All the hullabaloo about
duplicate dresses turning up
at big Washington functions
seems to us to be much ado
about nothing. The comment
by one Of our colleagues, Bet
ty Beale. that store buyers
ought to watch this amuses us
no end.
First of all to understand
why two dresses, one on the
Presidents wife and one on a
guest are alike is very simple.
Those dresses come from the
same manufacturer who can
sell one, two, or three stores in
a city and other stores
throughout the country as well.
The dress Mrs. Eisenhower
wore was such a dress. There
are many more like it scattered
from Washington to San
Francisco.
Mollie Parnis, the designer
Of the dress, says she tries not
to use the same fabric as that
selected by Mrs. Eisenhower in
other dresses shipped out to
other points. However, such
was the case in the incident
that happened. So what?
What would really be an
event would be to have two
women show up at the same
party in the same costume
made by the same designer
but custom-made for each,

consolation. The mere fact
that many dresses are turned

Presidents Policies
Hit by Roosevelt

drag him down to the level Of
his own party"
OF the Yalta papers, Mr..
Roosevelt contended the coun-
try would suffer for years to
come because of the manner
of their release. The President
has indicated, he said, that
any four-power conference
should be kept informal. But
he asked how there could ever
be another informal confer
ence when participants know
their conversations probably
would be released "for political
purposes"
Nor must the President be
permitted to avoid RESPONSE
bility for release of the papers
with the statement that the
Secretary of State hasn't told
him it was going to happen"
he asserted.
1T is the duty of the Presi-
dent to know about such
things and he is not properly
performing the functions of
his office if he doesn't" Mr..
Roosevelt declared.
Absence mo Excuse"
The fact that the President
was at Gettysburg when Chou
En-lai, Red Chinese Premier,
made his offer to discuss ten
sions in the Far East was mo
excuse" for the State Depart
ment to issue a statement
which later was almost COM
pletely reversed" when the
Secretary of State returned to
Washington, he added.
Mr.. Roosevelt also criticized
what he called the "inex-
cusable vascillation, distrust
and near hysteria that has
come about in the polio vac
cine situation" He quoted the
Presidents announcement the
Federal Government would
take over if it becomes neces-
sary to see that no child goes
without vaccine. But such &C
ton should come in time to
prevent crisis and not after
a crisis has developed, he
declared.
Mr.. Roosevelt suggested that
Basil O'Connor, president Of
the National Polio Foundation,
would be a logical choice to
run such a program. "He
knows the problem and he is
available" he said. But he has
two drawbacks. He was a law
partner of my father. And he's
a Democrat"
Senate Republican Leader
Knowland came in for an in
direct barb from the speaker
in a discussion of the interna-
t1onal situation. The hopes Of
the world are built about the
United Nations, he said, and
Democrats should begin now
to show that the United States
is not going to pull out of the
U. N.-Knowland or no Know
land"
He also referred to the Cali
fornia Senator in charging that
unless the President can unite
his own party he is endanger-
ing the safety Of our country.
Senator Knowland contradicts
the President almost within
the hour after he has spoken"
he said, and added: But it's
not confined to Knowland."

Representative James Roose-
welt launched a broad attack
yesterday on what he called a
myth" fostered by the COP,
that President Eisenhower is
above all the failures of his
administration"
The California Democrat
linked the President with
blame for release of the Yalta
papers, an action he referred
to as incredible stupidity"
He deplored the Presidents
position on the polio vaccine
situation" And, hitting at dis
unity among the Republicans.
he asked: IF the President
can't speak for his own party,
how can he go abroad and
speak for the United States?"
At the same time, Mr..
Roosevelt said the Democratic
National Committee Chair
man should call a meeting OF
Democratic leaders to define
an overall program on which
every Democratic organiza-
ton can begin campaigning
now to elect a President in
1856.
Cites Current Polls
Addressing the Woman's
National Democratic Club, Mr..
Roosevelt said all the polls in
dictate that the pressure on
Mr.. Eisenhower to run again
may be overwhelming. The
Democrats, he warned, must
begin their battle now Ito
beat the best" (There would
be no difficulty in beating the
two candidates from Califor-
MA" he commentedD
Mr.. Eisenhower's election
was due to a belief by the
voters that he was "above pol
itics," he declared, and pre-
dicted the Republicans would
