
resents a situation that Presi-
dent Truman. who is only be-
ginning to show signs of aware
ness, will ignore at his peril.
The clergy. by and large, like
other Americans. may have had
its doubts about one thing or
another that the Government
has been doing. Generally
speaking. 1t has pretty well
managed to subdue any temp
tation to use the pulpit as a
forum for such doubts. The

issues used do not duplicate
the ADA's, being somewhat
weighted as to labor's special
interests. Read how your
Senator voted-for or against

union members are advised.
On this basis Senator Russell
voted for a free and strong
America seven times and against
the same only once. He was
absent on two occasions.
That one vote of Kussell's,
however. was pretty serious
from the viewpoint Of the AFL.
