the dishonest and the disloyal had
wormed their way into positions of
trust and responsibility was bound
to cast discredit on many gov
eminent workers who were above
reproach.
Gen. Eisenhower, of course, now
has the task of restoring the
American peoples confidence and
trust in federal employees. And we
have no doubt that he will set
about doing just that the moment
he moves into 1900 Pennsylvania
Avenue.
1t is not enough, however, mere
ly to fire the crooks and the Com
mics and near-Commies. An
American housewife, when she
cleans house in the spring and
again in the fall, does not merely
dump the dirt into the rosebush
outside the kitchen door. She burns
it. Or she makes certain the gar
bage collector hauls it away.
Just so with the dirt that has
been accumulating for more than
seven years in the nations capital.
1t ought to be burned, or it ought
to be hauled away.
We're not talking of witch hunts.
We're not talking of secret police
methods in which civil rights are
trampled ruthlessly. We are talk
ing however, about the need for
a thorough-going Investigation of
departments and bureaus of the
federal government in which con-
gressional probes have shown the
need for an effective cleanup.
The government official best E.
quipped to undertake this search
ing inquiry, is, of course, the new
attorney general in the fresh Ell
senhower administration. We don't
pretend to know who he will he.
But his chief qualification should
be a successful background of fear
less prosecution of the guilty, to-
gether with a deep conviction about
the need for protecting the rights
of the innocent.
+ =
We're not the least bit worried
that Washington faces an orgy of
purges, either in the Soviet or the
Mccarthy tradition. We do think,
however, that the American peo-
pie are entitled to a careful and
thorough probing of all the dark
corners of government service.
And unless Dwight D. Eisen-
hover has fooled a lot of his fell
low Americans, just such a clean
up can be expected come next jan
uary.

THE DAM HAS BURST
OR HAS 1T
bedford, Pa. Gazette)

A sort of genteel terror stalks
the corridors of the vast hives of
Government in Washington as one
Federal worker tells another the
latest rumor. AS even the newest
typist knows, government workers
are grouped roughly in three
castles, like Hindus. The top layer,
consisting of appointive officers,
is squietly packing up, and in no
uncertainty as to the future. These
people never expect to outlast an
administration.
Next come the career" officers,
who have worked their way up
through the ranks. These are the
people on whom the real funct-
ioning of government depends, and
in the past have seldom been dis
turbed. Then there are the armies
of rank-and-file employees, pro-
tected by Civil Service laws, the
"untouchables," additionally Sc
cure in their jobs.
But the experts say there's a
real upheaval coming, especially
in the State Department, Veterans
Administration, Federal Security
Agency, the Post Office and var
ious other bureaus. Whether the
Republican economy in govern
ment program turns out to be
a tidal wave or a ripple, Uncle
Sans helpers are mentally light
ing out for the hills.

HERE'S THE BEST WAY
TO DOUBLE YOUR MONEY
(Oncle Dan from Doodle in the
Mooresville Tribune)
Dear Mister Editor:

Dear Mister Editor:
If you stop to think about it,
people is mighty queer. They git
in a rut, fall in behind the lead
er, and stay there. They all wear
the same style clothes, git the
same kind of haircut. They all
have to- have a old-fashioned
lamppost or a wagon wheel at
the driveway, all have to have
a picture window. Take this
thing of picture window. It's
a mighty pretty thing if it looks
out on anything that is pretty,
like a wooded hillside or a nice
slope or lawn. But most of them
look out on a busysstreet, brick
wall, or the neighbours clothes
line. People just don't think.
Everybody has a picture window
so they got to have one. We fol-
low the same rut in politics, re-
igion, and most all walks of life.
That's one reason I never had
much faith in Eisenhower win
ming the election. People stay in
the rut until some great disaster
fetches them into doing a little
thinking of their own.
I heard some of the Wimmen
folk saying that dresses was to
be longer this winter. They did
MT say longer on which end. Both
ends could do with little more
cloth.
Ed Doolittle was lamenting the
fact that he could have double
