THRESHINC OLD STRAWS

The historians, who write about
this era, will be deeply in the debt
of Sen. Everett Mckinley Dirksen
the orator from Illinois, for two slips
of the tongue, both made in one
speech, which may be remembered
when the utterances of other states
men are long forgot.
1t was Dirksen, rising to the defense
of Clare Booth Luce, who pleaded
with his colleagues to go easy. "Why
beat bag of old bones?" he asked,
when he meant simply to say, "Why
rehash old issues? Now some un-
kind Democrats have come along and
mischievously misinterpreted another
part of that same speech in, which
Dirksen asked, "Why keep threshing
old straws?"
The remark is quoted almost daily
as debate proceeds on the confirma-
tion of Admiral Lewis Strauss for
Secretary of Commerce. The Admiral
has himself, of course, to blame for
this unfortunate pun on his name.
Everyone else pronounces it 'strowce',
but he insists that it be pronounced
'straws'.
That is the only humor, though,
that has been evident in the debate
so far. The fact is that it has been
a rather grim affair, with both sides,

lation bonds which have al
ready been paid for with gov
eminent money. This will re-
quire their payment second
time-and maybe a third and
fourth time. This does not make
any kind of sense.
"The reason for this is that
the people are not informed
about it and make no protest,
and members of Congress are
under terrific pressure from the
banking lobby that will profit
so handsomely from this give
away" P t m n declared.
Members of Congress are busy
with other urgent matters, and
their constituents are not press
ing them because they see
about the giveaway in
the daily newspapers and hear
about it over television
or radio"
Patman said he will attempt
to block the giveaway when
the so-called vault Cash Bill"
comes up in the House.-LA-

Health Service in the four years this
somewhat limited program has been
in operation has confirmed that the
air around us isn't "just what the
doctor ordered" Their national find
ing is that that 80 pounds of air we
breathe daily contains a mixture
of dusts, gases, mists, odors, smokes
and vapors which include some of the
most noxious and filthy substances
imaginable" So the air we breathe,
particularly in big city areas, is a
grave health hazard which may have
relationship to lung and stomach
cancer. Experiments have produced
tumors in the lungs of animals having
prolonged exposure to auto, bus and
truck fumes. This problem is par
ticularly acute in metropolitan areas
such as right here in the nations

/ say why they are for or against the
Admiral.
Strauss supporters, I think, have
descended to new depths in demogogy
when they insist that he is being per-
secuted because he is Jewith and
compare his treatment to that of
Captain Alfred Dreyfus in France
half century ago. There is not the
slightest comparison. In fact an argu-
ment can be made that it is Strauss
himself who has sometimes played
the role of "persecutor" for his part
in instigating the 'triap of DIR. J.
Robert Oppenheimer and driving that
eminent scientist out of government.
On the other hand, Strauss oppo-
nents have thus far not really told
why they oppose him.
The argument is not whether
Strauss has an unfortunate personal
ity or whether he is a"nit-picker'' or
quibbler, or arrogant and conde-
scending. He may be all of these. The
question is whether the Secretary of
Commerce in an administration which
calls itself modern Republican"
should be so banker-oriented and so
close to "Hover-Republicani as
Strauss obviously is?
If that is what the President wants,
I suppose he is entitled to surround
himself with men of his choice. But
opponents have a right to
object to this mislabelling. Only they
ought to do it and not try to convict
him on extraneous issues. 1t is more
a question of philosophy rather than
one of integrity.
THE DEMOCRATS DILEMMA
The way the Strauss affair has
gone up to now is merely another in
dication of how the Democrats in the
Senate continue to act as if they were
afraid to be known as the party of
liberalism on domestic economic is
sues.
What are the real objections to
First, that his record with the
Atomic Energy Commission showed
a subservience to the viewpoint of the
private power lobby. He showed it
not only in the Dixon-Yates affair
but in nearly all his plans Cor the
way he has delayed plans) for the
development of peace-time use of
atomic energy. While the rest of the
western nations move ahead. we con-
inue to lag because the private power
want all the benefit of the
esearch paid for by the taxpayers,
While retaining all the profits and
ontrol in their own hands.
The next objection is that Strauss
; considered even more conservative
han his predecessor, Sinclair Weeks,
yhen it comes to initiating moves to
id depressed areas, increase aid for
he unemployed, or trying to work
ut trade agreements with the Iron
urtain countries. In these areas. ex-
ept the last, it must be acknowledged
nat his opponents are guessing on
ne basis of his past performance.
hey are sure what he might do be-
ause Strauss himself apparently has
OF given the matters too much
fought up to this point.
But they do know the Secretary
Commerce enjoys a strategic posi-
on in shaping the domestic policy.
S one newspaper critic said recently
: approaches everything "from the
ewpoint of Wall Street rather than
ON the viewpoint of Main Street."
If this summary of Democratic OBJ
ctions is correct, and l think it is,
hy not say so in simple. clear lam
lage? Then the issue will be Joined
Id the Senate vote will become a
st of liberalism VS.. conservatism,
hich is the only relevant argument
