THOMAS l. STOKES
COP. Tries Nostalgia Approach

sonally and OF his adn1inistra-
ton. which was interspersed
with unktnd sallies at thk
Democratic foes.
It is perhaps only natural
that the drive to get the PIES
ident TO become a candidate
for denomination should finally
adopt the nostalgia note; for
that typifies the melancholy
mood which comes over Re-
publicans at the very thought
that the party might have TO
face November without him ct
the head Of the ticket,
1t is interesting to consider
the various stages Of the cam
paign by Republicans to try to
convince themselves that the
President will run again.
1t first took the form Of
making out that the presi-
dency really isn't q very hard
job, and that a man might do
il on the part-time basis.
Bluntly. the President
scotched any such idea. He
made 1t plain that he regards
the presidency as being a full
time job and let 1t be known
he would only consider filling
it for a second term II he had
the necessary physical energy
and stamina.
Then the line was that the
President, after . taste Of re-
tirement at his Gettysburg
farm, had found he would be
bored by such q life. To the
contrary. he said. scouting such
an idea, there were all sorts
Of things he had wanted 70
do all his life which he could
do at Gettysburg. No. he GER
tainly would not be .bored.
Now the procedure is TO
enter the President in prima-
ries all around and thus just
take 1t for granted that he
is going to run again. in the
hope that he also will come
TO take 1t for granted and
remember back to 1952-back
to New Hampshire and Mime
sofa In March.

Nostalgia. it seems, is the
newest lure to try to induce
President Eisenhower to run
again.
You can almost hear the
theme song:

New Hampshire and Mime

the twin explosions that got
the Eisenhower candidacy of
to a looming start in 1852,
never to be headed. New
Hampshire was the first ex-
citing episode when Gen. Eli
senhower, in absentia in Paris.
defeated the late Senator Rob-
ert A. Taft of Ohio in the
first presidential primary in
the Nation, as 1t viii be again
this year.
That victory was topped of
by what came to be called 1.-THE
Minnesota Miracle" a psyche
logical triumph that gave the
Eisenhower managers a bigger
thrill than New Hampshire.
After the generals name had
been filed in Minnesota, it
was thrown off the ballot by
the State Supreme Court which
upheld a challenge of sigma

Democrats says the bill 10

the oilmen who produce gas
are influencing the votes Of
the other faction Of the Demo-

not been suspected that any
Democratic leaders could ever
be tied UP with ''big business"
One Democratic Party
spokesman says that nobody
in Congress who owns any oil

crat who is defending the bill

If this theory Of conflict of

hardly anybody in Congress

When Senator Ed Thye, Re-

today to have been answered by
the Pentagon.
Secretary OF Defense Wilson
said at q press conference yes
terday he will appoint a guided

find a good one. The Secretary
specified that the car idea was
his own. one he had been think
ing about for some time without
help from Democrats.
Senator jackson warned the
Senate yesterday that the
United States was in danger of
losing the race with Russia TO
produce the first 1.500-mile
guided missile.
A member Of the Armed Serv-
ice Committee and the Military
Applications Subcommittee OF
the Joint Committee on Atomic

sidered to be in a good position
to know the details Of the guild
ed missile race.

He has said a 1,500-mile mis-
sile in Russian hands could DOM
mate all of Europe and much
of Africa and Asia and would
be a blackmail threat forcing
American friends toward neu-

dicted Russia would fire such a
missile before the year is out.

Democratic Schism Over Gas Bill
And Shipping Aren't Helping Party

Congress Is cast against the
desires Of minority pressure
groups. The conflict usually is
between keeping and losing a
job that now pays $22.500 a
year.
Every day members of Con-
gress have to decide whether
TO be courageous or expedient.
Much Of the blame rests on the
uninfermed electorate, espe-
cially those selfish groups
which don't want issues de-
cided on their merits but on
the basis of special privilege.
By their activities, they punish
or threaten to punish 9 con-
scientious legislator.
Too much Of the time Of men
in public life Is taken UP with
picayunish things. The de-
bate concerning Secretary of
Agriculture Benson. who is
represented as praising a mag
azine article he never saw
though his alleged views were
contained in a letter which he
never signed-is a good ex-
ample. Of how they make
mountains out of molehills
here.
In the House of Representa-
tives a Democrat Congressman
the other day even went to the
extent of citing former Presi-
dent Truman's notorious let
tiers to the Marines and to a
music critic. He boosted that
Mr.. Truman didn't diSavow
them and was to be COM
mended. The inference is that
Mr.. Benson should have adj
mitted that he agreed with the
contents of a letter which
didn't represent his views.
AS for letters written by Mr..
Truman, he signed two Of
them-one in 1916 and one in
l947-praising the late Harry
Dexter White, Treasury De-
partment official, even after
j. Edgar Hoover, director of
the Federal Bureau Of Investi-
cation, had personally advised
MIR. Truman that he was con-
vinced White had questionable
relations with a Soviet spy
ring. Mr.. Truman probably

But on the other hand all they
