the discipline she handed out to
her children was caused by un-

rificing fashion excitement In

away from.
Dore Schary in his brief "wel-
come speech" to the fashion ed
litors mentioned that here in Amer

they often create a fashion and
see it later accepted, which is
quite = q tribute to the designing
talent Hollywood possesses. and
in turn Hollywood accepts fashions
that have been created elsewhere
and uses them in films, thus stress.
ing the realism that films are
striving for today.
Mr.. Schary told us that for 9

Other bits of information we
picked up at this party included
being told that MGM picked up
the tab for Elizabeth Taylor's

$500. The ''local girl making

think you have gained or lost
delegate strength since Gen.
Eisenhower has returned?
Senator Taft: Oh, I have
gained. I have gained some
56 or so since then, and I can't
find a single one that Gen.
Eisenhower has gained. Yester-
day, somebody in Utah came
out and said that four or five
Utah delegates had gone over

they are just as inaccurate as

your hackers are going to steam

your comment on that?
Senator Taft: see no reason

Gen. Eisenhower from Abilene

he plainly believes his chief diff
ference with you Is on foreign
policy and particularly the Mu-
tual Security Program. What
would you say, or how would
you say, how far apart are you?
Senator Taft: On domestic
policies, it seems to me that Is
right. I think Gen. Eisenhower,
since he has come back. on most
of these tough questions. has
gradually come aorund to the
position which I have occupied
and really established for the
Republican Party in the past.

Comments on Charges
About Texas Delegates

Reisel: Gen. Eisenhower sug-
gested that your people down
in Texas were unethical and
stole some delegates down there.
What is your comment on that?
Senator Taft: The whole
Texas situation is question Of
whether you can have Demo-
Gratis move into the Republican
primary and caucuses and take
over the party and nominate
the candidate. The advertise
ments in Texas clearly invited
every Democrat. They said that
you can go into the Republican
pre-conventfon caucus and the
very next day you can 60 and
vote in the Democratic primary,
and then you can vote Demo-
cratic in the election. They were
invited to be Republicans for a
day and they moved into those
caucuses. They were admittedly
all Democrats.
OF course, you like recruits,
but we want the recruits in the
election. Here Is party that is
a real party from Texas. They
built the party up gradually

and they are a real party. They
are a minority party. Unless
they protect themselves from
Democratic infiltration they are
bound to be taken over and
completely eliminated as a
party.
Reisel: Senator, you said that
y5u thought Eisenhower would
lose votes whenever he started
taking a stand?
Senator Taft: Yes. he has

much and still have defense?
Senator Taft: I think the

represented his views. It wasn't
the Taft people. because the

he could have meant that. be-
cause $40 billion from $40 bill

disarmament. with any such a
tax cut.
. However. he has modified
that, I think. to cut some ex-
penses, which is very different
from an $85 billion budget cut,
and he has also modified the 40
to 80. But on the other hand, he
has said that he does not agree
that you can make the tax cut
the second year, which I believe
you can make. and which I am
in favor of. But apparently, yes

BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, June 2O.-Here
are the opening remarks of Sem
dtor TAFT on his television and
radio broadcast here last night:
I welcome this opportunity to
greet millions of my fellow citi-
zens Of all parties. and state the
principles in which I believe,
and the domestic measures ia
vor to carry out those principles.
I am a candidate to represent
those Republicans, a vast ma
jority Of the party, who believe
that victory can only be achieved
by presenting our principles and
program clearly to the people.
without modifying those princi-
Piles to secure the votes of New
Dealers; that we cannot win by
approving the objectives of the
New Deal, and the Truman
Acheson foreign policy, and
merely promising that we can
carry them out better. I don't
believe the New Deal wing of the
Republican Party can guide the
party to victory in the future
any more than in the past.
Our campaign must be a cru
sade to return honesty and in
tegrity to the Washington Gov
ernment, liberty and peace to
our people.
We must promise the expul-
sion Of the money changers from
the temple, and the appoint
ment Of honest men, and only
honest men to Office.
~ Our country is a great coun-
try because it has had 165 years
of freedom; that freedom is
responsible for all our progress
in ideas, in intellectual self
reliance. in research and science,
and also for our great produc-
ton which has given our peo-
pie the highest standard Of
living in the world. Its destruc-
ton is threatened today by the
spending, and taxation and ex-
cessive power Of big government.
I have fought that growth for
fourteen years in Washington.
We can only preserve our liberty
by putting into Office men and
women imbued with a hatred of
that totalitarian philosophy of
spending and power.

on the Korean war the position
you have taken is approximately
the same as Gen. MacArthur's.
as I understand it. Now. do you
think that the position of Gen.
Eisenhower on that question is
closer to yours or closer to the
Truman-Acheson position?
Senator Taft: It is very diff
ficult to tell, because Gen. Eisen-
hover has not expressed his
opinion about the Far East, as
far as can find in any of the
answers to questions, except that
he condemned the loss of China.
in very general terms. refusing
to name names, like Gen. Mar
shall, who were responsible for
that less of China.
Otherwise, I can only con-
clude that he does not feel-he
has in no way condemned the
Presidents action in starting the
war without the authority of
Congress: he has in no way con-
demned the withdrawal from
Korea and Secretary Ache
sons almost invitation to
the North Koreans to in
wade Korea. I would think
that he has shown no indica-
ton of criticizing in any way
the policy which has involved
us in what I think is an un-
necessary war.
Reisel: Senator, the biggest
domestic problem of-except
for the presidency, of course
is settling the steel strike that
has bitten off the Korean war
production. At Abilene Gen.
Eisenhower said he would not
use the Taft-Hartley Law. In
answer to a question of mine in
New York, he said he would
bring both sides together. Later
he did say he would use the
Taft-Hartley Law. Can get
from you a specific answer as
to how you would settle the
steel strike?
Senator Taft: I would use the
Taft-Hartley Law, of course. I
have said that, and Gen. Eisen-
hover has come around to that
point Of view, also. That does not
indicate to you that he is for
the Taft-Hartley Law because,
after all, Mr.. Truman has used
the Taft-Hartley Law, that pro-
vision, 10 or IL times. In fact,
the remarks of Gen. Eisenhower
seem to me to show hostility to
the Taft-Hartley Law. I don't
think he really understands it,
because he says that you can't
make men work. Well, the Taft
Hartley Law does not undertake
to make men work. For 80
days. you have to postpone
national strike; otherwise it
gives complete freedom of strik-
ing and freedom of collective
bargaining.
Evening star., 1952-06-20

tell from his remarks whether
he is against the Taft-Hartley
law or not. In the farm-agri-
cultural field of agricultural
policies reaching the other great
group of voters in this country,
he has stated frankly that he
doesn't know anything about
the subject and has asked the
farm editors to submit a pro-
gram to him. So that I don't
think that we can say that we
agree. I don't know what his
views are on the subject.
Sees Need to Continue
Mutual Security
johnson: Do you agree with
him on the need for continuing
the Mutual Security program?
Senator Taft: Yes, I have al
ways said I would favor arlning
the troops in Europe. and I no.
tice that since he came back
he recently, here yesterday, I
think, made a clear statement
that he is opposed to sending
any more troops aboard. So
that seems to bring him around
to my position on that question.
Also his policy Of dealing with
the present Korean war seems
to be the same. The principal
difference in foreign policy Is
that he doesn't seem to con-
demn at all on any point the
foreign policy of Mr.. Truman.
which has gotten this country
into the tremendously difficult
problem we have today and built
up Soviet Russia to the point
where they are a real threat
to our liberty and security.

Believes in Doctrine

The Government has a role
to play-it should maintain a
balanced budget-it should aid
labor and industry and agri-
culture by research and educa-
ton and assistance. So I favor
the continuation Of the present
system Of farm price supports,
to achieve some equality in
prices and to prevent serious
depression. Many aids to busi-
ness in the past have started
new industries and protected
others.
The draft and UNIT are serious
limitations Of personal liberty
and should never be used unless
absolutely necessary for the Sc
curity Of our Nation. UNIT
Is certainly unnecessary today.
Our policy should aim toward
the elimination of the draft.
OF States Rights
I do not believe We can have
liberty in this country unless
our States and local communi-
ties have the freedom to decide
their own policies of education,
welfare. health and local gov
ernment. So believe in the
doctrine of States rights to
protect that freedom.
Here again the Federal Gov
ernment does have q secondary
interest which justifies assist
ance without control, and so
have supported bills for aid to
education, relief, social security
and housing. I believe the Fed
eral Government does have an
interest IN seeing that every
child has equality Of opportunity
In life no matter how poor the
family, or the community or the
state into which he may be
born. But the need must be
clearly shown. there must be no
Federal control, and no social
izing of welfare, health or hous-
ing by extending the service to
those able to pay their way.
But in this field also we must
not spend money we haven't
got; and we cannot hope to
maintain liberty at home If we
increase Federal expenditures at
this time, or until we have
solved the problem of protecting
our liberty from foreign aggres-
sion by o more sound, sensible
and economical military pro-
gram than that in which the
Evening star., 1952-06-20
Must Restore Liberty
OF Families to Spend

We must restore the liberty
Of our families to spend the
money their members earn by
the sweat of their brow for the
needs of that family. and not
have the Government take 30
per cent of that income for
Government services they do not
want or approve. Thus today
they have already lost 80 per
cent of their liberty. I promise
a reduction in expenses to bal
ance the budget the first year
and q tax reduction Of Is per
cent the second year.
We must maintain the free
dom of labor by restoring the
right of free collective bargain
ing and abolish Government
wage fixing. The Taft-Hartley
law is based on free collective
bargaining. and protects the
liberty Of the individual union
workman against the arbitrary
power of big employer and his
labor union boss. I favor con-
structive amendments which
do not change the basic princi-
pies of the law.
I blocked the Presidents ef-
fort to draft strikers into the
Army in 1916; and I oppose
compulsory arbitration because
I think the right to strike is
essential to freedom; if wages
are fixed. prices and profits
will soon be fixed and we will
have a completely regimented
economy.
For the same reason I am
in favor of abolishing price
controls today, to insure the
freedom of the businessman to
run his business. Prices are
generally below the legal prices.
A farm program must not i'm
pose controls on farmers and so
I am opposed to the Brannan
plan and the fixing Of farm
prices,
