Blessing in Disguise?
By Crosby S. Moves

President Eisenhower's prompt
reaction to Senator Taft's views
on foreign policy is encouraging
the view that the incident, which
seemed at first blush a MASTER
piece of bad timing, may turn
out to be a blessing in dis
guise for the administration.
To be sure, the blessing, if
such it is, was not calculated by
either Senator Taft or the Pres
ident. tt lies simply in the fact
that Senator Taft'S speech seems
to have succeeded in shocking
President Eisenhower into a
strong assertion of his own lead
ership in the field Of foreign
policy
That this should provide an
occasion for rejoicing in some
circles is evidence of the feel
ing, both in and out of the po-
litical picture. that there are
more important things at stake
in the present situation of the
world than the appearance of
harmony within the Republic
can Party.
Until yesterday, there was rea-
son to believe that the President
thought otherwise. Particularly
in the field Of foreign policy
he has appeared content to sit
back and let otherS-Sometimes
the least responsible members
Of his party-do most of the
talking. Since his statement of
American aims on April 16, the
White House has been conspic-
uously silent on foreign affairs.
It is known that no major for
eign policy speech was on the
books between now and the
opening of the Big Three con-
ference in Bermuda sometime
late next month.
While relations between the
United States and it's allies went
into a tailspin. the White House
seemed to stand pat. Others.
like Britain's Clement Attlee
might wonder whether the Presi-
dent or Senator Mccarthy spoke
for American foreign policy.
They might point out that the
whole free world was suffering
from a grievous lack of leader

Crowds outside Westminster

rich pageantry surrounding next
Tuesdays big show-though the
trial run was behind closed doors.
More than 1900 persons took
part in the 21a-hour practice,
carried out with all the trappings
under the watchful eye of the
Duke of Norfolk, who as earl
marshal is directing the coro-
nation.
The dukes wife played the role
of the queen.
Extra mounted police had to
be called to clear the way for

President Assures Arends
On Military Powers

President Eisenhower has as
sured worried congressman that
he has no intention of creating
a Prussian-style military set-up
in the Pentagon.
The Presidents promise was
contained in q letter to Repre-
sentative Arends, Republican, OF
Illinois, one Of several members
Of the House who have expressed
fear the proposed reorganization
of the Defense Department would
give too much power to the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs OF
Staff.
Gen. Eisenhower told Mr.
Arends he has no intention OF
creating a single military stan
run by a single all-powerful chief
in the Prussian manner. He said
the proposed reorganization bill
would not give him that .au-
thority.

Of concern which they felt over
Senator Taft's speech.
Senator Bricker, Republican,
Of Ohio inclined toward the Taft
view, and commented that so far
Congress hasn't had very much
to say about the conduct Of the
Korean war"
But he, too, saw no split be-
tween Senator Taft and the
President and called for the
fullest presentation of both
points of view"
Senator Green, Democrat, of
Rhode Island, said Gen. Eisen-
hover was too easy on Senator
Taft.
1T should have had a much
better effect both at home and
abroad if Mr.. Eisenhower had
expressed the resentment he
should feel" Senator Green de-
clared.
II should think the President
would have resented Mr.. Taft's
statement because it handicaps
him in foreign relations. It is
not only bad taste but disloyalty
to the President to throw a mon
key wrench into the machinery
of foreign relations, and that is
what Mr.. Taft has DONE"
In New York, Secretary of
Commerce Weeks said in a
speech: Despite what you read
in the papers, Bob Taft is giving
the President of the United
States great support. Despite
some differences of opinion, we
are molding the best team-play
between the legislative and
executive branches of the Gov
eminent that I have ever seen
in Washington"
In Los Angeles, Senator Nc
Carran, Democrat. of Nevada
said in an interview he agrdh
with Senator Taft.
Senator Ferguson, Republican,
of Michigan, said he agreed with
the President, except for Gen.
Eisenhower's remark that he
did not know whether he could
go along with a proposal to cut
off United States funds for the
U. N. If Red China is admitted
"a move approved Wednesday
by the Senate Appropriations
Committee. The President said
this would be a very drastic sort
Of cure for something which
he would consider a very grave
| error. H.

ESQ Truckers Strike
Over Pay Raise Issue

Some $50 drivers of concrete
mixing trucks were on strike to-
day after rejecting an offer from
management for a 15-cent-an-
hour pay raise and voting last
night to go off the job.
Charles Bell, business agent for
AFL Tteamsters' Local $50, said
the latest management offer
would have given the raise in
three scent steps. one retroac-
tive to May Is, when the old
contract expired; one on october
S. and the final 5 cents on May
IS, 1854.
The union drivers, who now
get $1.65, are demanding an i'm
mediate increase of Is cents or
an immediate increase of 10
cents plus six paid holidays. They
presently get no paid holidays

Propose Cut 70 Govt. Agencies To Fewer Than 30

WASHINGTON, R = Major surgery on the federal govern ment, to cut it's 70 independent agencies down to 30 or fewer, was proposed to President Eisen- hover in privately financed re- port made public Thursday.
 The Temple University survey of government reorganization was supplied to Eisenhower without publicity after his election in 1852. A few of it's 126 recommendations were embodied in the 10 reorgan- ization plans which Eisenhower proposed and Congress accepted this year.
 The survey urges a drastic, long-range reorganization of the Labor Department. It would start with an act of Congress rewriting the 1913 law which instructs the department to "foster" and 'pro- mote' the welfare of wage earn CTS. The department must earn recognition, it was declared, as a servant of the public at large rather than as a champion of labor.
 Once this is done, the report said, the Labor Department should take over most duties of the Ma tional Labor Relations Board and the Federal Mediation Service, both now independent agencies.
 The report also repeats with emphasis some of the ''hot potato' recommendations of the first Hoover Commission - recommen-- dations which Congress has voted down or has not yet acted on.
 These include merger, in the Interior Department, of the Re- clamation Service and the civil functions of the Army Corps of Engineers; the transfer of Land Management from the Interior Department to the Agriculture Department, and wholesale shakeup of the Veterans Adminis- tration.

White House Discounts
 First Russian Rejection
 Of Atomic Control Plan

WASHINGTON, R-The White House said Thursday the United States still is "very hopeful" So- viet leaders will recognize Presi- dent Eisenhower's international atomic pool proposal ''for what it is "a serious and feasible first step toward atomic peace"
 James C. Hagerty, presidential press secretary, made the state ment in reply to requests for comment on Moscow's adverse re action to Eisenhower's plan.
 Radio Moscow accused the President Wednesday night of threatening atomic war.
 Hagerty read this statement to newsmen:
 We do not believe that inn mediate reaction to President Eisenhower's atomic proposal nec- essarily represents the considered decision of the Soviet government.
 After all, the President always recognized that his suggestion would require thoughtful study.
 Therefore, any 24-hour reac- ton by Soviet officials or by So- viet propaganda media cannot be accepted as anything more than a stopgap interim statement"
