Among moments during convention meetings that gave pause to thought were those when the Collect of the National Federation of BPWClubs was repeated. ‘Women, individually or in a group, who read or sion to publish it: The Washingion Merrv-Go-Ro_u!ld (Continued from Page One) ning the country. The discussion | started shortly after 8 p.m. Around 10 o'clock, a maid brought in some | ham and cheésé’ Baridwiohes' @and | coffee. The meeting finally broke up at 10:45 p.m. Truman and MacArthur | Probably most newsworthy, the| President described his private talk ' with General MacArthur at Wake Island. This was the man-to-man talk that was never heard by any- one else nor taken down in short- hand. The President quoted MacArthur as vowing never to let the Repub- licans “use” him again. MacArthur complained to the President that the Republicans had pulled him in- to the 1948 campaign and had left him flat. He added that he didn't want to get into ‘“anything like that” again and didn't propose to be used by the Republicans. This, the President said, was one reason he was 50 ‘shocked to learn that MacArthur had written to House Republican leader Joe Mar- tin and, once again, had let him- self be used by the Republicans. The President also told how Mac- Arthur had “talked himself out” of the VFW incident. MacArthur's explanation was that he “wasn't aware” that his statement to the Veterans of Foreign Wars conven= tion was in violation of orders. He also said he “wasn't aware” there would be so much public interest| in his statement. ‘Turning to Kilgore, the President remarked ruefully: “I know you advised me a year ago to get rid of MacArthur. I wish I had taken| your advice. Lord knows, no one| has tried harder than I have to| get along with the man. I even flew 8,000 miles to talk to him personally. I gave him enough rope to hang himself a dozen times. He just wasn’t satisfied. He had to go| further and further against all good military judgment.” In talking about MacArthur, Sen- ators were impressed by the fact that Truman seemed to display no anger or bitterness, chiefly disap- pointment. Truman and FDR The group sat around a long table with Truman in the center on the far side. FDR, Jr, sat at his left and White House aide Dave Stowe at his right. ‘The President started off by solemnly describing the critical times that the nation is up against, and the crucial decisions that must be made. “This is one of the most difficult periods this country has ever faced,” he declared. Then, to FDR, Jr., he added: difficult, perhaps, as some of crises that faced your father.” “You gentlemen are just as re- . As the sponsible for running the nation as| I am,” he said. “I need your help.” And he reminded them that the late Arthur Vandenberg was the last Republican Senator to serve under a Republican President, and that there were only 12 Republican members of the House who had the | my turning | with tory’s most valuabl It is difficult group of persons, slaughter these val pleasure there is i But that hap Womeri, meeting second biennial have left Juneau pletely to waste. pulling a trigger, he destroyed hund thiers is 1o, PuRe out four game ani onvention, listen- Mrs. Cecelia P.

Senator Benton, Congressman Blatnik of Minnesota, and FDR, Jr., emphasized that a sizable group was ready to back the President on Capitol Hill, but that closer liaison with the White House was needed. “We" don’t know what's going to happen ahead of time,” Long of Louisiana broke in. “Take Dean Acheson, for bxample. Some of us may go out on a limb and defend him. Then, maybe a week later, he would be axed.” Truman assured there was no danger of ~Acheson's being axed, that Acheson was going to stay. “History will prove his greatness, and I intend to stand by him,” Truman vowed. “You don't dis- charge a man who is doing a good job just because he is under pol- itical attack.” Review of Russian Policy The President gave a brief review of American Foreign policy from the Yalta, Teheran, Cairo and Mos- cow conferences down to the pres- nt MacArthur debate. He told how e United States went into these conferences hopefully, with no rea- son to distrust Russia’s word. In an-aside to FDR, Jr., Truman com- mented: “Your father attended these conferences and you know from him that what I am saying is right.” Then the President described how Russia had violated her word and flouted the independence of Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Czechoslo- vakia. Out of 37 definite commit- ments, Truman reported, Russia has reneged on 33. “Russia went her way, and we weer forced to go our way,” the President explained sadly. Then he told how the United States had embarked on a policy of keeping world peace, but at the same time stopping aggression. However, he stressed that the way to stop communism and build a healthy world isn’'t by force alone. This led up to his point 4 program to rehabilitate backward nations. Untapped Riches Enthusiastically, Truman pointed out that Ethiopia is 65,000 square miles in area—“a little larger than home state of Missouri”—yet is covered with a deep layer of rich topsoil, as good as the farm lands of Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. With reclamation and irrigation, Truman predicted, Ethiopia could produce enough food to feed 150,- 000,000 people.. “Imagine what this would mean to the starving people of India!™ he said The President also reported that the Euphrates Valley, which used to be the Garden of Eden, could be made into another Garden of Eden modern reclamation And he told about three tremen- dous falls in South America that are 10 feet higher than Niagara, send four times the volume of water plunging over them, and could be developed into great sour- ces for electrical power. Impressed, Senator Benton of Connecticut told how Senator Kerr of Oklahoma had asked a group of seven or eight Senators what Truman’s administration would be numbers. A person who takes more than his share, or worse still, who wantonly slaughters them, is rob- bing the people of Alaska of a priceless resource We hope that Fish and Wildlife agents will nrmqi repeat this Collect, written by Mary Stewart, cannot | pe men who slaughtered those caribou to justice, but be impressed for good.

However, Benton said: “I told them I believed the Truman administration would be most re- membered for the point 4 program, and I think most of \the group agreed.” The President had little to say about his domestic program, though he compained about the Congres- sional cut in appropriations for the Interior Department and reminded his guests that they were Demo- crats and equally responsible for carrying out the Democratic plat- form. “You can see the spot I am in,” the President concluded. “I need your help.” TRUMAN SIGNS BIG CASH BiLL WASHINGTON, June 1 — (P — A $6,442,668,000 supplemental ap- propriation bill was signed yesterday by President Truman.

Is it really proper for a man to offer his seat in a bus or other public conveyance to a woman? A. There certainly is nothing “impreper” about the offier, but. in this workaday world in which women have invaded many of the previous “rights of man,” it is no longer expected for a man to give up his seat in a public conveyance to a woman. Of course, if the woman is elderly, carrying a baby, or is a.good friend of his, then he most certainly should be thoughful enough to offer her a place to sit. H Q.
