Stranger From Mars Focuses /
Eye on Confusing Congress |
ye on Confusing Congress ,
3 BY PETER EDSON I
: NEA Washington Correspondeént ;
WASHINGTON-—~“There are a lot of things
around here that I don’t understand,” said’the Man
from Mars, looking up from his paper.
“Do tell,” replied the Man Who Knew All the
Answers. “Pray be a little more specific. Let me
enlighten you.”
“I thought that because your Congress passed a
law to set up a national radar screen network, it
was all-out for national defense,” began the Man
from Mars.
“It is,” said the Man Who Knew Everything, with
assurance,
{ “Then why didn’t they raise the pay of the armed
services?”
| “That was for reasons of economy,” said the
Know It All
“Is that why the House just passed this new
Rankin $65,000,000,000 veterans’ benefit bill?” asked
the Man from Mars.
“Your question is so ridiculous it doesn’t merit an
answer,” said the Authority. “Haven’t you noticed
how worried Congress is about allowing the budget
to get out of balance?”
“The senators didn’t seem very worried about
it when they were restoring House cuts on that
‘pork barrel” rivers and harbors bill,” observed the
Man from Mars. .
“That,” said the Expert, “is different.” S
PLUS TIME ECONOMY
“It sure is,” said the Man from Mars. “But you
have so many things different. Your Senator
Tydings think congressional salaries should be cut
5 per cent to save money. Your Senator Bridges,
who is a great advocate of economy, says that isn’t
necessary. And your Senator Pepper seems to think
the Congress should buy a lot of autos and set up
a motor pool to give congressmen free rides.”
“That last,” said the Big Answer Man, “is to save
time.”
“QOh, is time important around here?” asked the
Man from Mars in amazement. “The way they spent
three weeks filibustering that proposed change in
Senate rules, and the way they're going to spend
three weeks or more investigating your Atomic
Energy Commission. I thought they had all the time
in the world.”
“Congress must adjourn by August,” replied the
Information Specialist with finality.
“Is that why they're in such a hurry to do nothing
about ratifying the North Atlantic Pact and pro
viding for foreign military assistance?” queried the
Man from Mars. “I thought you were concerned
about the threat of international communism.”
“We are.” responded the Wise Man. “Just look at
the way some of the congressmen want to give more
aid to China to fight Commies.”
. “And look how the Senate is planning to cut the
Voice of America appropriation and how the House
cut next year’s funds for the Marshall Plan.”
STRANGER CATCHES ON
. For a complete stranger, the Man from. Mars
seemed to be catching on fast. The Man Who Was
Supposed to Know All the Answers was squirming
a bit uneasily in his seat. “Next year,” he explained,
“Congress will put all its money bills into one and
so end what now may seem to you a little confus
ing.”
“But they've been supposed to do that ever since
your Congressional Reorganization Act was passed
in 1946,” exclaimed the Martian.
“Was there anything else you wished to consult
me about?” asked the Source of All Wisdom.
“I've just begun,” said the Man from Mars. “Con
gressmen let the taxpayers maintain a health clinic
for themselves and their families, yet a majority
of them seem opposed to such service for the voters.
Congressmen complain there are too many govern
ment employes, yet they haven’t so far been able
to agree on a bill that would let the President re
organize the government and cut down no the nunr
berber of employes to save money.
“And another thing,” said the Man from Mars
after a deep breath. “Your Joint Congressional
Committee on Atomic Energy is criticizing your
Atomic Energy Commission Chairman David —
Lilienthal because too many of his employes have
been quitting. I looked up the record on this one.
I find that the original Atomic Energy Act gave
the commissioners five-year terms. In May, 1948,
Congress cut this down to two-year terms. How did
that contribtue to stability of employemnt at the
top levels of the commission? How could any em
ploye feel that he was taking a job with any se
curity if he knew that the bosses themselves might
be on the job for only two years?”
“I fear,” ssaid the Man Who. Knew Everything,
“that you are a subversive character. I think I shali
report you for a loyaity investigation. I believe You
mhoulrl be deported, back to Mars.”

~ The State Hospital |
We do not know who is in the right in the con
troversy now in progress at the State Hospital in
Milledgeville,
.There are several investigating groups at work
already trying to dig up the facts.
There are; of course, some who jump into the
controversy for the purpose of mraking political
capital out of it. ’
.At this, time, however, it would 'be difficult for
ahyone not thoroughly conversant with the facts
to pass judgment the State Welfare Director and
hijs appointee, Mr. Dechman, vigorously sup
perted by Governor Herman Talmadge, or the
thirteen dismissed doctors have the right on their
side.
Time and further investigation into the situa
tion may reveal the truth o the citizens of the
state.
There is one good result which we believe will
come out of the State Hospital controversy and
that is a greater interest in the hospital and the
welfare of its patients on the part of the people.
The Milledgeville Hospital is more than one
hundred years old. Up to the time of the Rivers
administrations it fared badly at the hands of the
state government.
During the Rivers administrations several mod
ern dormitories were erected at the hospital and
other improvements were made,
During the Arnall and Thompson administra
tions improvements were made also and it is re
ported improvements have been made during the
present state administration. [
But even with all the progress that has been
made at the hospital during the last ten or twelvel
years, it is still far behind, according to numerous |
investigating groups that have looked it over.
In fact, the State Hospital actually is a discredit
to the citizens of Georgia.
Somehow, out of the present heated contro
versy we cannot help believing will come such a
strong interest on the part of the people in their
hospitial for the mentally ill that it may yet be
developed into one of the finest in the nation.
.
Memories Of Jackef Of Gray
It is being suggested by some newspapers that
the observance of Confederate Memorial Day be
abandoned and that all exercises in nremory of
our heroic dead be held on May 30th, the national
day of observance., There is no good reason for
abolishing the distinctive Confederate Memorial
Day. Such a procedure would be the essence of
nonsense,
The observance of Confederate Memorial Day
on April 26th each yeax: does not in the least les
sen the loyalty of Southerners to the federal un
ion. The jacket,of gray is simply a beloved mem
ory. The Stars and Bars will never be unfurled in
battle again. But the love and afiection that will‘
always be in Southern hearts for the flag under
which our ancestors fought in the War Between
the States add to the deep affection all real Am-‘
ericans in this part of the Union will be increased
by every action of devotion on each succeedingi
Confederate Memorial Day. |
The brave deeds of Southern boys in the Span
ish-American War attests their devotion to the
Stars and Stripes of the reunited sections, that
was under voluntary enlistment and not through
order of the federal government. On every battle
field in World War I and World War II the blood
of Southern boys attested their love and loyalty.
“In a country’s history, her dead are immortal.”
Thus the Stars and Bars of the Southern Confed
eracy are immortal and the jacket of Gray is am
immortal mefmory. We honor the nremories of our
heroes of the American Revolution, the Mexican
War, the Spanish-American War, World War 1
and World War II on each recurring May 30th.
That is as it should be, but there is no sound and
sensible reason why a special day should not be
set aside to pay tribute to the memories of those
who wore the jacket of Gray.
It's not a cold war. It’s a damn hot one. To call
it by any other name is a misnomer. — Major-
General William J. Donovan, wartime head of
Office of Strategic Services. ‘
Happiness is never my aim. Like Einstein, I am
not happy and do not want to be happy. I have
neither time nor taste for such comas.—Bernard
Spaw.
1 was not mad at anybody. I just thought we
needed a change. Always takes a new set of ras
cals a while longer to learn the combination to
the safe.—Jesse Jones, former New Deal Secretary
of Commerce, explaining his support of Republi
cans in last November's eleltions.
Isn’t there somebody high in government places
who is going to say we must cut government
spending? For goodness sake, let's get some com
mon sense in government. — Rep. Robert F. Rich
(R) of Pennsylvania.
There are no . . . passive members of the Com=
mmunist Party.—Sidney Heck, New Vork Univer
sity faculty member, = . g .. isige
