Joe was the mastermind behind the almost solid block of Republican votes against the tax bill. His offi- cial excuse was: His reason: “The longer pass- more it would help the Republic- § ans.” from the housetops, but what they really wanted was a tax delay until next year, thus putting the Demo- grats in the embarrassing position of passing an unpopular tax bill in an election year—something the party in power traditionally tries to avoid. SOUTHERN DEMO CHAIRMAN? There's a lot of talk among De- mocrats about getting away from he precedent followed under Roose- velt of picking a big-city Irish atholic as chairman of the Demo- atic Ngtional Committee. No re- ious prejudice is mixed up in this rather geography. jouthern Democrats point out t no southernor has been chair- n of the national committee ice Cordell Hull in 1920. They feel aat it’'s now vital to weld the party together and woo rebellious Dixie- ¢rats back into the fold. ¢ This is one reason why able Wil- /ém Wyatt, ex-mayor of Louisville, , is being pushed for the Demo- cratic chairmanship. Westerners also point out that no one from their section of the country has led the Democratic National Committee in a long time; so are boosting ex-Congressman John Carroll, one of the ablest men recently to serve in Congress. An- ather westerner under considera- tion is George Killion of San Fran- Blgsco, former Democratic treasurer, under whom there were no scandals. Roosevelt's reason for putting big- city Irishmen at the helm of the party was partly because he con- sidered them shrewd politicians, artly in order to swing the big-city vote which is predominantly Cath- plic. Thus, Jim Farley was followed by Ed Flynn of the Bronx; Flynn was followed by Frank Walker of [Scranton, Pa., and New York; then [Bob Hannegan of St. Louis; who was replaced by executive Director Gael Sullivan of Chicago and How- ard McGrath of Providence, R. I, vho were succeeded by Bill Boyle of ansas City—all from big-city areas.

WHITE HOUSE CLEANUP - “Less government spending rathes thanshigher taxes.” age of a tax bill was delayed, the Republicans are not shouting it plan to shake up the White House staff as well as the Democratic National Committee. “I think we need some new faces and new ideas in the White House,” he said. “I'm just getting the same old thoughts back again.” He also added another interesting angle. “Whoever gets the nomination next year,” he said, “shouldn’t be handicapped by scandals at the Democratic National Committee that reach into the W hite House, even if the publicity is exaggerated by _the newspapers.” The President remarked that he had decided Democratic Chairman Bill Boyle should resign some weeks ago, though Boyle’s friends had pleaded with him against the move. Finally, he called Boyle over and said in effect: “I know you've been complaining about your health. Be- fore’ we get into the campaign pre- liminaries, you'd better get a phys- ical checkup.” Boyle took the hint. TRUMAN LISTENED Prior to this occurred an unpub- licized but stormy session at the White House between Boyle and Truman's former counsel, Clark Clifford. For several months Clifford, now a private attorney, had been urg- ing the President to clean up at the Democratic National Commit- tee. Its top executives, Clifford told his old chief, were squandering| \\hundreds of thousands of dollars of precious campaign funds and achieving almost no results. They had not even formed a research staff to dig up information essential for campaign speeches and Congres- sional debates. “You've got to get rid of these peanut operators,” Clif- ford said in one session with the President. Clifford’s constant criticism fin-| ally culminated in an evening ses- sion at Blair House when Truman invited both Clifford and Boyle in to talk the whole matter out. Cliiford repeated to Boyle his claims that the National Committee was poorly managed and achieving little. Boyle demurred, puf up a hot defense. Truman listened. Clifford 8ot caustic. Boyle got bitter. Fin- ally the President broke up the ar- student of Canadian affairs and all-around pundit, “As far as Canadians trying to avoid American influ- ence is concerned—well they just can't.” Naturally they can’t, any more than we can avoid | Canadian influence. not known that either nation was trying to avoid the influence of the other. to work more and more closely together, with each nation according full consideration to the other in the We do not happen to be Canadian, but if we were we would not appreciate the patronizing attitude of Richard Neuberger and we ate willing to go on record attitude of the United States.

ALASKA BARGAIN DAY Edward Keithahn was not being facetious when Alaska Day address last Thursday that, since Alaska’s price of $7,200,000 was the biggest bargain in the world, Alaska Day should be celebrated as Alaska Bargain Day with Juneau merchants cooperating with Thanksgiving Day, would be an excellent time of the year for promotion by merchants throughout the city of a super special bargain day that would attract Fairbanks has city-wide “bed rock” bargain days and bring into Fairbanks, from the surrounding area, people searching for bargains at “bed rock” prices.

There are rainy areas—in a few cases there is snow mixed with the |rain—in parts of Montana and northern Minnesota. But in the main good football weather is in prospect. The Federal Mediation Service has entered the New York dock dispute. The strikers, unhappy about a recent contract, want negotia- tions reopened. Their wildcat strike is spreading and soon may have the New York harbor shut down tight. Stalin has sent his best wishes and given his moral support to the North Korean regime. This is the third anniversary of diplomatic re- lations between Moscow and Pyong- yang. Chester Bowles arrived today in New Delhi to assume his new role as U. S. Ambassador to India. In an airport interview, Bowles told newsmen he would do his utmost to clear up all misunderstandings between the two countries. EROM ILLINOIS J. W. Johnson, of Rockton, Il is a guest at the Baranof.
