the second time that the Commu-

South Korean government leader.
Indian 1t. Gen. K. S. Thimayya

mand that the NNRC would not
acknowledge the letters nor meet
with South Korean representa-

He said the MIRO could deal

Before they get their seats really warm

a good many congressman will be wonder
ing why in the world they knocked off last
August instead of keeping on with the lob.
Added to staggering load of new legisla-
ton, the desperate need to make an inn
preSslVe showing for the voters, and the
practical necessity of adjOurning in time to
electlOneer, are the odds and ends they failed
70 dispose OF before grabbing their satchels
last summer-Such items as statehood for
Hawaii and Alaska, Customs simplifcatiOn
and that st. Lawrence Seaway, to mention
a few.
They're got to do something about taxes
but what? People want them cut. ex-
pect them cut, were told before election

ter be done about fixing up the Taft-Hartlev

Social Security extension.

pick issues as the Reciprocal Trade Act.
farm ii price supports at 80 per cent parity,
SOIL conservation programs, a double-hand
Iul OF housing laws, and various defense
measures.
There's plenty more, but that will give
you an idea of what's already on the docket
mweeks ~, before the schOol-bell rings again.
There can be no doubt that the time has come
when the Congress of the United States is
a twelve-mOnths business-whether our So

Communism And COnfiScatiOn
Regardless of the merits of the
BrOwnell-Truman-Hoover contrO-
versy, the resulting revelation of
Communist infiltratiOn into high
places in our Government is pro-
fOundly shocking 1t is true that most
OF the individuals-White, Glesser,
COe, PerlO, Silverman, ct al-have
been eliminated But the effect of
their influence on our national
policies is still strong
International law and tradition
among civilized nations demands
that property of enemy aliens seized
in time Of war be returned upon
the cessation of hOstilities. We have
so provided in over forty treaties
with various nations.
In 1945 a Communist cell in the
Treasury Department, acting in the
interests not of the United States,
but of Soviet Russia, foisted an
entirely different policy on us. This
group, headed by the late Harry
Dexter White, formulated what be-
came known as the MOrgenthau
Plan Among other things it pro-
vided that the private property of
German nationals seized during the
war be not returned afterwards,
but permanently confiscated.
Because of this policy, the United
states now finds itself in the absurd
poSltlon of pouring billions into
west Germany to build her I'm ae n
potential ally and at the same time
refusing to return the property of
German citizens. This is stnnid
pSyCuOIOSy.
Ihe time has come for corrective
action. West Germany is an import
ant potential ally in the fight against
communism. We must have the
willing cooperation and trust of
her people. The billions that we
pour into West Germany will not
DO half as much to gain that CO.
operation and trust as the return to
her citizens of the property which
is rightfully theirs.

Dear Friends:
Early yesterday morning we four
Dickersons piled in our station
wagon and headed east to go sight
seeing again. All l could think of
as we rode along was our Christ
mas trip that we hope to make
going in the same direction. We're
hoping Uncle Sam will approve a
leave for us in two weeks and l
just wished yesterday the time had
arrived for our journey.
The children were in the back
playing doctor and nurse and
Lynne furrOwed her brow and said,
Mother, what did doctors wear in
the old days when you were
young?" l was no good the rest
of our trip after that. The month,
beginning tomorrow, will bring my
28th birthday and l didn't think /
looked as old as Lynne implied. It
just takes that much to dampen
your spirits some time.
We were heading for Independ-
ence, Missouri, yesterday. 1t is
about 10 miles east of Kansas City.

"Harry's town." but the downtown
section looked about the same as
Abilene, Kansas, President Eisen-
hOwer's bOyhOOd home. Both towns
have a square" as most of these
small midwestern towns do. In In
dependence the court house is the
center of town and the shopping
area encircles this building.
One of the requisites of all of our
trips is to obtain post cards for my
collection, so we headed for a drug
store in the square. We found the
cards and then went to a counter to
pay for them and to find directions
to the Truman home The lady Civ

road is all torn up" This mean

at each other and then she said.
We'll, it's just like this picture on

for her meager information and

Secretary of Labor James p
Mitchell, in his first significant
speech as a Cabinet member. told
the 700 delegates that our labor
problems are too serious TO he
carried into the White House bv the
back stairs, as was the case toc
often in the past. He also told
them there sOuld be no more talk
or repeating the Taft-Hartiev Act
and that attention should be focused
on those features of the Act which
are really dangerous to Labor.
really loaded, really unfair"
He was working, he said, to bCOst
the present IS cents an hour mini
mum wage, but was not ready to
endorse the CIO figure of S1.25. He
wants less Government Intervention
In labor disputes, more incentives
for the disputants to solve their
own differences. In general. he
wants to promote harmony and an
adult viewpoint
The two spOkesmen for the Eisen-
hover Administration got about the
same hand which might be
lndelicately described as the back
OF it. The very polite delegates then
voted resolution to the effect that
the President and the Administra-
tiOn are not keeping the solemn
promise TO make the Taft-Hartley
Act "just, fair and decent.
We don't know, of course. whether
the CIO and the AFL will really
cOnsummate their much discussed
nuptials, or for that matter, whether
they are really engaged. But it Iohks
from here as though they see eye
tO-eye on the Eisenhower Admins
tratiOn. The AF'L convention, you
may recall, being a little less
polished than the Reuther forces,
was not above sneering at the
Presidents goodwill ambassadors.
and their political director called
for a war-chest to keep a ground
swell of public opinion going that
Eisenhower and all his mOneyed
hackers will hesitate to buck"
But we should never forget that
labOr-conventiOn delegates are not
the rank-and-file. And they are on
exceedingly shaky ground when
they presume to tell the member
ship how to vote.
