Truman his led the country in
to some Of the most far-reaching
ventures in American history
such as the Korean War, the
Atlantic Pact, Foreign Alliances,
But there has been increasing
grumbling over the inconcluSive-
ness of the Korean War, over the
high taxes, and the fact that
they're being used to provide so
much economic help for other
countries.
Because there is the grumbling,
which may have taken active
form in the New Hampshire cleo
tions, the question about Tru-
mans advocacy, sticks out sharply:
Just how much of a job has Tru-
man done in trying to sell the
people on Korea, taxes, and
foreign aid
Three of the most controversial
programs offered congress by
Truman were civil rights, repeal
Of the Taft-Hartley labor law,
and compulsory health insurance.
After one try on civil rights and
one on repeating Taft-Hartley,
the Truman administration ap-
parently abandoned the fight.
And the administrations advocacy
Of compulsory health insurance
can hardly be said to have been
strenuous, particularly in view of
ell the opposition it had.

The World Today

WASHINGTON, (AP)-I an
angry moment an extremely in
flucntial Democrat, S zen at Or
George of Georgia, delivered one
Of the most caustic criticisms ever
uttered in the senate against Pre-
Sident Truman on the very day
when returns from the New Ham
pshire election showed President
badly beaten.
Truman, urging the Senate to
approve his plan for reorganizing
the Internal Revenue, had sug-
gested that the senator's opposing
it were moved more by desire
for political patronage than de-
sire to eliminate corruption from
the government.
George, attacking the President,
said: He is the poorest advocate
of a cause--good, bad, or in
different-thatt the world has ever
l)IcOuGeu.
This cryptic statement was
made at a time when many peo-
pie, stunned by Truman's defeat
IN New Hampshire, were wonder
ing about the reasons and whether
the vote there truly reflected the
feelings of Democrats everywhere
toward the president
BY accusing the president of
being a poor advocate, George at
least brought into focus a ques-
ton which undoubtedly arose in
many minds after hearing the
New Hampshire returns: Just
how much of a job has Truman
done in winning the people over
TO him and the causes he favored
No one can accuse him of never
having done a selling job. In the
l94S presidential campaign, when

NEW YORK tAP)-Men who
make and export American goods
are meeting here to take a look
at a tough problem. They stand to
lose large part of some of their
best markets-in the pound ster-
ling area. And they fear new
wave of curbs against American
goods may be. starting in many
other parts Of the world.
Facing the thousand men from
all parts of the country gathered
for the conference of the export
managers club of New York are
these developments:
/. Six countries in the sterling
area-to whom Americans sold
two billion dollars worth of goods
last year-have just announced
drastic cuts in the imports they'll
permit this year.
2. The u. S. Department of
Commerce announces that in JAM
uary our exports dropped 100
million dollars from December,
while we imported 121 million
dollars more in goods.
3. The pound sterling advanced
Monday in London an dthe Ameri-
can dollar went down-aftermath
of Churchill's new austerity pro-
gram.
4. The Canadian dc..,,ar advanc-
ed in value and the American dol
lar dropped in value in Montreal
it took over 80 7/16 Canadian
cents to buy one American buck
there. Investors are seeking Ca
nadian dollars because they like
Canada's fiscal policies and in
dustrial opportunities.
The exporters gathered here to-
day aren't worried as much by the
currency fluctuations as they are
by the world trade upset that
threatens to cut off more world
markets for American goods.
Six countries just announcing
they'll import less this year are:
Britain, Australia, South Africa,
Ireland, New Zealand and South
ern Rhodesia. Ceylon is talking of
the same thing, and American
fear that India may follow suit.
The financial crisis in France also
threatens to upset the trade apple
cart.

TCxAs GEOGRAPHY LESSON

AUSTIN, Tex. (AP) - The
University of Texas Department
of Geography helped settle the
question of how many states have
capitals closer to Amarillo than
the Texas capital at Austin.
DR.. Donald Brand, geography
professor, said the answer is three.
With big globe and calipers DR..
Brands assistants measured these
geographic airline distances: Am
arillo to Santa Fe, N. M.-230
miles; Amarillo to Oklahoma City,
Okla.-240 miles: Amarillo to
Denver, Colo.-355 miles.
Amarillo in the Texas Panhand-
lie is Ais miles from Austin. All
other capitals were farther away
than Austin Topeka, Kan. how
ever, ran a close race at 425 miles
distance.

Corruption in government has
been an probably will remain one
OF the biggest issues in the presi-
Dental campaign, with Trumans
opponents expected to capitalize on
it as much as they can. Not even
his closest friends can claim he
jumped into this program with
both feet in a hurry, for broad
investigation has not even begun
although Truman might be able
to explain convincingly what de-
layed it.
His defeat by Senator kefauver
in New Hampshiree may spur
the president into more direct
contact with the people-and it
certainly will if he decides to run
again--for in New Hampshire
Kefauver who went around Shak-
ing hands got the votes while the
president who stayed away came
in second-best.

The current headon collision at
Pammunjom is over the major is
sues:
Cd The Reds want the Rus
slams named as neutral observers
to administer details of the armis-
tice. The U. N. command delegates
say mot on your life."
(2) The command wants volun-
tary repatriation for all prisoners;
that is don't send anyone back
unless he wants to go. The Reds
says mot on your life-we want
them ALL"
Meanwhile, half a million men
on each side squat in foxholes and
watch each other uncertainty
along restless front.
Even if the allies were consider
ing an ultimatum, what good
would it do?
The unqualified opinion of an
officer in this command who know
as much about what is going on in
Korea as anyone else is that four
more divisions are needed to
drive the Communists back to the
Yalu River.
The advantage we held in July
is lost now, unless we buildaup our
strength" he said.
The allies still hold the upper
hand in the air. But the world
war two models B-29s making the
run up to Mig Alley every night
aren't getting any younger.
The Navy has been shelling
Wonsan daily for more than a
year, but every row and then a
destroyer destroyer going into the
harbor for closer range gets shot
up by shore battries.
Meanwhile, Communist supplies
in Korea are mounting. This week
General Matthew B. Ridgway's
headquarters announced it was
certain most of these supplies were
Soviet-made.
The Reds have taken time to
dig in SO deeply and SO well, there
is no hope of smoking them out
now without heavy casualties.
Military pressure, meaning more
casualties, has to be applied be-
fore the Communists will talk
AT least, this is the opinion of
Vice Adm. c. Turner JOY, chief
u. N. delegate.
But suppose the u. NJ command
gives the Reds an ultimatum:
Talk or else"
"Or else WHAT"
"Or else we'll bring over our
B-36 atom bombers and pulveriZe
the cities in Manchuria and China.
''Or else We'll blockade China
with the Seventh Fleet.
'Or else we'll open up on u. S.
production and mold every car,
washing machine and plowshare
in sight into a tank or a steel
nosed she'll"
That, in the opinion of men out
here who should know, is the only

ds an "ultimatum.'
says Brig. Gen. William p. Nuc-

y, there have been half a dozen
adlocks where neither side SEEM
kind of ultimatum that would do
any good.
Excluding that, the only thing
is patience.
There have been Stalemates be-
fore, both at Kaesong and Pam
munjom. The issue over the 38th
parallel almost blew up the talks
in August and September. 1t took
months to make the Communists
hand over a list of prisoners.
The Reds might be planning on
talking for years
If the allies want to talk to
them, perhaps they'll have to plan
on long time too
