This is the part of a 1951 Tax Calendar prepared by the Seattle Chamber of Commerce to include Wash- ington and Alaska. This Alaska section was copied and circulated in the Territory by C. M.

Looking back on what has hap- pened since then, I can see that he was right. { Vandenberg's Cooperation Vandenberg went on to say, in| our telephone conversation, that‘ when he was actively in the Sen- ate, there were constant conferences and genuine teamwork between the State Department and his Foreign | Relations Committee. As a result of this teamwork, the North Atlantic pact had been written and rewritten | about seven times. “It really was a bipartisan foreign policy then,” he said. “But there| doesn’t seem to be the same rela- tionship now between the State De- partment and the Hill” Part of this, I suspect, was due to the fact that Vandenberg him-| self was no longer in harness.

Vandenberg and McCormick History will attribute many great| things to Arthur Vandenberg—in-| cluding passage of the Marshall plan and the North Atlantic pact. But perhaps Vandenberg’s greatest achievement was the ability to change his mind. Some statesmen can't do that. They get rigid and immobile. Vandenberg once told me how, during the 1936 Republican conven- tion in Cleveland, Col. McCormick | battle daily in the public V-E Day, he saw that atomic weap- ons, long-range rockets and big bombers had ended the traditional isolation of the United States. Ab- ruptly, he deserted the Chicago Tribune bandwagon. The Tribune, in turn, never forgave him. To the very end, its most scathing cartoons were directed at Arthur Vanden- berg, the turncoat. In civilian life, the American people do not usually fete their{ political heroes. The politician is so close to the people that they see_ all his imperfections. He has to arena where he gets soiled by the mud and invective of political combat. His statements cannot be censored; the photographers snap him they will. But though no pomp or circum- stance honored the closing days of his life, Arthur Vandenberg de- serves all the tributes the Ameri- can people can give him. He will |go down as one of the great poli- did not fire, but recently promoted, behind the closed doors of the He is Maj. Gen.

Graham admitted the approach from General Vaughan, denied he had known/| Vaughan previously, but said he had spent considerable time in Missouri. It was Senator Cain who asked Graham about his' grain specula- ting. However, Graham not only reported he had stopped specula- ting but claimed he was living'on his military salary. Democratic Senators Russell of Georgia and Johnson of Texas came to Graham’s defense, point- ing out that the Senators had an | admiral (Dr. Geo Calver) on luty full time to watch out for heir health. Johnson also started identifying he ribbons on Graham’s chest, ringing out his war record as a| ield surgeon.
