IN MY HOUSE OF OOBWEBS
In my house of cobwebs
I have lived too many years,
Too many now for reality.
But it saved so many tears.
In my cobwebs house,
So fragile, yet so safe for me
I lived in dreams with you.
Yet I knew it could never be.
Sometimes tears fell on the webs
But your smile soon drove them
away. .
I fear only the stormy winds of
reality
That will come some day.

Soon storms of truth will come.
And my cobwebs will be blown
aatrew;
And having no foundation left,
I can never build it anew.
So I weave lacy webs of dreams;
Adding to my house each day.
Fearfully waiting your telling me
That you are going away.
When you are gone the webs will
dry
And blow away with time;
And my cobweb house will just a

Remain, but in my heart you

something distinctly worth while has been
accomplished.
There is wide agreement that the new
League of Nations is anything but per-
fect. Delegates admit it does not come
up to expectations of the most pronounced
optimists, but they also assert that it
is not as bad as some pessimists pre-
dicted.
rTHE bolting Republicans apparently were
I influenced by several considerations
which were well set forth by one of them.
Senator Smith (New Jersey), in his speech
announcing his change of position.
These included the belief that economic
co-operation with other nations must go
hand in hand with political co-operation,
the laek of any real injury to any industry
by previous reciprocal trade agreements,
assurances by State Department officials
that they would do nothing to hurt Amer-
ican industry in future negotiations, and
an antipathy to return to the old method
of writing tariff bills on the floors of Con-
gress in tedious detail, under the influence
of trading and log-rolling and with an an-
noying swarm of lobbyists of special inter-
ests hanging around like bar flies.
An analysis of the Senate vote on the
reciprocal tariff also indicates a diminu-
tion of the tariff as a party issue, with
emphasis now rather on it as a local issue.
That is shown, for example, in the way
both Republicans and Democrats from the
western cattle and mining states joined in
opposing athority for further reductions

for them to help you? Maybe that

Democrats were for it. The step backward

couraging.
But there is a brighter side worth,
noting in the courage of the minority in
the Senate which refused to follow the
standpat element led by Senator Taft,
(Ohio). Those courageous Senators were
mostly the newer and younger members
who have shown a progressive viewpoint
on other issues, economic and international.
Perhaps the most hopeful way to look
at it is that these men may be a leaven
that will work effectively in time.
Governor Dewey of New York, the
titular party leader, came out boldly be-
fore Senate consideration of the reciprocal
tariff bill for a broad progam of interna-
tional co-operation, including the reciprocal
tariff. His timely reminder may have had
some influence in the Senate. Certainly
before that no one had counted upon as
many as nine Republicans leaving Senator
Taft.

The FPC granted permission, as
usual, under war emergency provisions,
but a dissenter on the board. Vice
Chairman Leland S. Olds, remarked:
“The Federal Power Commission is

Line of Succession
TYTE hope Congress will act promptly
V V on President Truman’s request for
legislation making the speaker of the
House next in line of succession to the
presidency.
Such a bill was introduced by Rep.
Mike Monroney, shortly after the need
for it was highlighted by Mr. Roose-
velt’s death, which placed Mr. Truman
in the White House and left the vice-
presidency vacant.
We agree with the President that
the present law—running the line of
succession to the secretary of state,
secretary of the treasury and on down
the cabinet—is unsound. For a cabi-
net officer is chosen by one man. Hew

executive should not have the power to
choose his successor. “Insofar as pos-

That jam-up around Buffalo last
winter was awful. The Twentieth
Century, one of the greatest trains
in the world, froze up a couple
of times, lights would fall in some
of the cars’and one night in New
York the Century was more than
an hour late backing into Grand
Central to load up for the run to
Chicago.
The western trains are worse,
however, and eating is a catch-
as-catch-can proposition with pri-
orities for service men, and usual-
ly only two meals a day.
I think one reason why people
thought it didn't mean them, per-
sonally, when Washington asked
them to have a heart for the
service men and their families was
that we got a very bad example
from some prominent individuals
who also thought It didn't mean

tion's whole international co-operation pro-
gram. both political and economic.
The request for authority in the recipro-
cal tariff bill to make an additional 50 per
cent reduction in tariffs looked like the
biggest hurdle. It was surmounted, 47 to
33—a margin of victory
"a-mmaa that was surprising, as
dh encouraging. for
dM"B two other phases of the

diers and sailors—members of the Mili-
tary Police and the Shore Patrol—whose
duty it has been, to help win the war by
chaperoning the journeys of Army and
Navy personnel on the railroads in this
country. Countless civilians have ad-
mired their good-natured efficiency un-
der trying conditions of monotonous
travel in overcrowded trains.
Now the Pullman Co. has given spe-
cial citations to a group of them, assem-
bled in Washington, for their aid to
wartime transportation. One of the
shore patrolmen thus honored," Seaman
Specialist Howard D. Whitescarver, has
ridden 400,000 miles on inland railroads
without seeing either ocean. The most
traveled military policeman, Sgt. Albert
Rose, with 341,000 miles to his credit,
has never had . to arrest a soldier for
violence—a record that speaks well for
the service to which Sergeant Rose be-
longs and for the conduct of Army men
in general.
U. 8. IN DANGER
FROM COMMUNISM
Editor, The Press:
THE DOCTRINE of Commun-
ism is sweeping the greater part
of Europe and has taken root
here in America under the dis-
guise of “liberalism." It is def
structive to our republican form
of government, and, if not curb-
ed in time, will eventually destroy
the principles of democracy.

flowing into the coal region will hurt
both coal and gas industries.
The 60,000,000 cubic feet daily is to
go into the Appalachian coal-industrial
region via West Virginia. Already 204
million cubic feet daily move through
the Tennessee line.
Injury to coal will be only tempor-
ary, more than 99 per cent of the na-
tion'* reserves of energy being of that
material.
Injury to Texas gas will be both
lasting and more serious. The permit
pokes another hole through which our
reserves are to be drained, and it tends
eventually to reduce usage by keeping
factories away from Texas. It also
keeps away more jobs, more residents,
more purchasing power and the reason
for other factories—a greater consumer
market.
In other words, the FPC's permit
jabbed Texas’ future two ways—both
unpleasant and unnecessary.

of offices just around the corner

out to call on them.
And the heat is awful there
now and the locals who borne

taken such a beating from dear
old friends whom they hardly
know back in the old home-town

when they answer the phone,
“Yes, this is Sassafras 3709 but

a longing that was aroused back
in Minnesota when I hung around

of their tours hither and yon

there to rinse out a shirt and
catch a little sleep in the bushes

CAN FRANCISCO.—The arrival of Presi-
3 dent Truman on the West Coast last
night and plans for his visit here day after
tomorrow, mark the beginning of the end
of the first United Nations Conference.
Washington isn't
Okinawa
DRESIDENT TRUMAN has made two
L urgent requests about which Con-
gress, bent on starting a vacation by
mid-July, seems determined to do noth-
ing until fall, if then.
Well, hot and uncomfortable as
Washington is in summer, it isn't as
bad as Okinawa. Or as a good many
other places where weary Americans
are staying to finish important jobs.
Mr. Truman's two requests are impor-
tant.
One is for authority to reorganize
Government agencies and make them
“more businesslike and efficient.” In
1939 President Roosevelt was given
such authority, limited to two year*
with a number of agencies exempted.
Mr. Truman has asked for no time
limit and no exemptions, and some con-
gressmen are unwilling to go that far.
We’re inclined to think them unduly
cautious. Mr. Truman insists that
Congress reserve the right to veto any
reorganization order, which seems an
adequate safeguard. However, he has
shown himself reasonable about many
things. If the congressmen have a good
case for limiting the duration and
scope of reorganization authority, let
them determine the restriction and pass
•a law quickly.
The President now has emergency
power to order reorganizations for more
effective prosecution of the war, but it
will lapse six months after peace re-
turns and all changes made under it
will be cancelled. It is essential that a
post-war government . reorganization
plan shall be ready to go into effect
promptly, and we believe Mr. Truman's
intent is to achieve real improvements
and economies.
His other request—for increased uB
employment compensation to war work-
ers who lose their present jobs in the
reconversion period — involves some
complex problems. But we think Con-
gress should consider it, also, before
make a patri-
otic virtue of
this decision,
the going is
just too tough
nowadays.
I may have
to take a couple
of hops to
W a s h i ngton,
but no fair per-
son would call
that, run a
pleasure trip
because the
journey itself is
a monotonous
and the West Coast, but I am
cured and, in fact, my trouble
nowadays is not in keeping off
the cars but in getting myself
going when I know I ought to go
somewhere and see some people,
personally, about something.
The railroad men have done a
wonderful job pushing the traffic
along in this war, and I have to
admire their courage in sticking
to the road because some of the
old conductors have told me that
the equipment is just hanging to-
gether and some of the new talent
simply can’t appreciate the im-
portance of the rules of safety.
Up to now not many of our
people have taken seriously the ex-
hortations from Washington to
stay off the railroads and give
the service men and, for that mat-
ter, the country, a break. Or,
anyway, those who did take them
seriously have been heavily out-
numbered by the thousands who
didn't. A great many of these
civilian passengers have been rel-
atives pf service men going to
visit them in camp or going to
the seaboard in the hope of see-
ing them off or greeting them on
their return. Some of the traffic
to the coastal areas has consisted
of relatives hurrying to the hos-
pitals.
There has been no analysis of
the reasons for civilian travel,
however, because our people are
not the kind to give you a polite
answer if you step up, flashing a
badge, and ask them why they
are going somewhere. Neverthe-
less, the railroad men hear
enough to be sure that a lot of
their business, which they distinct-
ly do not want, has been idle and
unnecessary jaunting by people
who just want to go somewhere.

Editor, The Press:
RUSSIA has been called the
graveyard of prophets’ reputa-
tions. My own precious little
reputation as a prophet lies bur-
ied there. It was already a
nervous wreck from Mussolinf’s
boisterous collapse, and it expir-
ed with the first blast of Russian
guns against the Germans.
Paraphras ing the political
O’Danlel, I would say that we
need a thorough housecleaning
among the professional prophets.
Those boys should be told that
they can't jump the gun on the
prophets of old and gain renown
by foretelling the history of the
world from year to year.
Some are telling us that Rus-
sian Communism is going to
sweep the world. Fifteen years
ago the same prophets were tell-
ing us the same thing about
Fascism, and Mussolini was being
carefully examined concerning his
eligibility as the beast of proph-
ecy. The fasces and the Roman
god of commerce on our Ameri-
can dime were pointed' out as
proof that Rome was again about
to rule the world.
Later, Franklin Roosevelt be-
gan to loom large on the horizon
in this desert land of depression.
Some said he was the beast of
prophecy, and when the blue eagle
spread its wings from east to
west they nudged each other and
said “See! There's the mark of
the beast, now!" But the ill-fated
bird died suddenly, with its T-
model timing gear still clutched
in its claws, and Frank laid it
aside.
What does it profit to predict
pandemonium coming out of Rus-
sia? It may not come, so would
it not be better to strive, in good
faith, for world peace? Why rant
and rave about the coming doom
whose fateful hour no man can
know? Why not give the peo-
ple the simple gospel that will
save them no matter what hap-
pens or when?

The World Security
Charter, to all intents
and purposes, has been
completed. All that
remains are a few fin-
ishing touches. No fur-
ther crises are expect-
ed. As this was writ-
rpHE delegates say for it: “At least
1 it's a start.” And to those who
take the dark view, there is the ques-
tion: “Well, what would you suggest
as an alternative?” To that, no one
seems to have a constructive answer.
The only alternative would seem to be
a world divided against itself.
There is still, of courts, considerable
dissatisfaction over ths veto powers of
the Big Five; over the difficulties raised
against future amendments; and so on.
The answer to these and similar objec-
tions is that 50 different nations had to
be reasonably satisfied with the charter
and agreement compromises. It was that
or no new League of Nations, no Big Five
unity and not much chance of a lasting
peace.
A shift in Republican ranks there con-
tributed to the victory. Nine Republicans
voted for the 50' per cent reduction au-
thority sought by the Administration. They
more than offset the negative votes of
eight Democrats from the west and New
England.
This Republican support was larger
than Administration leaders had counted
on. At the outset they had figured on
only four or five, and they lost fewer
Democrats .from the cattle and mining
states than they had expected.

Free Press, Russian
And American Style
A N intereating illustration of the dif-
XX ference between the American and
Russian definitions of a “free press"
is found in a dispatch to Izvestia by
Evgeny Zhukov, one of its reporter*
covering the San Francisco Conference.
Mr. Zhukov pictures American and
British reporters as a gossip-monger-
ing, .sensation-hunting, hard-drinking,
frresponsible lot, and blames their
sorry plight on the commercialism of
the privately-owned press.
“A newspaperman, trembling for
his position, cannot always write what
he thinks," says the Russian reporter.
“If his view* do not correspond to those
of his publishers and editors his dis-
patches remain unpublished.”
Then he makes note of the excep-
tion in the case of “well known” writers,
• who are paid for writing pieces with
which the publishers and editors don't
agree. And he finds two opinions on
the same subject just as distressing as
one.
Probably Mr. Zhukov finds noth-
ing incongruous in the fact that if his
convictions and those of Izvesti’s pub-
lishers and editors did not coincide
with the convictions of the Kremlin,
his dispatches would also remain un-
published. And doubtless it puzzles
him that Americans are distressed at
the official Russian attitude which
rules that thefe is only one side to
every question.
POLIO VIRUS MAY ENTER
THROUGH TOOTH CAVITIES
Cavities in the teeth which ex-
pose the tooth pulp may be one
route by which the Infantile par-
alysis virus enters the body, Dr.
Myron S. Aisenberg and Dr.
Thomas C. Grubb, of the Univer-
sity of Maryland School of Den-
tistry, report in the Journal of
the American Dental Association.
They warn, at the same time
against having teeth pulled “too
near” the infantile paralysis sea-
son. They report six cases in
which the disease started five to
10 days after having teeth pulled.
The pulp of a tooth. the scien-
tists point out, is richly supplied
with nerves arising from the fifth
cranial nerve. It is reasonable to
believe that the polio virus could
travel this route to the brain and
spinal cord.
Our best judgment is that we can
defeat Japan quickly and completely
with an army which, a year from now,
will be 6,968,000.—Adjt.-Gen. James A.
Ulio, Army Personnel Director.
The biggest amphibious operations
of the war are yet to come. When-
ever we undertake them, in whatever
direction we go, we can expect the bit-
terest of opposition..—Gen. Alexander
A. Vandergrift, Commandant, U. S.
Marine Corps.
TF the Big Three can't work together,
I realists agree, then the whole thing
is hopeless. So it all boils down to
whether the world will accept an admit-
tedly imperfect organisation with a chance
to improve on it as time goes by, or
split up into groups and coalitions which
would quickly develop into armed camps.
There are rumors of a new “battalion
of death" forming in the Senate to head
off ratification of the charter. These
rumors are thoroughly discounted in in-
formed circles here. The present situa-
tion, it is pointed out, is far different
from what it was when, in 1919, Senators
Lodge, Johnson, Borah, Reed and others
fought to the death ratification of the
covenant of the old league.
The prospect for prompt, but not hasty,
passage of the charter is now said to be
bright — barring, of course, some totally
unexpected overturn of the situation
abroad. Almost certainly, it is believed,
the Senate will allow ample time for
full examination and discussion of the
work done in San Francisco. But no one
expects any filibustering or stalling mere-
ly for the sake of delay.
Members of the American delegation
agree that a Senatorial debate might
serve to inform public opinion concerning
the new world organization’s good points
and bad. Even here there are conflicting
interpretations of some of its aims. 'A
full dress discussion on the floor of the
Senate, with delegates Senators Connally
and Vandenberg there to answer questions
and report on the conference, should be
most constructive.

bor organizations - and other
groups. ’ The New Deal has be-
come tinted with Communist agi-
tators and their collectivist ideol-
ogiea. France, Italy and several
of the Balkan nations already are

The U. S. and England have
been too lenient In their diplo-
matic relatione with Soviet Rus-
sia. They should be less com-
promising.
We saw the effects of National
Socialism in Germany under its
diabolic rule of terrorism. It al-
moat destroyed our civilization.
And there is little practical dif-
ference between Communism and
