4 The first signs Of struggle FOL
power within the new Eisenhower
administration are beginning tc
make their appearance.
The prospective chief antago-
nists are two veterans Of the
Republican political wars-Gov
Dewey of New York, twice his
|Iparty's presidential nominee, and
Senator Taft of Ohio. who lost
three efforts to gain the nomina-
ton.
Involved may be the overall
trend of President-elect Eisenhow.
er's next four years in office.
In essence, Senator Taft anc
Gov. Dewey represent two wing.
of the Republican Party's strug-
gle to channel the Eisenhower
administration into their owr
pattern.
Dewey in Ascendancy.
Gov. Dewey represents what
for lack of a better description
/ lis called the "internationalist'
wing of the party. Senator Taft
represents those who believe, a.
Senator Taft said in the cam.
paign. that the greatest threat o.
communism comes from within
and not from without.
/ At this point. Gov. Dewey ane
his influence are in the ascend.
ancy. There are reports that Gen
Eisenhower asked the New Yorl
governor to become his Secretar!
of State, but that Gov. Dewe!
suggested John Foster Dulles in
stead.
Mr.. Dulles served as Gov
Dewey's foreign affairs adviser II
the 1914 and 1948 campaigns
when Herbert Brownell, jr.. desig
mated by Gen. Eisenhower foI
Attorney General, was Gov
Dewey's campaign manager.
Gov. Douglas Mckay of Oregon
chosen for Secretary of Interior
can't be classed as Dewey man,
and yet he was at the side of tn
New York Governor when Gov
Dewey engineered a resolution
through last June's governors
conference in Houston. Tex, which
was an indirect slap at Senate
Taft in the Texas delegate SQUAD

One Taft Supporter.
Thus far. Senator Taft car
claim only one supporter in the
!. cabinet, George M. Humphrey o1
Cleveland, named for Secretary Of
, the Treasury.
a To a large measure, q President

poses. That is where Senator Taft
is likely to have his big innings.
If he chooses to fight, there /.
. little doubt that the Ohio Senator
; can install himself as Republican
! floor leader in the new Senate. Ir
fact, he might get it without 6

Andrews got to worrying about
the birds during Iowa's prolonged

For Position in Administration

|be. the program will find smoother
sailing.
Senator Taft apparently has
checked of any future ambition
to become President. He says he
enjoys being a Senator and all he
is interested in now is making the
new administration a success.
But his friends know that Sena-
tor Taft has his own ideas of what
it will take to make that admins
tration a success, and they do not
always jibe with Gov. Dewey's.
Gov. Dewey, of course, still is
suspected by other aspiring Re-
publican politicians of holding
presidential ambitions. He is
young enough to wait until Gen.
Eisenhower has served two full
terms and can be available for
the nomination again. if he main
tains his political prestige in the
meantime.
To the degree that Gov. Dewey
is regarded by other aspirants as
a possible candidate for the nomi-
nation in 1860, his position will be
weakened with them.
Plenty Of Young Aspirants.
At this point. there are plenty
of relatively young men within
the G. o. P. who have their eyes
on 1860. although most of them
would deny it publicly.
Vice President-elect Nixon prob
ably considers himself one of
these. The vice presidency seldom
offers the right kind of political
opportunity. however, except in
cases of succession because of
death.
Former Gov. Stassen of Mime
sofa, who comes back into the po-
litical limelight as Mutual Sc
curity Administrator, is a veteran
seeker of the nomination. He. too,
is young enough to wait until 1860.
From his expected post as a
sort Of assistant president to
Gen. Eisenhower, Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge. jr., of Massachu-
sets can be expected to keep his
eyes open for future political op-
portunities. Senator Knowland
of California wants to be G. o. P.
floor leader, a position that might
project him into the presidential
picture later.
Taft May Aid Dirksen.

LOOKS AT BOOKS"

There are so many books | like until it
is hard to write about those / like best. I
shall try, however, to give you sketch of
some of the choice books have read from
the Gainsboro Branch Library. Before do
that would like to have you know about
some of the advantages offered users Of
our library.
In many homes there are children who
are not fortunate enough to have books
on biography, fairy stories, classics and
fiction Encyclopedias and other reference
books are out of the question because of
their high cost. These books are placed in
the library for the use of all children.
Books are arranged in the library ac-
cording to system. This system is called
the Dewey Decimal Classification All
books on science, history, religion, poetry,
drama and the like will be found grouped
together on the shelves. Any books on
subjects you are not able to find will be
given you by the librarian. She is always
ready to assist you in any way possible.
like books of biography because they
give facts about the lives of real people.
People who have reached the top in spite
of handicaps and are examples of inspira-
ton to others.
Fairy Stories deal with magic | like
these stories because they carry one into a
world of Make-Believe. There magic may
be performed by fairies or elves.
Some outstanding books such as Alices
adventures in Wonderland, Huckleberry
Finn, Tom Sawyer, Little Women, Seven
teen, Pilgrims Progress and Up From Slav-
cry are books that give pleasure informa-
ton and delight
Growing trees struggle for the sun as
long as they live. Great books are the life
of the mind and the heart What the sun
is to the tree. book is to the reader. One
can never give up reading good books
| without them we live in darkness.

Baptist Leader Honored
For Is Years OF Service
NeWsFO Or Veterans

Preparing for administration of the edu-
cation and training benefits of the new
Korean CT Bill, the Administrator of Vet
Grams Affairs has requested the Governors
OF all AZ States to appoint agencies with
in the States to handle the approval of
schools and business establishments for
training eligible veterans.
Under the new law, schools and train
ing establishments must have approval of
the State in which they are located before
they may offer training to veterans who
served since the outbreak of Korean hos
tilities. This requirement also was a part
Of the original CT Bill for World War II
veterans.
The Veterans Administration requested
early receipt of the lists of State APPROX
ing agencies, so that VA can start hand
ling veterans applications before August
Gothic date on which the new training
program goes into effect. 1t was suggested
to the Governors that the same approving
agency may be designated for the Korean
CT Bill that already had been doing the
job under the earlier World War II act.
Meanwhile, VA issued advice to Korean
veterans who expect to take advantage of
the acts education provisions that they
should provide themselves at the start
with sufficient funds of their own to tide
them over at least the first two months of
training.
VA explained that the law provides a
veteran in training may not receive his
monthly Government check until some time
after that month of training has been COM
pleted; also, that for each month VA must
receive a certification from both the vet
eran and his school or training establish
ment that he was actually in training dur
ing that time. Following this, the VA will
have to examine the report and compute
the proper amount of payment to the vet
eran, based ON his number of dependents,
if any, the type of training and similar
factors.
With this required procedure, VA said,
q Korean veteran who plans to start edu-
cation or training under the bill will have
to allow for delay of at least two months
from the time his training starts before he
can receive his first monthly check
The bill specifies the exact amount of
monthly payments to be paid veteran,
depending on the type of training and the
number of his dependents. He must pay
the tuition to his school or training es-
tablishment our of the funds received

Match Books Used
To Show How Much
u. S. Is Spending

WHEELING, w. Va. Aug. 20
(NANA) Here's one way to get
Ia message into the hands of peo-
pie concerned, when the people
concerned are taxpayers:
The West Virginia Chamber Of
Commerce, to bring home the
effect of Federal spending, has
begun distribution here of some
specially prepared match books.
One flap of the match cover
states that Federal spending pro-
posed for 1928 will amount to
$85. 400, 100000 or $162,4 ,481 per
minute. The reverse flap brings
the facts closer to the community:
West Virginia will pay $685.
$4,000 of the total"
Tobacco dealers give away the
match books with each purchase,
and since every smoker gets 20
lights from a match book. that
gives each book 20 chances to
