Eisenhower Visits Committee.
Gen. Eisenhower today visited
the Republican National Commit
tee while it was holding its first
session. He gave them q talk
which even some of his strong
opponents for the nomination
approved. He promised to use
the party organization in the
campaign. and not to 60 wander
ing off to fight in other pastures
AS the late Wendell L. Willkie
did in his fight for the presidency
Of 1910.
How desperately the Republi-
cans are trying to heal the
wounds in their party is indicated
by the fact that a serious effort
was made by some of the Eisen-
hover SUI porters to have Senator
Taft as the vice presidential
candidate. Indeed, there were
conferences with Senator Taft
himself and the Eisenhower lead
ers to bring this about.
Senator Smith of New Jersey
admitted he had been a prime
mover in the drive to put Senator
Taft on the ticket with Gen.
He even left an i'm
preston that Senator Taft might
have considered it.
Senator Saltonstall Of Massa-
an Eisenhower supporter,
also was interested in the move
for a Taft vice presidential nomi-
nation.
Bitterness Continues.
Many of the Taft supporters
today made no attempt to con-
ceal the fact they are still very
bitter toward Gen. Eisenhower,
and particularly toward Senator
Lodge. the Eisenhower campaign
and Gov. Dewey. They
claimed that the old Dewey Or
ganization had put across the Els
enhower nomination, and that
the New York Governor would
continue to dominate and direct
the Eisenhower campaign.
Senator Lodge is moving out Of
the Eisenhower management, go-
ing back home to campaign for
his own reelection. Gov. Dewey
kept as much in the background
as he could at the convention.

Steel

ficial said the shortage had re-
suited In q nearly complete i'm
balance Of inventories"
Ore Supply Also Cut.
Nearly 13 million tons Of steel
already have been lost because OF
the strike. Producers will be un-
able to make up the loss which
is nearly equal to the total yearly
output Of mills in the United
Kingdom. and almost half as
much as Russia produces in q
year.
There Is another grave aspect
Of the strike which will affect
steel production next winter. The
great iron ore mines Of the Mes
sabi Range in northeast Mime
sofa are closed, too. Most Of this
ore is transported to steel mills
of the Midwest and Pittsburgh
through the Great Lakes. Because
ice closes the lakes to navigation
five months of the year, enough
ore to last through :ne winter
must be carried during warm
weather. Next winters supply of
ore for the mills now is being cut
down by the strike.
Government economists agreed
the steel shortage will seriously
affect the whole American econ
omy. But they disagreed whether
it will be inf1ationary or def1a-
tionary. It will result in a serious
shortage of consumer goods,
which would tend to be lnfiation-
ary. resulting in a bidding up of
the price of things in short sup
ply. However. oy throwing large
number of people out Of work for
long time, the shortage would
have a def1ationary effect.

Housing Association
Defends Function as

The Washington Housing Asso-
citation, center Of a Community
Chest fund controversy last May
reported yesterday its function Il

agencies concerned with housing

said that the four public agencies

The Association was granted
continued Community Chest sup
port last May after an earlier
action by the United Community
Services Board Of Trustees bar
red it from Chest funds for 1853.
The report Of the Association s
Board Of Directors related the
groups role to the work Of the
National Capital Housing Au-
thority. the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission, the
Redevefopment Land Agency and
the District Health Department as
follows:
The housing authority builds
and manages low-rent public
housing.
The planning commission makes
overall plans for city development
and screens plans for slum clear
ance and redevelopment.
The land agency buys sium land,
clears it and sells It for redevelop-
ment In accordance with approved
plans.
The Health Departments health
engineer bureau. along with the
Board for the Condemnation of
nsanitary Building and the Lii
eense Bureau, enforces health and
safety regulations in existing
housing.
The housing association acts as
the watchdog of the public in
terest. to guard against delays,
possible inefficient administration
and administrative policies which
may not suf1lciently take into ac-
count the human needs in hous-
ing"
Cites Grass Roots Help.
The report added that broad
citizen support of programs for
the public good cannot be built upI
by otiicial agencies-it must come
from the grass roots. from the
citizens themselves. And it must
be chanelled through recognized
organizations If it is to be effec-
tive"
The resolution granting the
Chest support for 1858 called for al
study Of its purposes and methods
BY an outside group.

and this week by the Taft people
Each candidate will have head
quarters here and the jam is
likely to be tremendous.
A Stevenson-R Russell ticket for
the Democrats has been widely
predicted. But Gov. Stevenson has
mot said he would run, and Sena-
tor Russell has not said he would
be a vice presidential candidate
with Gov. Stevenson or anyone
else. He continues to insist he is
a candidate only for the presi-
|dency.
Thinks Russell Would Agree.
One Democratic Senator from
the South. in Chicago today, said
be believed Senator Russell would
agree to run on a ticket with Gov.
Stevenson, Notwithstanding the
Of Gov. James F. Byrnes
of South Carolina that Gov.
Stevenson, because Of his liberal
attitude on the civil rights pro-
gram and segregation. would not
|"do."
Meanwhile Gen. Eisenhower and
|other Republican leaders pondered
what they should do to reunite
their strife-torn party.
Gen. Eisenhower made i'm
mediate, friendly overtures to
Senator Taft and to Gov. War
Iren and Mr.. Stassen, his defeated
opponents. He has asked all of
them for their support. He got
promises from all three.

selection Of new Republican

while they sleep. Ever since the grammar
school teacher first wrote it ON the blackboard,
they've been reminding themselves that any
one who wants glow IN his cheeks and

lots of fresh air every day.
The idea that breathing much fresh air can

the brain Of cobwebs has been romdly pub
licized at least since BENJAMIN Franklin slept
with his windows open wide. However, re-
cent careful inquiry into all that medical men
and research chemists know about air has
yielded some surprising news: there is no re
corded proof that air contains any mysterious
health-giving properties or that people who
breathe a great deal of fresh air enjoy better
health or more vigor than people who don't.
In fact, fresh AIR at the wrong time and in
the wrong amounts makes some people sick

In short, health authorizes would have you

Mills. who is himself an expert ON medical
aspects of climate and weather, have greatly

DR.. Mills, incidentally, recommends that

adjusting to cold air and wind.
Enfhusiassic Gym Teacher
CONSIDER what happened in an Ohio school
one windy day last winter In arithmetic class,
a boy suddenly felt dizzy, noticed strange red
welts on his arms and legs. The school doctor
took close look, asked some questions and
wished for the dozenth time the physical
education teacher wasn't so enthusiastic
about fresh air. He shunted all the boys out
doors for an hour daily in every kind of

all boys don't benefit from too much outdoor
air = and some get sick from it. The lad with
the red welts ana dizziness was hypersensitive
to thermal conditions like wind and cold.
1--WE had rough time trying to convince
the gym teacher" he told me, that child
can be allergic to cold air or to wind just as
someone else might be allrgic to ragweed. He
can't seem to believe anything bad about
fresh air, just like so many of the mothers l

As for the notion that plenty of sunshine

that keeping warm is far more important If
your youngster doesn't want to 60 out and

If he does want to, be sure he's warmly

say that sleeping IN draft increases your

In all fairness. it must be stated that it has
