POSTOFFICES FOR DIXIE- CRATS? Most interesting test of the no- patronage-punishment for Dixie- crats will come up almost immed- jately in regard to postmasterships fer Congressman Gene Cox of Georgia. Although Chairman McGrath has laid down the rule that Dixiecrats get no postmasters for patronage, and though President snubbed Governors Thurmond and Talmage in the inaugural par- ade some of the Dixiecrats are bet- ting a ten-gallon hat to a one- gallon hat that they will be able the public feed-trough just the same. One of these is “Goober” Gene Cox, the debonair Congressman from Georgia. Several postmasterships are open in Gene'’s district and he is going after them, despite the fact that he was one of the bitterest Dixie- crats of all. Cox is relying on his buddy, Speaker Sam Rayburn, one of Truman’s best friends but with a weak spot for an old crony. Cox has repeatedly defied Sam as a member of the House Rules Com- mittee, but the Speaker never de- serts a friend.

Mendel Rivers the South Carolina Dixiecrat, has used his connections on the House Armed Services committee to “bor- row” a Navy radio and recording equipment—worth several hundred dollars.
