You'd be amazed to learn how many people think the Democrats stand for democracy and the Republicans for something entirely different “Article four or says we have a of government, and the more we can stress the word ‘republican’ in that connection, the better off the Constitution republican form we are. We are simply playing into the hands of the Democrats when constantly we stress the word ‘democracy’. Hereafter let's use our own word — ‘Republican’, with a small ‘r’. It's just as good a word, and for our purposes, much hetter.” * % ANOTHER MISSGURILN If President Truman eails Ches- ter Davis of Louis bavk into the government a 15 now ru- mered, it will be the most resound- rebu’t to ¥DR thut Trumain s administecred thus far. For Chester Davis was about the only man Roosevell ever got sore at publicly when they broke relations D then War Food Ad- mi; ad been rowing with Economic .Stabilizer Vinson over of farm products and was g to resign Finally Byrnes, Judge Vinson, and other Roo: advisor had a long sessi Davis in his hotel they had him sold and co- operation But at the end of the conference, Justice several ) with Davis, without telling anyone, went out of the hotel, got his car, drove around to the White House and handed in curt letter of resignation. Roosevelt then issued one of the most caustic ters of his career Talk at the White House now is that Davis, “head of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, will be brought in’to replace John Snyder Reconversion Administrator also of St. Louls. Wisecracks cutside the White House are that Davis ha one good gualification for the job. Like both Truman and Snyder, he is from Missouri. * x % CONGRESSMAN “STALIN" (COX The Rules Committee of the House of Representatives sup- Con- posed to be the toughest cooperative member knocking at is to be established s and not by decisions we hope that Congress 1is issue and act to preserve competition | ¢ For if the court’s interpreta- | ¢ tion of the law should be allowed to stand, it would | gis claim any 1 to open its mem- | op1e industries mbers That somethi care and hospi for the rural ares >ss ever intended ations to would entail amor fix physicie each type of The socia 5 will need m n to it | gress—and usually deserves that reputation. But the other day when a group of ladies called on Chairman Adolf Sabath of Illinois to urge passage of the UNRRA Appropriation Bill he courteously ushered them into his Rules Com- mittee And while such labor-baiters as Howard Smith of Virginia and Eugene Cox of Georgia listened at- tentive Mrs. Dana Bachus, Vice- Oha! 1 of the Women’s Action Committee for Lasting Peace, argued that we were reneging on our pledged not pass the immediately. Later, one of the group, Mis. Edgar Ansel Mowrer, wife of the well-known news commentator, sought out Congressman Cox in the privacy of his office. Cox is considered one of the toughest and word if Congress did UNRRA appropriation most reactionary members of the Rules Committee, but to Mrs. Mowrer he was the height of Southern cordiality. “My dear, come right in at once,” said the gentleman from Georgia. Cox listened carefully, but told Mrs. Mowrer that he was suspicious of Russia. The UNRRA Relief Bill, he feared, was playing right into Russian hands. “But,” said Mrs. Mowrer, we going to let the Russians that the capitalist nations make a lot of promises and then turn round and don't carry them out?” Then she tried a new tack. “You know, Congressman,” said Mr Mowrer, who has travelled all over the world, “you remind me very much of Stalin as I once him working in the Kremlin, He's a tough cookie, and you are too. The Congressman from Georgia seemed to like this comparison, but he didun't budge regarding the UNRRA appropriation. WHY HURLEY BOILED What really made ex-cowboy Ambassador Pat Hurley boil over against the career diplomats was an incident that occurred when he in Washington on leave shortly after V-J Day. During Hurley's visit in ington, George Atcheson, an old China hand,” remained in acting charge of the U. S. Embassy in Chungking. In that capacity he sent a telegram to the State De- partment which said: “I and the undersigned members of th: Embassy Staff wish to dis- sponsibility” for re- “are saw administer a s rvice he pro 1 security 1 the President and his advisers apparently have |si y.
