Undoubtedly that is what Mr. Wallace is angling for. He would like to dignify his cheap assault on the bipartisan foreign policy that is taking shape in Washington by crossing swords with the President Numerous Republicans on Capitol Hill would also be delighted to see such an oven fight between the Demo- cratic President and a former stalwart in the Demo- cratic Party. But the effect would be a useless dis- sipation of energy and a diversion of interest from the real issue bef Congress and the country Effective replies to Mr. Wallace have already come from hundreds of different sources. The con- sensus seams to be that he hes made himself foolish v misrepresenting the policy of his own country in/ eches delivered in other lands. This loss of statutre | is a peculiarly fitting penalty for indiscretion in the exercise of the right of freedom of speech. For any man with political ambitions it is a devastating blow. But, aside from this fact, the suggestions now being made that Mr. Wallace's passport should be revoked and that he should be investigated by the House Un-j American Activities Committee are so utterly out of | keeping with our way of life as to be ridiculous. Democracy is not to be redeemed by abandoning its | principles The best answer that Congress can give to Mr. Wallace is a resounding bipartisan vote in favor of the President’s program of aiding Greece and Turkey | to maintain their independence. The idea that Mr. Wallace's petulant and muddled speeches must be answered from the White House before Republican | | Senators will support what they regard as a sound | and essential international policy is only a political aberration that cannot stand the test of analysis. The only sound reason for supporting the Truman Dactrine | is that it is right—that it offers a positive and feasible method by which democracy can protect itself against expanding totalitarianism. All the epithets and wise- cracks that Mr. Wallace can utter will not change this fact. So long as he can play upon the novelty of bombarding the foreign policy of his country from | a foreign shore doubtless he will have some listeners | but it will be the vote of Congress that will be heard | in Athens, Ankara, Moscow and every other cap in the world. Congress thus has it wholly within its| | mittee which upheld Stefan THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE —JUNEAU, ALASKA = — 7 Wil Iy . 9 . ° May Sabin o e Mary Frances Thibodeau e . evieve White LA . cus Russell L b4 Hibbard . . et Ramsaur 0! .
