Communists appear now to be preparing 10 | ypger Allied control until its status is settled by the [hope to have discard their “sheep’s clothing.” At least that is one logical interpretation of the press dispatch Friday disclosing the naming of a three-man “Secretariat” with “full authority to act” and to serve as the “authoritative spokesman” for Communist Political Association, Still more aling is the action of the Com- munists’ national committee in setting dates for a special national convention to establish a new “polit- ical line” and “strengthen and refresh” the national leadership of corganized communism in this country. rev It was only a short year ago that the Communists in this country dissolved their political party and embraced ccoperation with free enterprise as a gesture toward “national unity.” That was when the United States was in the thick of the battle in Europe as a brother-in-arms of the U. S. S. R. Russia, the fountain-head of world-wide communism, no longer is engaged in 2 struggle for existence. She now sits atop the heap as victor.

For some time the Yugoslav regime | has made no bones of its desire to annex the entire | Istrian Peninsula, including the port of Trieste, which, as it happens, has an overwhelming Italian popula- | tion. After the German surrender in Italy, Tito's fol- | lowers began to make good that claim by stepping into “ Trieste and taking over the administration of the city and its surrounding area. | This move was objectionable on at least two ’grounds. In the first place, as part of Italy at the | time the latter went to war the Istrian Peninsula clearly belongs within the zone of Allied military | control. Secondly, a Yugoslav fait accompli in Trieste (would have set an extremely dangerous precedent | since it would have given an excuse for other nations | to take unilateral action to aggrandize themselves at | the expense of their neighbors. | The ultimate disposition of Fiume and the Istrian Peninsula, like the settlement of innumerable other | boundary problems that the war has brought into sharp focus, should be left to the Peace Conference. | That is the cnly way anarchy can be prevented in | Europe.

Ellender began in- terrupting the Chairman, and the Chairman asked that there be no more interruptions until he finished making announcements. “But you don’t know what's going on in this Committee,” burst out Ellender. “Why, you've got a wild man here running things for you!™ He referred to Committee Coun- sel Dewey Anderson, former Cali- fornia legislator who hopes to run for the U. S. Senate next year. Anderson and Ellender have m’\'m'l liked each other. “If the Democrats run Anderson for office next year, they'll be giv- ing the Republicans a chance to save campaign expenses,” continued the gentleman from Louisiana. FIGHTING NAMES Murray ignored the outburst, but Ellender, one of the better Louis- | lana politicians, elevated to the Senate by his old friend Huey Long, kept grumbling. when he made comment under his breath, Murray called him a liar. Ellender retorted with a more descriptive name and then started to jump on Murray. Senator Stew- art of Tennessee finally pulled him back into his seat. Ellender continued his com- plaints, without benefit of fist- waving. He complained about a lot of things Anderson had done, in cluding a newsletter to men Anderson started twice a month. fused to approve this publication, although Murray okayed it via long-distance telephone and, ac- cording to Anderson, a majority o the Committee later gave okay. “That is the sort of thing the Cemmittee should .decide upon only after discussion,” Ellender insisted. He and Senator Wherry also complained about the size of the Committee staff and the fact that gome staff members were borrowed from agencies of the executive de- partment—a common practice in the Senate. “This man Anderson won't even tell me who the staff members are,” stormed Ellender. “I've been after a list of them for three weeks, but he keeps pushing me off.” In the end, the Committee over- ruled Ellender on the method of business publish to bolding sub-committee hearings.

Handsome Senator Millard Tyd- ings of Maryland got slightly ex- | cited on the Senate floor this week | about this column’s speculation as |to why he left Manila after fivei |days, when he had expected to re-' main five weeks. !

Mac-| | Arthur barred them all. | When General Kirk got Mac- Arthur's message in Leyte that he was not to proceed on to Manila, | the Surgeon General could scarce- ly believe his eyes. He had im- portant hospitals to visit in several parts of Luzon. So he sent Mac- | Arthur another telegram which said: “Don’t understand your mes- sage.
