Danger in One-Mon Government

manager in charge Of each
department.
What Is needed is a small
group to help the President
make policies. The meet
ings Of the present cabinet
and Of the National Security
Council are too large and
include many officials from
executive agencies who are
not cabinet officers. These
two large groups could still
meet periodically, but q
presidential council could
meet every day and function
very much like the board Of
directors does in those large
corporations which confine
membership on the board
largely to operating vice
presidents.
Inc nations OF the British
Commonwealth have q cab
met government In which
decisions are made by the
group. which. in turn, Is
responsible to the majority
party in Parliament. While
America may not be ready
for such a change, the prime
ciple of fixing responsibility
for policy-making in an ex-
ecutive group, rather than
in a single man. is sound
enough to be applied in
America.
The executive branch Of
the United States Govern

Vice President Found More Active

like the White House in
miniature.
The cost and size Of the
Nixon operation show what
q far cry it is from the days
when Vice President John
Nance Cactus jack Garner
and his pals struck their
blows for liberty-with ell
bows bent during the FIRST
eight Roosevelt years.
Mrs. Elite Garner ran her
husbands ONCE with the help
Of q secretary and a handy
man. Cost: $i1,460.
Mr.. Garner. of course. had

ments of the General Services
department of the Govern

have. But he absolutely re-
fused the attentions Of the
Secret Service. Nobody Is
crazy enough to shoot the
Vice President" he always
commended. "P e ople don't
come that crazy" It might

Vice Presidents Wallace and
Truman adhering to the Car

cost the taxpayers tll.460.
But Mr.. Truman always
has frankly and publicly re-
GREETED he did not know more
about the operations Of the
presidency when he succeed

his motion that the Senate
Appropriations Committee
raised the ante for Vice
President Barley to $47,970.
Mr.. Barley. with his reser-

The first appropriation for
Vice President Nixon in fiscal

publican campaign Of 1856.
