Lowell MeNett:

Run Of mine Republicans must
look back with longing to the
good old days Of last winter.
In those distant days there
seemed to be only two serious
questions confronting the party.
One was whether it was actually
true. as so many Of their lead
ers said. that any Republican.
even Senator Taft. could win
this year. The other was
whether Gen. Eisenhower could
be persuaded to run.
The second question has been
answered. Gen. Eisenhower has
been persuaded to run. or at
least to accept the nomination
If it is offered him. The first
question hasn't been answered.
Of course, but has been slightly
changed. The query now Is
whether any Republican-even
Gen. Eisenhower-can win.
The bitterness that has de-
veioped in the battle for dele /.
gates is responsible for the
changed outlook. It is such a
big bitterness that even the most
cynical politicians are wonder
ing how the contending factions
can be brought together after
the convention. Both. principles
and personalities are involved.
It may be that, in the language
of the late Jim Watson (Senator
James E.. of Indiana,) the Re-
publican Party Is always able to
rise above principle ii it becomes
necessary. But the hard core Of
internationalists backing Sen
ator Taft are putting a good
deal of passion behind their
principles.
Regardless of his hackers. the
men who got him into this fight.
there is Gen. Eisenhower him
self. Is he ready to subscribe to
the Watsonian philosophy?
A clue may be given next week
when the candidate meets the
press in the little Kansas town
where he lived as q boy. II he
stands firmly for the foreign
policies he has appeared to
esponse heretofore-and which
unhappily bear so close q re-
Semblance to those Of the Tru-
man administration-the breach
within the party won't be healed
at Chicago or before, the elec-
tion, no matter who is nomi-
mated. II he endeavors to paci-
fy his opponents by equivocat-
ing or lodging, he is likely to
take lot Of the steam out Of
the great crusade organized In
his behalf.
Master though he Is known to
be Of the answer that turneth

may be permitted a prediction in
the event that he Is elected
President. the same British
press may be disillusioned. Gen.
Eisenhower. faced by growing
American sentiment in favor of
independent policy in foreign af-
fairs. must necessarily take note
of that sentiment il an era Of
self-reliance is to be established
among the nations allied with
us.
The view that is held here
about Senator Taft and Gen.
Macarthur is based on a steady
campaign Of distortion. One
would think from hearing COM
ments here that the Americans
are q bellicose people intent on
large-scale war at the slightest
provocation. One is inclined to
think that Senator Taft's public
expressions Of support for
Britain and his votes for send
ing troops to Europe have never
been emphasized here. Many q
Briton seems surprised to learn
that, despite Senator Taft's
criticisms of the extent Of eco
nomic aid and his efforts to
modify some Of the commit
ments on the military side. he
has held firmly to the view in
his speeches that an attack by
Soviet Russia on the North At
lantic Treaty members would be
an attack on the United States.
It is apparent that the British,
along with other Europeans, are
going to take a deep interest in
the campaign. despite the official
attitude of avoiding any acts or
statements that could be deemed
intervention or the interposition
of a European desire for a
friendly administration to Sue
ceed the Truman regime.

on the occasion Of Gen. Eisen-
hower's recent visit to Britain,
said Of him:
"Just seven years ago our
streetS-after so many grim
years Of battering and black

filled with vast, rejoicing
crowds celebrating We Day.
"V-E Day was the victory of all
of us. great and humble. as Mr..
Churchill said in his unforget-
table speech to the throng at
Whitehall; but in q special
sense, OF, course, it was Ike's
victory. AS Supreme Comman-
der Of all the Allied Forces in
the great and glorious venture
Of liberation and the defeat Of
the Nazis, he had borne q lonely
and tremendous responsibility.
The moment Of complete
triumph was his moment; and
with us, alongside US. here in
London where the campaign had
been planned and whence it
was launched he had shared a
long, stern ordeal.
"These memories are not idle
or insignificant. They mean
that here in London we always
think of Ike as a friend and
good companion-'one of US
and whatever may be his for
tune in the new setting to
which he goes he is sure of
British affection. gratitude and

which we hoped to solve through
the Marshall plan. The Ameri-

not in cash but in the creation

changed in 1850, when we were
confronted with an actual
military problem. We were glad
to meet it. American Substance
