The Neglected Spud
Cincinnati Enquirer)

(Clnclnnatl Enqurer) If you'll be diverted for a moment from less serious affairs we'd like to call your attention to a problem of mounting importance. We understand that the mashed potato, dear to our hearts in the days of our youth losing popularity in America. Not only that, but potatoes in general seem to be
 losing ground They're drowned upon by men and women of pudgy proportions, and by others who are striving against time and appetite, to retain their svete contours.
 To this is matter for jocularity-and we're only the spud business to the extent of two rows. each 12 feet long and of doubtful productivity. It isn't the economic side of the problem that worries Social and psychological implications appear para mount.
 What, ask with alarm, will this nation do when suddenly some fine morning, awaken to find roast beef and mashed potatoes stricken from every menu? Already youngsters who should be asking potatoes for breakfast being ndoctrinated with suggestions involving such things Munchies Flakies Nutties and Topples That mainstay of the Cincinnati pioneer the old fashioned potato pancake, is hard to find as emeralds in clover patch Boled-potato- with jacket-on-you who should walk hand in hand with every fried fish-where art thou these strange days? And you, strong and sturdy Baker, puffing light as snow from your shell-whats become of you? Even on those train menus where once you ruled as king you're neglected. There was a time when fellow could make meal from you for shiny 10-cent piece
 True potatoes can be found on every hand. But what a travesty this modern is, compared with the hardy dishes of those other days You find them sliced thin and robbed of their goodness in oil paper sacks stuck boards in bars and filling stations Chicken steak chop and fish restaurants serve them as a feeble dish most Frenchmen wouldn't recognize Alas and alack The tuber which saved Ireland has come evil days.
 We're out to organize society to be known as The establishment Preservation of the Mash ed d-Potato with Steak Gravy Benevolent Association Our goal will be mashed potatoes every day, fried potatoes-us that isfor breakfast and bigger spuds on dining cars. Let the chps-potao chps-fall where they may. Who cares?

Hanley Probe Flushed

Significantly, however, Senators Smith of Maine and Hennings kept quiet. They offered no ob- jections to Gillette's resigning.
 Other colleagues of the likeable Senator from Iowa have been sur prised at his failure to push probes of certain significant developments during the last campaign, among them the letter written by It. Gov. Hanley of New York explaining how Governor Dewey had promised him certain jobs in order to get him to withdraw as a candidate for Governor of New York. In this letter, Hanley !eferred to money he had borrowed from Congress man Kingsland Macy which he later said was to settle an old family debt in Iowa.
 Investigation by Senate agents showed there was no Hanley fami- ly debt in Iowa However, no wit nesses have been called by Sena- tor Gillette. Governor Dewey has not been asked to testify, nor Kingsland Macy, nor Hanley him. self. In fact, no hearings have

Pooling Around

T am tired of fooling around with this committee without a counsel" the Missouri Senator ob- served. Senator Henrickson and I are the only two lawyers on the committee, and we don't have time to go to the law libraries to do the research"
 Meanwhile, Gillette had been mounting steam. Suddenly he ex- ploded.
 T have been trying to get re- port from the subcommittee for six months" he shouted. This whole business has caused me a great deal of personal discomfort" ]"
 Sputtering and fuming, Gillette complained that the subcommittee hadn't consulted him but had "em- barrassed" him by it's handling Of the Maryland investigation.
 With final roar, he announced 1 that he was submitting his reslg- nation as chairman of the Elections committee.
 Nebraska's COP Sen. Ken Wherry urged him to reconsider.
 I hope this isn't the result of anything I have said about rush. ing the report" Wherry blurted. Gillette then offered to tell Wherry or Rules Chairman Hay den of Arizona why he was quitting, but no one else.
 Hendrickson also tried to talk Gillette out of resigning.
 T think it is bad policy for anyone to resign. l have often wanted to resign myself. But we take on these responsibilities, and somehow we have got to carry them on," the New Jersey Senator pleaded.
