Foreign Affairs Biggest Problem
Politicians Say Red Peril and Taxes Make u. S. World Role
LveIest Topic for Voters Since First World War
Constantine Brown:

Much as some politicians Of
both parties may hope to reduce
the Importance of foreign af-
fairs in the electoral battle.
they admit privately that these
will overshadow all other prob
lens confronting the Nation.
The consensus of political
thinkers in Washington is that
the position of the United
States in world affairs will be
a much more lively topic for
American voters than it was
from 1919 up to now.
Foreign affairs were relegated
to a secondary place in the
1882 campaign when economic
depression brought Franklin D.
Roosevelt into the White House.
It played no role-except as a
vague platform matter-in
1896. The American people were
mildly alarmed in the 1910
campaign about the second
World War which had broken
out the September before. But
they were treasured by Presi-
dent Roosevelt's "again and
again" pledge that American
boys would not be sent abroad
to fight another war.
In the 1914 campaign we were
in the thick of an international
conflagration with American
boys fighting in almost every
part of the world. Winning the
war against the Axis was the
only thing that mattered; what
would happen after the struggle
ended did not bother the Ameri-
can electorate.
In 1948 peace appeared close
to the uninitiated voter, who
believed in the magic powers
of the United Nations and the
efficacy of the newly created
Western alliances in stemming
the forward march of the
USSR. .
Today, for the rank and file
electorate, the situation Is en-
tirely different. We have been
fighting a disguised war in Ko-
rea where more than 10000
combat casualties have been
listed so far. These casualties
affect millions of people directly
or indirectly and worry millions
more about the continuation Of
what appears to them an inter-
minable war.
In the last two years many
Americans have begun to realize
that Moscow was not interested
in any solution of the present
conflict. short of surrender on
our part, and that only military
strength can assure the security
Of this Nation.
The alliances we have formed
since 1949 with the free nations
across the Atlantic give some

which carry q powerful wallop
politically. He is closer to the
type of old-fashioned orator
who used to sway millions of
votes than any other man in
public life today.
But while there are assets
on the side Of a Taft-MacArthur
ticket by reason of putting the
General on for the vice presi-
dency, there also are liabilities.
It eliminates, for instance, the
widely circulated objection to
Gen. Eisenhower on which some
Taft supporters have grown
vehement-namely. that no
military man should be Presi-
dent.
Obviously. since seven Vice
Presidents in history have be-
come President, it would appear
that to name a military man
for Vice President isn't much
different from naming him for
President.
The best answer to the ques-
ton Of whether a military man
should be President was given
by former Governor Harold
Stassen Of Minnesota when he
asked in turn: (Which military
man?"
But, assuming that a military
man is as eligible politically as
any civilian, the Taft managers
may be bothered by the fact
that while Gen. Macarthur has
certain advantages politically,
he also has some disadvantages.
Rightly or wrongly-and, in
this correspondents opinion,
wrongly-there are millions of
persons who believe the general
was motivated by a desire to ex-
tend the Korean war. irrespec-
tive Of whether it brought on
a large-scale war.
The Democrats have consist
emily made this argument, and
If Gen. Macarthur is the vice.
presidential nominee. they will

garet Chase Smith Of Maine,
they have shown a curious
reluctance to make use of her.
To date. despite her position as
the only woman Senator and
her high standing with women
generally over the country, no
arrangements have been made
to give her a play at the con-
vention which will encourage
women to seek careers with the
G. o. p.
Mrs. Smith apparently Is too
liberal for the National Com
mittee. That she gave Maine q

ster's tenure. would not further
endear her. Senator Smith has
admirers who sincerely believe
her nomination as Vice Presi-
dent would be a ten-strike to
her party. In the current situa-
ton, it is an unrealistic aspira-
ton.
incidentally. not all women
Democrats are happy over the
boom for Mrs. Edwards for vice
president. They think the time
not ready: they fear some loss
of her influence within the
party. It still is a deserved COM
pliment to her loyalty to women
in her party and, indeed, to
women generally.

ton would like to reassure
rather than alarm the voters.
But wherever the Muscovites
may decide to strike--in West
ern Europe. in Indo- China. in
Korea or Iran or Turkey-it will
involve the American people.
The prognostication Of some
Republicans and Democrats that
the 1852 elections will be held
in the shadow of Russia's
threat is likely to be more ac-
curate than other political pre-
dictions they are making.
All candidates, whether they
are running for the Presidency
or for seat in Congress. realize
that taxes and the size of the
military establishment cannot
be reduced in the near future.
Quite the contrary: If world
conditions Of which we have be-
come the storm center continue
as at present. the people of this
country will have to start really
tightening their belts instead Of
expecting tax reductions and
less service in the armed forces.

peatedly. Everyone who has had
any experience with political
campaigns knows that the
peace" issue is stronger than
any war issue.
A considerable source of Taft
strength is in sections of the
Middle West where quasisola-
ZIONIST sentiment is believed to
be strong. While Gen. Mac
Arthur is strong in that region
too, it always has seemed con-
Trajectory that the very folks
who argue against committing
more American troops to Europe
appear willing to take the cal
culated risks of committing
more American troops to the
Far East.
Gen. Macarthur is a colorful
figure. but his experience in
politics is limited. His greatest
test will come in the keynote
speech at the convention.
Will he use that big televi-
sion opportunity with millions
watching and listening as an oc-
casion. even by a few implicit
phrases here and there, to seek
to injure the candidacy of Gen.
Eisenhower? Those who have
faith in his sincerity of purpose
and high motives do not think
he would do anything so petty
and violate traditions of i'm
partiality. which say a keynote
speech must not be for or
against any candidate.
Or will he use the occasion to
make a "sale" for the Republi-
can Party-to "sell" the major
principles on which the Repub-
lican Party this autumn must
stand as it offers an alternative
to the existing Administration.
If he does. then the selection
Of Gen. Macarthur as a key
noter will have been a ten
strike for party strategy rather
than just an anti Eisenhower
maneuver by the Taft forces.

Taft May Run With Macarthur
Senator's Aides View General as Terrific Compoigner;
Big Test Will Come in Convention Keynote Speech

The Taft high command is
seriously considering the selec-
ton Of Gen. Douglas Macarthur
to be the nominee for Vice Presi-
dent on the Republican ticket.
To announce or admit this
at the present time Is probably
unwise from a Taft strategy
viewpoint because the vice.
presidential nomination is
something to dangle before
various key delegations which
may have a candidate Of their
own. But news does leak out
when lots of persons are in
volved in so-called secrets.
Ever since the popular and
able Senator Knowland of Cali
fornia, who recently won re-
nomination in both the Repub-
lican and Democratic primaries,
turned thumbs down a few days
ago on the idea of being vice.
presidential nominee on the
Taft ticket, or any other for
that matter. the Taft board of
strategy has been coming up
with some interesting arguments
in favor of choosing Gen. Mac
Arthur. One reliable report is
that former President Hoover
likes the idea and has cleared it
with the general.
The most persuasive point
being offered is that Gen. Mac
Arthur is a vote-getter and will
be a terrific campaigner. This
is possibly a concession to the
contention often made by
Eisenhower supporters that
Senator Taft himself does not
have sufficient appeal on the
stump to win a presidential
election.
There is no doubt that Gen.
Macarthur has behind him an
almost fanatical following and
that his dramatic speeches have
won him millions Of supporters.
There Is no doubt also that he
makes good campaign speeches

Will @. Q. P. Women Be Heard?
Convention at Chicago May Indicate Influence of Fair Sex
Who Cast Half the Votes on Some Convention issues

The Republican National
Convention should shed some
light on a theory widely held in
the political trade. It is that
women in public life are more
honest than men, less tainted
by expediency. more interested
in issues than in the personal
fortunes Of any candidate.
Half the members of the ma
tional committees Of both par
ties are women. Therefore,
women will cast half the votes
on some of the crucial Gre
dentials questions which hinge
on whether or not the Taft
forces in the South violated the
commandment: Thou shalt
not steal"
National committeewomen
voted in the initial meetings at
Chicago, where the Taft steam
roller manned the controls ex.
clusively with their own people.
Though a few privately ex-
pressed unhappiness over the
manner in which the situation
was developing. only the intense
partisans, on one side or the
other. made any public COM
ment. In general. they just went
along with the men.
There was one important ex-
ception to their supine attitude.
The Taftites, intoxicated with
their easy success, decided to
make q clean sweep Of things
and depose Mrs. Katharine G.
Howard of Massachusetts, as
National Committee secretary.
Mrs. Howard, q delegate who
has since announced for Gen.
EISENHOWER, Is q pouC1caI aSS0-
ciate Of Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge, jr., Gen. Eisenhower's
campaign manager. Senator
Taft dislikeS all opposition,
but particularly the challenging
young Bay Slater, who got
an internationalist plank into
the 194S party platform and
went on to compound the felony
by going to Paris and inducing
Ike to run for President.
Mrs. Howard is a charming
and literate woman with more
than a touch of the New Eng
land "Plain Living and High
Thinking" attitude. Her wom-
en- colleagues were swift to
Evening star., 1952-06-30

prove they were proud of her
and knew when it was time to
rebel. The effort was dropped.
Mrs. Howard stayed to make the
ruling certifying the Texas con-
test to the National Committee.
She also has disclosed that the
Taft forces had urged the dis
puted delegation be judged by
the State committee, a state
ment Senator Taft denies.
Generally speaking, Republic
can women do not among them
selves attempt to exert much
leadership on policy or issues.
They have no such personality
as Mrs. India Edwards, who
always appears determined to
make the Democrats do right by
their campaign promises to the
people. In 1916, when Marion
Martin Of Maine, the women's
director Of the National Com
mlttee, showed signs of copying
the more aggressive women
Democrats, she was deposed by
the national chairman, Rep
resentative Carroll Reece, now
chairman Of Senator Taft's
Southern campaign.
Among the National Com
mitteewomen, there is an Old
Guard corresponding to the
male Old Guard-Bertha Bauer
Of Illinois, Katherine Kennedy
Brown of Ohio-but there also
is a growing ferment among the
younger women, such as Maud
Heffelfinger of Minnesota, who
want more to say about things.
Although Republicans possess

hope that we are not "going it
alone" But recent develop
ments in Western Europe-such
as the slowness Of our allies to
create the forces to which they
were committed under the
NATO and their unmistakable
desire to remain neutral in a
conflict between this country
and the USSR-have created a
concern, even If with many
people it is only subconscious.
that our troubles come not from
within but from without.
Moreover, many politica l
thinkers believe the electoral
campaign may be suddenly in
fluenced by the actions our un-
predictable enemy, the USSR.
may decide to take in the next
few months. We are neither at
war nor at peace with the
Soviets. The men in the Krem-
lin have the capability-if esti-
mates of our top military men
and their civilian chiefs are cor
rect-of striking in any part Of
the world, from Germany to
Japan. and possibly at the
United States itself.
The spectacular precautions
adopted by the Pentagon only
two weeks ago to increase the
watch against a possible Red
sneak attack from Arctic air
bases may be only a normal
step. But to many people it has
a more ominous meaning, parti-
cularly since the steps were

is possessed of a patience and a

When he talks of the Broadway

and of the cities he visited on a
recent tour about the country his
face lights up with an enthusiasm
which is contagious
There is no question so silly that
Rocky will not knit his brows and
give it deep thought and try to
come up with an answer. For an
extreme example, he cogitated lona
and earnestly when asked what il
was that made some fighters
scared when they got in the ring,
and finally said that he guessed II
was because some fighters had
weak chinS and knew they might
be knocked out. He made 1t plain
that he has no such worries, be-
cause he has never been really
hurt, only stunned briefly couple
of times.
Rocky was asked II he could

so he was over anxious and
