In recent months, as a public service, this news- paper has contributed, gratis, considerable space for Treasury Department advertising in the current bond drive. And rightly so. —when the freedoms we cherigh are abroad—it is the duty and privilege of every citizen to support his government wholehear ively. And the purchase of United Bonds is both a duty and a privilege. additional funds are needed by th defray its enormous emergency expenditu privilege, in that the purchaser makes sound investment as a better than rate.

However, it took a lady to out-| smart the most powerful Republi- can in the Senate — Bob Taft of Ohio. Last fall, Sen. Margarat Chase Smith, Republican of Maine, was bumped off the Senate Investiga- ting Committee. The man who in- jtiated her exit was Segator Mc- Carthy of Wisconsin who wanted revenge for Mrs. Smith’s “Declar- ation of Conscience” in which she urged a fair hearing for those recklessly and falsely smeared by McCarthy. However, Mrs. Smith would not have been dropped from the irvest- jgating committee had it not been for Senator Taft's covert support for McCarthy. It was Taft, rather than McCarthy, who really gave m to the lady senator from Mrs. Smith had little to say at the time. She smiled sweetly, bided her time, and worked at another committee job investigating the Maryland elections. Several times ‘Senator Taft tried to pour cold water on this Mary- probe, claiming that the elec- ,.scandals ‘in Maryland were nsnun compared to what hap- pened in Ohio. The elections com- mittee should take a good look ati Ohio, he said, if it wanted to un- earth real skulduggery. So Mrs. Smith quietly ator Taft at his word. “Senator Taft is quite right,” she sweetly told her Democratic colleagues on the election subcommittee, “we should investigate the Ohio elec- tion.” took Sen- May Embarrass Taft Buch a probe has now been voted, but Taft is simply fit to be tied. Angrily, he told Republican leaders that the investigation had not been cleared with him. Reason for Taft’s ire is that any careful investigation of his recent re-election in Ohio will probably | embarrass him more than the| Democrats, and will show a vicious anti-Catholic whispering campaizn| waged by some of Taft's followers. ing to do with the campaign, it| was just as anti-American as the| unfair fake literature used by the Republicans in Maryland to defeat Tydings. And bringing anti-Catho- licism out in the open is not going to help Taft’s presidential chances. Thanks however to the kick| which Taft gave a lady, the Sen- ator from Ohio is now going to be investigated by Mrs. Smith’s new committee. Note — Another Senate probe which started with a. flourish is now gathering dust thanks to Sen. ‘Guy Gillette of Towa. Gillette’s in- vestigators unearthed some strange evidenge regarding Lt. Gov. Joe Hanley of New York, indicating that he had no debts in Towa, worked a deal with Governor Dewey last year for the| avowed purpose of paying off his debts. For some strange reason Gillette has now blown cold on the New York election prabe.
