Department and thus ended a
brilliant Government career in
which his party and two Pres
idents had heaped so many
honors upon him-member OF
both House and Senate, Su-
preme Court justice, chief Of
the civilian command in the
White House in World War II,
finally Secretary of State.
After his retirement he be-
came increasingly disgruntled
with the Truman Fair Deal,
though he had been the chief
senatorial architect Of the New
Deal of which the Fair Deal
was the successor. He had CO.
operated and worked closely
with President Roosevelt on
New Deal measures when other
Southern Senators had become
antagonistic. He became the
darling and hero of Republic
cans and conservative Demo-
Gratis when he burned his
bridges eventually-after his
retirement from the State De-
partment-in a speech at
Washington and Lee Univer-
Sity in Virginia. He called the
Truman Fair Deal "the road
to ruin" and other like un-
pleasant names.
The day after that speech
President Truman was going
through some outgoing mail
placed on his desk for his sig
nature. He came across a let
ter he had dictated in reply to
a note from Mr.. Byrnes re-
ceived several days before. He
hastily scribbled across the
bottom in his own handwrit-
ing:
eft tn, Brute!"
When Mr.. Byrnes announced
he was going to run for Gov
ernor of South Carolina that
was interpreted as notice that
he was seeking an official roost
and forum from which to or
ganiZe an nti-Truman move
ment in the South, which,
though he denied it at the
time, was exactly what hap
pened.
Only its target in the end
was not Harry Truman, who
had surprised many people by
not running again. but Adlai
Stevenson.
Now the Governor has an
other chance as the Eisen-
hover administration offers UP
Harry Truman as a target.

Again the Truman-Byrnes
feud flares up in most dra-
matte circumstances.
Gov. James F. Byrnes Of
South Carolina speaks up to
place himself in then Presi-
dent Truman's White House
office on February 6, 1946. He
describes himself as a
shocked" Secretary of State
urging the President that the
appointment of Harry Dexter
White, Assistant Secretary of
Treasury, to the international
Monetary Fund be stopped
somehow because of an FBI
report accusing the Treasury
official as a Russian agent.
The nomination had been ap-
proved only a few minutes
before the Truman-Byrnes
meeting.
It surprised no one here
who knows how bitterly
Jimmy" Byrnes feels toward
the man with whom he once
worked side by side, that the
South Carolina Governor
should come forward with his
contribution to the case that
Attorney General Herbert
BrowneI is trying to make
against our former President.
The only question asked here
abouts-and many are ask
ing its why Mr.. ByrneS,
then Secretary of State, did
not make a public issue out
of the White case, as he is
doing now over seven years
later, If he felt as deeply about
it as he now says he did at
the time.

The most extraordinary
statement in the controversy
raised by Attorney General
Herbert Brownell is that at
tributed to President Truman's
former military aide, Maj.
Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, who
said he had never heard of
Harry Dexter White until Mr..
Brownell made his accusa-
ton.
From this one must assume
that an aide and White House
intimate of the President never
read newspapers, nor the evi-
dence in the Hiss case. nor fol-
lowed important congressional
hearings, nor was aware Of
executive appointments, and
was, in short, as uninformed
as a creature from another
planet.
Short Of being deaf and
blind, Gen. Vaughan must
have heard the name of Harry
Dexter White. Perhaps he has
a very bad memory. But if he
has that bad a memory he
cannot be trusted to remember
whether he did, in fact, re-
ceive an FBI report unfavor-

Some of the Maryland players

Alabama game yesterday and
one made the comment that the
fellow playing opposite Stanley
Jones on the line started run
ming away from the big Mary
land tackle in the second half,
instead of standing up to him.

Other items brought out by
the films were the great per-
formance by John Bowersox, the
Terps' left guard, and the de-
ceptivenesS Of Chester Hanulak's s
running, as if that wasn't known.
On one particular f1rst-down
squirt Hanulak just tore away
from a tackler who appeared to
have him safe in hand, and then
Chester gave another the stop
and-go motion that left the fel-
low empty handed. They finally
chased him out of bounds.
Maryland did not get a place

among the Terp stars both
Bernie Faloney and Chester

The banquet circuit recalls an
incident during the regime of
George Carroll as Maryland
sports publicist. He had an in
vitation to speak at a Snow Hill
(Md.) Rotary Club meeting, but
George had a very poor memory
and he asked the Rotarian to be
sure and call him the day of
the meeting to remind him.
About midafternoon on the
day of the speech Carroll re-
ceived cali and he confirmed
the appointment. Lets see,
now, you go to Peace Cross and
turn left, don't you, to get to
Snow Hill?" George asked, un-
der the impression it was in
Prince Georges County.
"I1l say you go to Peace Cross
and turn left" said the Rotarian.
a Maryland graduate. "Then
you keep on going-to Annapolis,
take the ferry (lt was before the
Bay Bridge) and drive a hundred
miles or more, through Salisbury,
and then start looking"
The shocked Carroll hustled
up an assistant coach, grabbed
a film, jeep and they hustled
off for almost 200 miles on a
date which George thought was
just around the corner. They
didn't get back for two days.
