Labor leaders have goaded their fol- | lowers into demands for wage hike after wage hike— and most of the followers have been happy to be goaded. Farmers have held back grain and livestock for still higher prices. White-collar workers have honed for pay increases, professional people have jack- ed up fees. If business has done likewise—and no | doubt some concerns have—it has had plenty of com- pany in its infamy. Let's just guit kidding ourselves and looking for scapegoats.

It is nothing of the kind. No citizen os entitled | to go abroad to oppose the policies and interests of his country, and this, on the record, is the purpose of the conference which Mr. Isacson proposed to attend. The “democratic Greece” in question is the Greece of the who are attempting, with Communist aid, {hrow the present Greek Government. This Government is not perfect, but it does stand as an obstacle against the Russians taking over Greece as they took over Czechoslovakia and it dees offer the hope of progress in the direction of democracy. If Mr. Isacson had been permitted to go to Paris on this errand his presence there, whether he intended this result or not, would have operated against the pur- poses supported by the overwhelming majority of his countrymen and against the findings of a commission of the United Nations and a resolation of the United Nations Assembly.

' DUKE OF WINDSOR The Duke of Windsor, not as young as he once was, but aimost as handsome, lunched with Senator Barkley, Les, Biffle and other Democratic leaders the other . He talked, not about dancing and night clubs as in the old days, nor about bages and kings. Instead, the ccnversation covered the Italian elections, John L. Lew- ig, and British coal production. The Duke described the outcome in Italy as the most encouraging thing that had happened in a long time. Switching to coal, he was quick 'u rebylt Jobin L, Lowi’ ' soon found, was Windsor, on the Canad- ian border. A parade of notorious criticism that British coal opera- tors oppcsed mine mechanization. “There is some mechanization in Great Britain,” he said, “but most of our mines do, not lend them- selves to it because they are deep- er and the coal seams narrower than in the United” States. That makes the use of machinery dif- ficult and more expensive.” The Duchess of Windsor was not at the luncheon. Her husband told Senators that he was looking cial armed with hand-out noses, months.

McDowell predicts that his in- vestigation will shock the country when it becomes public. The State and Justice Departments’ have al- ready asked to see the secret testi- mony of one border official, U. S. Consul John Bankhead at Wind- sor. After word had leaked out that Bankhead had talked to McDowell, he received a bottle of poisoned whisky. Later a mysterious as- sailant fired two shots at him and fled. McDowell has called upon the Justice Department to protect Bankhead's life. Note—As a result of McDowell’s investigation, the United States has closed both borders, except for persons with overwhelming proof of their buSiness in this country. AIR ARGUMENT CONTINUES Secretary of Defense Forrestal got a rough going-over from Sena- tors when he opposed the 70-group air program in a secret session of the Senate Armed Services Com- mittee. “I'm glad to hear that you fel- lows have finally made up your minds, remarked Senator Dick Russell of Georgia when Forrest- al said he and Truman were agreed on 66 air groups. “I've seldom encountered as much inconsistency as the armed services have shown on this subject.
