Marks of Sabotage and FiIibuster Seen
In Delay by Senate Democrats

The Senate bubbles while
the Middle East burns and
American leadership is frus-
trated. Will the American
people begin to ask themselves
soon if they made a grave
mistake in electing a Demo-
cratic Congress last Novem-
Der? For the effects of a
divided government--with one
party in control of the White
House and the opposite party
in control of Congress-are
growing so serious as possibly
to endanger the peace of the
United States.
The leadership of the United
States-and particularly the
leadership of President Eisen-
hover which has meant so
much throughout the world
to the cause of peace and the
prevention of World War III
is being steadily undermined
by a group of captious Demo-
Gratis in the Senate. They are
making all kinds of excuses
for delaying passage of the
Eisenhower doctrine resolu-
ton. This delay has every
appearance of sabotage and
fllibuSter.
The Senate has had ample
time for debate-from the
week of January 7 when the
resolution was introduced. But
after seven weeks of drifting,
the leader of the Senate. DEM
ocrats, Lyndon johnson of
Texas. had to say frankly to
the Senate that one of the
problems he had last week
was TO find one Senator
TO speak and another to
be present. He said the
senate ltSeu Is on tflal
because the country cannot
understand why so few Sen
ators have been present during
the discussion of an issue as
important as the Middle East
resolution.
Yet, when the Democratic
leader attempted to set a time
limit for the debate, a Demo-
cratic Senator promptly served
notice he would object and, of
course, only one objection is
necessary TO block an agree
ment to limit debate.
This has all the earmarks of

killed the citrus and olive
crops. SPANS main export
items. The cost of living went
up for the absolute neces-
sites of the people.
There was. of course, a good
deal Of mismanagement on
the part of inexperienced or
greedy government officials
who believed that because Of
their Importance in the Falange
Party they could get away
with anything they wanted.
There were strikes and rest
lessness. not only in the indus
trial centers of Spain but also
in the usually placid farming
areas. This induced Franco
to act promptly and bring new
and more liberal-minded peo-
pie to his cabinet. But these
changes alone are unlikely to
solve the problem.
Franco points out that his
administration did not get into
a spending hinge of its own.
He was urged by the Ameri-
can economic advisers to
streamline the industrial Struc-
ture of the country by Great
ing modern factories, increas-
ing salaries and wages and
undermining farming methods
by replacing the peasants
mules with American tractors.
Our economic and financial
planners, realizing that Con-
gress may no longer be as
liberal in doing out dollars as
IN the past, have told Franco
that he must put his house in
order. They criticize him for
corresponding and assuming
expenses which SPANS econ
omy is unable to meet. The
fact that the Madrid govern
ment was being urged to go
ahead and introduce new
agricultural and industrial
methods in line with progress
IS being overlooked.
The Spanish head of state.
in an attempt to comply with
these demands, has changed
his cabinet but insists that the
American advisers show how
his budget can be balanced.
Our own budget for next year
is certainly not a perfect exam
pie of economy to be followed
by a country in straits.

& filibuster by a bloc of Demo-
Gratis who do not favor the
resolution but know that if it
comes to a vote it will pass by
a substantial majority. The
Republicans generally have
spoken in favor of it and are
ready to vote, so the tactics of
the Democrats now are to drag
the debate along from day to
day with one or two Senators
to do the speaking.
But the country will hold the
Democratic Party responsible
for what happens in the SEN
ate. The House. under the
statesmanlike leadership of
Speaker Rayburn. Democrat,
passed the resolution promptly
by vote of $50 to 81 on Janu-
airy 80. but the House has rules
with which to limit debate and
prevent an organized minority
from filibustering.
1t is a strange and unusual
development to see members
of the United States Senate
filibuStering on a matter of
foreign policy. The last episode
of this kind was fatal. A
handful of Senators - mostly
Republicans--would not let a
resolution pass which PreSi-
dent Wilson, Democrat, wanted
in order to arm American
merchantmen and repel at
tacks by German submarines.
The filibuster lasted till Con-
gresS automatically adjourned
at noon on March 4, 1917. But
the encouragement derived by
the Kaiser from this disunity
in America was such that I'M
restricted warfare by his SUBJ
marines was soon begun
against vessels of all flags. and
the consequence was that
within four weeks-on April
6, l917-the United States had
to enter World War l to de-
fend the rights of American
citizens to travel the high
seas.
There are Democratic Sena-
tors who say they see no
urgency" in the situation,
thus setting themselves up as
better judges Of the risks in

George (Whitey) Robe. who

Series. died in General Hospital
yesterday. He was 81.

The Cubs were 3-to-l favorites
over the Hitless Wonders in the
1906 series. George Davis, the
Sox' regular shortstop, was hurt
when the playoff began. so Lee
Tannehill moved over from third
to short and Robe filled in at

'k|u' Declares
He'sReady Now

PITTSBURGH. June II R.-
Big Ted Kluszewski. who has
been treating his ailing back
with bump and grind" treat
ments, said today he's ready to
play for the Redlegs, but Mana
ger Birdie Tebbetts has adopted
a wait-and-see attitude.
Ted. who has played only one
full game this season, is now
optimistic about his physical
condition which a few weeks ago
had him in the dumps and fear
ing an operation.
I'm ready to try and play"
he said last night. "As far as
my back holding up. one never
knows. I'll just have to play
and see. But I'm swinging better
now than l have in over year
and I'm not being bothered too
much by pain"
A specialist suggested to Klu
several weeks ago that he try and
remedy his own condition by
doing some bump and grind"
exercises - something like the
burlesque girls.
They seem to have helped, :"
Klu grinned. And I've been
getting about 80 or 40 minutes
of batting practice every day"
Klu took his regular turn in
batting practice last night. He
sent two of the first five pitches
into the right-field stands

ski said.

He said he had 5000 reports

the kid might be the best back
on the squad" Joe added.
While it's an honor to be chosen
for the Chicago game. the invi-
tation imposes a terrific burden
on a player with pro aspirations.
Rockies are given small doses of
strategy. along with a gruelling
training routine the first two
weeks in camp. At the end Of
that period they are either in
Al condition. or aren't going to
be. and they have some idea Of
the offense.
Thus a player reporting from
the All-Star game usually is a
little behind in training and hor-
ribly green about the clubs

Dump all that work on them
in one load" Joe said. and
they're lost. Even the bright kids
who catch on quickly need some
time to absorb 1t"
The only possible good to be
derived from the All-Star game
is at the box Office. When the

delphia Eagles. fan interest sky

the same boys are thrown in

possibly show the same smooth

ATCHISON'S
A NGL E
BY LEWIS +. ATcHISON

The gradual but encouraging
change in the Senators fortunes
since the change in managers
about a month ago might make
an interesting thesis for this
years graduating class. Under
Charlie Dresser they won four
games and lost Is and seemingly
were headed for an all-time
record in futility. Since Cookie
Lavagetto took charge a little
more than a month ago they've
won IA and lost 10. In a word,
the boys played 200 ball for
Charlie but have stepped it up
to 1874 under Cookie.
What's the answer?
Did Dresser get the most out
Of his men or had things reached
the depressing so-what stage?
Is the improvement, however
slight. due to better handling
of the squad by Lavagetto. the
addition of Rocky Bridges and
Bob Usher. or would the team
have perked up even if Dresser
had continued in command?
Whatever the reason, the Sem
ators have improved and kan
sas City papers please copy
shouldn't finish last. They might
climb a couple of notches II
Chuck Stobbs finds the winning
formula and the team gets a
break here and there. 1t is sig
nif1cant that the team is attract
ing more attention from the
man on the street since it started
winning one here and there. A
half a loaf. it seems. can be very
satisfying.
II Dressen's early-season STRAIT
egg didn't work, give him credit
at least, for swinging the deals
that brought Bridges and Usher
to Washington-deals that have
strengthened the club. BY the
same token. Lavagetto is proving
to be an able manager, able to
salve whatever wounded feelings
Charlie left behind. Cookie has
been able to get the most out OF
what he has. 1t may be enough
to keep the club alive until 1t
gets some first-division players
Curly Lambeau's action in
