try was led to believe-through
FDR's inaugural address, for ex-
ample-the money chang
erS had to be driven from the
temple" Here at last-the peo-
pie thought-was a reform ad-
ministration with all the virtues
necessary for a new era. Gradu-
ally materialism began to eat it's
way into officialdom. The Works
Progress Administration and the
Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration were used to win
the 1886 election, and many
Government departments which
disbursed Federal money used
their power and influence to help
win the 1910 election. Under the
Roosevelt administration, the
doctrine that the lend justifies
the means" became the para
mount approach. 1t became the
custom to argue that. after all.
the other party was much worse.
Once an important Federal Of
fetal testified before a congress
sional committee that he had
violated law because he
thought the objective was good.
Later on he was promoted by
Mr.. Roosevelt to a higher post.
For years now political in
f1uence has been gnawing inside
Government. Many honest
minded officials who never
profited a nickel themselves, and
would not tolerate any illegal
use of public money. have never
theless dispensed political favors
out of which privileged citizens
made money.
President Truman came into
Office with a long background
of experience in a Kansas City
political machine. He believed
in the Jacksonian philosophy
of party politics. He made no
bones about it. So did Warren
Harding, a Republican Presi-
dent from 1920 to 1923. Now
the. day of reckoning has come.

The visit of Prime Minister
Winston Churchill to Washing
ton early next month is regard
ed by those close to President
Truman as somewhat untimely.
The vibrant Briton is, of course.
always welcome at the White
House. But he has chosen an
unfortunate time to call on the
President, on the eve of the
opening of the second session
Of the 82d Congress, when so
many domestic matters will
keep Mr.. Truman's mind pre-
occupied.
Mr.. Churchill is, of course,
eager to have an exhaustive
conversation with the President
and his advisers because condi-
tlons in Great Britain and in
Western Europe have become
such that he feels that some
thing must be done quickly" to
prevent the alliances we have
formed across the Atlantic from
breaking at the seams. This
matter is regarded by the Brit
lSh Prime Minister and his
Western European colleagues as
tar more important to the world
than the domestic problems Of
our Chief Executive.
President Truman, while fully
acquainted with the great diff
f1culties which have come to the
surface in Western Europe in
the last few weeks, is more con-
cerned with the many problems
which have developed in the
Nations domestic field since he
left for his vacation in Florida.
He is said to feel that because of
the pressure of work in handling
those matters he may not have
time to give his undivided at
tentlon to the British Prime
Minister.
1t is already known that the
British statesman will not press
our Government for additional
grants. loans or handouts. He is
expected to put before Mr.. Tru-
man and his top advisers the ac-
tual plight of the members of
the Western coalition, which
though unpleasant to hear is
factual.
Mr.. Churchill is aware of the
growing dissatisfaction among
our military and political men
over the slowness of the Western
European rearmament effort. He
IS also aware of the criticism
directed at him because he
stated bluntly in the House of
Commons-and thus told us in
dlrectly-that Britain is unable
to meet the commitments made
by the former administration re-
garding the stepping up of his

Holiday Greeting to Pentogon
Truman Severely Dissatisfied With StoIng and Slow Poo

President Truman returned
suddenly to Washington to put
a burr under the saddle of the
Pentagon.
The State Department can
expect a similar holiday greet
ing as soon as he can get
around to it.
No new crisis brought him
home. But he is severely dis
satisfied with what he regards
as the stalling and slow pace of
events in Korea, in Europe and
in the Middle East.
Rather than bring a big pa
