50 Senate Race Shunned By
.
Three Midwestern Governors
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Service Correspondent
COLUMBUS, Ohio.—(NEA)—lt is a curious po
litical fact that in this off-year election the Demo
crats are not putting forward their best possible
candidates in the three key midwestern states of
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
The three best men in these states are their gov
ernors—TFrank J. Lausche of Ohio, Henry F. Shrick
er of Indiana, and Adlai E. Stevenson of Illinois.
Their senatorial candidates in these states are
Auditor Joseph T. Fel'guion in Ohio, Senator Scott
I,ucas in Illinois, and Ex-Assistant Attorney Gen
¢ral Alex Campbell in Illinois.
The three Republicans these Democrats will have
+4 beat are the incumbent Senators Robert A. Taft
of Ohio and Homer Capehart of Indiana, former
I'op. Dirksen of Illinois. All three are formidable
ouposition for entirely different reasons: because of
varying personalities, backgrounds and political sit
uations.
Lausche, Schricker and Stevenson have built up
amazing records, They may not yet be presidential
material, They are definitely good vice-presidential
material, and first-class senatorial material.
Even Republicans in the three states adnrit that
their governors have been good administrators.
They are honest. They have big popular followings.
They have not played machine politics in their ap
pointments, but have obviously tried to get the best
man for the job, regardless of his party affiliations.
They are independent, Their principal concern
seems to have beena sincere effort to give the tax
payers of their states decent government. And if
there is one place where the American form of
government seems to bog down in corruption and
plain everyday inefficiency, it is at the state level.
WHY SENATE RACES SHUNNED
The reasons why these three good governors have
not been tapped for the U. S. Senate are similar in
one respect, All three governors may have their
eyes on senatorial races in 1952 or later. The gub
ernatorial terms of Stevenson and Shricker run un
til 1953. Lausche must run for a two-year ternr re
election this year. Otherwise, their situations differ
considerably,
Governor Lausche is frankly an admirer of Sen
ator Taft, and would not want to campaign against
him. Governor Lausche’'s frank statement at the
sovernors’ conference in White Sulphur Springs, W.
Va., that he had not made up his mind whether to
vote for Taft or Ferguson is an indication of this
nonpartisan admiration. But in 1952, Ohio’s Sena
tor John W. Bricker’s term as senator will expire.
And beating Bricker should be duck soup for
Lausche,
In Illinois, Governor Stevenson has just begun
his cleanup and reform program, For him to walk
out on thig job at this early stage would be a great
political mistake, Also, as long as Democratic Ma
jority Leader Scott Lucas wants to retain his seat,
it would create a nrajor party split to try to take it
away from him,
Bu there is no denying that Senator Lucas has not
been an unqualified success as majority leader in
the Senate, Smart political strategy for the Demo
crats might have been to pick a new and more popu
lar candidate. :
After this year’s race, Illinois will not elect an
other U. S. senator until 1954, when Democratic
Senator Paul Douglas’ present term expires. Sena~-
tor Douglas has been popular, and can probably
have renomination if he wants it.
DEMOCRATS SPLIT IN INDIANA
Both Governor Stevenson and Senator Douglas,
however, may be headed for even bigger things,
politically, Both men have been mentioned as vice
presidential material, and even as presidential nmra
terial in case President Truman should not be a
candidate in 1952. Governor Stevenson has been
mentioned as a possible secretary of state.
The Indiana senatorial picture is confusion com
pounded. Governor Schricker could have had the
Democratic senatorial nomination by a mere nod of
the head or a flick of the finger. But he told his
many friends and supporters not to present his
name to the Indiana Democratic convention,
Senator Capehart has a good chance to beat
Campbell. Senator Capehart could probably not
Leat Governor Schricker if he had to face him.
The indications are now that Governor Schrickel
has his eyes on 1952. Republican Senator William E.
Jenner wants to retire from the Senate and run for
governor of Indiana in 1952. He does not like Wash
ington, And in 1952, Schricker would be almost -
beatable, i

Statement of Principles Gives
Hope for Real GOP Program
Under the label, “Republican Advance,” a little
group of men meeting in Philadelphia shaped a
party document notable for its honesty, clarity and
lack of political bombast.
It deserves to be viewed as a major contribution
1o the long-overdue framing of a sound Republican
philosophy of government, tailored to modern needs.
The statement of principles notes that in the do
mestic realm the chief challenges of our time are
social, “They have given rise to certain goals that
are deeply desired by the people and are in fact es
sential to the preservation of freedom in an indus
trial society.”
These goals include old ‘age security, adequate
medical care, insurance against unemployment, im
proved housing, protection of labor’s rights, aid to
farmers, better education,
The Republican group observes, however, that
during its 17-year tenure.in the national govern
ment the Democratic Party has evolved but one
approach to all these problems—the unlimited ex- |
tension of government control of the people. i
In other words, wherever faced with a prime
social dilemma, the Democrats have almost auto
matically said, “Let Washington fix it.”
It is no secret that the Republicans regard this
philosophy as destructive of individual liberties.
They have been saying so for a long time.
But as the Republican Advance points out, the
GOP has been too slow to shape policies that are at
once capable of safeguarding individual freedoms
and answering the social needs of the times. In
their glamorous insistence on saving the individual,
they have seemed to ignore his basic wants.
The Advance believes there is solid footing for a
progressive Republican Party on new ground some
distance away from the old.
It cites as an example a GOP-sponsored health
bill which would place the primary burden on vol
untary efforts by the people themselves, with the
government asked only to encourage and promote
these mutual activities. It believes this plan opens |
a whole new vista for the solution of the nation’s
social problems without submerging the individual
in an anonymous nrass.
Four senators and 21 congressmen among the
GOP have hailed the new meanifesto as a powerful
declaration of party beliefs, It would be more accu
rate to say the “beliefs of one wing of the party,”
for the silence of many GOP leaders suggests their
disapproval or at least their apathy.
But if this statement is not to serve as a founda
tion stone in the building of a constructive Repub
licgn policy, then it would seem incumbent on the
silent party generals to come forward with some
thing equally forthright and hopeful, Nothing they
have produced so far meets that test.
.
Moscow Hits a New Low
One of Moscow’s cruelest jests is the propaganda
charge that the food and seed with which we helped
to sustain Russia as our ally in World War II was
impure.
The idea, say the propagandists, is that we de
liberately set out to infect Russia’s own food supply.
What this amounts to is a clainr that we engaged in
a sort of indirect germ warfare against our com
rades in arms at the very moment we both were
striving earnestly to crush Hitler,
No statement that has ever emanated from the
Kremlin is more despicable than this. It suggests
that Russia is bent upon convincing her people irre
vocably that Americans are their bitter enemies. It
suggests that Russia wants her citizens never again
to think well of us.
What use could this venom serve but that?
Surely we are but a step or two away fronr Soviet
claims that the tanks, guns and planes we sent to
Russia in wartime were defective and a positive
menace to their users. That ought to complete the
job of making a wartime ally seem an evil foe in
disguise.
Let us back up tough legislation and undiminished
policing with forthright and courageous journalism
to help eliminate the serious menace of the sex
criminals, — Edwin S. Friendly, president of the
American Newspaper Publishers' Association,
We are going to keep the Bill of Rights on the
books.-—President Truman,
The issue is clear and unequivocal—how far may
the fundamental human rights be exercised un
abridged without becoming the instrument of their
own destruction?—-General Douglas MacArthur, on
outlawing the Japanese Communist Party.
I believe that people everywhere in the world
wi'l join me in the desire and hope that the mem
ber governments will make renewed efforts to
gether on the first steps of a new program to win
real peace through the UN.—UN Secretary-General
Trygve Lie.
We hope that once Argentina is on her teet, civil
liberties, as we think of them, will be restored.—
Assistant Secretary of State Edward G. Miller, jr.
Action by the government is necessary at times to
help make the private enterprise system work.—
President Trumah.
Preventive war . . . could enly lead us and our
friznds into chavs and destruction.—General Omar
Bradley, chairman of U, S. Joint Chiefs of Staff,

Great Women Of The Bible: Ruth
By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D.
The significance of Ruth in the
records of the Bible is not always
grasped by those who read, and
admire, the story of that Moabi
tish woman’s loyalty and devo
tion to her Israelitish mother-in
law, in the book of the Bible that
bears her name,
The significance is brought out
in a passage in the New Testament
far removed from the ancient
story. There in the genealogy of
Jesus (Matthew 1), is the record
that Ruth was the mother of Obed,
the grandfather of King David. I
like to think that in the ancestry
of Jesus who belongs to the whole
world, was this Gentile Moabitish
woman, worthy in every respect
of the Christ who was to come cen~
turies later.
For Ruth was worthy of the
Christ, who gave His command
ments of love and who glorified
loyalty in human relationships.
The story is a simple one, even if
involved in elements of deep trag
edy, and it is the triumph emerg
ing out of tragedy that makes it a
story of such beauty.
Naomi, the Israelitish woman,
had gone with her husband and
two sons to the land of Moab, the
land across the Jordan from Pal
estine, where Moses had died in
sight of the Promised Land. Here
the family, fleeing famine, evi
dently found the food and pros
perity they had come seeking, for
the two sons took wives there.
Then tragedy came in the death of
the husband and father, followed
by the death of the two sons.
Left with only her two daugh
ters-in-law, Naomi turned long
ingly to her native land, where (e
--port said bread now was plentiful.
Her two daughters-in-law accom
panied her, despite Naomi's pro
tests that they remain in their na
tive land. When one daughter, Or
phah, finally agreed to return
home, Ruth embraced Naomi, ut
tering the famous words, “En
treat me not to leave thee—for
whither thou goest I will go. Vow=-
ing that “. . . Thy people shall be
my people, and thy God, my God,”
Ruth married a just man, Boaz,
and foraged in their fields for
grain left in the wake of the re
pers that she might feed her

mother-in-law.
Apart from all other details, and
Ruth’s place in the genealogy of
Jesus, it is a noble story of two
women in a relationship that is
not always so happy, even among
intelligent and educated women
from whom better things might be
expected.
The example of Ruth and Na
omi, and the teaching of the great
Teacher descended from Ruth,
ought to make it possible for wom
en to live in love and loyalty with
each other, even in circumstances
yvhere the situation may be try
ing.
