ly likely he would celebrate a simi¬
lar occasion 55 years hence.
A little macabre, I thought, but
no one seemed to take it that way
—least of all the fellow-citizen of
Dante who was enjoying himself
immensely over his cold smoked
turkey and doubtless became lyric
over the lira and other important
transalpine institutions before we
were through.
On the bearded one’s left was a
representative wlio of the state depart¬
ment gave me a disappointing¬
ly eye-witness and unsensational ac¬
count of the recent parliament ses¬
sion of one of our South American
neighbors—a session which I had
judged from previous dispatches,
would be punctuated by revolver
shots.
We had heard rumors of mys¬
terious shootings there which
were supposed to have made up
in political significance what
they lacked in marksmanship.
Also there had been hints of
cabinet changes due not only to
mistakes in policy, but to hasty
burials. I asked my fellow guest
about it.
“Oh, no,” he said, “there were no
cabinet changes.”
“But what about these terrible
rumors of graft and corruption?”
Well, the President in his ad¬
dress did make particular reference
to the evils of political corruption
and to the importance of selfless
loyalty on the part of the servants
of the state. tt
4 t But was that all?” I persisted.
“No names, addresses, or telephone
numbers?
That was all,” he insisted, “It
was a very quiet session. Further¬
more there was none of the proto¬
col we observe at a joint session of
the two houses of the American con¬
gress. This parliament was called
to order, the President came in,
spoke his piece, and went out. > >
At this point, my host broke
in. He insisted that I repeat the
story of the opening of this sum¬
mer’s special “turnip” session of
congress which nobody outside
of a few million radio listeners
who happened to be tuned in had
heard before.
Legislative Faux Pas,
De Luxe Style
This July 26 when a very angry
house of representatives was called
to order, it was known that the regu¬
lar chaplain could not appear. So,
when a stranger took the rostrum,
the less-somnolent members rose,
bowed their heads, as is the custom,
to listen to the prayer. The first
words they heard resounding
through the chamber were: “Where¬
as the public interest requires that
the congress of the United States
should be convened at 12 o’clock
noon on Monday, the twe'nty-sixth of
July, 1948, to receive such communi¬
cation as may be made by the Ex¬
ecutive; Now, therefore, I, Harry
S. Truman, President of the United
States . . .” and so on. . . .
Gradually the members real¬
ized that the man addressing
them was not the substitute for
the absent chaplain of the house,
but the substitute for the equal
ly-absent reading clerk whose
duty it is to read bills and offi¬
cial communications.
It was most embarrassing. The
voice they were hearing was not the
voice of a man repeating the word
of God; it was the voice of the sub¬
stitute clerk repeating the procla¬
mation of the man at whom they
were maddest. The members didn’t
like to make public admission of
tneir error by sitting down, and so
they had to stand through the pain¬
ful 114-word pronouncement which
had torn them from the bosom of
family and constituency, and brought
them back to heat-ridden Washing¬
ton.
Next to the , state ... department . offi
cial who had unwitttingly provided
the excuse for my anecdote was the

Doubt About Dulles
TT ISN’T being advertised, but Gov
*■ emor Dewey has received some
firm but friendly advice from high
up Republicans to think twice be¬
fore he appoints John Foster Dulles
as his secretary of state.
The opposition to Dulles is partly
on the ground that he is one of Wall
Street’s most prominent lawyers,
partly because of the disastrous role
Dulles played in selling the Ameri¬
can public on the now defaulted
German bonds prior to 1938 when
leading American economists were
warning that they would be worth¬
less paper.
One high-up Republican who re¬
cently cautioned Dewey about Dulles
was Sen. Styles Bridges Rep.,
N. H.), chairman of the powerful
senate appropriations committee.
Bridges raised a new objection,
namely Dulles’ recommendation of
Alger Hiss, alleged Communist, to
be chairman of the Carnegie Peace
Foundation.
The directors of the foundation,
Bridges recalled, were lukewarm
about Hiss but were pressured into
the appointment by Dulles.
Yes, he did make a mistake
on that one,” admitted Dewey.
it And he’s made too many mis¬
takes,” urged Senator Bridges.
“He made a terrible mistake
regarding the Nazis. We just
can’t afford to have a man as
secretary of state who makes
mistakes. The problem of peace
is too delicate.
Bridges also reminded Dewey that
Dulles might have difficulty in be¬
ing confirmed by the senate.
il We hope to give you a real ma¬
jority in the senate in November, tt
the New Hampshire senator ex¬
plained. “But we may be darn
lucky to keep what we’ve got. If
so, and if only two or three Re¬
publicans oppose Dulles, then the
Democrats will jump in en masse
to fight his confirmation. They’ll
love it. »»
Dewey countered that Foreign
Minister Molotov liked Dulles, and
that ironing out our Russian prob¬
lems was all important. 11
a He’s the only man in Ameri¬
ca who can get along with Molo¬
tov,” Dewey told Bridges.
H And, I suppose,” quipped Bridges,
«( that Molotov is a good Republican
and wants us to win in Nbvember. H
In Praise of Bradley
If war should come to beleaguered
Berlin, the men at the top of the
U. S. army today are among the
most competent, human, and civili¬
an-minded that this newsman has
seen around the war department in
many a year.
This appraisal, by the way, comes
from a long-time and vigorous critic
of the brass hats.
Responsible for this new deal
around the Pentagon building
are General Eisenhower and his
successor, modest Omar Brad¬
ley.
It is important for the American
public to know that when the dare¬
devil boys of the air forces and the
drop-the-bomb-now men of the navy
gather at joint chiefs of staff meet¬
ings, there is always present one
calm conscience who never forgets
the 300,000 G. I.s buried under white
crosses from Guadalcanal to Sicily.
Take off his uniform and Omar
Bradley looks like a college profes¬
sor. He is quiet, gracious, gener¬
ous, good natured and basically a
very plain person. Everybody who
ever worked with Bradley remarks
on his simplicity. His mess ser¬
geant in France had orders never
to use Bradley’s name to wangle
food for headquarters. Once during
the historic landing at Normandy,
Bradley, then a three-star general,
took off his fleece-lined jacket and
handed it to a shivering corporal.
“Here, son,” he said. “It will
be easier for me to get another
than it will be for you. tt
Spunky Mr. Truman
Spunky Harry Truman isn’t being
discouraged by the Roper poll which
concedes him no chance to win.
Talking to the District of Columbia
Truman-Barkley committee the oth¬
er day, he declared:
< i We won’t lose this campaign for
lack of hard work. I intend to make
more public appearances and wage
the most strenuous campaign any
president has ever attempted. I’m
not only going to mak<? radio appeals
to the man in the street—I’m going
to rub shoulders with him. »»
His chief worry, the President con¬
fided, was the possibility of a light
vote.
ii We’U need a heavy vote and
I’m going out to get it if I have
to punch doorbells,” the Presi¬
dent said. “If every Demo¬
j | cratic precinct committeeman operates
throughout the country
on that theory, we’ll be all
right. tf

ily, had outlived the Japanese oc¬
cupation, and with his sister, had
participated in the effective Philip¬
pine underground, memories of
which made this day’s current trag¬
edy of the Philippines—the eruption
of Hibokhibok volcano on Camiquin
island—a decidedly minor concern.
On my left was a prominent Wash¬
ington lawyer. During a lull in The
discussion of international, if not
cosmic affairs, he suddenly asked:
(* What was your mother’s maiden
name?
< < Alice Blood,” I replied.
« Yes,” he nodded in satisfac¬
tion, “My aunt, Clara Brown,
often told me about your moth¬
er. They were classmates (Ing¬
ham university ’78), and she was
a bridesmaid at your mother’s
wedding in La Salle, niinois. ft
Skipping your correspondent
around the table, we arrive at a
famous scientist. We exchanged
reminiscences too, for he also was
a graduate of the same college. As
we talked, I remembered an anec¬
dote about him I had heard from a
mutual college friend.
A Check by Any
Other Name . . .
Not many years after his gradua¬
tion, this scientist and his young
wife arrived in the city where our
mutual friend was in business, and
called on him. The businessman
recognized the scientist’s face im¬
mediately but for the life of him
couldn’t remember the man’s name.
During their lunch, the scientist
remarked that he was going on an
extended trip into Canada and had
unfortunately run out of money. He
wondered could he get a check
cashed at the businessman’s bank.
The businessman gladly acquiesced,
thinking that when he saw the sig¬
nature on the check, he would rec¬
ognize the scientist’s name. Togeth¬
er they went to the bank, the scien¬
tist wrote the check, and the two
men went to the cashier’s window-.
But as the scientist handed in thfe
check, all the businessman could
read was the name of a bank in a
very distant city and the amount
five hundred dollars.
He had already said to the cash¬
ier, “I want you to meet my friend
. . .*’ but could get no further. Ter¬
ribly embarrassed, he turned to the
scientist and said: “I’m sorry, but
I can’t recall your name.
Of course the cashier over¬
heard this remark and with the
natural caution of the banker,
said to the businessman: “This
will be fine, Mr. X, but will you
please endorse this?” Mr. X
turned it over, noted the name
but did not recognize it, trem¬
bled to think of what would hap¬
pen to his bank account if it
bounced (and he was sure it
would), and signed. Farewells
were spoken, the scientist de¬
parted. Day after day the busi¬
nessman awaited the call from
the bank.
In fact, he told me he had picked
out a space on the wall where he
intended to frame the paper so that
he could call attention to it casu¬
ally should some other vaguely
identified caller request a similar
favor.
Nothing happened.
A month or so later, another col¬
lege friend came to town. The busi¬
nessman related the story, describ¬
ing the scientist and his occupation.
Unaccountably his listener burst
into laughter.
a Didn’t you know,” he said be¬
tween gasps, “That man’s tech¬
nical as well as scientific infor¬
mation which he acquired at
school along with his Ars Mag
ister made him a cool million
the year after he was gradu¬
ated? 5»
At the luncheon there was also
Chinese oil expert who merely lis¬
tened and an ERP representative
who left early.
And now back to my red-headed
host. He related the adventure of
one of the guests who had been un
able to appear. It seems this gen¬
tleman had formed a corporation
called “World Development, Inc. a
or something very similar. When
my host heard his glowing pros¬
pectus, he said, t < Aren’t you cover
ing a lot of ground. 5 7
“Oh, no,” said the promoter who
since had acquired considerable in
fluence in international affairs,
“this is just a subsidiary of the ln
ter-Planetary corporation. ’ i
