Since the winds blow steadily from Germany into Russia, it would be a simple matter' to float larger balloons into Russia itself carrying propaganda mess- ages, soap, tea, or even small radio Bets. Behipd Koraen Lines—U. S. in- !elhgejce reports from inside North Korea fhave it that North Koreans were fromised 1,300 tanks by Mar- shal tikov and 400 airplanes—to be deBvered by June 1.

Already they are bidding for delpg'm‘s at the 1952 GOP' Presidential conven- tion. ‘In order to corral New York's big- fistful of délegatés, Taft people sent $7,000 to Albany to help thej pre-convention fight of Lt. Gov. Joe Hanley to become governor. They figure Joe will remember their generosity two years later . ., . Incidentally, Democratic Governor Lausche of Ohio, who came out for Taft, now says privately that his man is slipping . . . Actually, the Ohio election may depend on a contested ruling of the Ohio At- torney General that illiterate voters are entitled to aid in marking their ballots. Taft's campaign manager, Willis B. Gradison, is worried—be- cause thousands of negroes who moved from the south during the wa ears will probably vote against Taft in view of his Dixlecrat flirta- tion, Will There Be Rationing?—The battle over controls really boils down to this: The Republicans don't want Truman to get the power to fix prices unless he also fixes wages. The White House, in Air Crash Friends—Two Los An-:turn, isn't actually averse to having geles lawyers, en ington’ to argue opposite sides of a rent case, happened to board the same ill-fated plane—the one whose propeller tore loose and ripped through the fuselage near Denver. ‘When ' the accident occurred, two lawyers, G. B. Baumen, repre- senting the landlords, and Alex Schullman, representing the ten- anw—were so sure that they were plungipg to deaths that they forgot their differences, dramatically shook | hands: and said good-bye forever.! When jthe plane made a safe land- ' ing, hpwever, they hurried on to Washi’lgwn to continue the legal fight. - ‘Wiré-Tapping—Here’s part of the closed: testimony by Lieut.

It might even save Truman a lot of political headaches. But Tru- man advisers are emphatically and categorically opposed to being re- quired by law to control all prices . Most prices won't need con- trolling for some time, they argue, and there is no use regulating pen- cils at the same time you regulate strategic copper and steel 7 Furthermore, it's almost impossible to control prices without rationing. And to put across rationing re- quires a tremendous bureaucracy, thousands of clerks, and three months time to print ration cou- pons. GOP TACTICS—GOP strategy to back war controls was cooked 'up a closed-door meeting in the office of Indiana’s Charlie Halleck. Believe it or not but the plan was unfolded by Rep. Michigan, the man who led the fight to kill price controls in the 79th Congress . . . Tip-off on the reasons behind Republican strategy may be found in the National Asso- ciation of Manufacturers news let- ter, as follow: circles thought it would be well to support the Baruch plan to embar- rass the administration. The Re- publicans would have voted for the plan and expected the administra- tion to defeat it. Then, if prices had gone up, the Republicans could point to the fact tnmat they had advocated the Baruch plan.” Sewing machines for Tent at the ‘White Sewing Machine Center Jesse Wolcott of | “Some Republican | 129 DEPART THIS IMORN ON BARANOF; 'NORIHBOUND MON.
