therein lies the lingering sus-

minister and foreign minister

found an atmosphere-par-

Republicans in Congress will

It will be helpful that they are
represented on the committee

Dirksen and Representative
Halleck.
This is one of the major diff
ferences between the G. o. P.
group and the Democratic Adj

being compared, especially now
that it has so notably embraced
the egghead influence. Speaker

Eisenhower Republican Heads Group,
OFF to Promising Start on Program

The attempt to chart a
comeback trail for the Re-
publican Party got underway
last week end in Highland
Park. Ill. This courageous
enterprise is in the hands
of the 43-member G. o. P.
Committee on Program and
Progress, whose chairman is
Charles H. Percy. president
of the Bell and Howell Co.
The committee got ac-
quainted with the new ma
tional chairman, Senator
Morton of Kentucky, and
listened to more college pro-
fessors than most of them
had seen since their college
days. The old pro touch was
lent by Gov. Stratton of IL
linois, who dined with them
Saturday night at the Percy
residence.
The scuttlebutt emanating
from this occasion is that in
the interests of his candidacy
for Vice President next year,
Stratton may seek to break
the jinx on a third term for
the Governor of Illinois. 1t
had been expected that
Stratton next year would OPP
pose Senator Paul Douglas.
whom Democrats expect to
renominate and re-elect.
The motives attributed to
Stratton are his desire to
remain in command of the
large Illinois delegation to
the national convention and
his realization that Douglas
would be hard to beat. I'LL
nois Democrats refer to the
potential candidates for Gov
ernor as worthy" rather
than formidable" which in
politics is a sharp distinction.
Democrats also are cycling
Percy's activities with a
dawning suspicion that he
might like to replace Doug
las. Douglas has defeated two
extreme right-wing Republic
cans; in the vigorous young
Percy he would confront an

views, while less liberal than

short, is the kind of working
liberal who believes that slow
progress, even II imperfect
progress, is better than mere
shouting demands for the i'm
possible.
1t is easily possible to draw
the impression that Mr.. Tru-
man is not enchanted with
any of the liberal extremists.
And he hopes this kind OF
liberal will not dominate the
conventions platform COM
mittee. Actually, Mr.. Tru-
man himself expects to have
an important hand in that
committee, as he did in the
1856 compromise. If he is
not himself a member he will
have well : briefed friends
there.
He sees the 1856 compro-
mise, in fact, as a decent one
then and a decent one for
1860. He does not, of course,
want the party to run away
from the issue to please the
South. But he does not see
the point of unnecessary
provocation Of the Southern
ers. And he is aware that
more important than any
platform, and almost as i'm
portant as the text Of any
civil rights law. is the kind
of administration to be had
Of civil rights laws already
enacted and to be enacted.
What Mr.. Truman wants,
in sum, is for the Democrats
to draw together on the many
issues on which at bottom
they are united and not to
over-inflate the one issue on
which they really are apart.
He thinks the party should

He is undoubtedly fully
convinced, not just for the
record but in his bones, that
the Democrats are going to
regain the White House in
so. and certainly so if they
remain reasonably united.
Accordingly, he has set as
one of his main tasks an ac-
commodation of the civil
rights issue that win rest
upon the compromise plank
adopted by the 1856 conven-

want the party to go signi-

Neither the agreement be-

possibility OF a deadlock at
next weeks meeting with the
Russians at Geneva changes
more than fieetingly the
complex international pic
ture.
The real test OF the shape
OF things TO come win be
largely determined at the
summit conference between
the heads OF state Of four Or
more of the great pow
ers where Soviet Premier
Khrushchev viii play the
star role. This Is the feeling
in the capitals Of the free
world and explains in part
the reason why the Paris
conference was a quick sue
cess"
Those attending the Paris
session - all realists - knew
that whatever they decided
was for the consumption Of
the public in the free coun-
tries and that their agree
ment was unimportant in
relation to the overall pic
ture of the world crisis.
The leaders of interna-
tional communism care little
what blueprint is agreed on
by the free world. Mr.. X in
particular is hell bent on
having his meeting at the
summit. And although diplo-
matically speaking nothing
has been decided about
whether and when the
American. British and
French heads of government
will meet the Kremlin boss,

tend to yield to his pressing
demands and only the place

For Strauss
BY the Associated Press

Wide-ranging Democratic at
tacks apparently have strength
ened President Eisenhower's de-
termination to have Lewis L.
Strauss for his Secretary OF
Commerce.
Mr.. Strauss nomination has
been opposed by Senator Ke-
fauver. Democrat of Tennessee,
and others in appearances be-
fore the Senate Commerce Com
mittee. They have centered
their fire on his activities when
he was chairman of the Atomic
Energy Commission.
Republican leaders quoted
Mr.. Eisenhower as telling them
in recent White House confer
ences he regards it as a shame
that Mr.. Strauss has been de-
prived of confirmation for SO
long. The President expressed
similar sentiments at his news
conference last week.

| firmed when his nomination is

ate. Democratic strategists said
that despite the controversy
surrounding the Cabinet men,

their members will vote to
approve him.
Mr.. Strauss has been serving
in the Cabinet post under a
recess appointment. His formal
nomination was sent to the
Senate January II.

stretched out even further be-
fore there is action.

Warning to water babies

You can encourage a baby who is

helping hands and praising words
Everybody does better with applauseD.
But if your child's muscles aren't yet
mature enough, he can't make it alone
no matter how much you try to
teach or help him.
o How can you tell when baby's
ready to try walking? Watch him in
the play pen; if he enjoys housekeeping
as he hangs onto the rail, he'd probably
like to hold your hands and take tour
around the room. Pushing a chair il
also a good way to practice; too much
hand-holding can make baby depend
too long on your hands for support.
o When win your baby begin to
walk? A wiry little athlete may very
well choose to step out by 10 months
but an easy-going child may not
bother to try walking till ID months,
or even later. The average: from IL
to Is months.
