BOXING THE NO-MAN So while Hannegan has mended political fences, a bevy of Mis- souri “Yes-men” have moved into the palace and practically cut Han- negan, the big no-man, off from policy decisions.

He and Hanne: main close friends.

SECRETARY OF WAR Most controv al ence in months was Secretary of War quoted as saying he didn't know that overseas soldiers no longer were accumulating points. This col- umnist has now received the v batim report of that conference as recorded by the G.I. newsmen at- tending it. The pertinent part read: Secretary Patterson: “The War Department will discard the point system when it has served its pur- pose. After all, T would rather re- 2 man who has had long s an one who has been in | vice only a short time.

CAPITAL CHAFF Congress receives many strange appeals for help, but the oddest and most far-distant this session came to Representative Adolph Sa- bath of Illinois from a lawyer in Travancore, India. The Indian wanted a Government grant of $10,000 so he and his wife could “spend several years studying in the United States”. . .. Top State Department officials are mystified at just what President Truman meant when he talked about the “conditional” recognition of Yugo- clavia. When one State Department official was asked what ‘“condi- tional recognition” meant, he re- plied: “If you find out, I wish you would tell me and the Sceretary of State. We would both like to know.” Actually, diplomats say there was nothing conditional about the recognition of Yugoslavia. Negotiations for the proposed pn»l- war loan to Russia will open in about 30 days, when State Depart- ment officials sit down with the Russians to add up the final Rus- sian Lend-Lease figures.
