President Truman was praised by Republicans as well as Democrats for asking for Wallace’s resignation. ; One Democra: stated that Wallace should have been asked \to resign “months azo.” The President explained that Wallace’s expressed | views about the foreign policy of this country was funda- i mentally in conflict with that of the Department of State. | He added that he supported Secretary of State James F. Byrnes’ stand 100 per cent. ! Truman asserted that he felt a vast majority of the American public supports Byrnes in the policy he is pur- | suing in the foreign relations of the United States, j He explained that, so that no incident similar to that which occurred when Wallace made his Madison Square Garden speech and when he released a letter he | had‘ sent to the President would occur again, hereafter every member of the executive branch of the government, | when he had anything to say about this country’s foreign | policy, he must clear it through the Department of State | before releasing it to the public. The President said he deeply regretted his action im asking Wallace to resign, but added that, as a private | citizen, Wallace would now be in a position to express 'his views fully on this country’s foreign or any i President Truman, when he remarked that he sup- | ported Byrnes 100 per cent in his foreign policy, | confiden‘:ially when he spcke about the great public sup- port he felt was accorded Byrnes during the conference | of the 21 nations in Paris when he, time and again, refused to act in accordance with the views expressed by Fore’ | Commissar ‘Molotov of Russia. | “Byrnes’ “get tough” policy was called into play by | Molotov's “get tough” policy, when he insisted on every- thing being done the Russian way. Time and again By , | as well as the delega’e from Australia, has taken Molo- tov to task for trying to run the conference. | Wallace also had a tilt with the late President Reose- | velt. That was when Wallace, as head of the Board of | Economic Welfare early in the recent war, had the task of seeing 'hat America got from abroad war materials it didn’t have at home. His board drafted the programs but the Reconstrue- ‘tion Finance Corporation, under Secre’ary of Commerce | Jesse Jones, controlled the money to carry them out. Mr. | Wallace and Mr. Jones didn’t get along. REPRIMAND FROM PRESIDENT The Vice-Presider’, in a public statement, the Commerce Secretary of “obstructionist tactics” touched off a feud that wound up with the President pub- licly reprimanding both officials. Mr. Wallace was drop- ped from his Economic Welfare: post and the bureau was placed under a new agency. pee arora CLUB 116 FITZPATRICK & GREENE STS. Opposite Western Union Opens at 6 P.M.
