Congressional
Viewpoint
Sen. John Marshall Butler

For almost a decade, the secret
negotiations at Yalta, between the
United States England and Russia
have been the subject Of much dis
pute This bartcrng. shrouded al
ways i'm a cloak Of secrecy through
the years. has produced a sense Of
illusion and controversy which has
increased in intensity Of late AS
the suspicion of inequitable and
questionable agreements has been
magnitied, the wide demand for a
clear comprehension Of those de
cisions. affecting as they do the
lives of millions of reedom-loving
people has likewise gained i'm
pelus.
This rightful public curiosity was
satisfied only last Wednesday when
the L. S version of the Yalta trans
actions was officially released by
the Department of State. The cir
cumstances and propriety of re-
moving the veil of secrecy from
these papers at this time are be
yond the scope of this newsletter.
But the cumulative and qualitative
result Of the action will serve, with
force. to shatter the historical fic-
ton which has been noisily aired by
the disciples of the New Deal and

chine candidacy of one Richard }
Daley. who is openly anti-reform
and blatantly pro-machine. Unless
MIR Daley is beaten in the general
election by a Republican, Mayor
Kennelly's defeat will put an end
to the era of good government in
Chicago about which Alr Steven
son was supposed to be enthusi-
astic. That, as mayor Mr. Daley
would take the city we'll back to
its worst days in the view of those
best posted on Illinois politics.
Mr. Butler seems rather weak
imitation of Mr.. Mitchell, his prede-
cessor His silly effort to make a
major issue of the alleged unhap-
piness Of General Ike as an incum-
bent Of the White House. plus Mrs
EiscnhoWer's cold is not quite as
degraded as Mr.. Alitchells effort
to make people believe that the
Presidents support of the Dixon
Yates contract was because his
friend Bobby Jones was small
stakeholder but is nonetheless
quite as absurd
The Stevenson flop from Ken
nelly to Daley ha. greatly grieved
many OF his friends. who had eX-
tolled him as man of high pc
ltical ideals. Even some of his adj
mirers i'm the Americans for Demo
cratic Action were panied. Certain
ly. it makes it impossible for him
cffcctually to pose as a friend of
good government and pure poll
ties However there seems no great
reason for surprise This flop APP
pears On a par with the one he
achieved in the 1852 campaign
Then, after having commended the
Tan-Hartlcy Act. with certain
amendments, he yielded to pres
sure from the labor bosses and took
their view that it really is a slave
labor law"
The fact is that MT. Stevenson is
a wonderful fellow for preaching
political nobility in others. bun per
sonally he is not nearly as noble
as ne is pictured by his devotees.
Should he run in 1856. his part in
this recent Chicago campaign is
not likely to be forgotten Nor is
his alliance with this ugly organi-
cation calculated to do him much
good in the Democratic South,
when it is realized that the real
leader of that machine is the Negro
Congressman from Illinois. the
Hon William Levi Dawson Couple
this with the Democratic effort to
reduce taxes at a time when every
sane and nonpartisan view is OPP
posed-including those Of the two
outstanding Democratic senators,
Byrd, of Virginia and George, Of
Georgia-and one cannot avoid the
conviction that the Democrats at
this session are going the limit as
demagogues.

Whatever the stock may be,

Door = to door peddling of

potential investors should follow
the advice of Chairman Gordon

/. Be sure the company is a

Bill on Museum

The House Public Works Com

authorizing $36 million for plans
and construction of a museum of

The new building would be

mission and the Board of Re-
gents of the Smithsonian.
The bill is sponsored by Rep

YMCAFaces
Tall Problem

The YMCA. which for years
has dealt with men of all sizes,
is faced with a new problem
with today's lanky young men.
New YMCA buildings have to
have larger dormitories, bigger
furniture and longer beds be-
cause today's young men are
much taller than their grand
parents. Eugene R. Mccarthy,
chairman of the National Board
of YMCA's. today told the or
ganization's annual national
council meeting at the Statler
Hotel.
Mr.. Mccarthy said the YMCA
in the United States is in the
midst of the greatest building
boom in its 100-year history.
Since the end of World War II,
he pointed out, the .organiza-
tion has completed 120 new
buildings and 100 more are
under construction.
"New Look" in Building
The increasing number of
woman and girl members is
bringing new features to the
groups buildings, he added.
"Today's YMCA's," he said,
"are much more pleasant places
than their predecessors" The
institutional atmosphere is rap
idly being replaced by the new
look in buildings" he said.
Mr.. Mccarthy reported that
the YMCA is continuing to ex-
perience a drop in membership
of young men but added that
membership of adult men, wom-
en- and girls and boys under 18
is growing rapidly.
800 at Sessions
Three hundred members of the
national council, chief policy
making body of the association,
are attending the three-day ses-
sions which win close Sunday.
Tomorrow's program includes
a discussion of the YMCA's over
seas aid program and a report
on advance findings Of a ma
tional public opinion survey con-
Quoted by George H. Gallup.

Welfare Staff
Plans Speeches

The District Welfare Depart
ment wants to set up a speakers
bureau of experts in its various
activities to tell Washington
what it is doing.
A proposal for such a bureau
was to be made to the Public
Welfare Advisory Council this
afternoon by Welfare Director
Gerard M. Shea.
If approved-and that is
almost certain-the bureau would
operate through Mr.. Shea's
Office. Any group requesting a
speaker on any welfare subject
would have assigned to it an
employe Of the department.
In a circular to be- sent civic,
social and church groups If the
project is approved, the depart
ment offers staff members to
speak on such topics as:
Children on public assistance;
children who need care away
from their own homes: delin-
quent children; feeble-minded
children: emotionally disturbed
children: adoption; the aged,
and disabled.
Speakers will also be available,
the circular says. on such welfare
y,robIeraS as.
The absent father as a factor
In dependency, delinquency and
neglect: population change in
the District and its effect on
welfare needs; neighborhood
concentrations of dependency
and delinquency; the economic
status of the Negro in the Dis
trict: the relationship of well
fare with public health, schools
and police; the partnership Of
public and private welfare; op-
portunities for volunteer service
in the department; financing
public welfare; unmet needs, and
emergency welfare services in
civil defense or disaster relief.
