questionable how long the
Japanese forces can stand
these losses" illustrates to our
psychological warfare people
the Importance attached to
manpower by the Eastern
nations.
There is a strong belief
among many advisers in this
type of intelligence that today
as in the past the Russians
would much prefer in conflict
with the West to rely on man
power backed by conventional
weapons such as tanks, guns
and planes, rather than on the
complex use of atomic weap-
ons. These are not confined
these days merely to super
destructive bombs but to a
number of other weapons to
be used by land and sea forces.
And it is doubtful whethei the
Reds have been able to develop
them now or whether they will
be able to produce them in the
same quantity we do.
Such considerations led some
of President Eisenhower'S ad-
visers to believe that Russia
hopes to win a war against the
West by its overwhelming
manpower rather than by the
use of the latest scientific de-
velopments. Hence, elf Presi-
dent Eisenhower extended q
friendly hand by suggesting an
international bank Of flssion-
able materials the way would
be paved to restrict or do
away with the military usage
of the new weapons.
1t is this belief which keeps
the hopes alive in the White
House that something may
come of the Presidents offer.

SQQe Joe Martin on the Beam
Human Noture-ond Other Reosons-WouId Seem to Show
The President Will Sooner or Later Want Second Term

"I've never seen a Presi-
dent yet who didn't want a
second term"
Truly spoken.
And naturally, since it came
from one of our political Sages,
Speaker of the House Joe
Martin. On that Judgment of
human nature-and Presidents
are human-the veteran Mass
achusettS House member based
his forecast that President
Eisenhower would be a candi-
date for a second term. Ger
tainly, if the President wants
it, he would be renominated
as matter of course.
If he didn't want renomina-
ton and was able to make
that stick with his party, then
our present President would,
indeed, depart from what has
virtually become a rule in this
century in which every PreSi-
dent who completed a f1rst
term has sought a second.
(Warren G. Harding died in
Office in his first termD We
have had in that time two one
term Presidents, William
Howard Taft and Herbert
Hoover. Both, however, ran
for a second term but were
defeated.
In our time We have seen
the two-term tradition broken
by Franklin D. Roosevelt who
served three and started a
fourth term. Theodore Roose-
velt also sought a third term
unsucceSsfully on a third party
ticket after the William
Howard Taft interlude. Some
believe that Calvin Coolidge
really wanted to be renomi-
mated for what would have

the prices of the Presidency.
It is only natural that the man
who may sincerely think that
he will step down after one
term when he assumes the
Office should look with less and
less favor on such a prospect
as he becomes Injured to the
Office and enjoys the taste of
power.
OF recent occupants Of the
White House, President Eisen-
hover had had, in his previous
career, more of the sort of
adulation that comes to a
President than the others. so
that this was not a new expe-
rience. OF power he had had
his share also. For this and
other reasons he would seem
the most likely President in a
long time to be content to cut
of his career with one term.
He was reported unhappy in
his first weeks and months in a
job that clearly was strange to
him In many ways. But so was
his predecessor, and Harry
Truman came to like his work
immensely. President Eisen-
hover now seems more ad-
justed and comfortable and, as
time goes on, who can say but
that he will fit Speaker Mar
tins diagnosis along with all
the rest?
There are, of course. other
factors beyond the personal
desires of a President involved
in the second term matter.
The party has a say. and very
much SO. If it demands that
the President lead it again, he
can hardly refuse.
For many years now, re-

despite his IT do not choose
to run" declaration which,
however, party leaders ac-
cepted at face value.
AS we know, a third term
is no longer possible. What
had been a tradition until
Franklin D. Roosevelt violated
it, that is, a limit of two
terms. now is imbedded in our
Constitution - and for that
Speaker Martin was the spon-
sor and is perhaps more re-
sponsible than any one else.
He had seen one President
seek a third. and then fourth
term. In that case the appe-
tite for the Office and the
power that, it embodies was a
demonStration-in a perhaps
exaggerated form-of the spell
that the Office seems to cast
upon every one who enters
upon it. That eventually in
duces the reluctance to give it
up which the speaker noted.
He spoke from observation and
from personal acquaintance
with Presidents for a long
time.
Generally the Office of Pres
ident seems to be acknowl-
edged as perhaps the most
powerful in the world today
because of the place of the
United States in the world.
There is bound to be exhilara-
ton in this power and in the
thousand and one little atten-
tions that a President gets
accustomed to, even though
this exhilaration is sobered by
the awful loneliness that goes
with such power. itself one Of
