on the mountain in the Mcdowell
Colony.
Mr.. Emerson Myers, pianist and
composer and member OF the
faculty in the music department
of the Catholic University, also
will speak. Both Mr.. Myers and
Mrs. Dunlap have been ardent
workers for the National SYM
phony Orchestra and still are,
And Mr.. Myers, like Mrs. Dunlap,
has had the privilege of working
at the Mcdowell Colony.
Mrs. Dunlap's Washington roots
are deep. at least six generations.
After the death of her mother
the latter's home on K street, the
last private home in the 100
block, was sold and Mrs. Dunlap
gave generously of the treasures
to the National Musuem and the
Corcoran Gallery of Art. The Cor
|coran Gallery was founded, and
the nucleus of its art treasures
given by her great great uncle.
William Wilson Corcoran, one OF
Washington's early philanthro-
pists and art patrons.
An exhibition is being held
this month as tribute to Mr..
|Corcoran in the library Of George
Washington University. The ex-
Ihibit includes paintings placed by
Mr.. Corcoran from his own col
lection in the first Corcoran Gal
lery. That building still stands
on the northeast corner Of Penn
|sylvania avenue and Seventeenth
street and until the very last few
years the initials. WWC, were
easily seen in the stone border
above the first floor windows.
The United States Court of Claims
now occupies the building.
Other Descendants
There are many other descend
ents of William w. Corcoran liv-
ing in washington. Among them,
in addition to Mr.. Corcoran Thorn,
are his son and daughter, Cor

we cut our own fire wood; and for light we used
kerosene lamps
There, however, then great difference
between the living standards of the few well-O-dO
families and of the great mass of the population.
AS a result of the labor unions minimum wages,
social security, safety laws. shorter hours and
higher wages, the living standards of the wage
worker are now very much higher; while the priv
ileges and profits of the old weto-dO families are
gradually vanishing OF course. machinery and
advertising have greatly aided in this redistTibu-
tiOn of wealth. Let us hope that the labor leaders
will not overreach and kill the goose which has

WILL THERE BE A RE-ALIGNNIENT OF
THE PARTIES FOLLOWING THE
NOVEMBER ELECTIONS?

We are impressed with the great amount
of dissatisfaction and lack of party interest
on the part of members of both the Repub-
ican and Democratic parties. Letters which
we have received from newspaper publishers
scattered throughout the Nation seem to
confirm our belief that a great change will
come out of the whole mess. This desire for
a change seems to be particularly strong in
the midwest, if letters which we are recev-
ing from editors of rural newspapers through
out the entire section are to be accepted at
face value. They are men that we know per-
sOnally-members of both political parties.
We believe that these men know their re-
spective communities and States better than
we do, or for that matter many of the pro-
fessSonas in both parties.
Whatever the outcome of the elections in
November, it seems inevitable that a crisis
will face both the losing and the winning
parties Both parties seem to be split into
hOpelesSly different, hOpeleSsly irrecOncilable
factions. No person has to be partisan of
either the SO-called liberal" or sO-called re
dictionary" trend in political thought to per-
ceive that this is equally true of both the
q Democratic and Republican parties. That
such a state of affairs should continue indefi-
nitely is incOnceivable. The recent national
conventions OF DOCn pafCleS SHOWS That the
d.ssident elements in both groups are near
the breaking point. Once the elections are
over, this could explode, with the only sOu-
tiOn realignment of parties.
Just what course will this new alignment
take? Both parties, win or lose, will be har-
rassed by inner party strife between the lib
eral and conservative wings of their respec-
tive groups. In one respect the Democrats
seem to be worse off than the Republicans.
The cleavage between the Northern and
Southern Democrats grows greater each
year. It can be expected to become COM
plete during the next session of Congress. 1t
seems apparent that the only hope for the
eventual survival of the Northern Democrats
is to form a new party from which South
erners would be definitely excluded. The only
logical course for such a new group would be
the inclusion of the DOuglasses and the Stew
ensOns, the ROOsevelts and the BentOns, also
the Lodges and the Deweys and the others
of that stripe from the Republican party.
The more conservative groups would then be
compelled to gravitate to a group which
would be formed by those favoring State
rights, the more sane methods of national,
state and local government. This group will
attract thousands.
We believe that the next few years will
see the re-grOuping Of our parties at Nat
ional level.

COOPERATION ESSENTIAL

In observing Labor Day, we need look no
further back than the steel strike to see how
labOr-management cooperation is needed to
promote the welfare of our country.
We saw how the partisan interference of
the Federal government prevented cooper
alton and caused the 55-day strike which no
body wOn-the strike which cost our de-
fense program 100000 tons of steel,
which cost the steelworkers nearly half a
billion in lost wages, which threw other
thousands of men in steel-using industries
out of work, and lost the government hun
dreds of millions in taxes, to say nothing of
losses suffered by owners of the companies.
Chairman Fairless of u. S. Steel Corp.
and President Murray of the C. l. 0. United
Steel Workers have embarked on a series of
joint visits to steel plants to study their
mutual problems and it is this kind of vol
untary cooperation which heralds better la.

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY
|, When / was boy only about million women
were employed in the entire United States in other
than hOusewOTk or teaching. This has now increased
to nearly 20 million. Jobs have given women more
money to spend New industries and products have
been developed, freeing women from housework.
Among these may be mentioned frozen foods COM
Iplete bakery products, self-servce stores electric
refrigeratOrs and ranges, dishwashers garbage dis
posals and plastic table linen"
There are 40 million people in the United
States fourteen years of age of which So million
are women. OF these only 19 million are now en-
lplOyed The total and women in the labor
force is about 63 million If we subtract the 10
million from 5S million women it means that SO
million women have not yet become wage workers
Now here is the important question: How long will
it be before the number Of women employed equals
the number OF men employed! This will be possible
as smaller and more modern houses are built sup
Iplemented by complete automatic electronic equip
ment and other wonderful new inventions not vet
on the market.

Washington Letter - By Robert Nelson Taylor

Thus far, both candidates are for
the New Deal-Fair Deal social
gains. Both want less government
in Washington, and both would
throw the rasCals out.
But, from here on, things may be
different The President says Adlai
must run on the RoOsevelt-Truman
record, which he said, is all the
Democratic Party has to run on.
Which is no doubt correct. It's
long time since the Party has paid
much heed to an earlier Democrat
named Jefferson, who said: Were
we directed from Washington when
to SOW and when to reap, we should
soon want bread"
The President also took excep-
tiOn to StevensOn's reference to
"the mess in Washington, quoted
from a letter from the Governor
to Tom Humphrey of the Oregon
Journal, and said he knows moth
ing about any mess in his adminis-
tratiOn.
Refusing to comment on the Els
enhOwer speech at Boise, Mr.. Tru-
man said he would save his re-
marks until he takes the stump
himself.
Thus, it would appear that Adlai
will have not merely a helper but
2 mentor as well, and had better
forget this states-rights foolish
ness and cleaning up messes,
And word from the Eisenhower
camp that Ike will campaign for
Senator Mccarthy in Wisconsin is
further indication that issues and
battle-lines are at last in forma-
ton. There can be little common
ground between "McCarthyism"
and Rissism."
WORTHY OF THEIR METAL?
In a matter of days, now, the
three armed Secret Service gentle
men who have been protecting"
Margaret Truman on her jaunt
through Europe, and notably in
Sweden, will be back home. It
will then be time. we presume, to
find something further to occupy
these public servants. We suggest,
since the Swedish press has report
ed them as belligerent rOugh-necks
that they be sent on another good
will" tour. This time to Czeehslo-
vakia . to bring back Bill Oatis.

is miners, or even CIO President
Philip Murray's $4,000 raise.
It's the story that came out of
Washington on August 18th, when
the Bureau of Labor Statistics re-
leased a survey showing that the
average US city family is spending
$400 year more than it is taking
in. And the same week BIS an
nOunced another hike of 6 per cent
in the cost of living.
TraditiOnally, small town people
and farm people, who are far more
self-reliant, and might even be
shade more thrifty, fare better than
their city cousins when the econo-
mic going gets rough. But the
present poisonous price-spiral will
track it's victim from the big city
penthouse to the sOd-hOuse on the
prairie and the cabin in the hills.
If you run your own business,
whether it's a farm, a flap-jack
foundry or a pharmacy; if you
work for commission or a salary;
if, in short, you are not the ward
Of a high-poweTed union, you have
the choice, as the cards are stack
ed, between abandoning those wide
y tOuted American standards of
living" or going broke.
There is, of course, as always, a
way out. But it must be adopted as
national policy. Collectively, under
strong leadership, the American
people can stop imitation in its
tracks. But that leadership has not
yet emerged from hiding. 1t must
recognize the fundamental on
which Henry Ford established the
then fabulous five-dollar-a-dav
minimum wage thirty years ago
that no wage is too high that
pays a profit. No one questions
that the labOrer is worthy of his
hire. We have merely stopped ex-
pecting him to be worthy. There
is no limit to what a man may
properly be paid if the work
he does is worth still more. But a
dOllar-a-day is ruinous pay for a
man who turns out 95 cents worth.
Unless higher wages provide high
er production, and hence cheaper
goods, we are headed down the sun

EISENHOWER MUST MAKE
FIGHTING CAMPAIGN

Some Of the commentators have written
that they don't expect General Eisenhower
and Governor Stevenson to differ greatly on
many of the campaign issues This belief is
predicated on the theory that both are by
nature moderate, le-of-the-rOad men who
will shy away from both the right and the
left.
That remains to be seen-both candidates
have said that they mean to make top issue
out Of foreign policy so they must believe
that they have real cleavage of opinion
when it comes to that all-;mpOrtant matter.
But it is certainty, regardless of how much
or little Eisenhower and Stevenson agree or
disagree, that the Republicans will hit very
hard on two issues. One is that 20 years is
more than enough time for one party to hold
pOwer-that it must be turned out of office
lock, stock and barrel if the government is
to be cleansed, the corruption stopped, and
the deadwOOd eliminated. The other is that
Governor Stevenson is, to quote Senator Nix
on, helpless captive of those who made
his nomination possible" and truly hand
picked candidate ). of Harry Truman"
These are very difficult charges to effec-
lively answer, and Governor Stevenson obvi-
Ously knows that. In his acceptance speech
he made point of saying that the Demo-
Gratis must not try to excuse or becloud cor
ruption and wrong-doing but must thorough
ly clean house themselves. He also said, in

WHAT NOW, GENERAL?


In Korea, last week, 106 more
Americans were killed in action,
549 wounded, 80 reported missing.
Truce teams battled over whether
or not UN planes had flown over
the cOnsecrated kaffee-klatch area
of Panmunjom. President Truman
reiterated that we can not permit
repatriatiOn-by-force of Red war
prisoners. Allied airmen continued
their attacks on enemy supply in
stallations, and the Navy criticized
Air Force tactics as "an effort that
probably doesn't warrant the ex-
penditure of that amount of eff
fort"
Meanwhile, at home, General
Eisenhower expressed approval of
President TTuman's decision on mil
itaTy Intervention in Korea, and
said that he knows of no one who
has a solution. Whether or not this
was left-handed reference to
General Macarthur, is anyOneB
guess. But it should be noted that
Macarthur did have a definite plan
of attack. whether it would have
provided the solution or not. And,
it should be further noted that the
American public has been gener-
Ously eXcusing Ike for his admitted
unfamiliarity with domestic issues.
But, as the foremost military mind
presently available to us. as a man
who is doing his best to assure us
of his presidential stature, we
would like to think that he recOg-
nizes in the deteriOrating Korean
situation no less a challenge to
American prestige than that of VAL
ley Forge.
We can not believe that he does
not have a plan-Of-actiOn in the
back of his mind. But to suggest
that he hasn't is cruel to the fight
ing men he loves so well, and dis
quieting to the rest of us. We would
like to see in General Ike a latter
day George Washington. But ne
makes it difficult
